Why screw around with polyester when you can make things out of birch bark?

I'm trying to find someone who looks at me the way Peg Leg Sam looks at Pink Anderson.

Give a man a fish, teach a man to fish, hell, I don't care which way you go, he's still going to end up doing this.

With so much beauty in the world it's baffling when people's behavior goes spinning off in the opposite direction.

I was just reading that juvenile condors have black faces and then as they grow older and mature into full-on adults, their faces become Stephen Miller colored. I try to avoid reading too much into the animal kingdom.

I like our little house but there are times when I wish we had a few more electrical outlets.

Let's raise a metaphorical glass to the Mendocino County wine business, which is having it rough due to cuckoo climate, grape Tromp and reduced consumption among young adults who prefer White Claw or none at all. As with all things, please experience catastrophe in moderation.

Why talk and talk when so much can be said with just a simple, beautiful gesture?

Our "fascist and furious" government is arresting the brave and reasonable people of Portland Oregon and then purposefully using false information and insulting abbreviations on their mugshots in an attempt to humiliate them. Resist!

I've begun to work on ideas for my Halloween costume for this year. So far I'm feeling most attracted to "The Cabbage Master."

One of these is a view of Commander Pete Hegseth leading the troops during the liberation of Portland and the other is Madonna's 1987 spring training outfit. But the trick is, only one is a real photograph and the other is that AI bullshit. You detect, you decide!

I'd like to think that Jesus hits a homer every time but with this current crop of Republicanned Fundamentafascists I'm starting to think he may have a case of the yips.

Back in 1796, when Edward Jenner pioneered the art and science of vaccinology through the measured use of cowpox, how could he have foreseen this asshole having any power or influence? I don't suppose he could have. So who can I trust? Maybe the World Health Organization?
