It's kind of weird being called a pillar of my community. But weird in a really good way.

When you've been through a meat grinder in life? When you outlast everything and everyone that tried to keep you down?

It has you taking a moment to ask "Is this real?"

It's weird in a rewarding kind of way.

Everyone on the east coast wondering why no major hurricanes made landfall in the US this year.

Meanwhile...Alaska just got slammed by a fucking typhoon with Category 4 winds.

I've been to more than my share of old growth forests in my time.

But nothing is as striking as seeing MASSIVE old growth trees with a base as wide as a school bus growing 4,000-8,000 feet above sea level.

That's what makes Giant Sequoias so unique, even compared to Coast Redwoods.

I needed this...

Sweeping vistas and giant trees are healing to my soul. Seeing giant Sequoias for the first time? There really is nothing else like it.

Hedonism isn't really a bad thing under the context of post-scarcity.

When there's more than enough to go around? We can all celebrate life by being as merry, flamboyant, and indulgent as we want.

We shouldn't settle for just surviving. When we truly deserve to thrive.

We truly deserve the best.

No, nothing bad. LOL!

It's a set of ankle weights. I want to keep building up those thick dragon thighs.

For sure. I'm not doing anything strenuous. Just light walking and that's about it.

If the best case scenario happens, I still stand on what I said. I'll be donating to Japanese LGBT+ advocacy groups when I become a full-time ramen cook.

Ooooh? In recent Japanese news, the Komeito party pulled out of backing the LDP.

Without their support, the LDP no longer has a majority in parliament.

This is a good sign. It means Sanae Takaichi, the new right-wing extremist leader of the LDP, might not become the next PM.

Fingers crossed.

Hoooonelly!

11lb/5kg on each leg. X..x

Give three weeks to a month of walking/hiking in these and I'll be kicking and running faster than a stallion.

There's a stern difference between knowing something and assuming something.

Knowing something means you put effort into acquiring the knowledge to understand it.

Assuming something means not making any effort. Just a reflexive impulse without any thought or substance.

Huff! Yep! Definitely a ramen bowl worthy of a dragon~

Filled it up perfectly to the line~

This stuff is going $13 a bag, and you can just dig up entire swaths of the plant in southern states and make it all into starch.

All you gotta do after that is burn the remains so it doesn't grow back.

Kudzu is a rampant invasive plant in the US.

But get this. Kudzu roots are a magnificent source of starch. In China, Japan, and Southeast Asia especially, Kudzu is used the same way we would use corn starch.

What's a good way to deal with invasive species in general? Eating them!

I already have a kobold. He's a blue fella, which is why I got them in these colors.

But hey, I'm always open for other dragons.

Rodínovah "Roady" 🏳️‍🌈🍜🐲ΘΔⒶ @roady.bsky.social · 3d

The bowl on the left? There's no doubting that's a dragon's bowl.

But the bowl on the right? Definitely the kind of bowl a kobold would use. It just has that fitting whimsical feel to it. xP

Yes, ESPECIALLY a cute dragon.

The only thing missing about house sitting in the mountains?

Having a cute guy to share it with.

Finally made some chicken chintan broth and Shoyu tare from scratch.

Just the taste test alone has me feeling better than I have all week. @..@

One spark of joy and hope that's helping me get through the day?

Curtis Yarvin is terrified to the point of leaving the country.

The real brains behind the attempted right-wing takeover is shitting himself because he believes his framework is starting to fail under the current regime.

A moment of respite. A calm pool to collect your thoughts.

Take a deep breath. You’re holding onto a lot more tension than you realize!

Sometimes you just know that someone low-key hates you.

But you gotta chuckle because intentionally withdrawing contact and being completely non-reactive to their bait drives them fucking crazy.

Because hey, if they're gonna be passive aggressive? I'll passively exit myself from their life.
