It could hardly be more Eastery than this. And I watched the great flock of free-range hens in the field by the reservoir get their breakfast feeding from men huddled up in thick hoodies, pleased to think I’ll buy some of their eggs on the way home.

Most prescient, clear/eyed work of writing I’ve read on reorg. Read it. Then act. “Call your senators. Call your representative. Not next week or later. Now. Tell them this is not a reorganization — it’s the destruction of a federal agency by executive fiat and that Congress must intervene.”

I'll keep my order light with a ham and pickle sandwich, a heart of lettuce salad, some hot tea and finish it off with whatever pie is the special of the day (I am hoping for rhubarb)

Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park is preparing for the next eruption of #Kīlauea volcano (ep. 44), increased visitation & potential for lava fountains & a wind shift from the south. If Kīlauea erupts during southerly winds it could cause volcanic gas (vog) & tephra to blanket the summit. IMG: #HVNP

Sometimes I wonder if working from home for so long has turned me into a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird. Then I remember that I have always been a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird.

You know how iPhone suddenly brings up some random “pictures of the day”? Here’s April 1, 2024. Rose Garden. 🪴 With grass and roses.

Drink The Sea finished our South American tour with a riotous three hour show in Sao Paolo, featuring Nando Reis. We then went into a studio in Sao Paulo to work on our next record. Saturday night after work, Barrett and I played with the great Silvia Machete.

Visiting old haunts hits very differently when you realize all the folks you could call and ask "Hey! Remember when we...". Particularly when the radio dj you're listening to spends half an hour remembering musicians we've recently lost. RIP Mary, George and Ken. 💜🎶🦋🎶 youtu.be/HcJn5FO51Ik?...
