My cat is, in fact, the best. I laid down on the bed prior to jumping in the shower (a rookie mistake) and now she’s put a paw on me and is intermittently purring about it

My new funny, educational picture book THERE ARE NO ANTS IN THIS BOOK is out today through Tundra, with art by Anna Pirolli. I love this one. I think it's genuinely funny, and it's full of strange real ant species. Thank you to the great @alexwild.bsky.social for reading over an early version.

I am doing this thing, not least because I have an official for reals job offer

Oh it’s so cute!

I’m going for it. :D

I’m reading in a park. I already went to a cafe today. I’m getting hungry. Do I do the responsible thing and head home or the irresponsible thing and go to happy hour someplace nearby first

for brewing concentrate? i take a quart jar, put 100g ground coffee in it, and add water to fill the jar (ends up about 1:7 ratio); stir thoroughly; put in the fridge overnight, filter through a coffee filter the next day, bam! :)

Cold brew concentrate + a little brown sugar ginger syrup + milk = delicious #beveragePosting
