Apparently 5mg is the sweet spot for me with #THC. Nice feeling without the nervous system freakout that usually follows. #Cannabis #Weed

Ooof. Seems like the #RedSox are going to once again sit pat and hope for different results from the same group of largely young, less experienced players. Good luck with that. #MLB #Baseball

Our plant room is looking more like a jungle room now with more #houseplants added in the last two weeks!

Sad to see a once-great university helping Big Tech bros plunder our future via #AI. Not exactly "higher learning" Why the hell would I want to learn how to help machines eliminate my job?

Trying to figure out what exactly Ibanez thought they were doing with this new Alpha series #guitar they just introduced. Looks more like Telsa attempted to make a guitar. Tesla CyberGuitar? 🤨

Imagine if all the Democratic Senators wringing their hands over the ICE incident in Minneapolis, actually did something like say, file articles of impeachment, rather than just express mild disapproval on social media.

Most of December has been very overcast and quite chilly; the kind of weather that makes me want to stay at home, under a warm blanket, watching Antiques Roadshow or Great British Bake Off

@kaine.senate.gov @markwarner.bsky.social anything less than impeachment of Trump is unacceptable and a moral failing of the U.S. Senate! Do your damn jobs, find some backbone and defend the Constitution!

Part of me wants to check the news to see if the world is going to react appropriately to the U.S. takeover of Venezuela and sanction the hell out of the U.S. but given that they turned a blind eye to genocide in Gaza, I don't have much faith.

On a happier note, I ordered the JHS Series 3 harmonic tremolo pedal and it should be shipping soon! It's basically a tremolo with a switch that activates a phaser-type effect over it. #guitar #GuitarEffects youtu.be/gUqLaC1IyWE?...

You can't tell me Trump isn't trying to distract the country from the contents of the #EpsteinFiles by launching into this chicanery in #Venezuela. It won't work, because his entire persona is being a creepy pervert pedophile. He can't escape it, it's fundamentally who he is.

Morning Bluesky. It's a cold one here with a touch of snow, persisting despite bright sunshine 🥶 Glad I didn't cut these rudbeckia back 😊🌱

Good riddance, 2025. Maybe we can actually thrive some in 2026, rather than just get by or maintain?

Not a whole lot to do during this weird time of year between Christmas and New Years, so I ended up getting all of our seeds ordered last night. Quite excited about #gardening this year, now that we have some proper raised beds and drip irrigation ready to go! #GrowYourOwn

One big lesson learned this year: don’t give your time and mental energy to people who don’t reciprocate. Don’t let yourself be used and taken advantage of. And it’s hard because some people (at first glance) seem genuine and sincere. But do they really support you when the chips are down?

Mongrel is the BEST shop in Carytown. Change my mind! #RVA

Watched #Sinners this evening and was NOT expecting a turn to zombie/vampire after starting out as seemingly a normal period movie, lol! Apparently my wife didn't realize it was going to take that turn either!

Good morning & Merry Christmas to my Blue Sky friends. I’ll never forget this one. Christmas 2020 🎄✌🏻

I love #RVA at night during the holidays, just gorgeous!

“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

We got our first ever persimmons from our little persimmon tree! Just these 2 but it's exciting to get them! Hopefully we will get more each year moving forward! 🌱

Watching #CunkOnLife. OMG! 😂 youtu.be/ByCxxZOwQUI?...

Had a really great day today, felt like I gave my depression a thorough ass-whooping through multiple avenues of #SelfCare. Not going to keep me down! 💪

Grow light setup completed, with a test tray on a shelf. The LED strip lights are extremely bright, and this kit came with a plastic cover. Excited for spring already! #SeedStarting #Gardening

I think this might be a first! Assembled something (a grow light rack for seed starting, in this case) without a single curse word uttered! No missing pieces or parts that don't fit! 😆

Imbibed some weed for the first time last night; delightful experience once I got past the initial coughing phase, lol!

@tokimeki.blue is there a keyboard shortcut to more easily switch between workspaces, instead of going into settings?

🌱 I love it in June when the Ninebark blooms 🌸🌸🌸 #gardening #flowerfeed #bloomscrolling

Reflecting sunset. 🌅 See you tomorrow.

Seed catalogs have started arriving in the mail, so we're looking ahead to what we want to grow in the garden in 2026. My wife wants to give squash another try....but we had major issues with squash bugs and squash vine borers in years past. Does anyone have ideas for managing them? #gardening

Hope everyone has a peaceful #Thanksgiving surrounded by those who truly care for you and support you no matter who you love, what your gender/orientation is, what your immigration status is. Just a quiet day at home for us after my MIL's passing last week and the funeral yesterday.

Red sunset over Los Coronados islands viewed from here in San Diego. Safe travels to all of you who are traveling. Cheers! 🥂 🧡

Helped put up a little free library #littlefreelibrary #maryland #library

Feeling so much better mentally and emotionally today...in part because I was finally able to put my finger on an issue I've had for a while but didn't know what it was, and able to definitively understand it: co-dependency. Too much of my happiness...(cont. below)

Had a weird nightmare last night that I was being interrogated intensely by the mafia for (either inadvertently or intentionally) talking to FBI agents, and one of the mafia guys was....Bill Cosby 🤔 I woke up right before they started beating me up, lol. How does the brain come up with this stuff?

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we name and mourn the many transgender, nonbinary and gender non-conforming people murdered each year because of their identity; each of them a beloved child of God and a story cut tragically short. We invite you to share the names of who you are remembering today.

Earlier on the expedition we found the most beautiful flower, and here, my friends, is the biggest: Rafflesia arnoldi seen in full bloom today in the Sumatran jungle. This is the largest flower on earth and one of the greatest wonders of the natural world.

Youth-led projects are planting native species, building pollinator gardens, and bringing bees, birds, and biodiversity back to cities. Small actions are making a huge impact.🌱🐝#COP30 #ClimateAction #Youth4Biodiversity #RewildTheFuture #astralwavelength

My sweet mother-in-law suffered a major stroke this morning (with no apparent health issues prior) and will likely be taken off a ventilator this evening. Hug your loved ones close and don't take for granted the time you have with them.

My closest Barnes and Noble had closed down for a while a few months ago while the shopping center did some re-apportioning of stores and tenants, and recently re-opened. The new format inside isn't nearly as cozy as before (the cafe is gone) but the book selection has improved immensely

Black gum (Nyssa sylvatica) can have wonderful fall color. On any individual tree, the range of color from one leaf to the next can vary. The fall fruit adds to the beauty and is very popular with birds. The first picture is a species tree while the second picture is a cultivar. #nativeplants

And just like that, POW 💥 starting the week off with this beautiful #Camellia loaded with flowers in my favorite color 💖💝 #Flowers #Gardening #Plants #GulfOfMexico #Autumn #November #FlowerReport
