Let's make a catbird

Grey catbirds (Dumetella carolinensis) are one of my many faves. Let's make a catbird.

jaunty angles

burbling away loudly but invisibly within a dense bush

emerging to peer at you from a branch

little black cap

MYEHH

a little mimicry for a treat

handsome shade of slate grey

"Oh yeah, we have an outdoor Corgi, he just gets so bored cooped up inside all day. He knows to stay off the road. Don't worry, he's way too smart for coyotes and the neighbor's know to look out when they drive past."

"Us? Oh, of *course* our Dachshund sleeps inside- we just let him out in the morning and make sure he comes back for dinner. He just does his own thing, no worries."

"Um, you know it's not humane to keep a chihuahua confined to an apartment? They're dogs, they're natural predators. They need to experience hunting behaviors or they get depressed. No we don't leash ours, he absolutely hates it, we just let him come and go whenever."

Yall get how fucking stupid that sounds, right? So stop letting your goddamn cats get eaten and attacked and infected and hit by cars

A toddler would probably love full unattended access to the neighborhood too, but we don't do that either, do we

It's 2026, "keep your damn pet in a house or in your view" should not be controversial

I had to go on a hunt for this but it was worth it. 100% agree

I don't understand how cis people obsessed with gender norms think trans people are the weird ones. they're going around believing that your name has to correlate to your genitals. your fashion has to correlate to your genitals. your behaviours have to correlate to your genitals. your hobbies have to correlate to your genitals. who you date has to correlate to your genitals. whether you can put sparkles on your eyelids or not has to correlate to your genitals. and then people like me go "hmm. I might not do that. maybe I'll just do what feels fun and okay instead" and they LOSE their MINDS

Small entry foyer.

Opens to a large bright living room.

Very nice TV are off the formal living room.

Family room area with lots of shelving.

Next, there's a large dining room.

And, look at the tile in this kitchen.

Off the kitchen there's a tiled laundry room.

What a sunny hallway.

This room is used as a home office. It looks like that's a built-in cabinet.

Very large main bedroom with a wall of closets and doors to the patio.

Nice 3 pc. bath.

In addition to the large wall closet, there's also a walk-in dressing room.

This bedroom is very large, also.

Bedroom #3 is similar to the main bedroom, but is used as a sitting room.

The bedrooms get so much natural light. This one has a door to the patio.

And, look at this tile bath.

It has a contrasting color tile in the shower.

The patio/courtyard that the bedrooms open out to.

This 1963 mid century modern home in Concord, CA was built with a color theme, and it's been preserved. 4bds, 2ba, 1,795sqft, $1.275m.

Lovely, large sunroom with a view of the pool.

And, then you enter the large, airy living room.

I love fireplaces, but they seem so useless in California.

The dining room is a part of the living room and has plenty of space for a much larger table.

Now, in the kitchen/family room, you can see the color theme in the kitchen cabinetry, and the owners embraced it for the whole house.

This is so nice. Look at the table attached to the cabinet with the cooktop.

I wish they would've used more of the orange that's on the fridge.

Spacious primary bedroom with sliders to the patio.

There's 2 room ensuite.

And, a big walk-in closet that you don't usually see in a mid century modern.

Bd. #2 is a good size.

And, here's a nice home office or bedroom.

The 2nd bath.

Large laundry room has an office area and sliders to the yard.

Outside there's a beautiful patio and pool. Look at the umbrella in the pool.

There's a smaller patio on the side of the house.

Look at all the fruit on the on this tree.

This one, too.

7,280sqft lot

Welcome to Lumiere, a quirky 1971 home in Richmond, CA, that has crystalline pieces in the walls that refract light like a prism and make walls translucent. 2bds, 1ba, 1,186sqft.

It stands out in the neighborhood.

It was designed with the aerodynamics of a ship, with built-in furniture, prow shaped front, 2 mezzanines, and a crow's nest at the top. It's also meant to make a small footprint with passive solar energy.

Here you can see the luminescent pieces in the walls.

This is very nice.

The living room is very sunny, surrounded by windows with a view of the San Francisco Bay.

It has a lovely kitchen.

Architect Walter Thomas Brooks built it for his family, so I'm surprised that it only has 2 burners.

Built-in counters in the dining space.

Triple size bed.

Small shower room.

These stairs lead up to a bedroom with built-ins.

There's a double desk or counter facing the bay.

This is the mezzanine they mention in the listing. You can see the floor below from the counter.

Then, this ladder goes up to a small room in the top of the house. they have a little keyboard up here.

And, some shelving. You can that it's open to floor below beyond the shelving, so this is the 2nd mezzanine.

Outside there's a pond.

View of the Golden Gate Bridge.

There's also a studio.

And, a nice patio.

6,534sqft lot. It seems very close to the house next door, like it's a teepee in their yard.

So stoked to share the official trailer for the Avatar Aang movie, now releasing JULY 25th on Paramount+!!

I’m so proud of our crew and honored to have been a part of this.. for everyone who has waited to watch the official release in order to support the artists and animators, I just want to say thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart - it truly means so much!!

I'm just going to say it - body hair (and beauty standards in general) is truly one of the final frontiers of women's issues in the West. Too many women just love their gilded cage too much. It shocks me how virulently women will defend it. I barely open my mouth and the "well I like how it feels. it just makes me feel cleaner. sensory issues. I do it for me. feminism is about choosing (to conform)." brigade come rushing in by the dozens.

Well I don't like how it feels. I don't feel cleaner without body hair. I don't prefer not having body hair. But who will advocate for women like me, but me? For women who do like hair removal, they are advocated for every time they step out of the house and see 99% of the female population also conforming to that standard, or when they watch a movie and see all the shaved actresses, or view an advertisment, or open a magazine, or watch a music video, or scroll through social media, or walk down the streets without receiving insults and glares for having a completely normal bodily feature.

You genuinely can't even point out that hairlessness is a man-made standard without women losing their shit and acting like they are totally immune to propaganda they've been exposed to from birth. I'm so tired.
