Ok one positive thing about our unusually muggy weather for the last 2-3 months is that my favorite tree, the jacaranda, hung onto its blooms for longer than usual. Instead of dropping them all in mid-July like they usually do, we’ve gotten to enjoy them through the end of September

I love the bit about using spite as the fuel for your motivation. I feel that in my bones and have since my teenage punk rock days 😄 ☠
Screenshot of a section of the article reading:

"Which brings us to the real question: what actually keeps you going once you’ve picked your target?

Usually, people lean on two familiar narratives. The first is the Hero — righteous, noble, fighting the good fight. The second is the Victim — powerless, aggrieved, waiting to be rescued.

Both are traps. Heroism runs on moral outrage, and outrage burns out fast. Victimhood is even worse: it strips away your agency by design. Victims don’t get to build things; they just react.

There’s a third fuel source that nobody puts on the manifesto.

Spite.

Spite doesn’t care about consensus or applause. It doesn’t need a hashtag or committee approval. It just needs a target and a quiet, immovable resolve to build the exact thing they said you couldn’t.

That’s what actually powered early punk. It wasn’t a grand strategy document. Nor was it self-pity. It was a stubborn conviction that the record labels could go to hell. Punk wasn’t built by people asking for better terms from the music industry; it was built by people who were specific, focused, and done waiting for permission."

Raising a baby with great musical taste over here! She was not interested in falling asleep to a boring lullaby, but rocked out to some electro-funk in her bouncer and promptly conked out 😂

I have to get my new baby a passport and was wondering about when the awful new design I keep seeing headlines about rolls out. Turns out it’s just for passports issued from the Washington DC passport agency location: www.cnn.com/2026/04/28/p...
The US will soon begin issuing passports featuring an image of President Donald Trump inside, a State Department official said Tuesday.

The official said that the passport “will be the default passport out of the Washington Passport Agency when available” for those who renew their passports in person at that location.

“Online options or other locations will maintain existing passport design,” the official said.

She was so affectionate, a total velcro cat - always wanting to be in my lap or nuzzling me on my shoulder. She was very social too, climbing into friends’ laps the first time she met them. She will be sorely missed by all who had the privilege to be on the receiving end of one of her cuddles 💕

I had to say goodbye to my sweet little kitty Eva last week after 15 years of snuggles and love 😿 She was by my side almost my entire adult life, and I’m really missing her presence already.

@jaketapper.bsky.social I appreciate how much CNN looks like the news again today… simple, informative ticker (including stocks again!)
