In tariff-tangled times, #thrifting and #upcycling keeps your wallet happy and perfectly good stuff out of the landfill.

Shoutout to #GlobalNeighborhoodThrift for proving you don’t need “$20 in your pocket” to walk out with something awesome.

RIP Mr. Udo Kier.
It was so much fun working with you.

"German actor and cult film icon #UdoKier, who worked with such renowned filmmakers as Andy Warhol, Madonna, Lars von Trier, Gus Van Sant and Werner Herzog, died on Sunday. He was 81.
Overall, he had a role in over 250 movies."

Amazon drivers have run over my property twice now, and #Amazon / #AmazonPrime still claims there’s “not enough evidence,” even with video. Hit-and-run much? That is illegal. Time to press charges, I think.
This #BlackFriday, maybe skip the megacorps and support your local Mom & Pop instead.

More people will read the #Epstein files than ever bothered to read #Project2025.

We chase scandals like it’s #JerrySpringer trash TV, but skip the part where policies get written and quietly rolled out.
Maybe the drama shouldn’t be more important than our future?

The simplest truth: If you want people to like you, like yourself first. 💯

You teach people how to treat you. Start with respect and kindness for the person in the mirror. It’s the essential foundation for all lasting connections.

Went to Best Asian Market for groceries, ended up playing #airhockey. 😂
Now I’m thinking the #DowntownSpokane market I’m co-owning needs some fun too — maybe Pac-Man or a money pusher game.
Grocery shopping should make you smile.

Veterans Day honors all who’ve served in every branch, every era.
If you really support veterans, watch how your reps vote on veteran issues. Flags and slogans are easy. Accountability isn’t.

Hello, New Week!
What an absolutely breathtaking view from my penthouse suite at the #DavenportGrand, #Spokane! That sunrise over the city is a reminder that every Monday is a fresh canvas, full of light and unlimited potential.

Caught a guy parking sideways in the street for a car photoshoot. Can’t blame him—this block glows under the walnut canopy every fall. 🍂

President #ClaudiaSheinbaum was groped in public.

Men need to #BeBetterMen. Parents need to raise better sons.

We’ve all heard that #Trump quote —

“You can do anything... Grab 'em by the pussy.”

When so-called leaders talk like this, some men think it’s a pass to act like that. It isn’t.

Hey, it’s Mr. Hankey. 🎅💩
Loved the kids’ costumes — top tier.
Adults? Meh, not quite spicy enough 😉
Maybe next year we bring the heat. ✨

Why do phones still flip selfies like we’re in a funhouse mirror?
In real life, text wouldn’t be backward, so why does a thousand-dollar camera do it? If it’s just a settings toggle, why isn’t the correct view the default by now?

My YouTube history served me two identical “7 Habits of Millionaires” videos today.
#DanMartell and #ChrisDo thinking alike… or someone took #StealLikeAnArtist by #AustinKleon very literally. 😏

Stepping away from the routine is essential. Cruising on #ElliottBay today, soaking in this view of #Seattle, proof that taking time to do what you enjoy is the best kind of fuel. Always something new to discover!

What new view are you seeking out this week?

I finally got to cross off Item No. 420 on my #BucketList: Make a professional comedian laugh.
Mr. @adamconover.net has taught me so much about how the world actually works. It was a pleasure to see him live at the #Spokane Comedy Club this past weekend.
Thanks #AdamConover for visiting us again.

On the Seattle Underground Tour, I stood where Bourdain once did. Funny to realize I’ve also walked where Jesus and Hitler walked. Same world, different marks left behind.

The stakes could not be higher. Democracy is under a very real, existential threat. The blueprint for a dictatorship or fascism was spelled out in #Project2025. As the plan is enacted step-by-step, the urgency of the moment is undeniable.

I honestly believe shows like The Jerry Springer Show, and others of its kind, were a clear marker for the decline of American discourse, and our current situation.

They were the first to normalize and celebrate poor, outrageous, and often violent behavior in exchange for a few minutes of fame.

Yet here we are, 50 years later, still cranking #KISS up to 11.
Thanks for everything, Starman #AceFrehley.
You'll be missed.

Paid respects to #BruceLee in #Seattle. I trained hard last year to match his height/weight ratio, adding 12 lbs of muscle.
Met Brandon’s college roommate, and later a man who once dined at the same time as Bruce & Hendrix at Bruce's fave restaurant.
That sort of thing happens to me all the time.

We might not always look this effortlessly chic, yet a partner who makes me feel this happy and supported is the real picture-perfect part of my life. It's not the pose; it's the person you're standing next to through it all.

Grateful for everyday moments that are even better than a staged 4x6.
