Having two cats and two people with long hair means having a robot vacuum is great. Really keeps the level of loose hair down. The only problem is when you don't notice one of the cats hacked up a giant hairball before the vacuum ran. Wow ... That was an impressive spread.

FIRE WIN!!! FIRE WIN!! WOO!!!! #WNBA #PDXFire🌹

We made it to a midweek game?? Craziness! #WNBA #FirePDX🌹 (Traffic was actually so much better)

If you're watching the list of SCOTUS decisions and not seeing how they change them and shift them to come to the conclusion that limiting the Black vote is what they want to do you are being wilfully blind. And that should tell you something about yourself.

Content to be boxed in

Not amused that the catio is closed for the day...

The what now era? If only there were some sort of search engine you could have used to get that name correct...

@joshgondelman.bsky.social shared this song in his newsletter this week (you really should go to his page and subscribe) and it's so good. Yes, I'm partial to PopPunk, and yes the message is just in the pocket for me but .... No buts, it's just so good! youtu.be/yUEtwx8ZEV4?...

Brent made Mother's Day dinner today. We had steak and macaroni and cheese. Which is his birthday dinner favorite as well. So happy day to both of us, not sure how I'll Mother's Day up his birthday this year but I'll figure it out. 😂

Got home from basketball in time to watch the second half. I mean.... Wow #RCTID (Not sure if it was that we played that well or they are just that bad, but we looked so good)

Let's Light It Up! #FirePDX🌹 #Reignited #WNBA

He's hiding...

We all need to dig our heels in and refuse to be drug backwards. Stand up, speak out, don't ever shut up about it.

Hahahaha!! Opening night for the Fire tomorrow! Brent and I will be there! You can decide where we fall in the tiers. 😂

When I was in advertising we used "hunt where there's bears to be hunt" this could be my new favorite version of that. Though, there are bears there too...

Tux really needs to learn how to relax.

@thebloggess.bsky.social left secret messages in her new book just for me.

They're spending more on everything not just gas, isn't that wonderful? Soon all credit cards will be maxed out and we think that has to be a sign of a good economy... So much spending!

For that cross section that isn't sure whether they want to celebrate Dave Brubeck or Star Wars today... May the Fourth be with you in 5/4 time.

Preseason but first home game. Let's Go Fire! #PDXFire #Reignited

Good deal!

Last week I didn't know how to feel ...this is much more familiar sadly. #RCTID But man....

I mean can you even imagine?

How cute is this?

“It is with great disappointment that on May 2, 2026, Spirit Airlines started an orderly wind-down of our operations, effective immediately.” I'm not sure how orderly you'd think it was if you were halfway through your trip with no ticket home.

I love this piece so much. Banksy confirms statue of man blinded by flag in London is his work www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Wooo!!!! #BAONPDX🌹

Tux watching the birds...

This would be really sweet if Tig hadn't been on my lap, woke himself up with a foul fart, and then went to cuddle his brother leaving me in a cloud of carnivore stink

I'm...I'm not even sure how to react to this anymore.... Relief more than joy maybe? #RCTID

I mean....I hate that I'm this person now but seriously? Was this all to set up his "need" for a ballroom?? How many times is he going to go to this well?

I need to thin the tulips this year for sure. And why do I always forget I have Dutch iris planted? Every year it's a surprise.

Oh this is such a good reminder.

We saw Dudley's new "Trans oooh scary!" commercial the other day and said to each other...he must be losing. Yep. Fuck him. New poll shows Christine Drazan way ahead of Chris Dudley, Ed Diehl in Republican race for Oregon governor - oregonlive.com share.google/CB0wlp7zjx3q...

Hegseth and Patel still holding strong. I guess Judge Judy will be next?

Mine! All mine!!

You know it's hard to be a Timbers fan when the most joy I had in that match was watching James take the pitch.... AND HE'S NOT OUR PLAYER! #rctid

Tig helping Brent with interviews. He thinks he should hire the one that doesn't disturb his nap.

So if you can't get Bluesky to load how are you supposed to check their Bluesky status?

It's too cold for the catio so he's pretending.

Just got an email from a Senior Living Center in Florida. Look, I already felt old enough with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees being posted I don't need this shit too!

This is why I use Ghost instead of substack. If you are a Substack poster please change platforms.

When your long night of partying finally catches up to you

Not a fan of the thunderstorm

Is it just me or did Melania's press conference yesterday give big "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" energy?

During the summer Tux likes to sit outside and watch the sunrise. Tonight he decided to appreciate the sunset.

I would like to dine al fresco tonight.

Vance denies US interfering in Hungary's elections while in Hungary campaigning for Orban Vance shills his I'm Catholic Now book; story comes out that US threatened the Pope. Vance says Lebanon is not part of cease fire; it was in the tweets yesterday. Is Vance a liar? Shocking if true.

And as a follow up: Congress, you've got 2 weeks to stop him. We can't keep counting on him to back down after escalating. There's only so much market manipulation that he can do before he actually presses the button. We might all be relieved in this moment but he's still, well, him. Do your job.

Thank goodness for TACO Tuesday.
