Happy Birthday to the very best @merideath.bsky.social ! Can't wait to see you this summer! Love you! 🌛

Maybe too much true crime if these are the things catching my eye at the beach this morning. Skeleton knife, gasoline & a crow!!!

Today— May 10 —marks the anniversary of the destruction of the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft, a pioneering clinic and library of human sexuality. Nazis looted and publicly burned its research, records and artifacts to bury evidence of trans/queer existence. The parallels today are unmistakable.

Pollen allergies in full force.🤧 My biggest trigger, jacarandas, have begun to bloom. Last year they bloomed through November. 🫣 +Yarrow +jasmine. Thank goodness the acacias are finished. #pollen #allergyseason #jacaranda #yarrow #starjasmine #flowers #allergies

Bath Day for Tess & Oswald Lee!

Oswald Lee deep snoozin'.

On dress hems...if the hem on the front of your dress is longer than the floor it becomes a tripping hazard. You can also step on it and rip or damage your dress.

As a tailor, I watched the MET gala red carpet with a very critical eye. The dress code was "tailored just for you". These are a few of the trouser hems that made me so sad. It's fine to max out your break but you should never be stepping on your hem. They will be ruined.

US pushes nations facing tariffs to approve Musk’s Starlink. Wow the corruption. An internal State Department memo lays it bare:“As the government of Lesotho negotiates a trade deal with the United States, it hopes that licensing Starlink demonstrates goodwill and intent to welcome U.S. businesses.”

Somehow, Trump has declared that we’re under numerous national emergencies from the Southern Border Emergency to the Energy Emergency, Trade Emergency, Public Lands Emergency, and Immigration Enforcement Emergency. Yet these crises seem so “urgent” that he finds time to golf every weekend. Odd.

Looking forward to watching this thedailytexan.com/2025/03/14/t...

I'm trying to watch Anora this morning and I am so fucking bored. And it's longer than 2 hrs. 🙈💀

Had a blast watching the musical At Long Last Love at the Frida as part of the At Long Last Longworth film series. Songs by Cole Porter & directed by Peter Bogdanovich. Starring Burt Reynolds, Cybill Shepherd, Madeline Kahn, Eileen Brennan, John Hillerman & Luigi Mangione look-alike Duilio Del Prete

Isabella Rossellini wearing BLUE VELVET tonight at the Oscars makes my heart happy. 🖤

Deleted last post and am reposting to add alt text which is extremely new to me. Bummed I can not go back to older posts to add alt text without having to delete & repost. I feel like that should be an edit feature.

Had a lot of fun watching this tonight.

Black Skimmers & Royal Terns (+a couple seagulls) on the Long Beach of Long Beach, CA today.

ALERT!!! Los Angeles, San Fernando Valley...

Mental health walk to the lagoon.

Where can I get a framed print?

Just so it's crystal clear, ABSOLUTELY 1000% FUCK THIS REGIME!!!

Second Murder She Wrote action figure arrived today. #murdershewrote #jbfletcher #jessicafletcher #angelalansbury #cabotcove

Woodland Wardens oracle card pull for Lunar New Year 2025: The Turtle 🐢 & Coriander 🌿, "Satisfaction".

Happy Lunar New Year! I woke up pissssssed instead scared this morning. Welcome the year of the green wood snake. Time to come out of hibernation and bite back for what is right. We can be flexible, molt & grow while holding our moral grounds. 🐍🐍🐍 Don't give up!

Trying to train myself to use BlueSky more. I signed up for Twitter in 2016 just so I could follow Alt National Parks but never used the platform so this platform style is new to me. Anyhoo, here are some pics from my mental health walk:

Had a delightful time watching Hitchcock's Torn Curtain at @vidiots.bsky.social last night, as part of the companion programming to the new season of the You Must Remember This Podcast. One thing is for sure, Paul Newman's Professor Armstrong is pretty terrible at being a spy.

Birds at the lagoon.
