Another gorgeous fall day in the PNW. One person really hurt my feelings today, and looking back over these photos, I realized I need to focus on the amazing and the beautiful. And the kind people and the caring souls. And take the lesson the sour pants gave me, and move on.

Sailing in the PNW is gorgeous!

I love these Black Tail Deer families. Momma and a young one, resting by my front walk.

Dolly Parton spent 80 years proving you could have big hair, a bigger heart, a brilliant mind and absolutely no patience for anyone who underestimated you. She gave us unforgettable songs, free books for millions of children, and enough wit, rhinestones and kindness to light up Tennessee.

The only time I miss twitter/x is when I am getting screwed by a company. Social media pressure is the only way to get anywhere. Dominion Energy reinstated service on a closed account 8 years after I sold the house, and their dispute process found that yes, I am responsible for someone else’s bill.

It really seems that his objective is to destroy our country.

Thank you @stefan24frei.bsky.social for keeping that match interesting! An absolutely impressive performance against Toluca. ⚽️

Luminescent nudibranch someone found at a Pier Peer hosted by Puget Sound Estuarium. I highly recommend their events - so fun and informative!

These two are so stinkin’ cute. They make me smile every time I see them.

They never cared about women’s sports before it became politically convenient. Equal pay? Pfffft. Rampant sexual abuse? Sorry that keeps happening. An excuse to attack a tiny population of vulnerable transgender athletes? “PROTECT WOMENS’ SPORTS!”

They aren’t fancy pics, but I just love how much beauty is right down the street. Gorgeous vistas, eagles everywhere, and massive trees. The PNW stuns me, over and over again.

Photos from Mt. Ranier National Park today. Well, and a beautiful Elk in Packwood, WA. Tahoma is a beautiful thing.

Not enough people are talking about this. A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump. He walked away with the trademark, the licensing rights, and a deal that lets him profit off every piece of merchandise sold there. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The three peaks of the Seattle Sports Skyline: Lumen Field, T Mobile Park, and The Mountain. 😂

Another fantastic Seattle Sounders game! I love the energy Seattle brings to soccer!

I’ll have what Hungary’s having.

I took an amazing video, only to realize when I zoomed in I accidentally stopped the video… lol. This was my 2nd best. This is the T090 pod just outside of Anacortes, WA. #whales #biggs #biggswhales #orcas #killerwhales #whalewatching #pnw

1st orca sighting was exciting! We left Anacortes and within 10 minutes, the T090 pod appeared. They hugged the island for a full loop and we were able to watch them leisurely for hours. We also saw harbor seals, stellar sea lions, and eagles. #orcas #killerwhales #biggs #pnw#whales

Highlights from #nokings #bremerton today! Thank you to the ppl in the Lexus passing out flags, to the lovelies tossing kit kats, and to the “dirty hippie church” group that kept me company! My favorite sign of the day was the whoppers every damn day! And my favorite car was this blue beauty!

I said I didn’t want to deal with the crowds… but it was so gorgeous today I couldn’t resist going to see the University of Washington cherry blossoms!

BREAKING: 49 Senate Republicans just VOTED DOWN our simple bill to pay TSA workers. Republicans have now blocked TSA pay SEVEN times. It’s a slap in the face to the men and women who have been working without a paycheck for weeks.

Pennsylvania, please take care of your trash. He is stinking up the whole country.

The world is better with a dog that snuggles.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone. But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Just went to Costco at 1pm on a Thursday and it was a madhouse and everyone was so cranky. Aside from war, all the other mayhem, etc… is something going on that I’ve missed, like a new tp shortage? I’ve never seen my local costco like this on a regular non-holiday day.

I actually am unhinged enough to think it’s not out of the realm of possibility that he launches a war to distract from Epstein files and have a reason to declare a national emergency to suspend voting. It’s not as if lost lives matter to him.

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

Interesting post about the coordinated anti-AOC smear campaign. It's 2016 again! Fake local news outlets on Facebook getting picked up until eventually it winds up in the Washington Post.

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal. Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

An afternoon in Seattle. I love it here.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Sometimes I fall into the trap of thinking acting is easy. We have so many amazing actors making every story look real. Then I watch Pam Bondi try to act like Trump and her DOJ are innocent and I realize, damn, acting must be really hard because this B sucks.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

When a 6th grader came to school in a monkey suit on “Twin Day” saying he was twinning with the only black boy in his class, he was immediately yoinked from class and suspended. Our middle school has higher standards than the upper halls of government. I bet that kid feels vindicated this week. 😡

HRC knows what all Twilight fans know. Vampires are scared of the sunlight.

This is pretty much spot on!!

Yeah hey JD remember that? What ever happened with that?

My 7th grader is currently introducing his friends to Craig Mack.

“You can’t have guns,” he says.. after they murdered a nurse in the street. They never say that after school shootings.
