So my name is actually William, I chose Cal (from the novel East of Eden) to remain a bit anonymous, I’m from the Central Valley of California. Be excellent to each other! Btw, I love Deep Space Nine, random yes, but valid.

Lately I’ve had just such vicious anger over the trajectory of our nation, for sure there are a great many things that need fixing but the vile, haphazard, and uncaring way that it’s being done is evil.

It’s infuriating and completely unacceptable that measles that should’ve been eradicated, at least in the United States, is rearing its head again, just shameful and embarrassing. 🤬

I hate this so much and I am bitter about it. I wanted this man to fade away and now he's leading Health and Human Services??!

This is your last, and likely final, directive!! GET YOUR VACCINES UPDATED ASAP!

these cabinet announcements are like an advent calendar counting down to the apocalypse

Had to go to San Francisco recently on business and those Waymo vehicles are fascinating, not perfect by any means but honestly a step up from the a-hole drivers in the city lol.

Regarding the recent unprovoked and ridiculous trade tariffs I can’t say I blame the Canadians one bit for their response.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

Somebody somewhere Needs flowers tonight

I suppose I’ve become old, jaded, tired, and pessimistic but damn, I really understand the people holding “The End is Nigh” signs now. ffs.

A lot of talent on the #fireaid benefit, John Mayer is doing a pretty damn good job at the moment.

Watching P!nk on the #Fireaid benefit concert and I was not fully aware how fucking incredible she is, definitely the highlight so far.

This is the type of doorway that I always expect to lead somewhere magical.

If you see this post, quote/repost a bridge from your photography/artwork.

Watching Severance for the first time, 30 minutes in so far and… it is a trip, it’s giving me The Prisoner vibes but we’ll just have to wait and see, interesting for sure.

Immortality through fame is an interesting concept, I’m not at all a baseball guy however, the passing of Bob Uecker definitely makes me sad. An extraordinary talent (though by his own admission not on the field lol), to be deemed “Mr. Baseball” is proof humility, humor, and heart are major league.

Isn’t it true? 👇🏽

Had a day off today and did stuff; saw the doctor, steam cleaned carpets, did some plumbing, shopping, washed sheets and quilt, caught up on a show. It’s amazing how much life you can do when you’re not in a car for four hours and at a desk for eight.

Show me one picture from Star Trek that perfectly embodies your aura.

Some of the comments on social media are incomprehensibly vile. Regardless of faith or political affiliation it is always important as a human being to show compassion and empathy towards others especially during disasters. Be the person you would want to meet if you were suffering.

Happy New Year

It’s not at all fancy but the vibe is always enough.

In the end, it’s all…

Interesting mix, with a total 4hr commute each day I certainly have plenty of time for music.

💯 STEELY DAN IS THE NUCLEUS OF YACHT ROCK

I’m loving the Yacht Rock documentary on Max. For far too long there’s been an unfortunate tendency to mock this time period and genre when in fact it’s the epitome of excellence in craftsmanship, discipline and creativity, glad they’re getting proper recognition rather than the usual lazy mockery.

Good morning, may the Sun bring you warmth and new opportunities today.

Maybe I haven’t found it yet but the one thing I do miss from the bird place is a list of trending topics, it’s nice to see what people are talking about especially when it comes to breaking events. The calm and civility of Bluesky is worth it though.

Friday after a holiday at work, piecemeal motivation. Calico Barn.

For the love of Christ, why are they shooting off fireworks on fucking Thanksgiving? 🤦🏻🤬

Random, I am bummed about the passing of Alice Brock (featured in the song Alice's Restaurant Massacree by Arlo Guthrie), hadn’t realized that she had still been alive but once I found out, I was sad. The song was a fixture around thanksgiving because my mother loved it, time slips away all at once.

Easy, breezy, beautiful.

The boy took off his scarf and wrapped it around the monster's leg, where an arrow had pierced to the bone. As he did so, all of the anger drained out of the monster. "I knew you could do it," said a voice. The boy turned to see the Queen Ant. #Folktaleweek (Part 6/7) #Folktaleweekbone #Kidlitart
