At 211 degrees, water is just hot.

At 212 degrees, it boils and creates steam.

With steam you can move a locomotive.

With steam, you can create power.

211 is fine. 212 is power.

1 extra degree changes everything.

Aisle seats are $104 now “for convenience.” Translation: you pay extra so everyone who bought the $80 seats can climb over you.

Is this just another money grab that becomes normal?

Pay $24 more, or save it and crawl over the rich folks?

I’m torn.

Walked past this #Seattle window and got hit with: “Everything is art. Everything is politics.” Just trying to get lunch, ended up in a philosophy class. Low-budget, high-impact, my favorite kind.

Heard a crashing noise outside my office, looked out, and found two turkeys perched on my fence, puffed up and performing for a totally unimpressed female nearby.

Soaring with eagles in their minds. Still turkeys in life.

For the first time, the #AARP model is actually my peer. I joined well before 50, but seeing 57-year-old #BrendanFraser makes it feel official. Pro tip, you can join at 18. Life is expensive right now, so there is no reason to leave discounts on the table.

A quiet reminder to unclutter our minds every once in a while. To take a deep breath, look around, appreciate the simple reality right in front of us. Sometimes, true happiness isn't in the things we are chasing, but in the company we are currently keeping.
In the right here, right now.
Be present.

But… but… Trump did a physical impersonation of a person with a disability and he became president, so…

The window at Neato Burrito in #Spokane is doing the heavy lifting today. I am happy to spend my cash where human rights outrank corporate branding. It is a simple formula: share my values, get my business.

Yes, that’s a giant joint.
Yes, I stopped for a photo.
Yes, I’d do it again.

Life’s too short to skip the fun stuff.

We were promised lower prices.
We got tariffs, higher costs, and a dollar whispering, “We need a revolution.”

Tariffs are paid by consumers. Medical care is soaring. New cars are out of reach for most people.

Funny how the bill tells the truth.

The irony of modern politics is trying to claim a figure who spent his entire life challenging authority and advocating for the poor. It turns out the original message was a lot more radical than most people’s current comfort levels allow for.

"Prove me wrong."

Trannyshack. What an awesome name for a joint.

I kept staring at this painting of a ship before it gets hit with tariffs, resulting in higher prices for consumers and trying to figure out who proudly hangs this on a wall. A #shipping company? A shipbuilder?

"I asked the committee for one, they gave it to her and she gave it to me. I have a Nobel" is not technically lying in his book.

Can I get one of your Golden Globes? I have always wanted one but have never acted a day in my life, but @barbrastreisand.bsky.social and @markruffalo.bsky.social have them and I really want one, so... 🤬

Found a 2026 training manual in the form of a board game. Between social media, #FoxNews, and the crap from #DC, this isn't a game anymore, it's just another day.
I could call "Crap" on every news segment and win by default.
Best $2.99 reality check yet.

Except... perhaps the #InsurrectionAct could be used to postpone/cancel #MidtermElections?

Standing in Encino, hearing Frank Zappa and Moon Unit in my head. The Valley changed, the vibe didn’t.
