Well. I guess that I’ve reached the age where I don’t hate Steely Dan anymore. Let’s not go crazy… I don’t *like* Steely Dan either. I’m just saying that now when I hear it, I don’t feel the rage of 1,000 suns.

Plenty of room to maneuver around the beds. Also a somewhat more interesting design to look at from my 2 story deck than your basic rows. But that might just be easier. We will see!

I only have like, two sunny spots available so here we go. And yeah there will be a fence around it to protect from giant dogs.

Bought this graphing notebook a long time ago to draw quilt designs, but because I hate patterns and have no sewing discipline I’m just drawing up my vegetable garden instead.

My hand holding a stoneware dimple cup with gray bubbles glazed onto it. The background is a dyed turquoise quilt.

Day 31:
Bubbles

I LOVE making these bubble mugs - they are chaotic but sorta fun and they always turn out great.

And I’m very sorry if you have trypophobia.

Also shoutout to @kmacqq.bsky.social for the beautifully dyed quilt in the background

When Trump said to Zelenskyy, “you’re gambling with WWIII.”, he was projecting. Trump and Putin are the gamblers, and Europe is smart enough to see it.

old Soviet joke for our times:

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.

Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”

Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”

Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

I once had a boss that told me to "work faster" upon recieving a note from my doctor saying that I could only work 7 hours a day instead of 10-12. My doctor issued the note because I was 7 months pregnant with high blood pressure and having early contractions.

It was a trap. This is fucking embarrassing. Dude is a hero and actually cares about his country. I wish we had a leader like that.

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.

Hey. Still navigating crippling anxiety? Existential dread? In fear for family members that are about to lose basic rights? Wellp. Try organizing your seeds. It’s a good maybe 1/2 hour distraction. Next up, channeling my energy into establishing a shit ton of garden beds.

The way this account uses emojis to save space really makes it hard to take these headlines seriously. Might want to rethink that, dudes.

We all cope with governmental collapse, crippling panic attacks, injustice all around, and rising costs differently. This is how I do it, I guess.

I make gardening spreadsheets and rough layout sketches 😂

One of my greatest achievements as a parent was introducing Ernest movies to my kids. Whether they liked it or not.
