Masto pets: cute af, hilarious, fetching, smart.

My pets: exploding alimentary canals thinly wrapped in greasy velvet and indifference.

Cat, 11:29: if you ever stop touching me I may kill and eat you, we are fam. Purr, strop, purr, headbutt.

Cat, 11:31: played. out.

2200 words added today to the Big Report for Workplace. Probly 1000 more needed, about Things.

I adult like good.

The American Goldfinches have rediscovered our front-yard feeder! Also, the Robins (after a two-year absence) are nesting again on our front-porch light fixture.

We're close enough to Main Street that traffic noise is pretty steady, so it's important to me that we've also got as much bird song as we can scare up. And anyway, the American Goldfinch is just _pretty_. #birding

"Squirrel Girl" comics: I'm not yet familiar, and I'd like to dive in a bit. I seem to like people who like Squirrel Girl.

Does anyone recommend a particular run or writer? Which/who, and briefly why? Or could I start anywhere? Thanks!

me: Ugh, I've got hundreds of old projects composed as outlines in .opml! I wish I could archive them as plain text in a lightweight markup language.

pandoc: It's cool, babe.

me: Never let me go, pandoc.

The Big Report is due Monday at work. You know what that means. Expect a lot of clean laundry and a well-organized kitchen.

Federation is fun & useful. I'm kept young wondering "Huh I thought I already followed that person well maybe that was them-on-another-instance or maybe I'm LOSING MY MIND."

When I teach martial arts to school-aged children, I love giving them a place where they're expected to yell and hit. But even by kindergarten, many girls have been taught that they must never yell, and they don't want to. It's a little heartbreaking that they've been silenced so effectively already. But it's also hugely rewarding to work with them over time, until they are eager to YELL, hit, kick, and defend their bodies.

I really like #amaroq's Translate Text feature. @eurasierboy

Sometime in the night I woke with the "No but just saying if I _did_ have a fursona what would it be like" thoughts.

Happy now?

good morning

It'd be great to have a catch phrase, but how to ever top "It's clobberin' time!"?
