It's that time of year for my annual canoe/kayaking/bikepacking and camping gear list for my solo trips. Here's the gear that I'm going to be using this year. www.paddlinglight.com/articles/wha...

Kaçkar Dağları, Karadeniz’in yemyeşil manzaraları ve zirveleriyle Türkiye’nin saklı cenneti 🏔️. 3932m’lik Kaçkar Kavrun, en yüksek zirve! Yürüyüş, fotoğrafçılık ve doğa tutkunları için ideal. #KaçkarDağları #Doğa #Trekking 🌿

i feel like trumpcoin, and the fact that we never talk about it, is pretty emblematic of the way the press refuses to grapple with trump. it exists in order to pay him bribes. it expressly gives you political access. it does not pretend to have a licit motive. it was a one-day scandal.

Removing a black 4-star general at Secretary of Defense and replacing him with a white talk-show is the perfect example why DEI is essential. It's not about hiring unqualified minorities, it’s about foiling the majority's habit of hooking up under qualified mediocrities of their own caste.

Origin story day 4 (iPhone6 photos): The thing about newly learning about fungi is that seeing new ones blows your mind over and over. I miss those days of being wonderfully shocked all the time, as I was when I saw this purple Clavaria zollingeri. #fungifriends #fungi #mycology

Replace ‘Harvard’ with ‘churches’ and he’s onto something…

Thank you for all the love on this image. I get little reaction to my work on Bluesky compared to the likes of IG. It’s nice for my work to be seen on here! Thanks again!

Just admiring the Tranquillity ...🌿🐾⛅☺️

Every now and then in wildlife photography the light, the subject, and the setting all come together perfectly to give you a memorable image. (American Red Squirrel) Hanwell, #NewBrunswick, Canada May 2024 📸 #mammals #sqrlpix #squirrel #nature #wildlife #photography #Nikon #Z6iii #Nikkor800pf

a very important skill as a politician is to be cringe as hell (complimentary)

I’m pretty sure Elon Musk has actually become exactly who conservatives thought George Soros was.

Escaping to the Saturday #blueskyartshow for some #arches action. Desperate need of beautiful art today!! #eastcoastkin #classicmono #architectural #blackandwhite #beautifulbuildings

Once again, as cynical as people were about things, if you had said a year ago that Trump would simply hire Elon Musk to dismantle the federal government and destroy Social Security through an agency called DOGE, you would have been put in a padded room.

When I started working on this gravel bike ride guidebook for northern Minnesota I had no idea what the final form would look like. It's really fun seeing it come together. I skipped some of my original ideas for the page layout, but I think it still looks good. Here are thumbnails.

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

Just about 2-3 more weeks and our country will be full of colour again, with tulips covering our farmlands.
