Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 22/03/2026More live music… The Main Squeeze played their asses off at The Mint. 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 21/03/2026The Bad Plus came to L.A.! I’ve loved this group of jazz virtuosos since discovering them on NPR and finally got to see them live. After… I see on their Wikipedia page that they’re disbanding at the end of this year. Phew! They were nearly a “wish I’d seen them when I had the chance,” band. 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 18/03/2026This beautiful lady chose to spend some time in our pool! I know I should leave her alone, but I’m “this close” to searching online for how to leave some food for her. 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 14/03/2026I’m good! I miss you, too. But those Meta-owned apps are too evil. Life is better away from them. I may be against Meta and, of course X/Twitter, but I ain’t against a lunch sometime! 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 13/03/2026True story. Lily comes home from college and says, “What should I bake?” I reply, “We’ve got tons of fresh lemons on the tree in the backyard.” Soon we’re driving to the store to buy a Bundt pan. Then this beauty appeared. It sincerely tasted even better than it looks. 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 13/03/2026How else was I going to be able to figure out how much egg white REALLY equals an egg? 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 13/03/2026We finally hit Indian Wells Tennis Garden for the BNP Paribas Open! We loved every minute. I have a hunch we will go back every year until we’re six feet under. 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 13/03/2026We saw and heard The Bad Plus at Blue Note Los Angeles last night. Amazing musicians. Amazing music; mostly Keith Jarrett compositions. And Elizabeth had “the best salad ever.” Fantastic evening! 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 13/03/2026I went on Instagram and kinda loved that my posts make a personal photo album for me to enjoy. So… even though hardly anyone will see this, I’m going to post things on BlueSky just so that I can look back on them years later. Hopefully it doesn’t fold! 111
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 17/12/2025Dang. 2001: A Space Odyssey,The Graduate and Rosemary’s Baby came out in 1968. But the too movie at the box office was Funny Girl. 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 01/11/2025Voted as a family because for the first time all three of us can VOTE! 020
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 28/10/2025I watched a baseball game from start to finish for the first time this year. It only took 6 1/2 hours! 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 30/06/2025First plum of the season. Tasted so sweet your mind would be blown. 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Yeah. I’m putting down my phone and picking up a book. Soon. 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Frick. Not sure this awful genie will go back into its bottle. 110
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 14/06/2025I’m grateful that I I left the house to join this peaceful demonstration walking distance from my childhood home. I’ve never felt anything quite so powerful as being among thousands of Americans who joined together to state publicly that they believe in the U.S. Constitution and the Rule of Law. 050
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Last night I learned that when your partner asks, “How do I look?” before a pic is taken, ask the same question back so that they can say, “Oh, your tie is totally crooked and they should kick your import or ass outta here.” 150
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 23/04/2025My wife, who likes nothing from the Star Wars universe, gave it a shot with me and was amazed. She loved it! It IS too good for Star Wars, as is Rogue One. 020
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 22/04/2025I can’t wait to start… but I have to wait. We’re bingers who Jed all the episodes out before we begin. 100
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 19/04/2025I honestly thought I felt no connection to my alma mater, and maybe it’s because Lily chose UCSB, but for at least half of our campus tour I was holding back tears. #sappyoldperson 040
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 17/04/2025100%. The executive branch ignoring the judicial branch's rulings is the definition of a constitutional crisis. At some point is the Supreme Court going to order the arrest of a law breaking, and therefore criminal, executive? If they don't then they're risking their branch being dissolved. Scary. 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 13/04/2025There are two Jupiters in this photo. The Planet and The Owl. We named the owl Jupiter because after listening to it Whooo for years it finally showed itself and flew to the top of the pine. Jupiter! 040
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 09/04/2025It’s not every day that Chester climbs onto my lap during a standard back scratching visit. But he did on this day, so I encouraged him to take a selfie. 030
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 31/03/2025Yes! When the Trump admin talked about denying CA federal support for the L.A. fires, I was suggesting CA residents refuse to pay federal taxes if we get denied federal emergency support. 020
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 20/03/2025I mean…. It’s pretty clear that Trump wants to be free of legal restraint. Does that make a constitutional crisis in which he says it must be abandoned inevitable? I think the only thing that would prevent it is strong and early action by the judicial and representative branches. Is that likely? 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 06/03/2025JOMO. This is me in four letters, but only now that I’m old. As a younger person it was definitely FOMO. 020
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 06/03/2025I used to be registered as an independent, but then I didn’t get to vote in primaries. TBH, what I should do is register as a Republican 100
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 03/03/2025This excellent short film won the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film last night. Bittersweet for me. Our jury loved this submission to @shermanoaksff.bsky.social but the producers were unresponsive. Our emails are likely in their spam folder, which is why it didn’t screen at SOFF last year. 020
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 01/03/2025I’m sending you a MAGAPRT invoice for $0.13, the “Make America Greedy Again Post Reading Tariff.” 000
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 26/02/2025So… totally outside my comfort zone here. I started the @difwins podcast to interview filmmakers from @filminvasionla and @shermanoaksff back in 2017. I successfully dodged being the interviewee until episode 500 that released TODAY. Maybe y’all will enjoy it. 150
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 20/02/2025💯 But… AOC and a few others still give me a little hope. 110
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 19/02/2025I just walk up behind them and shout, “All-male triple-penetration? Noice!” They close their browser and immediately leave the library. 110
Reposted by Jeff HowardDevin Brooke @devinraebrooke.bsky.social · 11/02/2025Guess I should talk about media or movies on here since I’m an actor. I’m playing the Indiana Jones video game, it’s really nice being in a universe where the fascists are the bad guys & also SAVE THESE DATES in your calendars - 2/28 and 3/15. We boycott. 3/15 is also my bday so fight Nazis w/ me 🎂 131
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 10/02/2025They’ve got a steady gig at the Cavern Club in Piverlool, England. (I did switch the C’s in Cavern Club.) 010
Jeff Howard @heffay111.bsky.social · 08/02/2025A bright orange Hummer EV with the vanity plate ASLAN. Such a cocktail of things I love and hate that I sincerely cannot process it. 010
