Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

Don't miss tonight's celestial show...🌕🪐

The Corn Moon, our last full moon of summer, will rise in total lunar eclipse...glowing deep red as a Blood Moon.

Catch it climbing the horizon from 19:30, with Saturn shining close by, shining brighter than usual.

Notable clip today👇 in light of the news that the Trump administration successfully pressured ABC into suspending Moran
Reposting by request the exchange from Trump's ABC interview about Abrego Garcia's tattoos here on Bluesky 👇👇👇

TRUMP: He had MS-13 on his knuckles, tattooed!

MORAN: That was photoshopped

TRUMP: Terry, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime. I picked you. But you're not being very nice.

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

Tonight, look for May's full moon: the Milk Moon. 🌕🐄

An Anglo-Saxon name, it nods to a time when cows were milked three times daily thanks to lush spring pastures.

Its Native American names, Flower Moon, & Budding Moon, also celebrate spring's abundance.
