You can't tell Vedder he isn't a lapdog. There is nothing like feeling the warmth of his fur and giving him a big hug to release allllllll kinds of stress.

A group of protesters stand in the sunshine in front of a tree, holding signs and small American flags. The signs: "THE CHEESEBURGERS ARE TAKING TOO LONG TO WORK," a drawing of Popeye with "I'VE HAD ALL I CAN STAND AND I CAN'T STANDS NO MORE!!" an illustration of Trump as a clown with "NO KINGS IN AMERICAβ€”AND NO ORANGE CLOWNS EITHER" and "JUST ANOTHER ANTIFASCIST HILLBILLY FOR PEACE"

Let's nip this myth right in the bud. For every one of us of a certain age, we remember hearing this. Break the cycle now. Abuse in any form IS NOT LOVE.

#40daysofgoodshit today was my little dancer (in green here) finding out she gets to move up to the next level of ballet next fall πŸ₯³ we were very anxious about this since she auditioned two weeks ago, and it's a big relief.

For #40daysofgoodshit we have this glorious, pull over to the side of the road worthy sunset. And the phone camera never does it justice. To quote my 11yo: This is why we invented fancy cameras.

#40DaysofGoodShit -- Day 36 I picked this up and put it down more than a few times today. It's one hundred pounds more than the last time I deadlifted which was last month in Anaheim, CA. So, there you go. Good shit.

Closing in on the end of #40DaysofGoodShit, so let's go back to the gym!

I came across this post from 2016 - how relevant it is today.

Portrait of a tall man dressed in black with a cowboy hat. He has waist-length brown hair and a graying beard that used to be vivid red. He looks like a poker player from the Wild West, and he is. He’s also a physicist, a master bread baker, a musician, a speculative fiction reader, and a practicing polyamorist. For 22 years I was his partner; he and his wife, one of my closest friends, were together for 45 years. He died on Monday, March 23, 2026.

I am so grateful for 22 years with my partner @pokershaman59.bsky.social and for deep friendship with his wife @kith51. He died suddenly Monday morning on a plane to Ireland. We are shattered.

My kiddo performing at Disneyland in his high school band! You can't recognize anybody, but that's where they are πŸ€ͺ

Today's #40daysofgoodshit features this slight throwback to last week when my kid got to play bassoon in his band at Disneyland--a once in a lifetime travel opportunity πŸ₯° Thanks to everybody who paid him to teach piano lessons, or bought a mattress, caramels, socks, or lemonade to help raise funds!

My #40daysofgoodshit post for today is that I put some time in on this personal project, a carbon dust painting of a piece of driftwood, done on two sided drafting film. This gives me the option of adding some color to the back later. It's so fun to push and pull with carbon and erasers!

One of our Christmas cacti always blooms during Lent, so I've named it Paschal.

In our grief circle last night, a woman said, "I never realized that I live most of my life in fear." The beauty of our community is that she was surrounded by love, compassion, and empathy, and reminded of the courage it took for her to just be there with us. Keep showing up.
