Crossposting to Flickr has been a game changer for me (and I hate using that term unnecesssarily). The only con (so far) is the stripping of exif data (I like having it in Flickr even though it’s kept private). For phone pics it’s an easy compromise. Time will tell for my “real camera” pics.
Not to minimize the threat but, I’m grateful for the GI Joe cartoons for educating us on what came to be today’s Republicans and their dysfunction. You have Cobra Commander, Destro, Zartan, The Baroness, Dr. Mindbender… all trying to lead and tearing each other apart during the process.
Today’s mood: Tool, “Fear Inoculum”. 🎵
Day 3. Had a small dish and this batch is 🌶️🔥. But very good. One more day and I think it’ll be exactly how I like it. #trustTheProcess #fermentation
One day, for at least one meeting in my career, I’m going to be sitting in the back eating an apple (or cracker? or onion?) and, like Quint, to silence the crowd I’ll run my nails down the chalkboard and offer a solution that no one saw coming. 🦈 #JAWS #oneCanDaydream
The bright side of having to go to the office this time of year is getting to see the fall colors on the trees in the parking lot.
Today’s mood: Say Sue Me 세이수미, “The Last Thing Left”. 🎵
Kimchi Day 2 progress and letting the jars breathe. Was tempted to take a bite but will give it another full day. 🥬🌶️🇰🇷#fermentationIsAwesome
Sad to learn the Angeles Crest Creamery is ending their newsletter. Totally understand the reasons but will miss the updates on the goats and ranch. 🐐
Today’s mood: Bob Marley & The Wailers, “One Love / People Get Ready”. 🎵
Continuing the Bob Marley kick. Riding high from the weekend and the KAD meetup.
Another scene from the Lost Coast trail. With next week’s extended weekend I just might have to take another drive out there for some more pictures.
Today’s mood: Bob Marley & The Wailers, “Iron Lion Zion”. 🎵
Very much enjoyed yesterday’s local KAD meetup where we participated in a kimchi making demonstration. A really fun time with us all walking away with jars and various containers of freshly made vegan kimchi. Today I’m opening up the kimchi jars to let them “burp”. Fermentation is awesome.
Today’s mood: Hiss Golden Messenger, “Saturday’s Song”. 🎵
Listened to: Criminal podcast, Extraordinary and Compelling Reasons. 🎙️
Today’s mood: La Tigre, “Deceptacon”. 🎵
But of course! After listening to their Song Exploder’s episode it had to be this one.
Watched: Photographer An-My Lê: “A good picture is one that is surprising”. 📺📷
Loved the interview and, though I’ve always been “aware” of her work, it has inspired me to learn a lot more about it.
Today’s mood: Days of Summer, “Need to Escape” 🎵
Apple Intelligence ads tell me that Apple just wants the mediocre and lazy to succeed at being mediocre and lazy.
Today’s mood: Def Leppard, “Animal” 🎵
Felt bad for the team at McDonalds this morning. They seemed out of sync and not too happy about it, which is abnormal for them (in my experience with this location). They’re usually super friendly and super quick. Hope they are able to turn it around soon.
Today’s mood: Garbage, “Only Happy When It Rains”. 🎵
