Professional windmill tilter. Dragon boat captain. I believe BLM, we must protect trans kids, that MLMs suck, and that dogs are better than people. #lovelansing #michiganian 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🦖
Say hi to Lady Mae, the newest member of the family. She's a Black and Tan Hound and she's 4!

Took myself for a little stompy stomp in the woods with @fdora24.bsky.social tonight. #getoutside #lovelansing

If you need me, don't. I'm OOO for the next few hours. #adventures

Made it to 6,500' yesterday. My fat 54 year old self with a bionic knee and severe lupus busted my altitude record! My 79 year old Dad made the climb with me, stopping at 6,400'. #fuckofflupus #hiking #genx #maderacanyon #oldbaldy

Lunch with the parental units in the desert. Coctel with shrimps. Seriously tasty. #tgif #minivacation #genx

Workity work travel means a beer before noon and a three hour flight. (Have no fear, I'm taking it to a semi secret location so I'm not unmasked around the virus vectors!) #adventures

Checked out the "most haunted place in Michigan" today. Found some mushrooms, stompy stomped, and now I'm heading home for a nap. #7gables #hauntedwoods #getoutside #puremichigan #hike #mushroomhunting

Get outside (as you are able). Get off the pavement (as you are able.) Spend time in nature, people. It helps heal the damage done by fascists and Nazis. Took myself for a little stompy stomp in the woods, found mushrooms, and am now enjoying a beer. FDT FGOP FOWGS (in case you were wondering)

Since the world is falling apart, some of y'all think you're getting Raptured on Tuesday, and I've got jury duty this week, I decided to go for a hike and found some wee baby chicken of the woods. They're now in my fridge. You're welcome.

The world is falling apart, so I went for a hike in the woods. Please enjoy two of my many goddogs and their indie band cover art. I'll be accepting no criticism of the bestest puppies.

Why yes, my t-shirt days "Everybody loves someone who's had an abortion." Also, look a bit of a mess but I stopped caring thanks to the We Do Not Care Club.

The world is falling apart faster than we can process, so I go to the woods to find my peace and strength for the fight ahead. #getoutside #lovelansing

Old Baldy, baby! Made it up another 100' in elevation. One of these days, I'll make it all the way up. Sitting in the parking lot of the Coronado National Forest, making my #5calls. No excuses, people.

It's 102° and I'm hot. It's pigtails and aircon. I did find time to make my five calls and i took my Mom out for crepes. As one does.

A little desert sunset to cleanse the palate of the hellscape these United States have become. #nofilter #southernarizona

Taking an extra long layover in the desert to see the parents after a week in the PNW. As one does. Allegedly, it's going to rain. No way to know for sure what with the Fourth Reich demolishing the NWS and NOAA.

So yeah, I went for a hike and came back to find out that the House 💩🤡 passed the aBBBomination. Budgets are a moral document. If you voted for any Rs or 3rd party, this is your fault.

When I say I'm not a cat person, I mean all cats that aren't actually a puppy cat like Mittens. After some cuddles, he's now trying to eat my ponytail.

So I'm speaking at this tonight. You know, as one does. Plus I made my five calls. How about you? #savedemocracy

So many virus vectors wandering around these days. My survival kit includes a well fitted KN95, Pride shades, and the ability to read men for filth in 20 seconds. As one does.
May 28, 2025 at 3:30 PM
Yes, I'm at a conference and I brought my emotional support notebook. I also made my #fivecalls to #savedemocracy. How about you?

I went for a hike. Found a few mushrooms. Made my five calls to save democracy. As one does. Photo credit (and mushroom finding skills): @fdora24.bsky.social #getoutside

Took one of my niblings for sushi the other night and did my #fivecalls while awaiting our food. Also, mushroom rolls are the only superior veggie rolls. I said what I said.

Found some great mushrooms in a #lovelansing park. Served them with ramp pesto pasta. Now that's an #eatlocal dinner. Did you make your #fivecalls to save democracy? I sure did.
