The first Caturday of November
An orange creamsicle striped kitty is pillowed ona very soft light green microfiber blanket. He is sleeping with great commitment, and has one paw crossed over the other the better to pillow his chin. His nose is buried in the supporting paw. Little kitty toes are prominent.

honk if you love relational aesthetics
A close up of an old fashioned, dark red car bumper with square tail lights of the 80s or 90s. A white bumper sticker written in simple, sans serif black capitals says HONK IF YOU LOVE RELATIONAL AESTHETICS

Spookier and spookier
A jack'o'lantern is carved with a round backed cat silhouetted against the full moon. It glows with warm orange light of a candle lit within. Beside the pumpkin, a skeleton frog with a spider in its mouth, and a little lantern with a witch stirring a cauldron in front of demonic red light. A cold brew coffee drink topped with bright green matcha cream. The green extends in spooky tendrils down to the dark coffee below. It's called a Zombie Brew!

The drone parts:
Gary Larsen's "Far Side" cartoon, Cow tools. A cow stands on two legs in a large field, barn in the background, looking inscrutably at a rustic table with four strange, squishy, vaguely tool shaped objects. One is like a melting saw, one a long stick with two curled prongs on the end. The last are two round blobs, one of which has an irregular, oblong protrusion.

No Kings in Oakland
Arriving at Lake Merritt BART the entire train was packed to the gills and we flowed into an endless sea of people walking towards the lake and that's when I found the brass band which made my day

No Kings in California
No ICE in California
A "Don't Tread on Me" style cardboard image. The snake is wearing a red hat, has an x for its eye, and being savaged in a rather bloody manner by a California brown bear. Pink letters say "Fuck MAGA" across the top, and a call-out says " GET ICE OUT OF CA"

No Kings in Oakland
A child crosses a downtown Oakland street in a crosswalk while holding up a sign that says "My Skin Color is Not Your Enemy" and has a brown hand right in the middle

A person in a cowboy hat, shades, and bandana is also wearing an inflatable that makes it look like they are riding a cool rainbow angry chicken. They are walking in a street in downtown Oakland in an endless sea of people, and their group is holding some signs. One just says NO in large letters. The other says "Protesting A King Is Literally The Most American Thing You Can Do!"

A street in downtown Oakland full of people walking along the road and sidewalks. In the distance, an American flag and a Trump Baby balloon. In the foreground, two beautiful signs. One says No Capitulation To Autocracy. The other says "Dad raised us ANTIFA ...since 1943!" and features a large black and white photo of a young WWII vet.

No Kings in Oakland
A small group of people sit on an official government building steps and hold signs. One says "No KKKings". Another is an Obama HOPE style poster except it says HOP and features a Portland frog. It is beautifully made. The last, held by a woman in heart shaped yellow shades and a unicorn hat, has Stephen Miller looking hateful and placed in the "Are We The Baddies?" Mitchell and Webb meme, with the caption Fascism is BAD

On the way to #NoKings #Oakland
This Bart train is absolutely packed with joyous protest energy!
A shot facing down to display the hem of a denim skirt, Monarch butterfly pattern Dr. Marten boots, and an artistically lettered cardboard sign that says WE THE PEOPLE!

On top of a tall rhiolite boulder, a beautiful chestnut brown shepherd husky mix dog blissfully smiles while overlooking the East Bay, San Francisco, Golden Gate Bridge, and a layer of fluffy storybook clouds. Chestnut brown shepherd dog's dark brown muzzle and snoot coming in for a doggy kiss with a loving eye and soft triangle ear. Blue sky all around.

Alameda
A close up of a beautifully made manhole cover. It says EMPIRE FOUNDRY on the outermost part of the circle, top and OAKLAND on bottoms. Next outermost is a circle of 18 stars. Within that, a circle of thick 12 circles, and an innermost ring of 6 circles. The lines of the sidewalk cracks radiate out from it, as it has been placed at the corner of four sidewalk squares. A beautiful brown shepherd dog with an icy blue eye lies happily by the curb, in the deep shade of the awning of Neptune's. There is an adorable take out counter, a dark blue wall, and big windows. Another dog eagerly waits near the restaurant door.

A group of ripe raspberries, and one pale unripe berry, hanging fat on the end of a tall raspberry cane. The end of the bare brown cane sticks out of the green thicket and bisects a triangle of impossibly blue sky in the upper right.

A light green tomato vine is in the foreground, encircling two juicy red tomatoes in the center. One has a streak of yellow orange down its side.

A close up photo of a juicy, bright red raspberry glistening in the sunshine. A smaller, hard yellow green berry is still forming next to it. The berries are sheltered by a sunlit, sawtooth edged green leaf.

Good morning Blue Sky. It will be one of the hottest days of the year today. The Bay Area is entering its hot, dry fire season now.
A plain glass with finger indents is set upon an old worn dark wood table. It is filled with iced coffee still separated into three layers -- cream, coffee, and cream. Sunglasses and a half eaten banana are out of focus in the background.
