If you’re in Kaka‘ako Makai, look up at the sky right now. So many contrasting layers of cloud chaos. Amazing.

They didn’t put too much daikon in this time. It’s almost as if they were trying to subvert my photo mission. But you can see a little bit in there — and it’s plenty enough for flavor, with the amount of vinegar they use to pickle it and the carrots. 😊

Hey, @dc2go.bsky.social, they heard my call! 🤣🤣🤣

I miss you and the ability to spontaneously order a snack pack of falafels, Naf Naf Grill. 😭 I didn’t know I even missed you until I scrolled past this in my camera roll … sigh … but now I remember.

Double feature at the Lyric Opera of Chicago: Cavalleria Rusticana & Pagliacci!

You have to with this variety, apparently. Here’s a thing I made last year, I don’t remember why. 😊

I used to think that lava flows look best at night, but check out what USGS Livecam 3 had during the golden hour (about 30 minutes before sunset) from the southern rim of Halema‘uma‘u. Amazing stuff. #Kīlauea

New signage at The Queen’s Cancer Center. 👀

Meanwhile, up at Halema‘uma‘u, Kīlauea volcano is having a bad hair day. #relatable #V2camIsWorseAiya #Episode31

Excited for my friend Pavlos & his team at @medschool.umaryland.edu, who won a NIH TARGETED Challenge prize for “developing a novel method to deliver CRISPR genome editing tools across the blood-brain barrier.” Pavlos earned his PhD at the UH Cancer Center! 🌴

Still the Best. Intern. EVERRRRR!!! I need to stop calling Michelle that, but we’ve been all up in each other’s business since she was our undergrad summer intern 15 years ago. Now she’s Co-Chief of Advanced Practice Providers and a neurohospitalist nurse practitioner at HPH. 💙

The swagger of this cattle egret, high-steppin’ it in the Costco parking lot! 😂 Totally unphased by my shopping cart 🛒 or the vehicle rolling in our direction. No hustle whatsoever!

Just made it home in time for this!

It took 3 hours since I walked out of the building, but I made it to high-enough ground!

I know, I know … trying …

Achievement unlocked: I am now on Cooke Street. Where it seems no one has moved more than a car’s length in 15 minutes. … But I have officially cleared the intersection! Ish. Cleared-ish.
July 30, 2025 at 2:55 AM
I have not moved 10 yards in 20 minutes. This is like the NFL.

To quote the great philosopher Eric Cartman, “What incredible irony!”

Welp. DEFINITELY not tuning in to the Cubs game right now. 🫣 Billy Joel it is!
