Nice

Oh I need to find these.

Look, they have Iowa activities! I wonder if they are like, a corn shucking contest

The Mountain Goats & Mary Chapin Carpenter Share New Covers: Listen Here’s a combination I never expected to see. Country-folk star Mary Chapin Carpenter was been making stately, pretty music since 1987. In the ’90s, she sold millions and won a bunch of Grammys. She w...

Mary Chapin Carpenter and @themountaingoats.bsky.social team up on two new tracks

"do not speak the old magic to me, I was there when it was written"

Being sick sounds like The Price is Right and tastes like diet 7-up and premium saltines.

I always watched a bad Sci-Fi mini series that I couldn't remember the name of until reddit found it: Earth*Star Voyager.

An empty Bò Né plate, which looks like a cow. It's mostly empty.

Had Bò Né for the first time today. I had absolutely no idea how to approach it, so I ended up making a weird sandwich for part of it. Dipping is probably the better approach. 😅

Many small hexagonal biscuits on a pink plate.

Yesterday was biscuits day again! I'm trying to play a little with the recipes that I've been using. The ratios on this batch went a little dry as well, but that might be down to the sourdough discard being a bit under hydrated. #MarieBakes #BreakfastBakes

Pancakes on a pink plate.

Catching up from Monday, I tried to make corn pancakes by replacing some flour with some corn in the normal sourdough recipe but it only kind of worked. They came out a little dry as well, but well received. #MarieBakes #BreakfastBake

This Movie Sucks YouTube video by Durry - Topic

I've been living life like it's a movie I don't wanna watch
Can we just cut right to the montage?

Better Off Ted warned us about our current tech environment in so many ways, but perhaps none more on the nose than

Expecting @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social to know whether this is actually ethical or not.

Nancy by Ernie Bushmiller. First panel, Nancy talking to a logger sawing a tree and pointing to a carved piece of trunk. Nancy: Can I have that piece? My boy friend carved it. Logger: Sure. Second panel, Nancy is watching the log burn in the fire place. Nancy: I'm mad at him.

Every once in awhile I think about this Nancy comic and it makes me laugh every single time. Absolute perfection.

Today's calm was a duck on an inlet of the Narragansett Bay while we walked along probably the only plowed bike path in the state.

"Survival of the fittest Max, and we've got the fucking gun!"

Looks wonderful. 😺

"listen to your body"

my body: "if we had five liters of carbonated water that would be amazing"

How long would they have had to be running the equipment though? And how many truck-fillers do they have? I have seen other things filling them but it still feels unlikely. Maybe 5 digits but 20k?

A boardgame with an extremely complex game state, with many ships sitting on planets in space, and a number of players with boards showing various techs etc.

Corinne Bailey Rae on stage at the Uptown. The lights are purple and she is singing with an accompaniment on guitar and synth and a backup singer

Today's fun things:
- Twilight Imperium 4 with 6, which was wildly as fun as I imagined but I had to leave after only 8.5 hours of playing unfortunately to see
- Corinne Bailey Rae at the Uptown

This album was half of my high school life. One of the few CDs that I listened to until it broke..

You don't have to sing it right
Who could call you wrong?
You put your emptiness to melody
Your awful heart to song
You don't have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong
At best, you find a little remedy, at worst the world will sing along

Would be great if they told people in neighboring cities as well. Your skeet is what let me know it was continuing in effect tonight 😭❄️

Biscuits that are slightly yellow and on a plate. There large and flaky.

The same biscuits, partially split open and showing the inside flakyness.

It's Wednesday so it's biscuits day. Today's are more savory than normal, garlic cheddar biscuits. The flecks are black pepper which gives a little kick. These were good, maybe I'll adjust a bit. #MarieBakes #BreakfastBake

A pile of waffles perilously on a plate, piled high.

A window that is just covered in snow. Snow from bottom to top.

What to bake on a Monday morning when there's many feet of blowing snow outside?

Waffles.
(with egg, coffee, and bacon)

The hattens have been reasonably battened here in our home. We went to our last fun event (cheese and wine dinner with our most local cheesemonger) and are prepped for wind and snow 🌨️❄️

I like travle a lot but it's because I get it wrong a bunch and end up actually learning geography better 😅

Three way friendship hijinks fits both of those properties perfectly though.
