Since I became a full-time nomad I've had the privilege of meeting a handful of folks I only knew from Twitter and every time it was a gd delight

Main street was busy yesterday so I had to park about 5 blocks away from the place where I'd called in an order. As I'm walking back to my car with this giant pizza box every dad I passed said "oh is that for me?" while their kids laughed uproariously. Small towns are fun

Unbeknownst to me beforehand, the last 2 books I've read have involved walks through the Mendip Hills, where I spent most of May this year

The only day I can remember saying nope I'm good and shutting things down for a while was when everyone got mad at the lady who liked to have morning coffee with her husband

Yep! The original plan was to have the ceremony at Seeds community garden and then do a bike parade to the building for the reception but the aforementioned weather issues meant we moved the entire thing indoors. I don't think anyone minded - it was a lovely venue

I got married in that building! I honestly think the only reason they stopped doing weird stuff outside on that day was because there was torrential rain (for which I am eternally grateful)

I wrote this little snippet and I love what @mattmarkell.bsky.social does with it. You should listen to the whole album.

Also Wells, where they filmed the movie, is a (very small) city with an actual cathedral! I had to take the bus there to get groceries when I was in rural Somerset and if I stayed in town later than 6 pm I had to walk back to the village where I was staying

This inspired me to watch it last night and after spending a few months in rural England this spring it definitely hit different. I especially appreciated that they were raising money for the church roof because that is something that happens in literally every village in the UK

I love these! So convenient.

And also I've been in and out of that airport enough times in the last 2 years that I know exactly where that picture was taken

My 23-year-old kid's first Zelda experience was Breath of the Wild and they have since made it their mission to play every iteration

You guys aren't going to believe this but another man just came up to give me a fist bump and tell me I looked just like Jerry Garcia

I'm wearing a Hawaiian shirt with my hair down this morning and a woman at the coffee shop just asked me if I'm a Grateful Dead fan because I look just like Jerry Garcia. I'm still trying to determine if she meant it as a compliment or not

This reminds me of when I began working for a start-up and they asked us to put our previous employment on the intranet as kind of an ice-breaker; long story short, that's how I found out I was the only person at the company who had held a job other than graduate assistant

Started a new pet sit today in northern Michigan. All three dogs have already jumped in the lake, and I think I will be joining them soon.

Conservative ideology boils down the exclusive franchise to murder others, and if you think that's overstating it, I would invite you to observe that hundreds or thousands of unofficial lawless kidnappers cosplaying as official lawless kidnappers is no threat whatsoever to the conservative mind.
