Then, make a beeline to read those books, if you can. Find out for yourself why those people want that book banned. Find out for yourself if they can be trusted to know what’s best for you.” ~ Jeff Zentner

So wonderful! Congratulations!

The good news is, it’s fixable! The bad news is, we have to wait for parts. Yay. Setting up our back up, camping style, set up until we’re back in business.

Indeed. Now if we could just oust him before he does anymore damage, that would be great!

Exactly! Every step forward determines the next leg of the journey, not the final destination.

It’s truly the only path forward 🤷🏻‍♀️💚

When the Monday Gods are in cahoots with the Widget Fairies because you wake up to your well being out and your Home Screen widgets offer up this lovely response.

Is that a friendly message or full on sass?!?!

Welcoming all good vibes for ease and running water ASAP 🫥

The EPA and Big Oil Are celebrating. The Pacific is not. A super El Niño may be building — possibly the strongest in 140 years. On top of the hottest decade ever recorded. Here's what that means.

Yep, gross. I didn’t see Sandra’s, but Reese’s pitch was wild. I’m not surprised, but I am *tad disappointed.

Pretty solid patterns until they just… weren’t. This March was truly a doozie.

Small Spaces by Katherine Arden 😰📚

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you’re under absolutely no obligation to justify yourself to anyone if you choose to spend the entire weekend reading a good book, making multiple cups of tea, and indulging in a borderline scandalous amount of cinnamon rolls.

You’re…not Ponyboy?

An aerial view of a heritage blue slate turkey sitting on the ground at my feet. Her whole grey body is visible as well as my muck boots and work pants.

I had a dream last night that, unbeknownst to us, one of our turkeys hatched a clutch of babes out in the field and I was trying to gather them all up in my arms and bring them to the safety of the poultry yard. Farm life 🤷🏻‍♀️ Not sure what it means but they were hella fluffy and cute!

A chunk of blue-grey fluff that is actually a very soft kitten sitting on a library desk. They are doing a very serious Kitten Face and have very intent yellow-gold eyes, and they would be so scary and fierce if they were more than six inches tall and not so hugely adorable when they tried to be judgey.

The news all sucks today.

Here's a kitten in a library!

Happy Birthday, Leonardo! 🎉

Breathtaking shot! 💛

Absolutely ridiculous

Indefensible

It’s going to be so rad!

Solid reminders, thank you!

Roll with it!

Great shot! So nice to see them at rest 💚

Exactly!

New ink is always so exciting! I have two hand poke pieces and I love how different the process felt from my other five. Enjoy!

This won’t end well for anyone if we can’t push past this nonsense and goodness, there’s so much on the line!

It’s all just so exhausting 😒

Absolutely disgraceful, though not surprising. We will continue to resist.
