in these dark days, small things can have a big impact on your mental health. Like, put edible flowers in the ice cube tray- and then drop a few in a glass of gin, or your favorite beverage. #flowersky 🍽️

wowzers, the new @robynhitchcock.bsky.social book just arrived via the US Postal Service. I am going to start reading it while mowing the lawn tonight. There will be questions.

As the great poet and surrealist warlord @robynhitchcock.bsky.social once said: I WANT TO DESTROY YOU! Very special thanks to @sarnmusic.bsky.social for sending me these delightful creations from the other side of the planet for my 66th birthday.

meanwhile, in other news from Connecticut….

Quote from a new story posted on wtnh.com: “Once freed, the patient immediately resumed normal goat activities and reportedly accepted hugs and affection from rescuers, caretakers, and anyone else willing to provide attention. No injuries were reported to the goat, firefighters, or public pride,” fire officials said in a Facebook post.”
