A dim interior looking out through an open ornate black door and glass entrance onto a street, with a parked grey car and sunlit autumn trees outside. — undefined - 29 Sep, 2026 at 6:03 PM

My current jam is 15000000 easy by torr.

Stylized cartoon album cover showing a four-piece band performing in a wood-paneled recording studio, viewed through a control-room monitor. A red-haired guitarist, blond musician, masked drummer, and black-haired singer in angular white glasses play under warm pink and purple lighting.

A charcoal drawing pinned to a white wall with clear pushpins. A teapot with a short spout on the left sits against a heavily smudged dark background, its open lid swung up and back on a hinge at the upper right. The teapot and lid are left as pale, streaky paper where the charcoal was lifted or left out. Below the drawing, a small white card reads "Introduction to Drawing, with Tina Oehmsen-Clark". Edges of other charcoal drawings show above and to the right. — a teapot - 24 Sep, 2026 at 9:02 PM

A vintage chrome clothes iron with a black handle stands upright on its heel on top of a tan shoebox with a black "MAG creative footwear" band. The box sits on a paint-spattered stool in an art studio with worn wooden floorboards. A table draped in purple cloth with an upturned stool on top is behind it, and wooden easels and stools fill the background. — an iron - 24 Sep, 2026 at 6:21 PM

A charcoal drawing on white paper clipped to a paint-spattered wooden easel. Four studies of the upright iron are arranged in a loose grid, each drawn by shading the dark space around and inside it: blocky outlines with smudged grey sides, a narrow dark slot where the gap in the handle is. Two long horizontal lines run across the upper half of the page. — the iron, four times - 24 Sep, 2026 at 6:50 PM

A charcoal drawing on white paper held by a yellow clip and a metal bulldog clip on a paint-spattered wooden easel. Dark charcoal fills a squarish block in the lower two-thirds of the page, leaving the splayed legs and crossbar of an upturned stool as white paper in the shape of an H. Easels, stools, and a purple-draped table are visible in the studio behind. — an upside-down stool - 24 Sep, 2026 at 7:15 PM

Read up to page 38 of Burnside by Devyn Defoe.

An orange tabby cat lying stretched out in the sun on a herringbone brick front patio, looking off to the right. Behind it, concrete steps with white wrought-iron railings lead up to a red-brick porch, with leafy plants and a climbing vine along the low wall. A fern sits in the lower left and a white iron fence runs across the foreground. — undefined - 20 Sep, 2026 at 2:33 PM

A painted wall in an alley at night. Along a white-painted strip at the base of the wall, a row of small black silhouettes walks in single file on a thin wavy line: a rider on a horse, a pony, and a line of figures with packs, bows, and an axe, led by a tall figure with a pointed hat and a staff. Handwritten to the right: "@DEWUCME 26, Fellowship of the Ring". Above, grey brick with blue, pink, and black graffiti; below, a concrete floor with dry leaves and faded stencilled lanterns. — undefined - 19 Sep, 2026 at 7:54 PM

I’m hosting Silent Reading Club at 1RG on the autumn equinox (Tuesday 22nd September at 6pm). Bring whatever you’re reading, find a comfy spot, and enjoy a few hours of quiet company with friends old and new. If you’re looking for something to read:

Into the dark by Kathleen Jamie, a winter spent hunting for actual darkness; quiet, beautiful prose.
In Praise of Shadows by Jun’ichirō Tanizaki, shadow as something to value rather than banish.
Total Eclipse by Annie Dillard, light leaving the world; the best “awe” essay in English.
The Book of Delights by Ross Gay, harvest and gratitude without the sentimentality.

Sheets of white paper are pinned to a white wall, each holding a charcoal drawing of a vessel. The largest sheet, at centre, shows a wide mug with a looping handle on its left side, shaded in soft grey with faint construction lines still running through the form and a small dark saucer sketched beside its base. Above it, a cropped sheet shows the foot and round base of a goblet. To the right, a rounded jug with a short neck is drawn over ruled vertical and horizontal guidelines, and below that a smaller pitcher is sketched in loose outline. A deep red wall runs down the left edge of the frame. — a mug - 17 Sep, 2026 at 8:47 PM

Cedric on deadpan photography (square framing, flat light, uniform focus) as a style that doesn’t claim neutrality so much as perform it, machinery left on display. The caveat lands well, the same refusal to editorialise reads very differently when the subject is suffering rather than water towers.

John Clary Davies on a 3 A.M. bear at his kitchen window and a record year for human-bear conflicts in Colorado. There have been over 7,000 incidents by early September. A dry winter and drought pushing bears toward houses and a whole town trading stories about cubs on the bike path.
