Me until Friday afternoon:

A very important day to the start of a very important week.

Could use all the positive energy you can spare.

There's something in my eye...

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

I love you too Ernie.

Despite everything going on, I was able to get to level 200 (all Battle Pass items) tonight with 10 days in the season to spare.

Catch up with me in a week. ;)

A Shout Out to the Trek Fandom on International Women's Day from my friend Esther Kanu - founder of the Women in Action Development Project in Sierra Leone. WiA is a school for vulnerable women and girls that Trek fandom has helped keep open for 3 years. Thank you all! #IWD

What a beautiful snake!

You're also looking good man! I love your beard. Nicely trimmed. I hope the family is good.

OUCH! Feel better!

I had a 4 hour nap late morning / early afternoon. I needed it, but man with Daylight Savings Time and not much sleep the past couple weeks has really messed with my body.

Scared the shit out of me when I was folding some clothes and it dropped on my bed.

This makes me so happy! We begged Shannon to go to a convention, she’s so talented and kind and has a whole life outside of Trek helping people in need. I can’t believe she’s never been to one of these, everyone please make sure she feels the love.🖖

one of my favorite moments of TNG is when Picard is immediately unable to contain his horse autism

I'm so fucking scared of going back to the states right now. I'm scared I'll never see my husband again, of war and of flying back.
Please donate and share as much as you can. This is a level of fear that is destroying me.

You will get your wins, I believe it.

Trying to send as much positive energy your way as I can. 2025 was shit, 2026 can and will be better.

The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.

So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Now more than ever I’m convinced losing Anthony Bourdain meant we lost probably the biggest person on tv who advocated for the wonders of meeting new people and calling anyone online who hated learning new cultures the children they were, ruthlessly to the camera.

don’t forget to destroy your clocks tonight, walk away from your mortgage, just start driving, you’re free

ER is like one of the all time peak shows. I remember my mom watched it when I was a teenager.

A Woodlouse spider. Reddish brown with a tan butt.

I encountered one of these today hiding in a small pile of clothes on the floor. A Woodlouse Spider.

When there is no news, recycle old things to try and make money!

It’s terrible.

Oh… well… that’d be great.

And we just jumped forward…now I’m technically up at 3am.

Again. 🙃

My son enjoyed this. :)

This is fun!
