I was thinking of watching a little Batman The Animated Series on Saturday morning, but the morning has already come and gone.

Merlins, flickers, woodpeckers, crows, chickadees... I love the morning chorus up here in Krestova.

#NowWatching Batman (1989)

Been a while since I saw this one.
There are a lot of beautiful sets and light rigs in this one.

I still think it's funny, and a bit of a shame, that the Batman costume dictated much of Keaton's performance. Why'd it have to be so hard to move around in??

I'm always pleased to see #YouTube creators who keep churning out over a period of years a series of many nicely done, long-form videos that are obviously an immense amount of work. And they continue posting these right up to the present, even though their view counts mostly never exceed 10K on any of them. (Of course, all manner of YT trash videos accumulate 100s of 1000s or millions of views.)

These creators are clearly creating for the joy of creation alone.

In a world of largely garbage media focused entirely on the eyeball counts, it's reassuring to see that some creators are still in the sunlight.

I'm far too tired to cook dinner today. I ordered delivery food from Ferris' downtown. Got their bouillabaisse - local fishes, shellfish, tomato fennel broth, parsley, saffron aioli & fingerling potatoes. They usually deliver a good sized serving - I usually have enough for a late night leftovers snack.

It still tickles me that the TERFS and Transphobes tried to claim Terry Pratchett as their own, and everyone who actually knew him, including his daughter, and co-author Neil Gaiman, was like WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, you couldn't be further from the truth.

I have served myself a double cheesecake portion, with fresh blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. I have made myself a pot of half-caf. I'm rolling Friday the 13th (1980) and will continue to roll sequels until I'm ready to sleep.

Where do you live and how do you feel about it?

Obviously, don't tell me exactly where you live, no actual addresses please! You can be as vague as you like.

I live in Central Missouri in the U.S.

Pros:

This is an absolutely beautiful place, green rolling hills, lots of rivers, lakes, ponds, and natural springs, cool caves to explore.

Lots of farming here, so great access to quality fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, and dairy.

It's relatively inexpensive to live here compared with other states, because it's a "flyover".

I'm close enough to three major cities, that it's an easy day trip, and I'm about halfway to anywhere in the U.S.

We have one of the best Conservation departments in the U.S. and this is one of the few things that is a bipartisan issue. Lots of awesome nature programs that are free or cheap, state parks, conservation areas, bird watching, hunting, boating, foraging available to everyone.

Cons:

Yeah, it's a big one, it is a RED STATE, while a lot of the cities are blue, there is a large rural population, that votes red. Abortion is not legal here. People often vote against their own self interest.

While I'm not against responsible gun ownership, lots of people aren't responsible, and people have access to guns that definitely should not.

We have very few employee protections here, while the cost of living is relatively low compared with other places, it's taken years to get to a $12 minimum wage, and it's still not enough.

Incoming! A severe G4 Geomagnetic Storm is expected to arrive around 02:00 UTC Friday night / Saturday morning.

At least 5 Coronal Mass Ejections took place over the past 24 hours, directed towards Earth. These originated from a large and magnetically complex sunspot cluster (NOAA region 3664).

There is potential for disruption of communications, the electric power grid, navigation, radio and satellite operations.

And bright auroras as far south as Alabama!
