Now that I’ve had tendonitis in my right wrist for 3 weeks, I suddenly have an absolutely URGENT creative need to pick up linocut again after a 2 year break from it. And of course I can’t. 🙄🫠

Today’s #BlueSkyArtShow theme perfectly coincides with my recent #SprocketRocket series because one of my all-time #favoritethings is the American Southwest!

Also, maybe it’s because I’m old and didn’t grow up with cell phones, but I never printed off a phone photo until this week because I didn’t trust the quality. I have to say, I’m actually kinda impressed.

Holbrook Dinos on their way to a new home. I forget how nice it is to see your work physically printed (in any form), and also how very nice it is when people love it enough to ask for one.

I’m almost done with The Grapes of Wrath. I used to almost exclusively read literature but got out of the habit. What lit do you recommend I put on my reading list next year?

Fluorescent barite from the “Skunk Pocket” at Linwood Mine, Iowa. Not much seems to be known about this find except that it was a small one from around 2019.

Shown under longwave UV (365nm). Visible light comparison in comments. Person collection, photo my own.

This video always brings a smile to my face whenever the internet gods randomly decide to bless me with it.
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

Is anyone surprised at all by the Supreme Court ruling on the new Texas maps? No? Yeah, me neither. 😒

Honestly, I believe it. 😅
If I had to guess: Brian Cole was at January 6th in the name of Hillary Clinton.

According to my source, Karoline Leavitt.

Confirmed by Mike Johnson who didn’t see anything, hear anything, or know anything about Brian Cole.

And Kash Patel, who says they’re currently searching for the suspect.

I guess everyone’s Spotify Wrapped is available now. I cancelled Spotify a little while back but I’m pretty sure I can say I listened to almost no music this year except maybe Supaman a few times and a handful of other Indigenous hip hop.

Is it just me or is it getting harder and harder to find whole bean coffee in regular grocery stores? Tons & tons of pods and still a decent amount of ground coffee but usually I only find MAYBE 2 types of whole bean coffee. 😭

Upheaval Dome. Even though I KNOW this is in Canyonlands because I have been there several times, Upheaval Dome always feels like something that should be in Death Valley instead.

So we are finally watching What We Do in The Shadows but took a break for the new season of Stranger Things and now you cannot convince me that Vecna and Baron Afanas are not the same entity. 😅

If you want to lure me into a windowless van, you need at least 1 of 3 things: rocks, photography gear, or spices.
