“He’s laughing again.” Spouse, worried. “Isn’t there anything we can do?” “I know,” I said, “he’s just not himself. No moaning, no chain rattling, just this happy laugh. Maybe dress up in bed sheets and turn the lights off?” Anything to help Xy, our pet ghost, get well again. #vss365

Who could this be? Hmm…

“The main event is this: the world is building optionality away from U.S. policy and platform dependence. And once you see it, you can’t unsee it — because it’s showing up in procurement decisions, supply chains, defense budgets, and capital flows”

Meanwhile at the light at the end of the tunnel….

“First World Problems.” Y’know, like fascism.

May I tempt you to some Oslo photography on an early Sunday? Oslo has been home for almost four decades. Familiarity might breed contempt, but I use my camera(s) to keep that particular wolf from the door. This is the first installation of … many. #photography

Moving more electricity use off-peak could save the country up to $3 billion and transform the energy system in the process. The study found New Zealand could, through fully exploiting modern technologies, lower electricity use at the busiest times by up to 25%. www.eeca.govt.nz/about/news-a...

Make Art Angry Again.

Something I've greatly enjoyed recently as I think more about my carbon imprint is fixing and refurbishing old, damaged rings until they're beautiful again.

If journalism becomes a crime, fascism isn’t coming. It’s already here.

I finally have a nice LeGrand crinoid piece. This Mississippian aged site in Iowa is famous for crinoids with preserved color. The darker crinoid is Rhodocrinites kirbyi and the lighter one is Platycrinites symmetricus. #FossilFriday

Hey… if you’ve been carrying more. Not all at once — just in pieces. A thought didn’t finish. A feel set aside so things kept moving. Nothing dramatic. Just a quiet weight. This is a place where that weight can sit for a bit. This is Ink Radio. Let’s pass on music. So peeps stay human.

Alright… if you’re here cuz today asked you to keep it together a little longer than felt fair, you don’t have to do that right now. Let your face relax. Let the quiet parts show up. The music’s good company for that. This is Ink Radio. You don’t have to perform here.

Owliver decided to fly to another branch and check things out. He can look in my window from this spot! #Birds #Raptors #Nature #Photography

Australia Day, it was of course a BBQ, I focused on the salad. The salad I decided on was a nice watermelon & feta, with sliced red onion in lime, black olives, spring onion, parsley & mint with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. In a 38 degree Melbourne day.

“Got to accept your chaos, ma. Learn to dance with it.” A not nearly so dark or violent issue of Grimjack as one would expect. Almost cheerful really, when compared to every other issue before it. This look on the last panel of the last page has me thinking things will ramp back up quickly though!

terrible time to be an empathetic person who hates hypocrisy

I'd rather be talking about the mysteries of the universe than thinking about the stupidity of this world.

how about an #OrangeSun #SundayYellow #rose from #Filoli for #ColorADay 🌱 #JBCFlowers

Interesting. Here’s a link. youtu.be/aeDF_OvQtPk?...

Shoutout to everyone out there making music, making art, and otherwise being creative. Much love and respect.

Behold Such majesty

You can't be neutral to fascism.

I’ve been chronicling my return to guitar competency after years of not playing regularly. This is OK’er. Everything is awful and we get to have some joy.

Mood in Nuuk, Greenland today.

We have discovered a planet. A beast lives there that moves like a cheetah with wary appendages. We could voyage there on a rainbow. We could live there, perhaps.

Some Americans still think they're gonna have more elections, lol.

“I got some things to take care of before I check out. And you’re at the top of the list.” It’s rare I share a cover, but when it came to this issue’s showdown between Grimjack and Skorzny - as good as the interior art was - nothing matched the perfection of what Flint Henry did here on the front.

Art is resistance. Keep making it! ✨

If this is what they do when they're out on the street with people pointing cameras at them, what do you think is happening inside the ICE prison camps that they keep denying Members of Congress access to?
