Yes I enjoyed it! I’d like to read it on the page when I get a chance but Jenny Sterlin does a great job IMO.

i (5’2”) used to have a roommate who was 6’2” and for a while i couldn’t find my casserole dish. turns out she thought it was hers and she’d stored it on top of the cupboards where she keeps the rest of her stuff she doesn’t use often and i was like β€œthere’s been stuff up there this WHOLE TIME??”

HEY just wanna say I tend to complain online more than I do in real life because it's kinda like sucking the poison out so it can't fester inside me, and I don't want to annoy my family to death. But the world is beautiful and people are generally good and there is lots to love! Don't forget!

this is far from a new sentiment, but i think the way we consume art now really hinders our appreciation of it and it’s such a shame sometimes. your choices and improvements become obvious with a bit of inspection but i get why people would prefer the high-contrast one on a quick scroll by.

If it makes you feel better, I actually do prefer the new one! The lines and colours feel significantly more deliberate and cohesive. That sucks when that happens though, I'm sorry. My artist brain definitely knows what's what, but it can be hard to reconcile craftsperson eyes with layperson eyes.

Just wanted to give a shoutout to all the bird and nature photographers I follow. Not only are your photos fantastic but it’s so nice to have a space where if I’m feeling a bit glum, I can just open an app and BAM! There’s a picture of a good little guy! You rule, keep on doing what you do!

recipes for clam frappe were all over the newspapers at the turn of the 20th century, then popped up starting about 1913 and again in the 30s to clarify: you're freezing the broth to a mush like a granita, NOT the clams themselves it was billed as an invalid food or just a nice start to luncheon!
