Quirky, fun-loving, introspective. I share my life with my husband Chris and dogs and cats.
I'm madly in love with my life, my family, and the blessings I've been given.
My rules are simple. To thine ownself be true and don't be an intentional dick.

we're so far into late stage capitalism that I now wish I spent more time paying attention to those videos of East Asian men building shit in the woods with just mud and a trowel.

Legit how I spent my morning:
*Drinking coffee
*Playing Queens and Zip on *Linkedin to wake my brain up
*Reading my horoscope
*Pulling one card from tarot deck
*Watching a beefy tall drink of water from Northern California split huge chunks of wood with an axe on Tik Tok, for, uh, reasons.

The biggest problems I faced in Portland when I visited was getting the bathroom code at the Whole Foods store downtown near Powell's Books, finding parking at the Japanese Tea Garden, and picking the right Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley wineries. #Portland

Just crossed state 48 of 50 off the list with a trip to Utah. Have to say it's been one of my favorite vacations ever.
We did the Big 5 national parks: Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Arches and Canyonlands.
We also added Goblin Valley State Park and Monument Valley

1/Google has announced a decision that will end up giving Google, and by extension the fed gov and the Trump regime, control over ALL apps you install on ANY Android device. Currently you can "side load" apps that aren't approved. But starting in late 2026, those app devs will require "verification"

I shouldn't have to say this but the U.S. Government is not a for-profit business and the people there work for us, not the other way around.

I read this as "your ass is grumpy"
And if that's the correct interpretation, it might be accurate.

seems somehow more pressing than ever to visit places like the Liberty Bell. So when work sends you to Philly, you do Philly things.

Remembering your humanity in a world constantly trying to steal it is a sign of strength.
Compassion and empathy are gifts not hindrances. Remember that, and treat those things with deference, gratitude and respect.

I don't need to be kind to the armies of night that would do such injustice to you
Or bow down and be grateful and say, "Sure, take all that you see"
To the men who move only in dimly-lit halls and determine my future for me

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes
