I love bats! When I was little, every animal report for school was about bats. Currently my favorite is probably cats, but that’s because the ones I live with are a delight.

I’ve read enough history to know that we are in the midst of a collapsing empire. Find your people, protect the vulnerable, and let’s bring forward a more equitable future together.

Here’s a cat photo for ya. Artemis is “helping” me pack a dinner for work. (In reality, she’s cruising for cheese)

Just finished listening to the Krista Tippet interview of Joan Baez, and it was a balm. We must continue to make art, and sing, and dance as we fight for a more equitable future.
(And here’s some test prints I pulled earlier this week)
