New cat just dropped
alt text
Against a black background, a small spotted cat with large eyes and rounded ears stares directly at the camera. It looks fierce, or at least as fierce as a three-pound cat can.

And it's already mad at you
Well yes because I've never fed them
late to the party but 'probably because of something you did'

A skeet by John Scalzi (@scalzi.com) posted Sep 22, 2026:
Look goddamnit
It's entirely possible
To eat a plum
And not make a poem about it
The one I just ate
Wasn't even in the
Goddamn refrigerator
Or anything
Sometimes a plum
Is just a plum
You can just eat it
And go on with your life
WHAT
Why are you looking at me
What'd I do now
(looks) oh GODDAMNIT

I remember in college, we read a book about Williams. His widow recounted unannounced visits by young and aspiring poets. I think Allen Ginsburg was one of these, at one time. Williams would let them in, read their verse, maybe offer a little advice. He was kind to them, but sometimes, when he had gotten rid of one, he would say: "The darned fool".

eleven shiny green-blue Emu eggs in a nest - bed of leaves on a forest floor
A batch of Emu eggs in the Marrinup State Forest, south of Perth. Discovered during an archaeological survey we were doing in there. Dad would have been lurking around somewhere but wasn't seen. Mum shot through a while ago, as is the Emu way.
That’d be a big carton.
I’d ask how the omelette tasted but I imagine there’s some massively Aussie curse around consuming those things and one just doesn’t.
@MackReed They’re mostly like enormous duck eggs. The only emu-based curse we have is more… general purpose. https://youtu.be/UL5cA4-z...

This all started when the Silverhawks theme song described them as "Partly metal, partly real" thus bringing into question if metal is real or not.
When I worked at a live Butterfly exhibit, I would routinely get asked if the pupae/chrysalises, sometimes even while they were twitching, were real. I routinely said no, and that our CGI budget was incredibly generous.
Happy Dolly week, y’all!

What looks like a giant steel long, triangular shape, with many windows on the one side. It is perked on the very edge of a large mountain, with a sheer drop next to it.

The Movie That Captured Light That No Longer Exists

The film is Barry Lyndon.
Do you know photography? Like, the technical side? You may appreciate this!

Does @cowboycoffee come around here these days?
I have a directory of screen captures of Barry Lyndon.
A lot of scenes are that beautiful.
The only other movie that I did that with is the soviet War & Peace

Post them somewhere Joost! Haven't seen the movie in decades ... although I was just reminded of it in some show (Rooster maybe?).
Deviled Emu Egg
alt text
Lol there was someone on Flickr years ago who cooked a Rhea egg, I think poached, and it took like 45 minutes or something. It looked absolutely disgusting.
CRIKEY!!!
God: I can make a deviled egg so good, you can only eat one.
Me: Bring it.
God: *Offers this*
Me: *dies of heart attack with creamy egg on my face*
God: Got 'im.
Me: Bring it.

local friend had a "my house is turning 200" party and the snack table was off the chain
alt text
an impressively long table absolutely full of cookies and cakes and little numnums of all description. It is under a tent and the sun is shining. People are eating numnums
An older friend of mine had a big party nominally about her house's bicentennial but really just to hang out and eat indecent amounts of snacks. I showed up two hours into a three hour party and this was "all" that was left. 😂 House is in the background, it's a nice house. This lady calls me whenever she needs to update her email signature file.
Oh you Eaterners! I brag about my 150 year old house out here in the Rockies but 200... for America, dang! That's purdy old.
I am loving the sense of community in this pic.
Oh, I'll have the whole little orange topped cake! Wonderous!
Never really heard of cluster flys...

Saved to T-shirt ideas!
this is excellent
I'm wondering about that detached arm at the bottom, partially behind the snare drum. Did it drum an arm loose?

Not one of them fit to lead. Not one.
All of them are fit to get in on the grift, though
I remember being worried about Mitt Romney winning the Presidential election......he has to pay for security for himself and family now
Cruz and Scott are already dead, they just don't have the intellect left to know it. Rand Paul is just waking up to the fact of his mortality, and no one is forgetting the couch, or his guilt by assssociation, and even as a "faithful," Catholic, messing with The Popes.

Two of Wands

Another card (mostly) completed for my upcoming Feral Path tarot deck. It needs some texture on the path. Maybe. This is the 2 of Wands. Created entirely in Adobe Illustrator. No AI. ©2026 Davezilla. All rights reserved.
I’ve always liked the theory among some readers that Aces are like a point. A single dot on a sheet of paper. But two dots? That makes a line. A direction. A purpose. A choice. The idea formed in the Ace of Wands takes shape and now has a direction. A strategy.

Never thought about the ace's point. And I'm married to a professional card counter.

A Nankeen Night Heron, standing on a partially submerged tree branch, looking into mossy water for a feed.
Did a Bird Watching Walk at the local lake (Herdsman Lake) and had a great time.
ooh, self guided or are they offering tours? I'm def moving into my old man bird watching phase. Bird Count coming up on the 19th of this month, can't wait
@Argie https://www.wagouldleague.com.au/event-de... was the one we did. Couldn't see an October one, but it should be up soon. It was really good. They have binoculars to borrow as well if you don't have any.
@jordanbrock ooh cheers, now on my to do list
Bird of the Year

Close-up photograph of a small black bird, giving an impression of roundness and fluffiness, perched on a branch. It has tiny black eyes and a tiny black beak.
source: https://www.cnn.com/2026...
"Small, shy and clad head-to-claw in black, New Zealand’s karure, or black robin, has been crowned the country’s 2026 Bird of the Year.
"The critically threatened bird is found only on the remote Chatham Islands, about 800 kilometers (500 miles) east of mainland New Zealand. The karure finished at the top of the pecking order with more than 25,000 votes, beating previous winners the kākāpō, a large flightless parrot, and the kārearea, or New Zealand falcon, into second and third place, respectively."
