I don't post much of my private life anywhere, but if there's anywhere that I feel safe, it's right here. This is my daughter, who was diagnosed with triple positive breast cancer earlier this year. No cancer is good, but if you're going to get beat cancer, this is the one to get. Very manageable, especially if caught early like hers was. Chemo took her hair, so I shaved mine off in solidarity. She's been doing really well. The chemo hasn't made her very sick, just a loss of energy the past few treatments. The tumor was small to begin with, and it's already shrink to less than half its original size. One more month of biweekly treatments, then they'll reevaluate and operate if necessary. As you can see, she's taking it very well.

I still miss the big lever but I do like the new thing that shows you your actual paper ballot in the confirmation step.

i'm pretty sure my Dad wrote me this after he confronted me about my drinking. i hope he can see me now.

I just won this trophy with a little witch on it, and some money competing with 36 people in an eight ball tournament where we had to use broomsticks instead of cues :)

If you zoom in on the easel, you might see a surprise. Also, the postcards next to it are from my favorite solo board game, Final Girl. Couldn't resist.

Because why not....?

She loves birding. And I love being in the outdoors and her, not necessarily in that order.

Fox: Why are you here this morning?

Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

I swear to the deities there better not be a third this week. Chekov, Picard...

This one hurts a bit. One of the special ones.

It's their 50th anniversary and now everyone feels old, right? Fantastic show, and last chance to see them, as it is their final tour in North America.

Picard's second passion was archaeology. Not many people know that.

I'm not much for celebrity worship but I grew up watching Star Trek: The Next Generation with my dad. Like my father, the character of Picard was the kind of guy I aspire to be. I'm wrecked over this news.

I channeled some Mad Magazine inspiration for this years pumpkin ala Don Martin.

Hooray for early voting!

but I thought this was good.
