OMG, I was literally just reading an article in the Jan 2026 S&T about EE Barnard & his work at the Lick Observatory. Then @terilynns.bsky.social showed me this post. I remember driving up Mt. Hamilton when we lived in the Bay Area. I have a photo of me next to the telescope. This is heartbreaking.

Neither. Mushrooms are live dirt. Now, fresh sauerkraut is another matter.

You are a wide-eyed, Pollyanna fool to think the Republicans will honor any deal.

What? Do you think the Republicans "learned their lesson"? You are the Susan Collins of the Democratic Party.

But what do you care? You can't be primaried for another five years.

I've waited 64 years for this song to be relevant

Took this quick video during the prenumbral stage of tonight's eclipse, just as the partial stage begins. Lots of clouds to dodge this evening.

As it turns out "Democracy Dies in Darkness" wasn't a WaPo warning, it was their mission statement.

Sorry, I am too busy saving daylight

"Butterfly Butthole Kisses" is the name of my Yacht Rock/Grunge fusion cover band

A whole row to myself, or as I call it: Southwest Airlines First Class.

Mars, very close to the edge of the full Moon, immediately after the Moon passed in front of it from our point of view.

If I ever had to update my job description for a resume, I would have to list my current primary function as Email Deleter and Password Typer, as these tasks consume 90% of my day.

Happy Anniversary, my Love.
