"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

Well, I guess we can't get rid of this box any time soon...

Two cats sitting on a cardboard shipping box in a living room. The front cat is a brown-grey tabby in a loaf pose. The back cat is black and white and is just laying on its belt with its white front paws sticking out in front.

The hardest part of leaving my parents' house this afternoon was saying bye to Max, their sweet 18-year-old tabby cat, because-- being real here-- I'm probably never gonna see him again.

Both live in Austin. James says he loves the PNW but can't stand the winters. I was thinking, "Okay, but Austin gets more ice storms and blackouts," when he elaborated: "Because it gets dark so early."
Oh, okay, yeah, that DOES suck.

The two men seated in front of me on this flight have never met before today. They are both bald. One is named Shane, the other James. They are bonding over fly fishing.

I was gonna send this to you, but decided that'd be mean...

I haven't even been at my parents' place for seven hours, but after talking with my mom, I'm now worried that *I* have COPD.

Heath Arcadia @heatharcadia.bsky.social · 14d

Things I'm not used to anymore that I'll have to face for a few days starting tomorrow:
*90°F+ weather in late September/early October
*Paying $6-$8 for one taco
*Actual traffic
*Being in the same home as my mother

I absolutely love the fact that the guy on standing bass in this bluegrass band at the fresh hop fest is wearing a Wu-Tang Clan t-shirt.

I sneezed while brushing my teeth, and that was an experience I'd like to never have again.

This meteor was bright enough to trigger the motion detection on Sky cam!

Notice the trail left for a moment after the meteor disappeared.

Sky cam continues to do an excellent job of monitoring the night sky.

On my evening walk, I thought I saw a black and white cat. "Aww, kitty," I said... Then I realized that it was a skunk.
