Currently at VTS near DC. Recovering Twitter User. I still do cool stuff like read the Western Canon for fun & now MDiv. absurdist 'holy theatre' pashit. Peter Brook (RIP) is still my hero. I live for cats (aka Iggyboos)
Sun. Wind. Clouds. Bright, blue sky.

Beautiful shades of orange flutter in light & shadows. Little leaves still clinging onto tree branches as we move towards the end of the season....

I'm battling the tidal surge of existential cynicism, friends.

Are we trying to swim against the currents around Cape Horn convinced an orange-hued monstrosity has not been invested as our Poseidon? Abject Legal Courtroom Fuckery is MAGA's Poseidon-vs-Odysseus JAM, y'all!

Get me off this trireme.

Dad: Look at this. Can you believe that world poverty is being eliminated in my lifetime?

Me: No. What is that? Who made that? What's the context? Why am I looking at this?

Dad: You don't believe it? But look! What if...

Me: Nope, that's some broad stroke shit.

Dad: *sad face* /1

Greetings Skyverse,

I has had teh #coffee and teh #MoreCoffee and teh #EvenMoreCoffee

Started the day with Adoremos, our bilingual worship service, singing 6 songs in Spanish because I love me some not-the-organ-and-hymnal82 worship music!

The news is horrific.
Resistance is a joyful noise.

I was enjoying the afternoon in the garden. I thought Ollie Roo jumped up as #cats do to be adorable. What I didn't realize was he saw something his human did not. #Caturday *vibes* 1/2

"in ICE custody"

*means*

"in for-profit, private prisons" operated by CoreCivic & GEO...
