It Is Time!
Before you lay your head to sleep tonight, please say a prayer or send a good thought to the heroes of Ukraine who are ready to lay down their lives in the coming counteroffensive against the Russian invaders.
Lest we forget, freedom isn't free; it is the selfless acts of everyday citizens who stand to defend their, and our freedoms, no matter the country.
EVIL SHALL NOT STAND when justice is at hand!

I've never been more satisfied with my introverted, hermit life.
If it says "youth pastor", FBI agents are probably going to serve a no-knock warrant within the hour.
For me, it's snark, and sarcasm, and a deep-seated need to mock the tropes I was raised to believe by taking them to ridiculous extremes.
There's really only one test to being my friend, and that is, when I say whatever's on my mind, especially when it's completely random, nonsensical and bordering tactless (but not offensive), that you don't react like something's gone wrong. My need to be randomly absolutely stupid is not negotiable.
No better way of enduring existence yet.
One of the unexpected perks of sharing your work online is that you start to see commonalities that you might otherwise miss, such as how predominant this soft aqua/turquoise palette is throughout my art. This expressive-drawing-based work reminded me of a glorious avian aerial ballet: "Murmuration."

May native wildflowers in our garden. This after a neighbor cut down massive privets on the property line, flooding the yard with sunlight. Seeded the area with wildflowers and nature did the awesome rest.

There are no entirely ethical pharmacy chains in the US, but with Walgreens policy on mifepristone, pharmacist privilege to refuse filling medications, etc, consider:
1. Reporting pharmacy management to corporate for review
2. Non-chain alternatives
3. CVS as an option.
This goes for #misogyny targets like mifepristone and methotrexate, as well as #neurotypical bigotry targets like #ADHD medications.
This is Buffy, a feral cat whoβs been hanging around the farm for a couple of years. My friend feeds him and noticed he has been sleeping under the back porch on the gravel. She bought him a bed this week and he has hardly left it since. A small kindness that means a lot. I think heβs home now! #catsofmastodon
So - wait. You're not the billionaire engineering genius who flies around in an armor suit?
I feel so deceived. So used.
You're at least friends with The Hulk, though, right?

Kiss that $1300 goodbye, because no one in my family would ever pay it. They'd come up with excuses before going on the attack, and telling me I'm a greedy bastard for expecting them to pay me back.
Strangely, it doesn't come up, because I don't loan money to family. Friends? Sure. But never family.
@crswa @therobburgessshow The irony being, when I took a firearms safety class, there wasnβt anyone there that I thought was sketchy or might be dangerous. Because the people who will seek out and pay several hundred dollars to spend two weekends attending a firearm safety class probably arenβt the domestic terrorists youβre hearing about every night on the evening news.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
