@Rontuner Have you visited the Raqib Shaw Paradise Lost exhibit at the Art Institute? It’s stunning.

I agree, your neighborhood is fanastic for culture and recreation.

Gender-affirming care!

Allons enfants de la patrie, le jour de gloire est arrivé!

And I love La Vie en Rose. I always sing it as “tu” rather than “il”. More personal!

@Axtremus I’d do that, too

@AndyD I think it has to do with how hot you heat the milk for the latte.

The counterperson in NYC didn’t want to admit she didn’t know what tepid was, so she kept saying, “short nonfat latte?” and I kept saying “short tepid nonfat latte.” I finally gave up and said, “not too hot.”

I don’t make shorts, although I think one of my super short videos was counted as a short. It was just the groovy sidewalk in Alicante, Spain. But mainly my videos are knitting tutorials, and longer than a short.

So sorry they’re surprised.

Short tepid nonfat latte used to be my SBUX order of choice. I tried that in NYC and the young woman behind the counter didn’t know what tepid meant.

@Bernard I had already changed my options to not having people use my pictures for remixing. But my stuff is definitely shareable, so dyers/knitters can repost them. That’s biz!

And now they’ve suspended it already. good

Blueberries, raspberries, and the yellow plums are now ripe in a friend’s yard. There will be JAM.

I’ve only felt two earthquakes, both minor. Once in February 2001 (9.5 in Seattle, felt in Portland), and once on the Big Island of Hawaii, in December 2013 (3.2 off the Kona coast). Interesting!

Can’t see your picture?

I wonder if it’s safer than Deet. Probably?
