I’m re-reading A Writing Life by Annie Dillard. Here’s a favorite passage.

I’m tea-dying paper today. Rice, mulberry, wet strength tissue papers, in rooibos tea. Smells delicious.

Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) has a nice green nucleus and coma with tail that fades out to the upper left.

Honesty & awareness of the past are how we move forward, not patriotism based on false myths & erasure. I’m ashamed I didn’t learn the truth about Columbus, his missions & actions until I did independent reading while I was in graduate school.

"They're saying this because they want to say that you are Antifa, that you are a terrorist. That they are allowed to come after you. Don't let them get away with this."

Experimenting with new techniques for mixed media art. I photographed these flowers, converted to grayscale, & printed on wet strength tissue paper. Then I adhered it to a gessoed panel. The paper disappears into the background, leaving the flower and revealing whatever is underneath the tissue.

β€œMark Bray, an assistant professor of history at Rutgers University… left the U.S. for Spain Thursday night due to death threats he has received after he was accused of antifa membership.”

He’s a historian of fascism, author of Antifa: The Anti Fascist Handbook. Guess what I’m reading now.

Got pallets. Going to cut them in half and use them to shelter the bushes I just planted over the winter.

We’ve got wood. Not yet stacked and covered. Still no fire needed in the wood stove. This year the company I usually order from delivered some crap stuff mixed in. I called, they’re going to make it right by delivering an extra cord. Excellent customer service! Allpine Lumber in La Jara, CO.

Hegseth said in his talk to the military brass that he wanted them clean shaven bc he didn’t want them looking like a bunch of Norse pagans. Personally, I think that sounds like an army worth having. Although an army of clean shaven square jawed Christian Nationalists is terrifying in another way.

Quintessential NM: coyotes left a scat message to our dogs on top of a tumbleweed at the driveway end. Coyotes and roaming dogs in our neighborhood have corners where they leave notices to all the others. The end of our driveway is one of those communication centers. Sky duly urinated on top of it.

There are flashes of lightning to the west that illuminate this view of the east. There's also a hint of northern lights bottom left around the 1:40 mark.

I love the light in the early evenings in the Fall here in northern New Mexico. Today there were thunderstorms all around but they never hit here. No rain, just distant thunder.

Digging through stuff and found this. Forgot I made it. Such a peculiar thing to come across something you wrote or made or forgot about. It’s like another version of your self made it.
