I found this wild bird eggshell while on my walk yesterday. This is an odd time of year to find one, so this was a lucky find.

This is one reason (among many) that I will always object to vibe-coded projects: blog.codeberg.org/protecting-o...

I was looking up some stuff about Iran, and came across this in the NYT archives. It was refreshing to see someone in 1984 calling out both incorrect references and male chauvinism. Well done, Mr. Aron, well done.

My annual email from the Giraffe Boards telling me happy birthday; death is imminent, oh well, whatever, never mind.

The more I look at irises, the more I understand how an artist could spend their entire life painting them.

I heard an almighty gobble-gobble on my morning walk and looked across the street and saw these kids. #turkeys #wildbirds

This morning's walk uphill. Both ways.

Fog on the Barrow Downs this morning. Well, it's actually just the scrubby area at the end of the golf course, but I can imagine a ghost or two out there.

Also saw this gorgeous clematis on my walk yesterday morning. Such beauty and so ephemeral.

Went for a very long walk this morning. Got to pet a dog. My day is made.

And we are doing the upside down tomato thing.

Oh, now he's right side up. Finally got that part figured out.

A week later and the tomato is doing great. And now he has little green onion friends. #gardening #garden #containergarden

From Elizabeth McCracken's book on writing /A Long Game/ I happen to agree.

Sometimes I read something on the internet that just destroys me. But also, why have I never heard the term "ass clowns" before? I have had so many uses for that for years.

I am trying very hard to understand this. A "reusable plate"? So pretty much....a plate?

My local grocery store has a great sense of humor. And, cheap wine.

Work has sucked lately, so I took the day off and made myself a steak lunch. #worklife

I don't smoke, but this is pretty much true. People who are thinking of moving to the US, this is life here.

Sometimes #Reddit is amazing. Someone asked about the weirdest frugal thing you've ever done, and suddenly we're talking about how #cats are weird little angels. I love it.

Sitting on my balcony, listening to Heartbeat City by The Cars, and also writing about it for a upcoming zine. Doing okay on this Monday. #thecars #80s #80smusic #zine #zines #heartbeatcity

Spotted in the wild earlier this week. (Well, it was actually spotted in the grocery store parking lot, but it was still outdoors.)

How did we get here? This is how we got here.
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and then buy the pond. Tell him he can't have the fish, but he can fish for you and you will sell the fish and give him a very small cut, and then he'll say stuff like "I am hungry and my teeth hurt". Nobody wants to fish these days.

Spotted this in front of a local spa when out on my #dailywalk. I hate this kind of deception. They're not hiring anybody. It's not a job. They're hoping someone will rent a booth and bring a large clientele with them.

Went grocery shopping a few weeks ago and I'm thinking I should have stocked up on these at these savings. #inflation

I saw this while shopping and I should have bought it to use at work because it's true. I am totally checked out at work. #worklife

The work of David Small never fails to leave me in awe.

Went grocery shopping early this morning and found some bargains in the clearance rack. The hacky sack is because I need exercise. It was around $5. The pagan fertility symbols were a buck each. I am happy. I feel I did well.

I honestly feel like this some days.... Everything I was ever taught never prepared me for living through the existential nightmare we are going through now. Ugh. Anyway, keep making art.

Urg... Working some ideas for the cover of my next #zine (which is about, naturally, #cleaning). Maybe the gradient should go the other way? Sir on the bottom, clean on top? (2025, multimedia in confusion and indecision.)
