It was so obvious when it finally struck me, but winter season truly is a liminal space. As the rest between harvest and growth, it’s got me making plans. But in 2026, I don’t want to get so heavy in plans & research that I forget to actually START the thing, you know?

Working a Saturday shift at the ol’ library, but nipped out during my lunch break to quickly join the No Kings protest happening on the Main Street in the suburb where I work
Signs at a No Kings protest. One reads, “Are we great yet? ‘Cause I just feel embarrassed” and another reads “I take my whiskey neat…F*CK ICE

Happy 4th of July to the 17 million Americans who will lose their healthcare over the next decade! 🎉🇺🇸💰 XOXO, the heinous 218 congressional reps, 50 senators, vice president, and president who are totally looking out for your best interests (🙃) #BigBeautifulBill

Y’all, I made a fairy door for my garden and am pretty chuffed 🧚🏽‍♂️
A fairy door (brown with painted blue flowers and vines, slight glitter overlay, beach glass window, and small beads acorn door handle) rests on a nondescript desk top

Proud of my kid. #HandsOff2025
A teenager stands with their back to the camera, holding two protest signs. One reads “Hands off our future”, the other says “Only perverts care that much about other people’s genitalia”

Terrifying quote about 47 in Aaron Blake in the Post (article here: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...)
“And one new quote should send shivers down their spines. It comes from an authoritative new Washington Post report about how Trump arrived at his surprisingly large and often-puzzling tariffs.

‘He’s at the peak of just not giving a f—- anymore,’ a White House official with knowledge of Trump’s thinking told The Post.  ‘Bad news stories? Doesn’t give a f—-. He’s going to do what he’s going to do. He’s going to do what he promised on the campaign trail.’

This is an anonymous quote. And the White House certainly has reason to project resoluteness. Trump himself posted Friday, ‘MY POLICIES WILL NEVER CHANGE,’ and ‘ONLY THE WEAK WILL FAIL.’”

Ready for #HandsOff2025 ✊🏼
Four painted protest signs that read “science not silence”, “only perverts care that much about other people’s genitalia”, “executive branch does not mean c-suite”, and the  acronym TRUMP (“tragically real: unhinged megalomaniac president”)

Went to my Congressman’s first town hall 2025 last night. I like Mullin. He knows state & local issues well and knows the stakes federally. But my dude needs to listen to his constituents who literally pleaded for a little less decorum & a little more rabble rousing (also, #Veep fans read alt text)
Congressman Kevin Mullen of CA-15 on stage by a podium, speaking at a town hall on Mar 20, 2025. People in the audience look on, as does one of his team who looked exactly like Dan from Veep, which made this photo-taker laugh at the event

SFO ➡️ JFK. We all know which is the superior airport
Four light fixtures hang from a vaulted ceiling, looking like blue and orange rods arranged as starbursts. In the bottom right corner, a bit of a sigh from Harvey Milk Terminal at SFO

Sometimes on #WalksInMyTown I just have to marvel at the sheer weirdness of the tree varieties in this place (redwood, palm, and cherry here). All photographed in same little place

Getting ready to present at our town’s Teen Wellness Retreat later this month. Will be leading an art therapy session to craft your own mini calm space. My sample is a tiny library, of course 📚 Excited to chat with kids, share resources, & remind them the library is a safe space for them
Small tin has been decorated to look like a library, with shelves of mini books, a dollhouse potted plant, and tiny drink. The other side is wallpapered with washing tape and a paper “mirror” overlays

A local school lets some of their seniors paint the parking spots. I particularly like this one #WalksInMyTown
Parking spot shows the asphalt has been painted midnight blue with a scattering of stars. Palm trees and green overgrowth in the background

Took this shot of an artistic landscape photo propped against the glass of an outbuilding’s window. The window has a big hole smashed right in the center 🤔 #WalksInMyTown

If you're mentally drained from the news but still want to be an informed person, it helps to look sideways and see what workers in our federal government actually do. I highly recommend the Netflix show The G Word with @adamconover.net.

Very fun distraction of late is playing #CultOfTheLamb on Switch. A weird, cute, creepy little fight & farming game. The funniest detail is when one of your followers grows old and dies, the others gather around the body and say "hmm" in conversational tones like they're discussing the weather
Cartoon, colorful woodland creatures gather in a candlelit circle around a devious lamb in a glowing black and red pentagram. Still art from video game.

Hoppin John (I make mine with smoked turkey leg) & collards for luck in the New Year. Tabasco to go with, obviously

Seems apropos that an AI company that scrapes your data named themselves after a parasite #HuggingFace
Still from the film Alien, John Hurt lies prone with a face hugger alien covering his head. A masked, scientific Ian Holm looks on, scientifically

Pigeon stares directly into camera, into your soul, with utter contempt and attitude. Background of people in woolen hats and a blue sky

Stack of books: 1984, The Crucible, Micro Activism, Young Hag and the Witch, Filterworld, Cunning Folk, In the Dream House, Dinner for Vampires, The Book of Magic

Evening shifts are the worst (only once a week for me, mercifully). My brain shuts off at 6:00 & then I’m just unproductively futzing around the library for another 2 hours

1. Sprocket. This smarty knew what was up with those pesky Fraggles even when Doc wouldn’t listen. Then sweet boy had the wherewithal to change his mind and befriend said Fraggles. I also seem to have a memory of him being able to roller skate (?)

Really needed this today. A quiet day, home with kids & dog, dry earth desperate for a drink. Washing away the last numbing week, readying to start again
