Discovered I'm a Doobie Brothers fan. Also discovered the band is not named for the brothers Doobie. Nor for the phrase doobie doobie do.

2024 is not done dropping bombs, y'all.

4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day.

On popular request, I shall now recreate the livetweet thread from that day

So gather around children, for this is the tale of The Rice Truck Saga

In the 6th century, a sailor threw a bottle at a whale off the coast of Constantinople.
In response,the whale spent the next 50 years sinking so many ships off the Byzantine coast it was named Porphyrios after the giant who attacked Olympus & the Emperor unsuccessfully dedicated his reign against it

Happy Winter Solstice! Only one month until the sun sets after 5pm. Summer countdown begins tomorrow. Here's to piping hot days, cool lakes, and denim skies.

Hey folks—if you type “thank my driver” in the search bar on Amazon, and click the “Thank my driver” bar that pops up after you search, they are tipping the driver of your recent order $5.

I’m shocked, but it works.
Please tip delivery workers, especially at this time of year.

It is that time of the year again, northern hemisphere friends!

Let the dark be a time of rest and comfort, and if it is not, please remember:

Ugh, another elbow-patched, turtleneck-wearing self-appointed Serious Man with Serious Opinions. Fuck off, keep fucking off until you reach a gate with the sign NO FUCKING OFF PAST HERE, climb over the gate, dream the impossible dream and keep fucking off forever.

Happy 15th birthday to the best boy! He may have gotten a little wobbly, but he’s still as sassy, stubborn, and handsome as ever.

It’s really frustrating to see people repeatedly believing that paying people more means higher-priced products and services, when lower profits and CEO pay is *right there*

Peaceful day at the mountain spent wandering through the trees, perfect for unwinding mental knots and unkinking creative pathways. Haven’t written in weeks, but just started mapping a new story. I’m excited to see how it comes to life!

If you haven't seen the donated items on offer at this charity auction (to benefit the Ashland, MA public library), you should take a peek. There is a LOT of amazing stuff up for bids, some of which I'm eyeing HUNGRILY.

I lurked on TwiXer for years. After a few days here, I actually want to post and connect with other people. It's weird, but not bad weird. Any other lurkers feel compelled to interact for once?
