Made a dinner of pork chops and potatoes on Monday with Melisa. And of course we had to stop for selfies. Wanna come over for dinner some time?
I'm in the foreground while my girlfriend is sidled up next to me with her mm across my shoulder. We're both making silly faces. In the background, potatoes are boiling on the stove top.

The world sucks, but there's still beauty. Here's the view that greeted me as I opened the front door this morning
A view from my wooden front porch, looking onto a lush green jungle front yard with tropical plants and tall trees in the background.

Dim sum for a weekend brunch
Two people, the main subjects are to the left and right of the photo. The dim sum is in the lower middle foreground while the background shows tables full of other diners

Got to explore Melisa's neighborhood, including her favorite restaurants and parks. This city is so alive!

She is beauty and grace

Crickett leapt from the bed after noticing a lizard visitor in the upper corner by the ceiling.
Crickett, a calico kitty, sits on the back of a couch that's draped with a fuzzy blanket. She's looking up into the far corner of the ceiling, where a tiny lizard is gripping the wall. The scene is dimly lit from the side hallway, and the lizard is shadowed and hard to spot.

Crickett loves the new place, BTW
My sweet kitty, mi princesa, Crickett, is exploring the new digs. She sits on a tile floor in a dark doorway at night.

Lookit this lil banana
It's a banana. BUT, it's super little. A hand is holding it, and the banana could be completely hidden within the grip. Because it's so dang little!

Mornin, dorks!
A white bearded man with short cut hair looks into the camera. He wears a black shirt with a stylized face on it and the words "be a better human". He is outside, lit by sunlight. Two clothes lines with clothes pins hang overhead. A grey brick wall draped with foliage is behind him. Blue sky with fluffy clouds above.

I just learned about smoothie bowls, and they are amaaaaazing
On a wooden table is a smoothie bowl, and around it is a clear glass of water, a water bottle, sunglasses, floppy wide brim hat, and a folded orange tote bag. Beside the bowl is a spoon on a napkin. Within the bowl is a berry - acai smoothie, topped with round orange colored fruits (called "nance", I believe), sliced banana, sliced strawberry, shards of coconut, cashew butter, and ground almonds.

At the old place, dug up some remnants of a past life. I don't recognize that person anymore.
Senior Airman patches for Air Force dress blues. They have a blue background with a white star in the middle. Three white stripes extend from each side of the star like wings.

This socked me in the gut, from "One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This"
No, there is no terrible thing coming for you in some distant future, but know that a terrible thing is happening to you now. You are being asked to kill off a part of you that would otherwise scream in opposition to injustice. You are being asked to dismantle the machinery of a functioning conscience. Who cares if diplomatic expediency prefers you shrug away the sight of dismembered children? Who cares if the great distance from the bloodstained middle allows obliviousness? Forget pity, forget even the dead if you must, but at least fight against the theft of your soul.

My favorite silver coin. I keep it nearby.
Octagonal silver coin with a stylized skull and the words "Memento Morí", which means "remember that you must die" Other side of the same silver coin with a differently designed stylized skull and the words "Memento Vivere", which means "remember that you must live"
