I'm getting an electric, pedal assisted bike. Going to try to ride it back and forth to work as often as I can. Approximately 38 miles round trip. I live in the country so I can take all back roads. It's been awhile since I've been on a bike!

chuffed.org/project/1798... CBD and hemp derived products will be illegal at the end of the year if legislation isn't passed. If you feel it's important to save the hemp industry, here is a place to donate. It's time to end the prohibition of THC products at the Federal level.

roselosangeles.com/products/ecs... If you have any issues with pain, I recommend this THC infused balm from Rose Los Angeles. It works incredibly well. I'm not affiliated in any way. I just want to share because I know how awful pain is to deal with.

Time to cancel your Paramount+.

I saw a bunch of baby Killdeers and I always look forward to this each Spring.

Operation Taco Gary's. Awesome title and Simon Rex. I really wanted to like it but it missed the mark for me.

There was a reported data breach on Amtrak. I'll just say, without trying to be a conspiracy theorist, what strange timing.

I saw this beautiful Pheasant in my driveway. Unfortunately all I had was my cell phone and he was a bit far away. He was trying to protect two females that were in the field. I barely saw them because they blended in so well.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlbe... I love this album so much.

If you haven't already, it's time to boycott this company. They don't seem to care if we die or get cancer. Let's not care if they make any money.

Making my first ever trip to Costco today. 🎉

The guy on the right man spreading. Keep your legs closed!

A serene moment on the Riverwalk

My friend wrote a children's book based on my three dogs. The Great Treat Machine! www.amazon.com/dp/B0GWF2T3NH

Please get back to Washington and get him out. We can't let this stand.

So getting a survey from the gas station when I paid at the pump is a bit much.

Lol!!!! Never in a million years!!!!!! I'm not even on that platform and never will be. Billionaires have taken enough of my money.

Annual reminder: don't spray spring dandelions with roundup or similar chemicals. One flower can be visited by 100+ bees in a day, and your chemicals will kill all of them.

Happy Ostara! And happy book birthday to me! The Wheel of the Year: An Introduction to Pagan Holidays not-coincidentally comes out today. 😃🐇🌸 Grateful for a fresh start. 🙏 a.co/d/01diUjI6 @scbwi.bsky.social @12x12challenge.bsky.social

I'm sad to hear voter turnout has been sluggish in Illinois. I'm hoping more turn out as the day goes on.

Happy St. Patrick's Day and it's voting day in Illinois! Let's go!!

I literally couldn't fill out and mail my ballot for the primary fast enough!

Gas prices are up almost 60 cents per gallon here in Illinois

Give me a quick second I just have to vacuum the dog😂

Canceled my HBO subscription. Looks like Maga billionaire won the bid. I'm so glad they are buying up everything 🙄 At least I can still choose where to spend my money.

insomniacvibes.bandcamp.com/album/om-mok... Sharing my latest bandcamp purchase and testing out the new in app play. Hopefully it works. My favorite band is King Buffalo and this is right in my wheelhouse.

Best selfie ever

Tongue out Tuesday 🙂

I hope we can all find love in our hearts this Valentine's Day

The layers in the sky caught my eye 😍

I'm so happy we are finally out of the sub zero temperatures. I saw a pretty amazing sunset this evening. It's amazing how fast the colors change when the sun is setting.

So excited to reveal the cover of The Wheel of Time: An Introduction to Pagan Holidays! Beautiful art by Dan Hamilton. Paperback/ebook available March 20th. Ebook preorders are live! www.amazon.com/Wheel-Year-I... @caffeinatedterrier.bsky.social @faerienuff.bsky.social #booksky #kidlit #authorsky

I finally did it. I really feel a sense of relief. More time to read books and watch instructional photography videos which is infinitely more productive and less stressful!

Spent Christmas day watching a marathon of the top horror movies and scratching them off my @fangoria.bsky.social poster. I look forward to another marathon day of watching on New Year's Day!

This sunset was very pretty

Happy Birthday to APWU Local 0001! 🎉 The American Postal Workers Union represents the very best of the labor movement — dedication, solidarity, and service to our communities. Honored to celebrate with you.

My Mubi picks this year

Completed mural in Earlville Illinois. There are six scenes depicting some history of the town.

Everyone involved needs to go

So Mitch McConnell was the one who slipped the anti hemp language into the government funding bill essentially banning all hemp products. This sucks

I was already angry at the bullshit legislation they passed and I'm so bummed about this. I love hemp beverages.

I took a quick snap of the Aurora. This is the first time I've seen it myself in Northern Illinois. It was visible with the naked eye.

The trees look so pretty. Peak Fall color is happening!

Just got out of the theater for Black Phone 2. A couple walked out because it was too gross, lol! @crobertcargill.bsky.social I thought you would appreciate that. Loved the movie!

from the latest print edition of ‘The Onion’

My friend Andrew and I have begun a new project in which I provide photographs, and Andrew will write essays inspired by them. Our first installment, Turn, Turn, Turn, (To Everything There is a Season), is available at Picture This on Medium: medium.com/picturethis/...

What an absolutely incredible photo by @staceywescott.bsky.social
