These hydrangeas we planted two years ago bloomed this unexpected bright magenta-y purple this year. Some of them are darker, almost like a red wine color. I swear they were a much paler pink last year, but I'm into it. I hope they get huge and cover the whole back section of the yard. 🤞

Maya the Bee
Vintage copy of Waldemar Bonsel's "Die Biene Maja." There are two anthropomorphic bees on the cover. One is holding a long stem maybe like a spear and the other is kneeling with its hands clasped, pleading. There are lines indicating her wings are moving.

The ladies are even closer today. I love when they do little hop-skips in excitement over arriving at the grass they couldn't reach the day before.
Black and white and brown and white cows munching grass in a field directly next to my uncle's deck. You can see cattails in the irrigation ditch between the properties. Some cows are closer. A brown and white one is looking at the camera.Now a mostly black cow is making eye contact with the photographer. She appears younger than some of the others in frame.

Everyone speaks so cruelly of the distraught onion man tasked with holding his brethren as they await the chopping block. But his sorrow speaks to me.
White ceramic onion with a man's crying face. His open frown and a little hole in his pointed head/hat allow for air flow. A single tear forever on his cheek. A treasure.

Approx four million gorgeous teapots in my uncle's home and this wretched thing was his daily driver. (He did use the cool ones for company, at least.) New rule: Use your nice things yourself.

Two decades of capturing Beaver the cat's best angles. These are my faves so far because he developed/printed them himself.
A b/w photo he developed himself of him and his beloved cat Beaver who moved to NL with him from Germany. They are sitting in a wicker chair and she is mid-jump off his lap.B/w photo of Beaver the cat. She is a tabby with big eyes and her ears are in a "really?? More photos?" position.

I'm helping my mom clean & pack up my Uncle Fred's house in the Netherlands. I'm gonna make a thread of things that make me smile even though this is rough. First up: photos. There are thousands of photos & slides from decades of travels and good times.
Three color photos on a wooden tabletop of my Uncle Fred looking cool as hell in the 70s. He is a white man with long dark hair and black framed glasses, and some hip fashions, like a dark suit and a leather jacket.Black and white photo of my uncle Fred smiling at the camera resting his head on his hand, leaning on a table. He is shirtless and wearing a watch.Black and white 1970s photo of my uncle Andy smiling at a table holding a cigarette and wearing a robe looking very suave and a bit like a movie star.B/w 60s photo of my uncle Fred and his bestie. She's in a long hippie dress and he's in bells with a cool jacket. They're leaving a hotel during one of their many adventures.

Horace (left) and Nibbles (right) — named by the shelter. I don’t know how Horace got Horaced but Nibs would delicately pull each kibble from her bowl and drop it on the floor to eat individually. Took forever to finish her meals. Animal Control had named her Stubs but the shelter was kinder.
Two snaps of two cats taken in quick succession while the dilute tabby on the right was hollerin’ and the black and tan larger of the two on the left ignores her. There’s a pale curtain behind them that somehow isn’t visibly covered in fur.

Today we are all sending good thoughts and well-wishes to my handsome best friend, Horace, who is at the vet for x-rays and dental work in a continuing effort to solve his mysterious disappearing appetite. Yes, all of us. Thank you.

Haven’t seen the live action One Piece but I sincerely hope they worked in my absolute favorite frame of all 1K+ episodes.
Screenshot from the One Piece anime of Zoro from the perspective of a triceratops he was facing off with. The three horns are framing him and his three swords. It’s the best.

My cat Horace and I enjoy watching the YT channel Squirrels_at_the_window together. Highly recommend it.

Went to the Fenimore Art Museum to catch the folk art exhibit before it ends and reaffirmed my love of weathervanes and also found a new favorite artist in the Thaw Collection of American Indian Art—Onondaga potter Peter B. Jones. Please gaze upon one of his clay figures titled Deer Dancer:
Clay figure by Onondaga artist Peter B Jones from two angles. First shows the full just under about 2’ sculpture; a skull-masked body with horns in a floor-length tunic with human hands holding branches. The second frame is closer up showing the stitched vertical division of the mask detail as well as the beaded-like texture of the tunic. It’s extremely cool.

Oh! Wait! You also designed my favorite mug (of my favorite mug) I think?!!

Trick-or-treat was too windy and rained us out (or back in) after an hour of cold, damp, and sporadic goblin visitors. But happy Halloween anyway! Hope yours is fun and warm.

I never realized how lucky I was to work in a corporate refrigerator. 😬 Is the dress code specifically no t-shirts or is it “shirts must have collars”? I ask because often if it’s a dress it’s seen as not a tee. These are a lot like what I wore when I had to “dress up” + leggings/tights.
Model wearing a sleeveless t-collared black dress. Model wearing a long sleeve knee length black dress with a collar that is not too high or low. She’s wearing cute black bike style boots too. Model wearing a black t-shirt dress that could use the sleeves cuffed a bit. This with tights or leggings looks like half my wardrobe that I never wear anymore since I’m remote. Model wearing a longer black t-dress in summer-weight material.

The iOS mango emoji makes me feel like my eyes are getting worse. 🥭🥭🥭 Awful emoji for such a delightful thing. I hate it.

Today’s neatest no-context find in my mom’s holiday adventure shared album.
An old brick stairwell in the sidewalk that descends four steps. Could be shallow or very deep leading into an underground room completely overwhelmed by leaves. Maybe the leaves are ascending upwards and going to spill out and cover the land. I don’t know because this is the only non-video in today’s shared images.

My mom’s in the Netherlands (Friesland) visiting my uncle and they’re adding photos to a shared album we started when I was there. It’s lots of museums, cafes, thrift shops, and orchestra practice. But I especially like ones like this.

Best/worst office mate.
Two views of a handsome and sleepy black and tan tabby stretched out across a desk directly in the way of the keyboard and monitor. His belly fluff hangs over the edge. In the top panel he is resting his head on his paws on the keyboard and in the bottom panel he has picked up his head to look at the camera, unamused.Same handsome tabby cat at slightly different angle, looking very serious, more of a portrait of a cat with a computer job.

Normally I’m into whatever the special salad is at my mom’s & my regular spot. Today I stopped in by myself as a treat cuz she’s back in the Netherlands until Oct and it was this combination of the only produce I don’t fuck with: raw broccoli and blueberries together. Punishment salad. 😔

Every night for 30-45 minutes a truck across the street idles in their driveway and lights my downstairs up like an alien invasion flick. There is a whole little mini park and a street between us and I don’t think these are even their high beams unless they drive through town with them on. 😎

My cat Horace doesn’t agree that camera focus equals attention. No photos. Only pets. Even if there’s appropriate amounts of cooing over his handsomeness while I find his angles.
Two photos stitched together of a black and tan tabby cat lounging on Halloween print sheets. In the top one he’s got his paw stretched toward the camera with his claws gripping the bed and is side-eyeing in annoyance. In the bottom he’s looking straight on and is blurry as he shifts to swat the camera away.
