You reminded me of a protest I went to.
People standing in a circle, chanting "this is what democracy looks like".
Then, one skinny dude enters the circle, and starts DANCING and SINGING it.
Fifteen hundred people matched his vibe.
With the right melody, one person can change a movement.

Certainly not near the golf course. xD
We're across from the transfer station.
I'll plant everything I have. Nothing to lose, unless I don't try.

We got this on Kilauea tonight.
The majesty of this island continues to amaze.

Also have a ton of likiko‘i, milo, koai‘a, one wiliwili and a much larger kukui, back at the old house.
I doubt the wiliwili will do well in Volcano, however. It's not even doing well in Holualoa. :P

One kukui, 3 ti in different colors. Last one is very sad, forgot to water it for ages, but it's still alive.

Into the dark, your coat, it had blended.
Upon lights return, all has been mended!
With a chirp, and a mew, and a flick of the tail,
and your shiny black coat, all born from the trail.
We welcome your presence, despite all your crimes,
of chewing on cardboard, and the curtains you climb.

I've got snowboard pants for these occasions. xD
We live mauka though, so it can sometimes hit the mid-50s in the morning. Brrrrr.

If I ever had it happen, I'd tell them my cousin died of covid after 10 days on a respirator. Because it's true.
Thank science for the vaccines.

Baby face club. I'm 45 and people regularly guess 25-30. The other day, I got a 16. LOL
If you want to get carded every time, dye your hair a fun color. Takes 10 years off. xD

People always guess low for me as well. Someone was off by 29 years the other day. xD

Maybe he thinks you mean "funky". Synonyms can be a little confusing for the puppers.

Seems like half the ads on reddit are megacorps trying to push gen AI at me, never once with a compelling reason.
I report every single one as offensive.
Can we like... Find a better timeline? Because this one kinda blows.

I realize that spending $24 on spongy soybeans with korean ketchup represents a fair amount of financial privilege...
Bit this seems a fair compensation for such haute cuisine.

My wife has an ecotank too.
If you print too dark, it sometimes leaves spots, but usually it's fine.
Not sure if it's a widespread issue, paper issue, or what, but it's subscription-free.

I'd absolutely vote for an iron dagger, blunt-force trauma, and subsequent drowning for the dude photoshopped into the image above. Maybe don't treat his ‘iwi with such respect as was given to Cook's bones, however.
I've stood next to the spot his body was taken. Beautiful view. Beautiful place.

But they didn't know really how to work it. Which is why they stole the ironworking tongs from cook's blacksmith. (It was subsequently returned, however)

One Hawaiian, upon seeing the iron on one of the ships, said something to the british that sounded like "hematite". What he probably said was He Maita‘i (It's good).
Hawaiians did have previous knowledge of iron, probably from metal washed up from shipwrecks.

Oh, and the future King Kamehameha was 17 at the time, and actually traded with Cook. A feather cloak, in exchange for 9 iron daggers. Such was the value of iron to them at the time.

The journals of the crew of both ships are pretty interesting.
I did trail maintenance on the trail for the last few years, and heard so many stories as well. Became a bit obsessed with researching the event.

Fun fact. Many of the warriors in Ka‘awaloa village that day had thick, woven hala armor on. Seeing the fire erupt from Cook's weapon, they slipped into the ocean to wet their armor, in an attempt to further protect themselves.
Cook tried to kidnap the king, shot first, then found out.

I've had to really search to curate my feed here.
I found you because I went looking for ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i speakers. I have trans family members, and I value and enjoy reading your thoughtful content.
But yeah, I get you. Time is precious.
