Yeah, that Guardian list got to me. I'm doing it. I'm about to dive into Middlemarch. I don't read much pre-20th-century literature aside from the usual Russian suspects, so we'll see how I fare. 📚💙🖊 #booksky

New day, same position. I need to go to work, sir. #cats

Someone missed us after we were gone on a road trip for five hours. #cats #caturday

It's just past 6:31 now. Happy birthday to our amazing not-so-little-anymore human! Thank you for putting up with my often bumbling attempts at being a father!

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

I think the reason I've been a little ambiently mad all day is because January 6th rioters are statistically the most likely group of pedophiles in the world and they clubbed a guy to death and they're going to be rich from the tax money that I give to the country I live in.

Feel like death warmed over today. It's hard enough for me to sleep when the overnights are warm. When you throw in the birds starting in with their stupid birdcalls right outside our window before 4 AM it's near impossible to sleep.

This is a cat check point. Relinquish your most recent cat picture on your phone.

GIVEAWAY! Dead Weight is coming out next week and to celebrate I'm giving away two copies that have been personally bitten by Uggi and will be personally signed by me and shipped to the winners wherever they live! To enter just like and share this post and I'll select the winners on May 26th!

Just finished - and enjoyed - Trust by Hernan Diaz. And now I want to read all the books. Not being hyperbolic there are at least 10 books I would be very happy to start right now. 📚💙🖊 #booksky

ready for the weekend

Morning nuisance #cats #catsofbluesky

No willpower whatsoever. Sad, really. #booksky

Because I know this is what the fans want... Michael Busch is now hitting .313/.434/.567 with three homers, six doubles, one triple, 20 RBI and 13 walks since a goose landed in shallow left field during his at-bat in the 3rd inning against the Phillies on April 20.

10 wins in a row. Again. 20 out of 23. Never a doubt. #cubs

Cubs complete the sweep without needing a walkoff. How dull. (That 9th inning, though.) #Cubs

Contractions with 3 words: -she'd've -wouldn't've Contractions with more than 3 words: -y'all'll've -they'dn't've

Day off. Freshly showered, spouse is napping, kiddo won't be home from school for another hour. Now for that quiet reading time I don't get very often. (I just started Trust by Hernan Diaz a couple days ago. So far, so good.) #booksky

Truthfully I don't think I'll be able to hold out. Once I get something in my head...

No, really. What if. #cubs

What if the Cubs just never lose another home game? 🙃

I keep purchasing books faster than I can read them. (Six acquired since my birthday nine-ish weeks ago.) Sooooo... even though Douglas Stuart has a new book coming out tomorrow - which I only just learned about A COUPLE DAYS AGO - I am going to try & be good for the rest of this month. #booksky

Slightly diminish a book .. ... East of Eden Prairie

Going to attempt to get back to posting more this coming week. (He says late on a Saturday night, when it's easy to make boasts you may not fulfill.) Life has felt like nonstop "lather, rinse, repeat" & what's interesting to post about that? Anyway, here's a late #caturday post as recompense.

Damn near as good as the original. This is so, so good. youtu.be/t8_MDcXVwUE?...

Democrats could win 2026 elections TODAY by saying “if they build it, in the first week of our majority we will blow it up.” Special nationwide lottery to win the chance to press the ‘blow that shit up’ button will pay for cleanup.

W/o downloading anything new where are you mentally

sick of reading bad news

Mingus's birthday. Official announcement of a new Boards of Canada album. 70 degrees & sunny. I'm good today.

Charles Mingus - Boogie Stop Shuffle Bassist, composer, bandleader and arranger Charles Mingus was born today in 1922! A pillar of jazz. Snap your fingers to this one. #CharlesMingus #MusicBirthday #MusicSky #JazzSky #Bass #Jazz #Boogie #Stop #Shuffle youtu.be/UGIK_NEJdVA?...

That's two weeks to file of impeachment. That is the Congress's only job. That's it. Nothing else.

We can't have nice things.

today sure feels like one of the all time ‘so i still just gotta go and do my little job during all this?!’ moments

We are so, so small. #Artemis

that the president is making unhinged threats of war crimes on easter sunday should be an immediate presidency-ending scandal and that the media is rewriting this as just a normal negotiating tactic should be a career-ending scandal for everyone involved

Drop something ROBOT-RELATED 🦾🖤🤖

Wish I'd have swiped the peanut butter m&ms that kiddo made me buy him yesterday at the doctor's office. As of this morning he still hadn't opened them & I'm craving chocolate something fierce.

Current read. Had the fleeting masochistic thought of starting her massive Books Of Jacob, but not yet. 📚💙🖊 #booksky

This guy speaks for me, too! 👍 #NoKings

A boy & his cat #cats #caturday
