i hate that AI has now caused me to question the authenticity of cute animal videos online, which is my primary use of social media. i don't even know if this baby penguin actually wore a beret to go buy a tiny baguette in paris

Recent thrift store observations: 1. New art isn't sold with glass over it anymore. 2. Never buy a new stock pot (again😛). 3. Tupperware is hard to find. It's been replaced by light plastic containers.

There is no way the East Wing wasn't covered in lead paint, inside and out. Rump himself is also a toxic cloud in desperate need of remediation.

So... the folks who hyperventilate when someone burns a little made-in-China flag to demonstrate opposition are silent when our Vandal in Chief literally takes a backhoe to The White House?

Apple tasting party with 3 friends this afternoon. 30 types of apples, all from the orchard in Big Lake. The overall winner? Carroll. Tastes like pineapple.

I commit to acting with integrity today. I will not suffer the shame of others' (our "leaders'") lack of integrity, rather, I will enjoy the light that comes with the fabulous people I choose to share my precious time with. Including y'all. Thank you. Love you all, except those I've already muted.

Trump turned Jimmy Kimmel into a hero for free speech.
He’s about to turn James Comey into a hero for standing up to vindictive political prosecution.

Just because people freak out about national events, doesn't mean you have to respond by freaking out. Breathe. Live a day in your own body. See/hear what's happening in your own life. The world will spin, either way.
