It is impossible to make every single perfectly ethical choice, which we even had a podcast episode about. We all have to choose where we draw our lines and where we make concessions. eedapod.com/the-impossib...

In an ideal world I'd have loved to secure both tires to the rack. However the location of the rack RIGHT against a wall made that impossible. Or I'd have done that, obviously So my choice was 2x locks on the bike with the front tire totally up for grabs. Or the way I did it.

I did it!! Took a min to figure out how best to secure the bike to the rack. Got the back tire and frame w/ litelok x3 and the front tire to the frame w/ litelok core+ I am ridiculously pleased with myself and feeling a bit smug if I'm being honest lol. I am A Person Who Bikes Places! #BikeSky

A backpack sits on a table with a sketchbook. In the background is an ebike locked to a frame.

A better look at one of the paintings I did yesterday. Experimenting with some brighter colours and although my dark moody palette always will have my heart, this is fun too I think. As always my art is 100% hobbit-made 📸 Cafetoyo Amber and Jade Roasters, Toyko #ArtSky #ACEO #UrbanSketching

A dark grey building with two small windows at the top and larger windows next to the door, accented in orange. There is an electrical pole to the left and a planter with a large green plant on the right.

Plus a weekend away just sounds so nice right now. I haven't travelled in almost two years which is a big change from travelling 2+ times a year for the past several years.

I'm so stoked. Urban Sketchers Vancouver is doing a sketch weekend at the end of May in Victoria and the artist lineup is SO GOOD. Was doing some of the social media graphics tonight and getting excited to learn from these talented folks. #USKVan #UrbanSketching

Smart business owners and CEOs remember how unions came about and don't poke the labor too much. We don't have a lot of smart business owners and CEOs in this country, though. And they're all ignorant of history.

Super productive afternoon coworking with @minettefraise.bsky.social Now it's time for snackies and Apothecary Diaries before getting back to the painting. Art cards available in my kofi shop! #ArtSky

Two small paintings of coffee shops on a board. Beside them are a latte in a mug and a strudel on a matching plate. There is a small paintbrush rest with three brushes on it.

Apparently it's #PortfolioDay which is cool! I'm Willow, a queer disabled hobbit from the PNW. I love painting buildings with a touch of whimsy. My art cards and commissions start at $5CAD (incl shipping). You can find my stuff at ko-fi.com/whimsicalwil...

Three coffee shops all painted in the same loose watercolour style with splatters of paint. One is a neutral toned shop with a lot of wood accents and a small plant on the shelf. The other has a bright orange awning and green door. The third is a tall brick building.

Absolutely. In my fiction the good guys need to win. And sometimes it needs to be supremely uncomplicated and just that. I don;t mind a twisty story sometimes that really makes me think, but like, not all the time. And the good guys NEED to win.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Hubby DMs his online game today so I'm gonna curl up downstairs with a cuppa and my switch and maybe bake some pretzels. Probably put a coat of varnish on my plein air easel. Then hotpot for dinner tonight. I love our life.

For anyone who writes a post complaining about an issue and then has an edit saying that they figured it out and they don't explain how they fixed it, there's a special place in hell for you.

I've been loving my bike so much. It's a bit big and heavy but tbh so am I so we suit each other just fine lol. The motor on it is so nice. When I hit a hill or just need a bit of a breather I can pop on extra assist or hit the throttle and just zoom for a bit.
