Hi Reader,
Welcome! Thanks for coming. I hope you're well. It's unseasonably warm today for early February. That doesn't mean it's warm, but warmer than I expected. Regardless, I'll be serving hot cocoa until we get back up to a low of at least 50 degrees.
So! Just in time for Valentine's Day, I've got a new expansion for Raccoon Sky Pirates:
This eight-page PDF has charming pencil drawings showing raccoons kissing or gazing longingly. Nothing NSFW, just pure raccoon love.
It's full of tables for out-of-control raccoon romantic scenariosāwho you're in love with, why you love them, whether it's a secret, and whether they love you back.
Then, while you're flying across town and raiding a house (you know, like you do), you have to find the perfect gift for your true love and give it to them at the perfect moment.
What could possibly go wrong?
I hope you like it!
xoxoxo
Chris

Hi Reader, Welcome! Please, come in. Itās raining a lot lately hereāI'll take your coat. I found some white starflowers in the woods, and I put them in a vase on the table. I love science fiction. I especially love āspace operaāāthat is, interstellar adventure. (No actual opera in it.) This genre gives me a sense of possibility that I need. I donāt care how realistic it is, so long as the writers sell me on it. And I'm an easy sell. For years, I needed to believe I could be an alien. Or a...
Hi Reader, Welcome! Please, come in. On the table, we have irrepressible daisies, rather hastily stuck in a jam jar. No, donāt go in the kitchen. If you want some water, I can get it for you. Just. Stay here. The thing is, in our house, M does all the cooking. I should cook more, but I keep passing up opportunities to learn. So, yesterday evening, when M was headed out for a work-related event, I said, āIām going to step up. Iām not getting take-out. No. Iām going to broil salmon.ā I...
Hi Reader, Welcome! Please, come in. Make yourself at home. It's so good to see you. I brought in some wild violets and dandelion flowers from the back yard and put them in a bowl of water. Iāve been reading up on A.I. Itās mind-boggling what it can doāand how fast it's changing. It can write and draw things that look like a person made them. But it's not great on factual accuracy or single-point perspective. The thing is, it's always "hallucinating"āfumbling blindly, algorithmically, for...
