From Instagram: a screenshot showing headlines from the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald, with the personal caption, "The Edmund Fitzgerald has informed more of my psyche than would be expected. But here we are." And it's true, reader. The yard Edmund Fitzgerald is dear to me.

*someone* was part of yesterday's Squardle...
A screenshot of Squardle - "licorice" is the word in question.

I have now taken 2 Pilates classes. Am expert. AMA.
A cheery handwritten chalkboard sign (blue and white, with snowflakes to give it that seasonal feel) that says, "Walk into winter with strength, flexibility, confidence. Pilates is ready for you."

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy
A moody photo of olives, black on the right, a drift of bright green on the left. The text reads, "I can't explain it but olives are just meat grapes."

Without thinking, reSKEET the first Simpsons joke that comes into your head
Kristy the Clown with the ever-popular, "I said the quiet part loud and the loud part quiet."

So, hi, apropos of nothing, I was in Germany recently
A red German dumpster that looks suspiciously like a laughable Tesla truck. Or does the laughable Tesla truck look suspiciously like a German dumpster?

A beach in Big Sur, California, taken from the highway above. There is all manner of botany in the foreground, near-white sand, and the water is turquoise at shoreline, changing to deep blue just beyond.

Lantana+friend. #FlowerReport
A whack of rainbow sherbet-coloured lantana (deep, bright pink, orange and gold) being visited by a large swallowtail butterfly, whose predominantly yellow wings look like the next shade in the lantana's colour continuum.

Thank you! We even went hiking for rocks a couple of weeks ago.
A bevy of mountain rocks, many covered in lichen, some heavy on quartzite, several good-sized, ready to be strewn in nature-mimicking fashion about the yard.

I do have many plants I can identify. The yard is shaping up nicely, but I'll be dipped if I can remember what that new one is.
A view of a yard built to look like a mountain scene, with dogwood, blue spruce, yarrow, lavender, whirling butterflies (a plant, not actual butterflies), a boulder, a faux river made of rocks.

A fairly non-descript plant, short in stature, a handful of elongated, bug-munched leaves and not much else.

Weirdly, I did too.
A photo of a MAGA Subaru in the wild. Very rare, with classic markings of FJB with an upside-down American flag, a picture of a banana with "We literally live in a banana republic!!", and a simple stars-n-stripes MAGA. It appears to be molting - the marks are all printed on standard office papers and enthusiastically taped to the back window. There is also a Yakima snowboard carrier on top. Y'know - just for fun.

Best. Hotel. Coffee shop. Ever.
A very sweet, very fluffy Newfoundland dog sits at a table at a hotel coffee shop. Her name is Morgan.

Thank you, hotel elevator. I will.

Not sure what kind of cocktail we're brewing up here, but OK. I'm game.
Hotel toiletries in rum (body wash), cilantro (conditioner), peppermint (shampoo), and vitamin B5 (lotion).

What a nice rock.

Made a duck pot pie for dinner. It was bloody phenomenal.
About a quarter of a duck pot pie in a Pyrex pie plate sitting on a white and grey granite countertop. There is mostly a bunch of brownish pie goop in a crumbly (dare I say buttery) crust, but visible carrots and asparagus. Health food, practically.

Post a pic YOU took at sunset

No description
A picture of a vibrant purple and orange sunset, houses and treetops lining the very bottom of the frame.

Loud. Hard.
Front Line Assembly, mostly in the dark. Al Jourgensen of Ministry: the Keith Richards of a later generation. Gary Numan backlit in orange and purple. If you only know "Cars," do a little research before you go see Gary. He's harder than you think.
