It’s been such a bright spot in my days, and while it is a simple and silly action-adventure-romance, at its heart, it’s a story about honour, remembering we are not alone in this world, and doing the right thing, even when it’s hard.

Feeling proud to be so close to putting it into the world.

Seven months ago I dreamed up a little pirate epic, and the most wonderful team of indie filmmakers rallied to create the very first pirate vertical show. Inspired by my childhood faves, The Princess Bride and PotC, we’re so close to finishing it now and it feels like a dream. #filmsky #indiefilm

I swear, producing a film is 90% phone calls, but somehow also 90% spreadsheets.

Aww little tiny voids!

Ohh la la.

#caturday #catsky #catsofbluesky

The day has mostly been walks and eating, so far 2026 is off to a great start.

Ohhh yes. I know the one.

Literally just got up and went…. What day… Sunday? Is it?

Remarkably, there is still pie. I must continue. 🥧

I have eaten so much pie.

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

Ew.

🤣

Sometimes he just looks like a little cartoon of a cat.

Here, have a Wednesday Cat of Judgment.
