I hike & marvel at God’s trees, hills, & water. I love board games, puzzles, & RPGs. The best dance parties are house parties.
I’m seeking hope (US govt).
My goal is to spread good energy with kindness, prayer, & love.

After not being on a bike for years, rode 6 miles yesterday and 6 miles today.
My bottom is not saddle-ready. My bottom is sore. I’m reminded of this Calvin & Hobbes strip:

I wonder if Donald has seen the holocaust museum.
NBC news headline from Aug 18, 2025. “Trump says the Smithsonian focuses too much on ‘how bad slavery was’.
It isn’t too much. It is clear we need more education on how bad slavery was.

Incredibly great energy at DC Pride. My friend gave ‘mom hugs’. Many churches marched with various forms of “Jesus loves you” signs. PFLAG with strong numbers. Seniors who paved the way.
I cried with joy at the size of the ‘family area’ at the festival.
We’ve come a long way, baby. Happy Pride.

Gay/trans teens have a higher rate of suicide. They need to know there are decent people who love and support them.
Our voices need to drown out the hateful messages in the news and media.
Tell them “You are loved. You deserve love.”

Hey friends. Weekend!Even if you end up working, make plans to do -something- for yourself.
Ideas: Go for a walk. Check out new music. Call a friend. Browse a bookstore. Check out local art (or online art if you can’t get out).
Me? I’m gonna bike with friends and check out local sites.

Whether you believe “Love thy neighbor” or you’re into “being a good person”, kindness spreads good energy!
Hold a door. Say please. Let the other car in (& withhold from the horn). Tell someone ‘good job’. Listen harder & don’t interrupt.
(I’m working on the horn thingy & on not interrupting).
