I'm here for silliness and art and music and nature because everything doesn't have to always be awful. Witchy woman with music in my soul and the Pacific Northwest in my heart. Oh and I've worked in healthcare for 27yrs.

Sigmund Serverus Rickman "Ziggy Stardust" from the perspective of the lap and the snack servant. It's a tough life.
Black cat stretched out with his murder mittens in front of him, on a red blanket that's on a blue blanket on a lap. From the perspective of the lap, the fat butt of a black cat who is stretched out on a red blanket. Ears poking up and a fireplace and coffee table in the fuzzy background.

I just watched this episode for the first time and whooooo it hits.
Remember this: try
Manifesto - by Nemik There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this: Try.

I say let's go back to the old ways.
Picture of an opossum looking sad. Words above it: "when you find out they used to prescribe vibrators and cocaine for mental health issues but all your therapist will fixe you is a guided meditation video from YouTube"

I found out yesterday that this view that has been mine for the last decade is going to be demolished and a bunch (86) of townhouses are being crammed in. I'm sad. And sick to my stomach. There's a giant oak tree over there that is nearly 100yrs old and owls live in. We are destroying nature.
Picture of green grass, trees, horse pasture and a barn with a large oak that's nearly 100yrs old.

I keep forgetting that this was meant to be my non political account. Hard to separate when so many I love are directly harmed. Anyway, here's a picture of where I spent a while today making music. It's been a long time but this year my prompt was: Make Music. And art is resistance. So...
Two guitars and a xylophone hanging on a wall A computer screen full of stuff I barely understand but that makes music. Wires and decks and electronic stuff Ahhh that looks more like something I can play. Keyboard and more components of music recording.

It's my birthday today. I'm almost in my mid 50s and I'm tired. Last year I was nursing a dying cat and this year I am fending off one of the upper respiratory illnesses that's going around.
Today's meme is my mood for the foreseeable.
White background, black text: Sensitive, not soft. I'll deck you while I'm crying.

A Friday evening meme after a fucking monster of a week.
As someone with a birthday and anniversary at the end of the month it's particularly sucky this year after last year spending it watching my beloved cat die of lymphoma. This year we are watching the death of the country I live in. Cheers.
Black all caps lettering on a white background with faded edges Meme: My life is 50% wondering if it's too late to drink coffee and 50% wondering if it's too early to drink alcohol

Thursday morning meme.

Every now and then it's nice to pick your head up from your book, reacquaint yourself with the world, take a hard pass and immediately go right back to reading. Balance is important.

Ok fine. More memes.
A teacher told me not to worry about spelling because in the future there will be autocorrect, for which I am eternally grapefruit.

Started my day by reading "Hope" is the thing with feathers, by Emily Dickinson.
My act of opposition and resistance to the darkness is joy. And hope. 💛💐

Memes. The way I kept some semblance of sanity over in the book of faces was to post things that make me giggle. I'm continuing that here at my new virtual home.
Todays meme is just for Monday.
☕️
Picture of a pink sign on a steel door that says "REFUSE to be stored in black plastic sacks and placed in the containers provided." Caption reads "do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light"
