Happy #Fridaythe13th

There’s a joy in the unexpected light in the dark, in finding beauty in adversity.

Enjoy the last moon of 2025 without the cold wind blowing snow into your cracks and special crevices LOL. I hope 2026 brings you everything you deserve!

I went out looking for the Lenoid meteor shower (without my real camera) and somehow got lucky enough to visit with Jupiter and a moon (or a few) overnight. I’ve done this before but never from my older iPhone, so I’m still delighted from it hours later! #outerspace #solarsystem 🤩

Do you remember the 21st night of September?!

In honour of the 🌑 and everyone who’s faced those things, relationship or otherwise, and is finally on the other side of it all. (TY night 3 NOLA for the perfect lyric change.)

Though he’s not with us anymore, I hope you’ll have a sweet treat or a special drink today and celebrate my dad on his birthday!

And I know nothing stays the same…

Think I’ll just give myself the moon.

LMAO it’s too hot 🤷🏻‍♀️

If you enjoyed any of my art, it has a space of its own now @artisticallyiris.bsky.social ! Just getting set up so pardon the blank walls. #watercolour #watercolor #art #paintings

One of those days where the past trauma and future doubts are throwing a rave in my head. Ugh. How about a complete reassessment of your life on a random Monday?!

In thanks for this, I’m creating a new 8 hour @thoughtsperations.bsky.social video that will be available in the next few days on YouTube. Go follow & turn on your notifications so you’ll be the first to see it when it releases.

The Ottawa convoy organizers are being convicted today — just found guilty apparently.

Thank goodness. May such antics never occupy our streets again.

Oh, and don’t forget that Poilievre brought them coffee and cheered them on.

Black and white bird with iridescent blue/green wings and long tail is standing in ankle-deep snow with back to the viewer, facing right giving us a nice profile.

Snow and sun and shiny magpies working on nests. It's April all right #birds

I enjoy listening to our PM Mark Carney speak.
He has a very calming, reassuring demeanor, and speaks with so much intelligence.
God, don't fuck this up for us, Canada.

This isn’t hard 🔥🔥

Live and Let Live 🎯

Take a moment smell the flowers and #relax with a cup of coffee with me. #coffeeandflowers (cross posted with my @raineofiris.bsky.social account)

Five years ago I watched you leave this earth, my heart has not recovered. I am as lost now as that day without your shoulder to lean on or your words to guide my way. I will miss you forever daddy. #griefjourney #parentloss

Quick and quirky look at the #moon at its max #eclipse just now 🌑

Elon Musk is a global problem The far-right billionaire seems to be trying to replicate all across the world what he already has achieved in the US.

"It is a worry that Musk has been able to get as far as he has in terms of meddling in the internal politics of several countries. One can only hope that there will soon be a concerted pushback to Musk’s global moves."

The Nazi Party was obsessed with controlling art, pushing ‘good old days’ nostalgia over modernism. They labeled modern art as ‘degenerate’ and promoted rigid, idealized images instead. Suppressing creativity was just another way they tried to control culture and thought.

I cannot stress this enough—get physical copies of the books, music, art, and movies that matter most to you. Digital libraries can vanish, licenses expire, and what’s available today might not be tomorrow. Preserve what you love before it slips out of the so-called golden age.

SCOTUS ruled a President cannot commit a crime while being President….that does not apply to underlings committing crimes on his direct orders…only he is immune. Musk is not cloaked. States should move on Felonies against MUSK asap and get him disqualified from Taxpayer handouts for his ventures.

RE book bans

We’re past signing petitions. Show up. Show up at the library. Show up at board meetings. Run for local boards. The fox is already in the hen house*, they don’t care about your signature on a petition.

*Books help us understand metaphors like this

In honor of black inventors.
