Are we in mercury retrograde or what? Everything seemed to stop working at the same time. Wahhh!

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected 43 days ago. Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files.

Seattle friends, do me a favor and vote for Katie Wilson. I want a mayor who's a renter and transit rider like me. I want a mayor who's actually a progressive like the world assumes we have here. We could have a mayor trying to make the city better instead of cowering to cops and developers.

Working on a one page comic with my 10-y-o depicting an Argentinian #humanoid encounter that happened on my birthday. I am well aware how lucky I am. #albertsrosales #ufo

Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social

Decided to use this 1898 grammar book from my mother’s book shelf to finally bone up on grammar. “How fleet is a glance of the mind !” I mean, come on ! That there makes me want to learn about exclamatory sentences !

Just some beasties

It’s a weird thing when you google the stranger that sold you an old fountain pen on eBay and discover they are a journalist who is a political dissident in their Turkish homeland. Welp, I guess I’m gonna buy another pen from them.

Just had my brother look for proof of my G-ma’s dual citizenship. Nice that they recorded her complexion on her certificate of citizenship. 🤮

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Rainy windstorm. Sleeping is going to be a challenge tonight. I’m not used to the sounds and realities of wind interacting with an evergreen forest. Could a falling tree reach me and my Airstream? Or the new shelter I built to park it under? Sounds like the wind wants to pull the aluminum roof off.

Yay! It’s rough skinned newt season! I will continue my pledge to not consume them lest I die from the most toxic animal in North America.

The only truly ethical response that a self-described artist can make. Anything else is a betrayal of one's colleagues.

This is an international disaster. They targeted a disabled fishing boat in Colombian territorial waters and killed fishermen.

Only my brother would have a Pope-ener

Someone at work left some of those little red wax-wrapped cheeses in the fridge, so I fashioned some of the wax into a crude miniature Captain Marvel (a Little Red Cheese).

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DV1 “No Kings Day” 😃Friends, thank you for making it Peaceful, Powerful, and Fun. You’re beating the regime’s effort to frame it as hateful and violent. 🙏Stay Safe

One of the coolest posts I’ve seen on Reddit www.reddit.com/r/UnusualIns...

Louis Leaky chose his primatologist researchers better than he ever could have imagined.

Thinking of playing a protracted game of chess—my over-caffeinated self vs. my high self.

I've been waiting all year to repost this 🎃

Getting over my societal mycophobia. Eating the chantrelles I picked last weekend. I guess I started with a pretty safe mushrooom.

cackling

Had a very successful day yesterday of attempting a mushroom hunt with my son, almost getting lost in the woods and hiking way longer than expected. 🍄

ABOLISH ICE. What more do Americans need to see?

*flips hair*

I’ve discovered the lazy person’s deviled eggs. Just peel that hardboiled egg with a bottle of sriracha on hand.

TIL that there’s an artist in residence program at the University Street Bridge in Seattle, a collab between the Seattle Office of Arts and Culture and the Seattle Department of Transportation!

D’s Squonk drawing from this morning.

(And cancel your subscription until they do.) Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...

Today I learned that banana slugs can be used as a topical analgesic if you brush up against a stinging plant. Thanks, Gene, at South Sound Mishroom Club! #pacificnorthwest

Larry Tesler, inventor of the cut, copy, and paste commands, dies at 74

I can’t get behind any animal skeletons with ears. Nope. Unless it’s in an early b&w cartoon.

Truth bomb‼️ This man should be the one speaking on college campuses… “They’re planning for us to turn on each other and make this culture war a civil war. I am begging you, please, for the love of God, for the love of our neighbors… do not take the bait.” Watch

Building was cancelled for the rest of the day, so I write!

Just realized the cowboy lights above the bunks are praying. 🙄

I didn’t think I could handle 4 hours of creative writing but somehow I did it 2 days in a row. Me-1, ADHD-0

Yes, I’m carrying a hackysack in my fannypack. I am a product of my time.

Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio had a budget of $35 million and every single character was moved one frame at a time by a human being. What the fuck are we even doing!!!!!!!

Stabbed my hand with a fork so I know how profoundly human I am.
