I got a new chair and Lukus quickly found the top of the back cushion was suitable for napping. #caturday #catsonblueky

ICE is active on Kauai. Just received an alert from our local Democratic Party of Kaua'i Chair.

He's always been a fraud.

Cardboard box, packing paper, cat … inevitable. #caturday #catsonbluesky

🤣🤣🤣

Never more true.

Pin sticking fun! 👍👍 (comes with pins)

Here's some new Creatures of Hawaii t-shirts. In the midst of resisting and declaring "I am Antifa", I must use my creative drive to help relax some — these days are intense. #GraphicArt #HawaiianNature #Aloha dragonhousestudios.etsy.com

My old George enjoying the setting sun days of his life. He was one of the best kitties I've ever known. #caturday #catsonbluesky

If there wasn't a special obit in the headline today, the news that the Nobel Peace Prize went to Venezuelan politician María Corina Machado was almost as good.

One day they all will have to answer.

It's all to dodge the Epstein files.

"Can we go inside now? I don't want to be out here any longer." Payne, reaching for the door handle, and George, from many years ago. #caturday #catsonbluesky

It's Bandcamp Friday. 🎹🎸🥁 All monies go directly to the artists, which is myself and my musical partner Andrea. As 8000 Miles, we made a couple of progressive rock instrumental albums a few years ago. This is the first. ⇩ The 2nd is listed there, too. 8000miles.bandcamp.com/album/aggreg...

Something I try to do …

It's good to have friends ... #caturday #catsonbluesky

Finally, an explanation …

Some interesting photos on the credenza as he signs his birthday card to Epstein.

On a baseball note … #ABS #baseball

Memorials, statues, state funeral … No. Just stop. #charliekirk

Lukus is hoping for good news today. #caturday #catsonbluesky

Apparently …

Do I have to wake up? I was dreaming so peacefully. #caturday #catsonbluesky

Taj would squeeze in what space he could as I worked on a design. He's gone now. Miss him. #caturday #catsonbluesky

So Elon is moving away from EVs to robots and AI. Aw, did he get his feelings hurt with everyone's response to that godawful ugly 'truck' and decide to take his ball and go home? His despicable politics have tanked car sales, too. He is a has-been already. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

An anole lizard resting on top of a north Georgia iron garnet that is on top of a black lava stone near the front door of my home in Kauai. The garnet is from when I lived in north GA. I would find them on my dirt road. It is about the size of a softball. One of the largest I ever found. Very heavy.

A rain shower just rolled through as the sun sets beyond Hanalei Bay.

We'll make it work somehow …. #caturday #catsonbluesky

I sure hope this sticks. The judge wrote an 82 page order. She makes some excellent points. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

What's up? #caturday #catsonbluesky

Users of LLMs are being lied to by AI. Knowing what’s what is on the user. It's risky stuff. I don't see the benefit if it always needs to be cross checked. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

In-between screaming "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!!!" I do get some creative stuff done. Calms my nerves and it's just what I do. So, I've been doing a series of variations based on one of my favorite sayings, "I like Music and maybe 3 people." dragonhousestudios.etsy.com

Good article. Democrats "must tell voters that …Trump is making their lives worse, not better. He and his administration are amateurs, … entertainers and grifters, shock jocks and freaks. Whatever talents they may possess, mastery of governing is not one of them." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

August 8 is International Cat Day. My 3 kitties are taking the day off. #catsonbluesky

Aug 31, 2005 Twenty years ago. I took a walk up my street just as the setting sun was lighting up a huge cloud in the east. A neat row of Royal Palms under it looks so tiny.
