Eric the caterpillar is missing. I saw him this morning but I can't find him in the planter anymore.
I read online that his species of caterpillar will move very far from their food source when they're ready to enter the chrysalis stage so they're safer from predators. I hope that's what's happened

Meet Eric.
Eric is a caterpillar that showed up on our celery plant a couple weeks ago.
We are now very devoted to Eric and check on him many times a day.
During the storm this weekend we were afraid Eric got smushed but it turns out he was fine.
Enjoy this picture of him eating a leaf.

@tkingfisher.com During this year's Romancing The Vote auction, I put up my services of writing a song parody. The winner asked me to write a song about potatoes.
A friend suggested you might find my work interesting as well so here is a link to the doc. Enjoy!

That trans moment where you look at the wardrobe you've built up over four years of transition and barely like any of it anymore.

Sometimes I wonder if there's still value in being on social media platforms and then I'll have a night like tonight where I was talking bagels and baking and mixers with @mostlybree.kitrocha.com and @ryeisenberg.bsky.social and I'm confident the answer is yes.

I'm at a lodge in Minnesota right now and I just witnessed a bunch of guys dressed like "bros on vacation" following a guy dressed like a priest (black robe with collar) across the main lawn....into the ice cream shop.
I am so curious what is going on there

I'm pretty sure the answer to this is "no", but does anyone happen to have a lot of cash lying around they don't know what to do with? An inclusive Jewish org I'm a part of could use a cash infusion so we can guarantee regular services.

I was today years old when I realized the name of the painting in the #Leverage Season 5 episode "The Frame Up Job" was Ma Mystére and not, as I had assumed, Mama's Stare.

Apparently transfeminine entered the dictionary in my birth year of 1985 which seems apt.

Listening to the Newark airport ground ATC. A pilot just said "I'm keeping a positive mental attitude" about the weather and the ATC guy just said "well that makes one of us".

We're up to seven. This weekend is gonna absolutely suck.
So it looks like I've cried four times in the last couple days now? New record!
(For context, Saturday is the fourth anniversary of my mom's passing and yesterday was the 12th anniversary of my grandfather's passing. It's a very emotional few days)
