🚨 QUESTION PROMPT 🚨
What was your first automobile?
1955 Oldsmobile Rocket 88. I put two motors in it, painted it three times, and it taught me everything I know about basic automotive mechanics. I had it for 30 years.
Here it is (right) as a "picture car" in the film "The Secret Life of Bees."

RIP to my father's life's work.
Over the holidays, the administration quietly initiated a review of all Wildlife Refuges, something that could preface yet another attempt to steal your land: open.substack.com/pub/wessiler...

I have to believe in a future where the last Thern is strangled with the entrails of the last Dilbert.
This thought has been lingering in my head for a while but this tweet prompted me to write it out.

I don’t know how to do words about how amazing the ring @solarfish.bsky.social had commissioned for me by @dirigibledesigns.bsky.social is. An opal he sourced from Australia and Fordite from a Jeep plant in Ohio. I’m in love.
