Just in time for Halloween season, a beautiful graveyard kitty. #CatsOfBluesky

Well I liked it, and I’m not… normally a fan of musicals. #Hadestown #MusicalTheatre#JustInventingHashtagsAtThisPoint

Outside of a west end theatre. A billboard for Hadestown is in lights.

Pushing the limits of my love of travel with a 9 hour flight and killer jet lag.

The Death of Cathy

A machine monitors an elderly Cathy's heartbeat. She thinks "I'm dying. I can feel it all slip away. And I know what comes next. Chemicals will flood my brain and wreak havoc with my memories. I will live my final moments in fantasy. But it's not a fantasy.

Because everything that we are can be reduced to just that... chemicals and memories. SO this is all really happening... This IS reality. My family. My friends. My love.

They're all here. They are safe. THey are loved. And they love me. And that is the comedy of it all. We are all granted acces to the kingdom of heaven. All hopes fulfilled. All sins forgiven. Because that is the tender mercy of whatever force created us.

We are built to know the eternal and for that eternity to feel like no time at all. Cathy fades into space. The blackness of the cosmos reflected in her dying eyes. She cries. She closes her eyes, says "ack' and gently passes into oblivion.

This MAGA-wearing "white power"-gesturing motherfucker is Angelo Isadoro, the executive director of the BC Conservatives. If you vote for John Rustad & the BC Conservatives, you're voting for this motherfucker & his hateful agenda too. Vote NDP. David Eby is NOT John Horgan.

I also get stronger and feistier with every bite of banh mi

A sign in a window that reads:

ATTENTION!
PLEASE do not feed the magpies.

With every bite of banh mi they grow stronger & feistier.

They keep breaking into the store and they are getting harder and harder to chase out

I don’t want to live in Alfred Hitchcock’s Bird movie, if possible

i’m not sure that’s the story here tbh

a push notification from the associated press that says “Lebanon explosions - Pager explosions in Lebanon this week became graphic reminders of how intimately some people still hold the often-forgotten devices.”

Moonrise over the Salish Sea tonight here in Victoria, BC.

With the new book coming out, I've been thinking about a rewatch of Lost. I also like reading along with the old AV Club reviews, but the old comments have been recently wiped out. Disqus still has the pre-Kinja comments archived and with some API work I was able to get a list. A mega-thread: 🧵
