Justin Trudeau gave the exact kind of press conference today that we have been waiting for from our Democratic leaders. Watch it and learn from it. No gimmicks, no stunts, no script, no platitudes, no slogans, no games. Just straight talk, honesty, sincerity and facts.

My then husband, who traveled a lot for work, suddenly panicked about the possibility of cancelled flights. He rushed off to LA, & texted me for a divorce. He returned only for his things a month later & never came back. He married his 21 year old mistress not long after we divorced. #fiveyearson

I think I need a lil timeline cleanse. Show me your pets and tell them I said Hi!

For the record, do I think a one-day boycott is going to make much of an economic impact? No. Do I think that a sort of "Baby's First Boycott," performative though it is, might be useful to make some folks aware of the impact of their economic power, and how it might be wielded politically? Maybe.

#5goodthings for today: 1. I saw lots of dogs. 2. My husband came home from work and took over cooking dinner tonight. 3. The sun was out and it was glorious. 4. Tomorrow is Friday! 5. Tomorrow is pottery studio day!

That feeling when you feel the SAD leaving your body as the light returns.

I have a confession: I’m cheating on you all. I had to create an alternate account to take a break from the chaos and news that was on my feed. It has helped a lot to just focus on some of my hobbies for a bit. This is my gentle reminder that #mentalhealthmatters. Stay informed but stay healthy. ❤️

Yesterday, I watched The Nickel Boys—an emotional uncovering of America’s buried past. It’s haunting, powerful, and absolutely worth watching. Especially right now.

@howieseverything.bsky.social somehow you came across my discovery page today! Yay for finding you here after I ditched Threads

Keep making art, my friends. Write, draw, paint, sing, play. And keep enjoying the art of others. Indulge in things that bring you joy. It's how you survive and it's what makes fighting so important. Fight as much as you can, but don't forsake joy.

Managed to find some sun in the United States Botanic Garden

Every dream I had last night was a backwards twisted hellscape of dystopia. Think maybe I’m stressed?

Exciting news! @fotoapp.co launches February 21.

I don’t have much to say right now because what the hell is actually relevant anymore but here is a photo anyway #photography

What a time to be experiencing perimenopause. I hate it here.

I’m sorry but this is the only filth and decay I saw today.

Chinatown, DC

I’m museum hopping today so here is a little #monochrome for #blueskyartshow

Have been dreading my visit to DC because of current events. But I needed the reminder of the museums I love. Science still exists. People still are fighting the fight. Even here.

Picked a fun time to fly to DC didn’t I?

We are an unserious nation.

Picked up Parable of the Sower to start this week and I think I may not be ready. The world feels a little too dark right now. #booksky

Mood.

I learned today a friend passed away this weekend. I’m devastated and also feel weirdly disconnected from everyone mourning as I am not on Meta platforms anymore. This is giving me pause on how we have evolved socially and how we share and process information. I feel strangely alone in the process.

Playing in traffic. First official Flashes test post. #nightphotography #thisisboise

My ACOTAR inspired clawed bowl has finally been fired and I am super happy with the final piece. #pottery #beginnerpotter

Does anyone remember when #followfriday was a thing on the other place?

Someone has thoughts about sharing a lap with a computer. #catsky

Working from home today was a coincidence but super glad I am now.

I haven’t had the heart to shoot lately but I have loads in the archives to revisit. Here’s a tree i fell in love with in Utah. #photography

I just realised there's Gamers out there today that have probably never seen a Game Manual 🥲 You just had to be there 😭

I feel time an outsider in the gaming world. I am very resistant to voice chat, have zero friends that play the same games I do. Every morning at work I hear team members talking about their gaming but I am definitly not in the cool kid club. #introvertgamer #pcgamer

I know times are tough, I know it feels awful to boost the work you do, the art that you create, during all of this madness. But you should post and share and create your art. Share it for a breather for those who need it. Share it for yourself to feel batter. Share your art!

Has anyone migrated to PixelFed after leaving IG? If so how is it?
