There’s some hard, beautiful truth in this.

Got this symmetrical shot of the cathedral at the end of the street a few days ago after the rain. Anyone NOT from #Scotland might be surprised to hear that this is a color image. /s #Edinburgh

This is a profound set of comedy. Just released. "Art can save your life." Highly recommended. youtu.be/TgKsG6NZSIo

The Vennel Steps in #Edinburgh, like driving into #Cincinnati on Hwy 75, has one of the BEST reveals. All set to music I wrote years ago for a cat food commercial. “Nuts and Gum, Together at Last!”

I’ll always think of them as sea puppies. Those silly Scottish seals on Skye

Eating rhubarb tart in London today. I just realized that the King in Hamilton was kinda right on with the whole “you’ll be back” thing.

The TikTok algorithm has gone ‘murica. Sponsored posts every 2 or 3 swipes and if you watch a longer one now we see “Ad in 3… 2… 1…” The bilboardification of our lives continues.

#Edinburgh is giving #HallmarkChristmas movie vibes today: a snow-dusted castle, twinkling tree, and just enough hustle to feel festive. #Winter plot twist somehow involving apple crates and Wall St. pending.

“All change is preceded by crisis.” — Søren Kierkegaard This tree dropped all its leaves overnight under Edinburgh Castle—because seasons... but just you wait for the glow-up next spring. #Change #Growth #Kierkegaard #Edinburgh

I’ve walked past this building thousand times, but never noticed the castle on top of it until this morning. #Edinburgh, like life, is full of new surprises, especially to those who keep taking in the views.

Spotted at the #Edinburgh Xmas Market. As someone who once wrote a #StarWars parody musical, I have to hand it to The Cocktail Geeks for this creation. ‘Order 66’—a cocktail in a can that looks like it’ll lead to order 67!

Just came across a quote—attributed to Dan Zadra—that hit me hard: ‘Worry is the misuse of imagination.’ Suddenly, all my overthinking feels like a poorly written sci-fi novel entitled “The Time Traveling Second Guesser”

Edinburgh Castle at sunrise, so perfect for this time of year. Ancient, and moody, even before you add in the pumpkin-spiced, movie-poster skies. The graves below giving a ‘we’ve seen it all’ vibe. #Edinburgh #Sunrise #CastlesAndGraveyards #MoodyVibes #scotlandsunrise

Good morning! 🌅 Woke up today feeling ready to dive deeper into Notion (it’s surprisingly fun). Hope to get out and make the most of this weather in Edinburgh, maybe a trip to the castle with my daughter. Here’s to fresh starts and following through. ☀️ #MorningThoughts #FreshStart #EdinburghLife

Evening walk around Charlotte Square. Watched a Masterclass doc on a horse trainer who “breaks” horses with body language and zero violence. Inspiring! Finding flow without force, and decluttering the mind. Small steps to balance. 🌄 #SomaticWisdom

Woke up with the “Why am I up?” feels. Bodies hold a lot of weird old feelings, but today, I’m telling mine: “Heard, chef!” We don’t always need to hit the snooze button on the joy our day has in store. #MorningBlues #BodyTalk #FindingTheFun #TheBear

I used to think being a lone wolf was strength. Turns out, it’s just isolation in disguise. The real challenge? Showing up and being seen. #CommunityMatters #BreakingTheShell

G’morning BlueSky! Today, focus on progress, not perfection. Each step forward is a win.

So many artist friends scared of AI, but many grew up hoping for a world where C-3PO would be real someday.

St.Mary’s in Edinburgh in a haar. Freezing fog.

Harry is talking about figuring out you’re in love with someone in this scene, but the older I get, the more I’m figuring out the people I don’t want in my life anymore and the same theory applies.

What’s a life lesson that you seem to never learn? Mine is to choose your mentors wisely. Anyone who has been successful at manipulating an audience, has to also be selfless enough to not use that power in a trusted personal relationship. Very hard to find.

…and a good morning to you, Edinburgh!

Evidently I can now sign up for BlueSky. Cool beans. I miss prelon Twitter sometimes. Let’s see how this works out.
