All set up for the kids, hopefully I have no interactions.

Happy Caturday!

Out my back door this afternoon.

If you don't have your credit frozen, you probably should do so today. This is not credit monitoring, it doesn't cost you any money. It freezes so no one can open new lines. When you want to use your credit, you 'thaw' it for a short time the the respective credit bureau. www.usa.gov/credit-freeze

Happy Caturday. I caught all these lazy boys napping together.

I absolutely love this piece and the larger work. 1996. youtu.be/B0OdXj6T_Yc?...

To all of you who are not fathers or don't have a father worth celebrating, happy Not-a-Father's Day, you magnificent bastards!

I absolutely love this.

Tabling for @recoveringfromreligion.org at Jersey Pride today in Asbury Park. Happy Pride!

Two shoobies down the shore. Past Nucky Thompson but not quiet to Snooki - with @adrianearmbruster.bsky.social

We are all biased, but not necessarily partisan.

Checkout the Line's MEGA fundraiser for @recoveringfromreligion.org, happening now and for most of the day!

Hey, Mary!

EWR -> ORD -> MSP

Last night we saw a highschool production of Les Miserables, at that school that looks like the Millennium Falcon, and it was really quiet wonderful. Not even for highschool kids, it was a very well done production by any measure. Way to deliver Parkland Department of Visual and Performing Arts.

Chilling in Rittenhouse Square waiting for @kevinjamesthornton.bsky.social for his 2025 #ShamalaHamala tour.

Jimmy is very sassy this #caturday. #oneorangebraincell

Cortez and his Lego counterpart.

Good morning you magnificent bastards.

Jimmy's smart face. #caturday #catsofbluesky

TIL that "Ave Maria" is "Hail Mary" in Latin. I don't know how many times I've sang "Ave, Maria, grátia plena" not realizing it meant, "Hail, Mary, full of grace." I blame my Catholic hating Evangelical upbringing.

This is very cool. If you have a Lego Ideas account, please click through and support.

"What is it??"

Egg bootleggers

If you see this, post a fictional band you would love to see live.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Quark wishes you all a very happy #Caturday. #CatsofBluesky

This evening I was renewed to the Board of @recoveringfromreligion.org for another three year term. I am so proud to be a part of such a wonderful organization.

It seems y'all are in need of some sort of eye bleach today. Here are all of my cats; Quark, Cortez, Meowski, and Jimmy. #catsofbluesky

That 14 hours without TikTok was too much to bear.

Happy Caturday's eve. Jimmy would like to say, "Hello!"

This isn't my first time traveling with a large clay brick. TSA always get very curious.

A few more photos from my adventures on the Olympic Peninsula today.

I made it to Kalaloch. These are those rocks on my cover photo.

This is the Blewett Pass camera and RWIS on US 97 at the summit. This weather station had a webpage and was one of the first websites I worked on professionally. The current incarnation can be found here: wsdot.com/travel/real-...

I'm so sorry for anyone who had to see that ugliness in real time. I honestly don't know how public things are here. For now, accounts have been blocked and posts have been deleted.

While working my way though food I cannot get on the East Coast, I almost forgot to get chicken teriyaki. This is from Original J's about a mile from my old house in East Wenatchee.

What do you do when someone uses your photo to fund raise off of your dead friend? There is a GoFundMe up that is using this photo (with me cropped out of course). The person who created it treated my friend like garbage for decades. She used my photo because she didn't have any of him of her own.

Annual morbidity in the 20th century, before and after vaccines: Measles: Before: 530,000, After: 47 Mumps: Before: 160,000, After: 429 Rubella: Before: 50,000, After: 3 Diphtheria: Before: 20,000, After: 2 Smallpox: Before: 30,000, After: 0 Polio: Before: 16,000, After: 0

I went to my dad's grave today. I also got to hang out with this lovely cat, Hazel. I'm going to miss Hazel.

I've spent so much of my life here. My adolescence, teenage years, my first first marriage. And now there is almost nothing of it left for me. This is likely the last time I will come here.

Two things I can get on the East Coast, a Joe's Special from The 13 Coins (with actual hash browns) and adobo and pancit from Oriental Mart Filipino Restaurant in the Market.

Heading to my old to haunt. Belltown? The Hill? Not sure yet. I left Seattle in June of 2019. This week is Amazon's first week return to office. It's like I never left.

I guess I'm live blogging this trip. JFK --> SEA

Saddened to learn of the passing of my old friend. @carl-brian-potter.bsky.social

I just realized adding your domain as your username is the way Bluesky verifies your account. Now, I wonder why so many prominent accounts haven't done this yet.

Jimmy, on the wall mounts ready to pounce. #catsofbluesky #caturday

Peace on Earth, goodwill to cats.

A cat I met in Stone Town, Zanzibar. She was cleaning herself after heavy rain. I don't know her name, or even if she has one, but I've been calling her 'mama' in my head. #catsofbluesky #catsofzanzibar #zanzibar

Come join us this evening. I will be sharing my story along with other RfR volunteers.
