Bitty mushrooms.

Sierra Nevada hiking. Weird alien looking plant. Plant? Plant.

So much sneezing but still so pretty.

Well placed meteors.

Walking around at work and thinking my shoe feels a little funny.
Noticing a weird click noise as I step.
Investigating and finding a glob of sequin jewels stuck to the bottom of my shoe.

Dang bodies making us do lousy things to keep them healthy 😭

Spring is here even if it wasn't much of a winter. Changing seasons and hoping for hope.

#ThisYearsSADWasCrap

Jellicle Men needs to be added to the option list.

The kids are alright.

Winter sunrise in a suburban neighborhood.

Stopping to breathe and watching the sunrise.

So much of my life right now is me thinking in my head, "I beg your pardon, but what the fuck did you think they meant?" while doing all the individual things a person can do to alter the course of history.

If you are in danger unless you comply with a regime, you are in danger whether you comply or not

Maybe he should try sucking less 🤷

#NotMissingMeta

Remember the end of The Lion King when the hyenas realize Scar lied to them to secure power so they eat him?

Thinking about that a lot for no particular reason.

Having some feelings that when I try to research how to cultivate hope and survive an occupation everything is about toxic work environments. And there's a lot of suggestions.

It’s fun trying to find that line between “I need to remain vigilant of the horrors afoot” and also “oh no my heart is racing and my jaw is making weird creaky sounds and I can taste pennies.”

Even though most of us will probably never lead the charge, we all have a vital role to play in this battle before us.

Today we went as a family to check out a new locally owned bookstore.

The top one was my choice, and damn if I don't need some help finding Hope again right now.

I went to a grief support meeting for bereaved parents and a mom told me I couldn't understand because my child was a stillbirth and her child was a teenager. I didn't go back.

Can we do it mst3k style?

@theatlantic.com Hey, what gives with the lack of integrity? Either no cares cares about TikTok or it's the signal of the loss of freedom of speech. Which one is it?

I won't be going back and I appreciate that you are here.

The TikTok whiplash has proven one thing to me. American freedom is absolutely an illusion, able to be removed at a single whim.
