My kid sister is a six-footer.

Well, 5'12" the way she tells it.

Why is our culture so cruel to short men and tall women? 😞

Always thought you were a legit six footer. Image shattered.

Also had no idea Zendaya was that tall. Assumed Holland was like 5’4" or something. He’s just average. Who knew?

Keeping the preschooler home today while my wife works from her home office.

I just texted an update about my bathroom usage to the group chat.

How’s your day going?

lush ferns grow alongside the weathered boardwalk under a canopy of foliage headed south around the base of Dorr Mountain on the canon brook trail, on the right, a runoff pond flush with copious summer rains

Come to Colorado.

Old tree on a dark cliff side surrounded by deep snow banks. Its roots are exposed. It may be dead. Heavy snow is falling in the photo.

From Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, this old, ragged tree clings to the steep cliffs during a snowstorm. March 2019.

The tree probably isn’t even alive, just wood.

A small cluster of trees illuminated by late afternoon light coming through a gap in low clouds. The trees are on a lightly forested, steep mountainside covered in snow.

Golden light filters through the low clouds, kissing the thin strand of forest at the end of the day.

Long term models are finally hinting at a pattern shift. Here’s to hoping. Maybe March will offer us some massive dumps 🀞🏼

When I was a small child the Olympics sued the school program that aimed to get students excited about math and science.

Changed its name to β€œOdyssey of the Mind”.

It was one of those days. Took the dogs for a short run because it was a bit too warm.

After picking up the preschooler I ran another 5 miles pacing him as he went around a small lake.

Wish I could enjoy this weather more. Been so warm and dry this winter I’m incredibly anxious about a dry summer.

Glad my family sold our tickets. Grateful to be in my man cave with the space heater watching this with my preschooler.

Go Broncos and all that, but my rage hasn’t subsided. Still got Minnesota on my mind.

Solidarity from everyone I know here with Minnesota.

The only point I will make is that those who are willing to engage in violence understand the consequences of escalation.

I have no patience for those who see the pain and costs of violence in the abstract.

There are businesses in Minnesota selling the fuel going into ICE vehicles.

There is a utility company providing the gas and electricity keeping them warm at night.

There is a hotel providing these agents of murder shelter.

They are getting fed somehow.

All pinch points. Let’s get pinching.

Logged on this morning to post a photo but instead I find myself rage scrolling with an insatiable anger at 77 million American voters.

I will never forgive.

Absolutely hilarious how the precipitation map for this storm stops almost exactly at the Colorado border.

Just no relief in sight for this awful, snowless winter.

No more half measures. No more compromise. No more lacking the will to do the hard work of rooting out white supremacy.

Giving up on reconstruction was a monumental mistake.

I saw the video. I do not think for a second there was any sort of contact that could cause internal bleeding.

I’ve been hit as a pedestrian by a garbage truck in NYC and smashed into on a bicycle by a motorist in Denver.

I’m the biggest manbaby ever and I shook it off, ffs.

The rot is systemic and has been there since before this country was founded.

I know you know this I just like to scream about it 😞

Wild clouds at sunset, orange and purple and gray, flare over construction equipment somewhere in the Colorado foothills.

Haven’t been posting much. Just sad an angry. But I’m still taking photos and playing the guitar.

Snapped this crazy cloud about a month ago during that stretch of windstorms and power outages.
