We've come a long way, baby!

This is the building

Apartment building on the corner of Price and Hall Streets in Savannah

It must be BAAAAD for them to tent a whole apartment building of that size.

Two-story apartment building that takes up almost a third of a block, entirely draped in red tarp for bug-poison fumigation.

I also saw this thing for the first time ever. It says, "Hi, I'm Tally! I check shelf inventory." Anyone else encountered such a thing?

One of my favorite pictures of Butterbean, 3 years ago today, wearing a @charliepawsup.bsky.social bandana. 🥰🌈

Bambam is cross with me for gently nudging him away from the edge of the bed, where it looked like he might accidentally roll off in his sleep, he was that close. Sometimes being a responsible parent is a thankless job!!

Took me all day to watch an hour of the video, but I practiced enough 3D sculpting basics to end up with a very basic coffee mug. I can see why he went with a mug for that lesson. The donut involved almost no sculpting; just the selection of a mesh shape and some tweaking of dimensions. Onward!

I know "harm reduction" sometimes rings hollow as a principle for voting, but the "lesser of two evils" can make a big difference in real people's lives.

In 2021, when the agency announced its acceptance of LGBTQ+ families, the Biden Administration was uplifting anti-discrimination laws for LGBTQ+ people over religious freedom claims that President Donald Trump had bolstered in his first term. But since Trump’s second inauguration, LGBTQ+ rights and related child welfare policies have faced considerable pushback across the country.

Along with a record number of anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced in statehouses nationwide, Alex Adams, head of the federal Administration for Children and Families, has pressed states to roll back rules requiring foster parents to affirm the preferred gender identity of youth placed in their homes. Conservative Christian law firms have successfully challenged state and local governments in Washington, Vermont and Massachusetts for such requirements.

Sorry I haven't posted much Bambam lately. Here's a live look. Happy Sunday!

I bike past this every day and sometimes it just stops me in my tracks. Such a gift to the neighborhood, all these beautiful flowers!!

Three years ago today: little Butterbean with a little blep! 🥹🥰🌈

Butterbean used to sleep in hers like this! Bambam doesn't (he's built a little different), but he still loves it as much.

I'm going to take a wild guess and suppose a lot of it boils down in one way or another to racial profiling

The technology evaluates several factors when determining whether a reservation poses a higher risk, AirBnb Senior Communications Manager Javier Hernandez said. These factors include the type of listing being booked, the length of the stay and whether the reservation was made at the last minute.

Hernandez declined to provide additional details about how specific listing types are evaluated as he said Airbnb intentionally does not disclose such information.

FYI for anyone who lives in a "state like Georgia" (if you know what I mean 😜), Mozilla Firefox's built-in free VPN has worked for me to bypass certain state-specific obstacles.
