When the half marathon training is going so good… that the full marathon starts to feel possible. 🙃

Nothing quite as humbling as a race day photo. 🤣 #runsky

Anyone else attempting Novel November? 📖 #booksky

And for all those that Celebrate—Blessed Samhain! 🎃

A loving reminder—someone’s identity is not a costume. 👻 Happy Halloween!

First half marathon in the books as a seriously #slowrunner but I accomplished both of my goals— I finished and I did not throw up!!! 🏃‍♀️👍🏻👟

It feels so SO good to be a Mariners fan tonight! 💙

This Mariners-Tigers game has got me using all my breathing techniques 😮‍💨

Where am I? I’m at the government shutdown. I’m at the Taylor Swift album release. I’m at the combination government shutdown and Taylor Swift album release 🕺🪩

Finally got around to Enchantment by Katherine May on my #tbr list and it’s a lovely read so far. Poetic prose and thoughtful ideologies are particularly nice in autumn. 📚

Nothing quite compares to that feeling when a friendship progresses to sharing locations with each other indefinitely… 💞

For a Type A person with ADHD, there’s nothing quite like the rush when your new planner comes in the mail…

I will not stand for KPop Demon Hunters slander.

Finished my longest run ever today! Took plenty of walking breaks and did my best to listen to my body’s needs. Running does not have to be focused solely on distance or time, it’s about being present, moving your body, and putting one foot in front of the other! 🏃‍♀️ #running

we need to talk about "crime" better. the most damaging crimes, and honestly the ones that law enforcement can have the greatest impact in addressing, are exactly these "white-collar" crimes. these are causes, whereas crimes of despair/need are better thought of as symptoms

Free Palestine. Free Sudan. Free Congo. None of us are free until all of us are free! #collectiveliberation

Grabbed my tickets to visit @museeorangerie.bsky.social while in Paris. I’ve been dreaming of seeing more of Money’s water lilies since I saw one in Portland. 🪷

Thought Taylor Swift’s new album was actually titled Life of a Showergirl for a good three seconds. 💃🏻 🚿 🧡

In a reading slump. 📕 Help, please! What book should I read next? I need something funny and uplifting. #booksky

Have you remembered to drink water today? - Myself to Me

If you live in Seattle—remember to vote in the primary today!!! 🩵

Waking up each morning to my government slowly dismantling all that makes our country wonderful is getting pretty exhausting… 🙃

Ran two miles to try and process the SCOTUS rulings… it didn’t work. I am still sad and I’m glad I ran anyway.

Hey guys, umm… the military parade is completely embarrassing.

My first knitting project is about halfway finished! Yes, I jumped on the Sophie Scarf bandwagon… and I now understand why people rave about this pattern. It’s been a lot of fun!

Running while listening to a podcast about baking biscuits… I feel balanced.

Continental knitting is fun but my god… getting the tension right is tricky!

Rosamund Pike narrating the Pride and Prejudice audiobook is peak casting. 5/5 ⭐️

Okay, I’m gonna do it. I’m gonna knit the Sophie Scarf.

The years really do start coming and then they don’t stop coming — but no one tells you that sometimes they come like an avalanche down the mountainside. 🙃

How does your cat tell you they want food? In our household, one meows pitifully and the other knocks stuff off the countertops and coffee table.

new pope! *crowd goes wild* American pope! *crowd boos* woke for an American! *crowd goes wild* bad on protecting abusive priests! *crowd boos* hates JD Vance! *crowd goes wild*

Indigenous communities have experienced a crisis of violence for generations. Today (5/5) we honor and remember missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, two-spirit people and their families. To those in mourning, we hope you find comfort in community.

I’m on board! (I love dad jokes.)

Happy Caturday! 🖤🐈‍⬛

I’ve been seeing so many less bees this year and it breaks my heart. 💔

Hit a milestone (pun intended) yesterday on my electric bike! 🚲

The lengths to which people go to weaponize their privilege is astounding. Being privileged and not using your privilege for good—then getting called out does not make one a victim. That’s called feeling uncomfortable. I don’t think a lot of people that demonstrate this behavior even realize it…

Cathy Moore is an embarrassment. 🤦🏼‍♀️

So happy for Canada! 🇨🇦

Things are bad. But places that sell single slices of pizza? Those are very, very good

Sunday flowers from the Ballard Farmer’s Market. 💐 A nice little treat to lift the spirits before another week begins.

Playing Stardew Valley might help establish world peace. In this essay, I will…

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

My "if I was a billionaire" fantasy is owning a bookstore where I can afford to pay everyone exorbitant salaries in perpetuity, regardless of how many books we sell. Free copies of the book for every event attendee, every time. Classroom sets when we have an school visit. Books on me, fellas.
