Hey y’all! We have the friggin’ Northern Lights in North Texas. I’m losing my nerd mind with how cool this is and Susan would like for me to stop talking about it.

This month's experiment for @outsidemag.bsky.social: I spent a night with a team of professional ghost hunters in a condemned rectory. Happy almost-halloween! www.outsideonline.com/culture/essa...

Huge thank you @blairbraverman.bsky.social for trusting me with your dogs and Leap's story!! 💕 As a longtime uglydog, I couldn't be happier. Easily some of the best reference photos and videos I've ever gotten.

Love this idea that dogs are the official forest bathing pros.
I think Bucky was the best example of suburban forest bathing I’ve ever seen. He was always so happy to just lounge on the deck and enjoy the atmosphere.

My latest for Outside is an investigation into forest bathing, which all about finding nature where you can: "At the time, she was working with clients in care facilities. She started bringing in baskets of grass that they could step in with their bare feet." www.outsideonline.com/culture/essa...

Depends on the use, I think. Fabricating evidence to frame a very innocent, for example, would be BAD

But I think as long as you have Leap’s permission this particular example should be ok

Look at you Bler being all crafty 😉 🥰

Is it illegal to forge your dog's signature? Asking for an author.

For this month's experiment for @outsidemag.bsky.social, I tested out a sensory deprivation tank, along with special guest Sarah Marshall of @yourewrongabout.bsky.social. We both loved it?! www.outsideonline.com/health/welln...

A story from a few years back, when the team got caught in a whiteout blizzard. Hari is very old now, but he's still the sweetest gentleman I know.

"Survival stories are rarely about women, and even less often do they recognize traditionally female tasks as the actual work of survival — not decorations of life, but the fight for life at its most essential." Wow from @blairbraverman.bsky.social
