Michael Myers🔪the 1st shape
#Ghibli storytelling is *gorgeous*

I grew up in Chicago’s far Western ‘burbs. I’m a leading edge Gen X feral latchkey kid. Married. Mostly harmless. I block jagbags.
We called them gym shoes. For reasons.

Fall is the season on the lakefront in Barrie, Ontario. A photographer in a yellow jacket sits under a reddish dynamic sculpture. New construction is visible in the background. Blue sky with scattered white clouds. The lake is reflecting the blue sky.

Toots disappear like tears in the rain. Some faster than others.

I see the subliminal advertising here as “why aren’t I enjoying a cold brew?” 😂
To each their own of course.

I envy you that cool ocean breeze. The one here is hot hot hot. The river beach is so packed I noped right out of there without so much as dipping my toes.

Jamie Dimon, for example, should still be rotting in jail.

There is another poll* choosing your favorite of 80’s animated movies. But there was no room for Studio Ghibli. So I ask you, casual reader, what’s your favorite Ghibli production from the 80’s?
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind predates the formation of Studio Ghibli, but all the major players are there.

You know how deeply unserious the government is when they send these two. But it will probably allow for some nice insider trading come Monday.

A good read.
Goodness me! The Church has had a terrible far-right wing problem for over a century. The Pope’s very own Praetorian Guard.
This shit stinks to high heaven. Always did.

They want an idiocracy where words and facts mean what the oligarchs say they mean. It dovetails nicely with Christian Nationalism.

This is of course wonderful news, but remember, Republicans and the DOGE crew cancelled 22 mRNA research projects worth $500 million. These discoveries will be fewer and farther between in the States.

The forecast for my current residence in Portugal and my former one in far Northern Il. Definitely a strong El Niño this year.

These bots are also not leaving their follow/followers lists open anymore. It made it easier to run down the lists and report them.

Let’s be honest, not every vamp can afford a luxurious silk lined coffin. It’s reasonable that some of them only get a comfy jacket to rest in, right? ;)
