Sourdough batard

STILL BAKING. Interested to try this, we delayed our trip to the UP to visit friends by one day so I gave this bad boy a super long fridge ferment. Will it taste different? Better? Is it overproofed? WHO KNOWS!
@wombatman70 40 miles west of the bridge : Naubinway. Our friends have a beautiful little modern summer house right at the northernmost point of Lake Michigan
I'm headed to MI tomorrow for family vacation after not having been there for a few years. Super excited!!! Not getting up to the Yoop, but I'm going to be quite happy with time spent next to Sleeping Bear.
I have been feeding my sourdough starter every week or two for quite a long time as I've been too busy and it's been way too hot to bake. Looking forward to getting some loaves going in the Fall again.

Enormous cat curled up licking the globe to make it spin
Oh god, the giant space-cat has reversed Earth's rotation!
The sun now rises in the West and sets in the East!

A panel from the 1974 Marvel Comics 'Captain America and the Falcon' story arc "Secret Empire." A hooded figure with the number 13 on their hood stands in a doorway and announces: "Greetings. I represent the Secret Empire!"
Oh yeah? Which one?
Eclipse
alt text
Photo of the moon blocking the sun. It is a ring of fire surrounded by darkness.
We got to see the total solar eclipse in Burgos, Spain. It was an awesome sight. A friend of ours in the US is from Burgos and has been trying to get us to go to Spain in the summer when she and her family travel back. This was the year.
I wish I had better photography equipment, but here's a crappy phone photo.

That's a pretty good phone capture IMO.

a tall man dressed in black with a dark hat and face covering stands in a cobbled street holding a wooden sign.
Written on the sign, and giving off considerable smoke, are the burning words
"you're not alone"

Sorry for your loss, even one that's so far gone. It's a striking photo and now I'm curious to learn more about Paul's artwork
Randomly, my friend Naeem was in that exhibition in the source link.

To live in hearts that love is not to die.
@dphiffer some of Paul's work is still out there, but the online exhibits have mostly fallen away. A lot of non-theist questioning (both his adoptive parents were missionaries, and Paul spent a couple of years in Cairo with them), and some of the work is dark, but more is funny and silly. His widow also teaches art at college level, and she's been curating a lot of his work over the years.

Dream (1935) by M.C. Escher
One of my fav pieces by Escher
One of my fav pieces by Escher
A friend lives near Montreal and sent a bunch of photos of his woodcut prints on exhibit at the museum there. I was quite impressed by his body of work!
@snowbow If you're ever in the Netherlands make sure to go to The Hague and visit the museum 'Escher in the palace'
https://escherinhetpaleis.nl/en
Beautiful building, tons of original prints. Also The Hague itself ain't half bad. (And send me a dm and I'll join you)

I’m in Montreal! (And don’t particularly like MC Escher.) But this praying mantis is a monastery is cool.

Wolfvane : the not so big unit
alt text
Spotted the Wolfvane notification on google maps and decided to investigate (It's near the town of Newman in Western Australia)
Turns out its a weather vane with a wolfs head, name does not lie.
Just needs a toilet, is quite mystical, does not require a reservation.
It gets 4 out of 5 stars on google reviews. The reviews are great..
Joe
The Wolfvane is sublime. A pillar of solitude. The foundations seem to be sagging a bit and may need underpinning so that the Wolfvane can properly swing in the breeze. But is that its actual purpose? Maybe.
Looking forward to the toilet facilities and perhaps an information plaque.

My partner really wanted to take us here, I was doubtful, thinking it was another one of his hairbrained ideas….boy was I wrong!! What a place, it’s so much more than a weather vane. The wolf sees you, and you can see yourself in it. Truly magical. Visit and become one with the wolfvane, you will walk back the 20m to your vehicle a changed person.

Certainly a highlight of the journey, searching for and locating the famed and yet mysterious “wolfvane”. Ground was a bit soggy from recent downpours and the wolf was listing a tad to the north... Who put it there? What was the purpose? I understand there was military base at that location and this is all that remains!? Unfortunately no toilet facilities are available. Coming soon apparently. It was nice to visit, to sit and ponder.....tranquil. Peace out.

Had one day off drove 2hrs just to see this. Did not disappoint. Well worth the drive. Will be a regular stop anytime I'm driving though Newman. Just remember no toilet facilities which is a little disappointing. But still worth the trip 100%. 10out of 10

I felt the same way about Carhenge in Nebraska.
...but are there toilets at Carhenge?
everything is a toilet if you're brave enough

Doc Ostich's Flying Caduceus

a long, low red and black speed record car, looking more like a jet fighter without wings
the first jet-powered speed record attempt car, built for Dr Nathan Ostich.

(that dude's name: so many autocorrect flightless birds)

The name of this car suddenly popped into my head when I was reading this - ‘At any moment I might fade out’: archives reveal fearless era of land speed record breakers | Motor sport | The Guardian — https://www.theguardian.com/sport... - as I remember it being mentioned as a footnote in a book I read decades ago.
Seems to be a couple snakes and a couple wings shy of a proper flying caduceus. But then he'd have snakes on a plane so maybe he'd just had it with those motherfucking snakes on his motherfucking plane. And kept the name anyway.
Did not buy...
