Hey, y’all. I’ve decided to start changin’ my relationship with social media and with my phone in general. This account will go away soon. I will continue some use of this app, but on @sequoia-pnw.bsky.social instead. If you wish to continue in contact, please follow me on that username or on IG.

Y’all. I grew a buncha basil over the winter. It’s time to make room for spring sowing, so I harvested it all and made homemade basil pesto for the first time ever.

Highlights from wandering outside yesterday - Crocus, wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox), and witch hazel.

I may actually be decoratin’ my place?

My plant shelves are a bit of a mess…but a pretty mess.

It’s that time. Be good gays and theys and do yer labs.

One of my childhood heroes.

It’s nice to come home from Mexico to the results of last fall’s efforts on my porch.

I’m not sure I’ve ever been so happy to be home. Loved my time away, but full of gratitude for home.

It’s a tropical downpour in Puerto Vallarta right now. Just bucketing it straight down. I got my porch door open so I can listen to it.

I’m bein’ told it’s weird that I like vinegar on my greens. It ain’t weird, right?

Reality settin’ in that tomorrow at this time I’ll be well on my way to Puerto Vallarta.

I’m fixing to take my first trip that’s for myself, without a partner or to take care of family, in at least 16 years. I’m a lil bit excited, a lil bit scared. I’ll probably be more on the excited side once I board my flight. I think.

Are you normal, or do ya mix potting soil in a mixing bowl in the kitchen sink like me?

Okay, the flowers of this orchid (a hybrid of Tolumnia and Rodriguezia) are pretty cute.

I checked out a book from the VPL for the first time.

Then and now: 21 versus 49.

The world just looks really stressful and hard out there right now. I couldn’t think of what to do, so I flagged down an old friend to make sure I told her I love her. I feel a teeny bit better.

Goofy chest day selfie.

Coupla orchids that tickled my fancy flowering in my grow area today.

I went for a nap and had a nightmare about wearing yellow sweats to the gym. After a set, I looked in the mirror and discovered my dick was out the fly of my sweats and no one said anything. I have no clue what this means.

I started typing a text response to a friend “awaits…” and autocorrect wanted the next word to be “cuddles” and frankly that’s about right.

I would like one (1) cabin weekend with snow and hot chocolate and cuddles, please.

One of my biggest problems when it comes to weight lifting is carbs. I really mostly don’t enjoy eating complex carbohydrate foods.

When the fur grabs the chain.

I could still level up.

Me: Why am I so fuckin’ hungry? Me: *looks at gym schedule …oh.

This. I’m goin’ extra early this month so I can get what I wanna get done, done…and leave room for some folks to maybe start new good habits.

One of my favorite things to do is to lay my head on my pillow, close my eyes, and say to myself, “The only thing you hafta do right now is breathe.” It’s so relaxing.

I’m beginning to stress mildly about how much I’mma fry in the heat in Puerto Vallarta at the end of the month.

Sunny here this mornin’

Birders are honestly very imaginative people. Like you see a small solid gray bird and they’re like, oh look, it’s a greater violet spit-tail garbletwunk, and you’re supposed to say, oh yeah, I can see where they got the name.

Friend: I made salmon and French green beans for supper Me: what makes ‘em French? F: the way they’re cut Me: if they’re French, I’d expect ‘em to be uncut

Happy perihelion! Perihelion: the closest to the sun we'll be during the year. Pairihelion: close to having two suns. Pearihelion: the sun is very fruity.

That thing when you really, really wish ya had a boy close by to [REDACTED]

hi, I’m birth

…interesting.

Since folks are postin’ their favorite nude of the year, here’s mine.

One time for World AIDS Day I went on the tee vee news to tell the whole damn state about havin’ HIV. Hadda tell my mama the night before so that wasn’t how she found out.

Again I say: Get the fuck outside.

I swear there’s mountains back there.

Pic 1: me posed in front of the view out over Vancouver from Queen Elizabeth Park. Pic 2: same, but more natural me - mouth open, spoutin’ some smartass bullshit.

I think I now have my capstone story for my dating history. It ends here. Anybody know any good monasteries?

License plates are tramp stamps for cars.

Welp…just hadda block my right wing dipshit brother on snap, so that’s how my day’s goin’

First sunrise after comin’ home is a banger

Anyone talmbout how a buncha dudes got into Heated Rivalry bc they were sold smut and realized they wanted love, and how that mirrors the gay experience for a lotta men?

Adding to the “voice reveal” madness. 🎤
