Fake posters for 257 movies I saw this year
alt text
(Technically, one of these is for the live action short film nominees.)
Some really good stuff in here, including seeing one of my favorite films of the year yesterday.
Now I need to figure out a new project for next year!

This was absolutely great. A daily Thing is really inspiring me for 2026. Thanks for sharing your obsession/talent with us.
I've also enjoyed (and will miss) the series. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!
Another fan here, guessing the posters and using the alt text to see how many I got right was a treat!

Knitted Hilbert curve, triptych
alt text
Picture of a knitted artwork, about eight inches wide and twenty-ish inches long, showing three increasingly complicated iterations of the Hilbert curve fractal executed in yellow, orange, and red yarn respectively, all over an off-white background yarn. The edges of the piece and the horizontal rows separating each of the colored curves are done in garter stitch; the curves themselves and the negative space around them in each figure is done in stockinette.
Finished this piece a few days ago, getting around to posting as I try to clear off my metaphorical desk for the year (the physical one is hopeless). Being knitting, I worked from the bottom, which means that it got both less interesting (fewer changes to think about) and faster to execute (fewer changes to think about!) as I moved upward.
Glad I pushed through and just made it instead of trying to perfect it; learned a bunch of things to think about for future work from what wrong in subtle ways, which is helpful, but also the overall thing works pretty well regardless, which is also satisfying!

this is giving me the inspiration to restart something I've let go.

A woman in is suspended over New Year's Eve guests. Everyone is joyful and old school classy, straight from Last Year In Marienbad. Almost feels like the woman is stage diving.
I never get invited to those parties. 😭
“I love to laugh!”
Great scott. That's when my older brother was born.
My parents were not that boisterous by far.
What a great festive picture.

An animated gif from Batman: The Animated Series, showing a bandaged Batman clinking coffee mugs with Commissioner Gordon, captioned, "Well, here's to survival."
Hopefully we'll be doing this again next New Year's Eve. From The New Batman Adventures' "Holiday Knights" episode (adapted from Bruce Timm and Paul Dini's comic book story in "The Batman Adventures Holiday Special").

A calendar with a photo on one side and the days/month on the other. The photo for October is showing, with a white curly-haired little dog pooping into colorful leaves in the ground while making eye contact.
My lovely wife specifically asked her parents for a custom calendar of their puppy pooping as she got older from the time we got them the dog last year.
They thought it was weird but did it anyway. So now we have 12 full-color pages of “Nelly” doing her business in the grass and leaves and snow.
Happy New Year!

Still, it's cute as all get-out.
nelly does not look as amused as i am right now 😂
It's awesome that they're not afraid to make eye contact

Andrea was unfamiliar with the legend of the Cat Snake so we were hysterical for a good portion of the evening.
You say weird. I say nasty.
@m3moellering So what is it?
@0y3ahSansAcut3 Ferrets? They're as hell but sooooper smelly.

I am almost certainly missing a couple here. One of the nice things about having an excellent bar a block and a half from home that hosts free shows three nights a week is that I actually catch more live music that I would otherwise. Bear in mind, I also go to a lot of live lit/storytelling shows around town, and host two live lit shows and a variety show of my own. I also saw at least one dance performance, but I didn't record it on my calendar.

The fellows at Fallow(heh) knock it out of the park almost every time. Some of the stuff they do is pretty out there but they stick to the fundamentals of technique more often than not.
I really like that YouTube channel. Those guys have some great techniques I've since adopted.

Had to wrap up the dog because it's so cold out (-10 F/-23 C). This photo's actually from a few years ago because I couldn't get the dog to be still long enough for a photo after dressing her today. (She's going to be 17 in April so she has no patience for our shit anymore.)
(If I did upload this previously my apologies, couldn't find it if I did so.)

So cuuuuute! Our silly old lady dog is 15 going on 16. Here’s to catering to good old dogs!

Books appearing over a background that reads: "2025"
As I do every year now, here's everything I read this year, and me calling out my favorites. Read a lot of old favorites, but still managed to find some new ones.

Hey neat, I signed up for the poem of the day. What made you decide to read Gravity's Rainbow this year?
@jessamyn It had been on my list for a while, and I decided to jump in at random. Nothing specifically triggered me to seek it out.
I want to read Vineland this year.
2025 shows

list of shows i saw in 2025. hopefully scannable with a screen reader
i spent a lot of time watching @wjcstp’s band, naturally, and every show we saw together was a winner, especially deerhoof—phenomenal. also delighted to see viagra boys again and flash them my flappy giblets. wearing my shirt from the devo show today! time to get some tickets booked for the new year
I saw !!! open for Deerhoof in 2005-ish and it was the best show I’ve ever experienced. Both were excellent, but Deerhoof was absolutely stellar. I’m pretty sure you could power the world if you could harness Greg and Satomi’s energy somehow.
@robotmachine oh man, i saw !!! ages ago and they were SO GREAT. that’s a beautiful bill with deerhoof!
Love Deerhoof and have seen them 20 or so times, though not in a decade or so.
