What I love about Northern Mockingbirds is their audacity to sing anytime they feel like it. Call them the pop radio of nature. If there's a top 10 bird song list, the Mockingbird is singing it too.

Are real tree stumps hot pink? No. Do I or this chonky Northern Mockingbird care? Also no. ❤️

Forcing athletes to review every minute detail of the game kills the joy of playing and watching sports.

Went on a first date and she brought me a little succulent. On our second, she brought me a bag of her favorite coffee beans and a copy of the book she's reading. I start writing my vows now, right?

I'm interested

If you would've told me 20 years ago, I spend most of my days in excel spresdsheets, I would've laughed. How's your day going?

What if I spent a year making the stuff I've been dreaming about making since I was a kid?

Abstract canvas painting. Dark blackish blue background with bright dabs of red, orange and yellows to resemble flames. In white chalk, there are words that read "How much will they (crossed out in grammer edit fashion) they (I accidently wrote it twice but erasing them felt wrong so it stays. but back to the sentence. How much will) it take before you stand up?" in big sister print handwriting. I tried painting the letters but I was impatient and had to get the words out. Art is like that sometimes. I hope you make something wonderful with the day you have.

We're the adults we're waiting for.

Text above picture is "Grief during the holidays is weird cause how do you balance "I'm so happy to see these people" with "Everything in this kitchen reminds me of you and how much it hurts you're gone. So I painted this. Picture is a blue canvas with yellow and orange palatte knife dabs of color. It is a slightly messy painting with textures. In writing it says "I wish you were still here". The canvas is sitting on an easel.

Grief during the holidays is weird cause how do you balance "I'm so happy to see these people" with "Everything in this kitchen reminds me of you and how much it hurts you're gone." So I painted this.

Ever hear a song for the first time and feel like you've heard it before, but not in this life?

I got you

Painting of white stars on a black sky with nebulas of red and white that almost look like lips.

10 x 20 inch painting of the stars. The skies are layered in multiple shades of blue with white stars. If you stare long enough, it starts looking 3-D.

Another deep galaxy painting with multiple layers of black and blues. The intention was to feel like you were walking amongst the stars.

A 18 x 24 inch painting of a forest pasture scene. Left to right, there are trees in the background and beautiful rolling hills of lush green grass. On the right there is a large tree with realistic tree details with a tree stump sitting next to it. A family of foxes watch their two kits, baby foxes, play in a hollowed tree stump. One is inside and one is trying to look at a firefly. In the far right background, there's a Highland bull watching the family. Slightly transparent to indicate a forest guardian watching over the family. The scene is set towards at night with a large galaxy background full of stars. This was painted for a baby nursery.

I don't know how I got on astronomy BlueSky but I paint stars. Does anyone like art?

A little salt in your fresh ground coffee before you brew it. Same effect.

How do I get a job writing for The Onion's new website?

If you're giving new tech to your kids or parents, set up the device before you wrap it. You'll be able to troubleshoot any tech issues, like no software downloaded to that videogame system or phone, before the big day.

My algorithm must love me cause you popped up quick.

I don't even know what to post here. All I did on X was check my horoscope and scream into the void.

I deleted my 12 yr Twitter account two days after the election and started posting here.

And the hunt to find artists begins

This is our darkest hour. Now let's bring back the light.

Hey BlueSky - Heard y'all liked art. Here's some of mine

My little sister found raccoon paw prints on her school bus this morning 😍

That's what I did this morning

If you listen closely, you can hear the flannel shirts in the closet waking up from hibernation.
