You gotta be freaking kidding. Someone take grandpa’s phone away from him.

Oops. I doubt that “melted by lava” is covered by the warranty.

It’s Fat Tuesday! Did you get your malasadas yet? If not, be sure to check out Aunty Tracy guys at the PHM lawn - while supplies last!

It’s time for February highlights! Waimea Cherry Blossom Festival, GAR training, a weekend in HNL, and of course taiko friends and cute doggos. A pretty good month, I reckon. #1se #1secondeveryday

Republicans want bullshit tax breaks for billionaires and corporations. Guess how they're paying for it:

By cutting off 82,000 in Hawaiʻi from SNAP, eliminating Medicaid for over 350,000 keiki & kūpuna, and increasing health premiums for over 10,000 Hawaiʻi residents.

Hell no.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.
Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

Scenes from the Great Aloha Run (Walk, in my case). Mahalo to Mike G. for the inspiration!

Mexico & Canada did literally nothing to stop the Trump tariffs.

The stock market stopped the tariffs as Wall Street always assumed it would.

Received my “Aunty Ai-chan” Shishimai t-shirt today! Cute design and a nice, good quality shirt - not the cheap, thin variety like other print-on-demand shops. Check it out on Bonfire.

Didn’t make it to the volcano in time to catch the fountaining, but my daughter did. Amazing! #kilauea #volcano

Yeah, I should have pulled over - this the best of my point and shoot, blurry pics. Might take a drive up tomorrow night. #kilauea #eruption
