The joy of a turnip jack o lantern is that they get so cute as they age.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

On the road to Big Oaks Lake to kayak.

A few photos from my kayaking trip with Ronan yesterday

What did my most recent relationship teach me? To understand why, how people commit self-harm. Even with an abusive,. narcissistic parent, I never understood this. It took being in a relationship with someone to understand.

Some of my sun photos. I can understand those who worship the sun and nature and related deities. The sun and nature are real, they are truths and they are constant. Religions based on invisible sky gods who require blind faith are not for me.

She helped me understand why people self harm. You lay bare your soul to someone close to you and they ignore it. They should understand. You'd think they would understand or listen. But they are shut. I haven't gone there. But I understand. It hurts. But you persevere.

Dems trying to take down Mamdani by calling him "socialist" and saying he's antisemitic because he doesn't want to fly to Israel are going the screw over themselves and this country because you're going to lose even more people on the left.

When a man grows old his joy
Grows more deep day after day,
His empty heart is full at length,
But he has need of all that strength
Because of the increasing Night
That opens her mystery and fright.

Good job, Mamdani.

Went back to working on the basement since it's so hot outside (still wanting to repaint the deck and finish sealing the fence). The floor paint still need to dry and then I'll get to the walls.

Jaysus, it's so hot in Louisville right now even the water will melt the flesh from your bones.

Vegan Korean rice cakes and tofu

They for sure know nothing about you or your actual views. Nor, I think, do they care. Trolls.

Quick and easy tofu tacos. Will my kids eat them? Probably not. But they're awesome and cheap.
