Yo Yo Ma is so compelling as an artist, because he radiates such warmth, joy, and sincerity. I always leave every interview of his feeling happier in my soul.

Put on a yellow rain coat and headset to sing and do my April ballad in the kitchen from the Coming Out Of Our Shells tour.

Don't let anyone dim your light, babes.
No matter how nonsensical.

Walked all over the house looking for my scrunchie.

...it was on my wrist.

A person whose opinion I respect deeply, said I'm a fuckin' rainbow. So you should watch this, because rainbows are awesome ❤️
It lives!

We talk about episode 26 of THE ADDAMS FAMILY; “Morticia The Breadwinner”.
We stay completely on topic and debate the show’s lore with the gravity it deserves.

Nah just kidding. We talk about pants.

Available everywhere you find your podcasts!

The lady in the documentary for this park just keeps saying things like, "what a great tree!", "it's so green!", "look at that water!"

I'd laugh, but I love her simple enthusiasm. Nature is pretty freaking great.

The vet didn't know how to pronounce our cat's name, "Mr. Mistofelees", and calls him "Mr. Mistletoe."

So we decided in November and December we call the cat "Mr. Mistletoe."

Nights like this are the best. All the trouble of the world is momentarily set aside while we're collectively marveling at the pretty lights and nature together. This is how it's supposed to be. Life, I mean. Shared joy and all. 🙂

Ugly Christmas Sweaters lost all meaning when they started marketing them specifically as ugly Christmas sweaters. Those are just nerd sweaters now. They don't hold a candle to Grandma's Fabric Paint Snowmen with the word "Blessed" in rhinestone that you find at the thrift store bc she died.

People on the internet: "I want to argue."
Me: Nah. *Turns on MASH*

Hey photographer friends.
The Glass website/app for photographers: any good? Worth being on there?

If anyone is a member and has seen some commercial benefit in being there, please let me know. Thanks.

I'm doing 70s Elvis, and my name is Pelvis Pressme.

A thing I just told my 18yo.

"I put a kazoo in my pussy during labor. Every time I pushed, circus noises let me know you were closer to coming out. Then finally my clown son was born. That's your origin story."

I'm one of those people who gets angered by excessive luxury. I am not impressed by it. I'm disgusted. I vehemently believe that rich people shouldn't exist and that they should be very afraid.

Either we are ALL free & cared for or no one is.

When I see the leaves change, I see the wisdom of being able to let go of what you don't need to survive the winter. I see the beauty of knowing that you can start again no matter how empty you temporarily will feel.

Watching out the window and checking out the graffiti.
Some of the best artists in the world are the ones we'll never see professionally. What a tragedy.

Other Asian girls: Effortlessly cool, chic.

Me: Looking like a 200 year old obaasan who has worn one pair of clothes for 100 years.

I am envious of people who are perfectly comfortable around other humans.

If you ride a train in the Midwest, there's a 100% chance that half of it will be filled with Amish people.

I haven't ate in 2 days. This Sbarro has no idea what's coming.

For 2 years, I haven't been able to lie flat to sleep. I still can't. But I'm hoping after all this treatment and surgery, I will finally be able to.

Was really struck by what a lovely inspiring exercise this is, like a primary school version of Mary Oliver’s Instructions for living a life
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it

I'm sorry that every time I wear a headlamp I pretend I have a laser eye and ask you to scream like you're burning.
