every month I celebrate a monthly anniversary with @launshae and I write some reflections — it makes me mindful of our relationship. today we celebrate 79 months and I reflect upon how I have this intense fear of being in a race against time, and how I’m grateful to be with a person who gets it: https://www.instagram.com/p/ClqHbHuuZbg/
My wife and I tested our new old camera from 1954 that produces square images on a 35 mm film, so on a roll of 36 you can squeeze in over 50 images! (We used the cheapest color film available) 📸
1/ Still emotionally bruised from sending the #kitty who moved in here in early summer off to a new home yesterday (see yesterday's post) got some of the last photos edited. Heard the young woman who took him is #KittenSmitten so I hope that means it's going well. #CatsOfMastodon#rehoming#love#caturday
We took turns hanging out with him yesterday, with me he strolled down to the woodcutting area, smelled some squirrel dens, and laid around looking beautiful.
Our little boy Shortee is in hospital. i would appreciate anyone who is a thinker, feeler or pray-er to send warm wishes + thoughts of noodles, various #dog snacks and proper kidney and pancreas function in his direction. Thank you so much. #love#dachshund#beagle
August 5, 2023. Good Morning! High time we did something meaningful about Covid misinformation, and Climate Denial. Our societies are getting sicker, and so is our planet. Petition here to rename SARS-CoV2 to the more accurate SAAVIS-CoV2. Stay safe! ☮️❤️🍁
Hi Fedi Family,
In 2008 Californians voted for Prop8 that defined marriage as the union of one man and one woman in the California constitution. While this was defeated in courts this draconian Prop8 language is still in the California constitution. Justice tHomas and the right wing SCOTUS is openly hinting at destroying precedent and trampling rights. If they overturned Obergefell - the Prop8 language in the California Constitution will act as a “trigger law”, raining havoc on queer families like mine across California.
Please spread the word to vote “YES” to repeal Prop8 (2008) from the California constitution in Nov 2024. Talk to your friends, family and colleagues about it.
This. So much love. This young skateboarder who goes by the name Skatbirker never gave up. And he had a village of support. When he finally pulls it off. So good. Imagine being lifted up by so many people. What a delight.
I need to know the scientific name for the small body of air captured under the covers while you sleep. That lovely, warm air probably contains all sorts of interesting molecules you generate or sweat or exude while you're in bed.
For the methods section of a grant (potentially); "we will use a Gilian 800i remote air sampling device drawing air through 4 feet of 3 mil silicone tubing and a MilliporeSigma™ Supelco™
54278U SPE solid phase column. Samples of {INSERT THIS TERM HERE} will be drawn at intervals of two hours with column replacement between each sample."
Because I want to know what molecules exactly my lovely partner/wife/whoever you sleep with is filling that space with so that they are so snuggly first thing in the morning.
