I always make the resolution to eat better/cook more/get healthy... AKA the classics. But as the great @hilgoldstein.bsky.social once said, "Resolutions are stupid. Just do the thing."
So I'm going to do the thing and post the good food in this thread so I don't forget. Anyway, here's Wonderwall...

I have been really enjoying being part of a co-op. I've been eating more fruits and veg, it has been easier for my brain to meal plan, AND we have been saving a lot of money.
I'm housesitting in a home with a great kitchen this weekend, and their pets have been excellent sous chefs. This is my joy

Izzy stole my breakfast kolache. Look at those claws! She got a taste of the peach jelly and I've never seen her tail puff up so quickly. #catsofbluesky #petsofbluesky 🐈🐈⬛🐱

I don't use #GoodReads for much beyond the #books Choice Awards.
WOOF. Did AI populate the choices? No cool finds, no new/returning categories, no surprises beyond the usual seventh in a series or a well past their prime author. And still so many books out of their proper category!
Disappointed 💙📚

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

A call out and a call to action that I felt in my bones. With all the radio static we have these days, the clarity of Eileen Gonzalez's writing is a breath of fresh air.
Shame on DC Comics and shame on everybody else who thinks criticizing Nazism is worse than Nazism

DC Comics fired Gretchen Felker-Martin, but go ahead and read all you want from the bullying and predatory people DC employed over the years.

Top 10 Rally Reminders for #NoKingsDayOct18th
I know today is a big day for a lot of #TaylorSwift fans, but y'all...
I've been waiting to be seen at the pulmonologist's for an hour. The nurses were finally able to get ahold of my doc who apparently said "Sorry, 'Showgirl' just released this morning and made me forget I was in clinic today."

If you were concerned about Kimmel, here's another for you…
Journalist Mario Guevara has been detained for 100+ days, ironically arrested as he reported on a "No Kings" protest.
The Trump-Vance admin just issued an order of final removal, to send him to El Salvador—where he fled from 21 years ago.

After the VA Tech shooting, a guy came on the UVU campus, armed to the teeth with guns, to protest his right to bear arms. I remember hiding behind chairs as he walked through the Hall of Flags, holding a stranger because we were sure we were about to die.
The IRONY of today shouldn't be lost.

Salt Lake City has a innovative food scene, especially for a city that still thinks it is a small town.
Blatch's Vegan BBQ is part of that story.
They've worked hard to make compassionate food accessible. They help others with mutual aid- time to show up for them.

I get to go home earlier than expected from petsitting today! Even though I love these sweet babes, it will be so nice to have three full days at home before I'm back out on the road again. #petsofbluesky #dogsofbluesky #catsofbkuesky
