Thanks to @reportersteven.bsky.social, to whom I now owe a life debt, I finally have my grubby mitts on the new Master and Commander 4k ultra HD edition! 😍💖

A trip to Long Beach, Washington obviously isn't complete without visiting my lifelong friend, Jake the Alligator Man! 🐊❤️ He lives at Marsh's Free Museum, one of our most foundational cultural institutions in the country.

I had the distinct pleasure to spend World #TsunamiDay in Long Beach, WA yesterday, including a VERY windy visit to North Head Lighthouse. I visited this light so often with my parents as a child and it features in my memorial tattoo for my father. It's always an honor to be in its presence!

More amanitas because they are my 💖 favorites 💖 and I usually never see them! #FungiFriends 🍄

For one of my seminary classes I had to make a vision board of how I imagine my future ministry. I'm not a fan of vision boards bc they're never aesthetically pleasing, so I made this collage. It represents the influence of the gods, ancestors, and deep time on my spirituality. #WitchSky #Chaplaincy

Here's your happy for the day. This lil guy came to us from a bad situation and is very scared of humans. However, he was so jealous of his brother getting cuddles that he overcame his fear and let me put him in my lap. He even fell asleep! #CatsOfBluesky 🥺😭❤️

I'm reconfiguring my altar space, which means everything had to go somewhere in the in-between, and thus I currently have a sort of pagan-themed I-Spy vibe going. I kinda like it. 😂🤷 #WitchSky

Painting at the house means pets trapped in my office, and the opportunity for a very well-timed photo.

At an outreach event, so of course I have my requisite multiple queer person drinks.

My mom said we could run away into the forest and never be seen again if it's okay with your mom.

Said hello to Cascadia today. She responded by giving my legs a good soaking.

Had this exact experience and had to capture it in meme form. #WitchSky will understand.

I'm really heartbroken and full of rage at our world right now, so I'm consciously setting it aside to share something joyful with you. Our current foster kittens are Cabbage and Gulliver. They just met and were both singlets before....

Y'all gonna be hella jealous of the new patch on my work bag. 😎
