Good question, tree. Good question.

Apparently the mall Santa regretted saying to my 10 year old nephew, “so I hear you like aeroplanes”, today about 5 minutes into the retelling of his MH370 theory.

Well...up and running at 6am this morning and I made my first pot of coffee with the bag of beans that I ran through my new grinder...very nice coffee but I think I'll keep them for a treat...after all, I bought a 45 ounce can of ground coffee this week that needs to be used....I still can't believe I bought 150 bucks worth of stuff that I wanted instead of needed this week...and that went against how I do things...but damn, the Fiskars shrub shears are just gorgeous...good morning!

I had a parcel I was waiting for yesterday and was really annoyed to find it just sitting on the lawn with no delivery notification. It was barely visible from the house as it's down a bit of a dip and we might have missed it.
I was going to complain to the delivery company... Then I saw the proof of delivery photograph I eventually got. Explains everything.

Happy Saturday everyone!

Good evening Squirrel Fans.

Albert, DEATH’s butler, valet & all round handy man, is masquerading as a, somewhat disreputable elf while his master is standing in for the Hogfather. They are currently in the Hogfather’s sleigh.

I must say that I may get the Squirrel Expeditionary Force to adopt this phrase as their battle cry, so much more genteel than “Gizz yer nuts yer scunner!!” Which seems to be the one they currently employ!

“Albert spat over the side of the sleigh. “Hah! ‘Wouldn’t It Be Nice If Everyone Was Nice,’ eh?” THERE ARE WORSE BATTLE CRIES.”
― Terry Pratchett, Hogfather

Where ever you are in your day I hope you’re enjoying it! 😊🫶🐿️🖖

Bad news gets our attention because it triggers the “fight or flight” response in our animal brains.

But if you don’t pay attention to good news and act upon it, you won’t reap the potential rewards either.

And inaction on good news is its own bad news.

#kungfusat Is it over? Please let it be over!

In "They Will Beat the Memory Out of Us," author Peter Gelderloos argues that a failure to learn from, and remember, our history is a primary impediment to liberatory movements. "Many of us have come to expect that each new generation will grow up unaware of the struggles that preceded them, having to make all the same mistakes and to learn similar versions of the same lessons. But what if it doesn’t have to be that way?"

Radical history-keeping is one of the interventions that a bookspace like Firestorm participates in, and this year our community read a multitude of movement histories, revolutionary memoirs, and collected reflections. We didn't just read—past and present members of our collective also contributed to the work of documenting our shared experiences, as in "Books Through Bars" and "Constellations of Care," two new collections created by and for movement participants. In other cases, we gathered together with neighbors to read and discuss, a practice of collective digestion exemplified by the six weeks we spent with Solnit's "A Paradise Built In Hell" after Hurricane Helene (a backlist title that sold faster than we could replace it for months, resulting in widespread book sharing and the unmonetized circulation of photocopied chapters).

Of course, we were also reading novels! Despite some misconceptions, Firestorm is principally a collective of fiction readers, with tastes that skew toward the delightful and unsophisticated. And while our community sometimes surpasses us, we saw a continuing surge of interest in horror, with many of our best sellers bridging the terror of the supernatural and the horror of existing on the margins of capitalist and colonial states. Finally, we'd be remiss not to shout out Margaret Killjoy's "The Sapling Cage," a witchy YA novel that sold four times more copies than any title at our store, in a few short months becoming our second bestselling novel of all time 🤯

Out a couple of evenings ago, and walking through the cemetery I encounter my other friend, Mr Black Cat. He’s fairly tame for a stray, and ate some kibble as long as I kept a respectable distance away. Unfortunately he’d left when I got back from the shop and missed out on a proper meal.

The red and green in this dahlia photo seem to go along with the Christmas season.

I wonder if I have any photos of blue and white ones for Chanukah. I'll need to look!

Musk worshipper, Wilders superfan and AfD sympathizer commits an extreme-right act of terror, one day after Musk’s call to action. A, sadly, all too comon example of stochastic nazi terrorism.

Journos: “HE’S A SAUDI!!!!”

Do. Better.
