The paradox to how much I hate eating healthy and working out is how good I feel when I do it.

WES #1003 zips past a suburban street in Oregon.
Trimet's light rail WES #1003 zipping through Tualatin. A line of trees break up the late afternoon sunshine. It is peaceful.  It is an ending. But not a final one.

I’d like to see the game Goldeneye made into a movie. So like there’s two aspects of the original movie but the rest of the movie is just the levels of the game including multiplayer. James Bond running around The Complex going “Where am I! Fuck!”

I do my best to maintain healthy body goals and not valuing myself based on my weight, but there's very few joys as good as putting on "that really nice pair of pants" you havent fit into in years and realizing that you look cute in them.

Chilling, eating my lunch, and this 7 year old kid on a bike shouts out, voice tinted only vaguely by doppler shift: "Hey, do you like touching grass?" Me: "Yeah, quite a bit actually. " Kid neither stops nor slows. Just calls back "That's what I'm doing right now. " Ride on, lil dude. Ride on.

Golly Oregon is pretty.
Multnomah falls lower side (69 feet)The water is much more quiet down here, but its still on its way to the Columbia. The Columbia river basin from about a third of the way up the waterfall. Multnomah falls upper and the Benson bridge built in 1912.

This weekend's mech project! The paint pens aren't quite as nice as a proper paint brush and palate, but as far as ease of use they cant be beat. Not much of a story for these particular mecha blorbos. So uhh, they're all gay and kiss and stuff.
Battlemechs (and a tank.) They have been painted in desert camouflage despite being mounted on green bases. Something has gone terribly wrong with this deployment. A wolverine, my personal favorite of the 55 Mafia.Banshee with Wrap Around Oaklies.

Strawberry economics
A four frames comics about how I can afford strawberries as a 34 year old adult. The first frame shows a bunch of gariguette strawberries in a box at the supermarket. The text reads: "STRAWBERRIES ON SALE". In the second frame I am holding the box of strawberries happily, saying "And I have enough money left to afford them!". In the third frame I am eating them and saying "Mmm a scrumptious treat...". In the fourth frame I am closing my eyes and thinking "The economy is very bad".

Not seeing much truth in the headlines this morning. No freedom to be found, and justice is just gone. Hell, even love feels unreasonably priced in 2026... but fuck it all. I got me soft boiled eggs.
Two soft boiled eggs, peeled and rolled in s+p, with a piece of buttered toast. I probably should have cut it up into lil soldiers.

Stanhill, Lancashire, 1764. Weaver and Carpenter James Hargreaves invents the Spinning Jenny, the first practical spinning-frame, to make the tedious task of producing cloth a little bit faster. He doesn't know it yet, but this will destroy the world.

Spurred by inventions like his, the industrial revolution will transform everything -- work power, the wealth of nations. Society as we know it began here, and it wasn't great for everyone. But a group of weavers and textile workers saw this future coming. And did their best to prevent it.

In the deep there is movement. Slowly it stirs. Scales of lime and apathy falls from Her flanks as She stirs once more. There is a beat. It sounds like drums. And hope.

A surprise to no one who knows me, I'm now officially volunteering at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center. It's nothing fancy for now, but it's forward momentum.
The OR&N co is the railroad I have based my fictitious line off of. This is an engine in the process of restoration at the Oregon Heritage Rail Center in Portland!
