Hearing about the Winter Olympics in Italy has me thinking about how I went to the Winter Olympics in Turin (Torino) and watched Italy win cross-country skiing as a weekend train trip up from Florence (Firenze)… …and I can’t believe that was TWENTY YEARS AGO ☠️.

A teenage girl in a brown down coat and black pants stands in front of a blue sign mounted on a fence that says “torino 2006”. She is standing in snow, with snowy mountains and a clear blue sky visible behind her.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

Philadelphia, September 17, 1787: "Well, Dr. Franklin, what do we have?" "A republic, if you
can keep it."
With a judicial finger in the constitutional dike,
It is so ORDERED.
SIGNED this 31st day of February, 2026.

Just a little positive story for the feed: Today I randomly decided to drive to the Kaimuki neighborhood after dropping my eldest off at school, to let my 21-month-old wander around a park. I almost didn't go because he was fussing, but I knew the outside time would be good for him. After we had -

There was a tragic car accident earlier today, so traffic was snarled and H1 Eastbound was closed. Very eerie seeing no cars on one side during the afternoon traffic.

A vertical photo of a freeway, with the divider centered. The left side is fairly congested with cars while the right side is completely empty.

So I have two TikTok accounts (to reserve my names) that I think were set to private, posted like two non-consequential videos on one and none on the other, and haven’t used either in 3-6 years (scrolled maybe ten minutes total ever) and don’t have the app on my phone. Can I just forget about them?

It’s not just that social media is full of bots, but people have *become* the bots. They are programmed and spit out pre-determined responses because their primary directive is to never back down. No matter what their eyes see, no matter how immoral their excuses are. I’ve unfriended so many.

Just finished my first embroidery portrait 🥰 Sylus from #LoveandDeepspace

And embroidery portrait of the character Sylus on red fabric in a wooden embroidery hoop. He has long white hair and white wings stitched with a net-like approach, and a red ribbon rose below him. Behind him is a layered moon appliquéd with silk chiffon.

I've just realized that since I was a kid, in the song "Oh, My Darling Clementine", I'd always kind of assumed she drowned in a barrel of pickles since she fell into a "foaming brine". 🥒

They knew us, knowing that. They knew the fields
outside the garden were alive and growing.
They knew to be afraid. They knew God had lied
about the tree. They knew the use of knowing.
They knew the angels knew the will of God.
They knew the angels whispered late at night.
They knew about the tree. They knew the apple

they knew it didn't matter what they ate--
they knew it and it hurt them into people.

Why does Hawaii have a fall/winter cold/flu season when our school year starts in summer and temperatures don’t vary that much? Is it tourist import? I ask as my baby is sick for the 2nd time in 2 weeks because my 4 year old has been bringing home all the best germs from (year-round) preschool.

Brand new computer just had a BSOD (third one I’ve noticed, they’ve been super random and Evenr Viewer has told me nothing useful), but now won’t boot at all. Right as I was preparing to deliver files to print to my boss. This is beyond my capabilities of troubleshooting.

I finally started the Halloween costume for my 4 year old, and while I was struggling over top-stitching spandex to make pockets on the shorts, I was like, "...why am I doing pockets? He doesn't need pockets, he never keeps anything in his pockets." So I re-cut and am much happier.

One thing about kids that you don't really understand until you experience it, is how everday little things have a permanent difficulty multiplier. Like how I can't open the dishwasher while the baby is awake or else he will try to pull things out/crawl into it, and if I close it, screaming. 🙃

Well, just tried to get my COVID booster at CVS in Honolulu, but despite having “high-risk” conditions, because I’m not on medication for any of them I can’t be approved for the shot without a doctor’s note. If I was actively taking antidepressants right now, they would have approved me.

Returning to my roots of buying art supplies as mental health treats. New cheap (no pressure) sketchbook from Ross for $6 and some pencils and erases from Daiso for like $18 (Daiso is not cheap anymore). And some LADS stickers for $14 because that’s what I use to disassociate from the real world.

A flat lay of items on a grey fabric. There is a top spiral bound light blue sketchbook that says CREATE in gold letters at the tips with a painted image of a Greek seaside village. At the bottom, it says “Premium Quality Sketchbook” 9in x 12in | 176 Pages. On top of it are two sticker sheets of the chibi versions of the characters Sylus and Rafael from Love and Deepspace, as well as a clear zipper pencil case with assorted items in it, including a yellow mechanical pencil, a couple of ballpoint pens, a white plastic eraser and a kneaded scented orange eraser, and a container of mechanical pencil lead.

We have a four year old now! ❤️ Spent his little family birthday picnic teaching him to fly kites and slide down the hills on cardboard.

A four year old boy wearing dark tan shorts, light blue crocs, and a beige cotton gauze shirt with red and black Lightning McQueen print is running through a brown patch of grass on a hill overlooking monkey pod and coconut trees lining the ocean. His back is turned toward the camera and he is looking up at a rainbow rectangular kite with green streamers flying against a blue sky with fluffy white clouds.
