I don't know. Looks like an actual heart to me.

Photo of a heart like the one in your body.

Oh that kitty reminds me of my sweet Moxie! He was an old soul, and loved being outside.

A large fluffy cat sitting on the base of a tree. He would like the photographer to step alerting various prey to his presence.

Came here to post this. Instead - bye bye!

Ornery news host John McLaughlin frowns at an unseen guest. Overlaying text is BYE BYE!

This album shaped my young life.

The cover of Grace Jones' album Nightclubbing. It was a huge influence on me as a teenager in a very white and homogenic neighborhood.

I walked to Pemby's today, and missed the shade of the Linear Path mightily. Thanks to @cambridgemass.bsky.social for updating the project website and reminding me what I'm waiting for. www.cambridgema.gov/departments/...

A beautiful pedestrian walkway paved in brick with granite curbs. I can't wait to walk on it!

Cat tax

This is the most recent one. Highly recommend!

The cover of James, a novel by Percival Everett that tells The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from Runaway Slave Jim. Read it.

This feels like a Norman Rockwell piece. Credit to @helenbarrett.bsky.social

King Charles leaning over a white wood fence seemingly feeding chickens. He's surrounded by children. A young black boy next to him looks up at him.

This is my love and shame. I'm so glad there's no BK within walking distance right now.

The Burger King original chicken sandwich. It truly has no redeeming qualities but I still love it.

I think the best part of No Kings today was the infusion of serotonin. This reality is draining. We all needed some joy in our veins!

A participant in a No Kings rally wearing an inflated frog costume. I gotta up my game next time.

A tiny bronze sculpture in Brattle Square. I don't know how to describe it. The inscription on the bricks reads:

IN MEMORY OF BELOVED PUPPETEER
IGOR FOKIN
1960-1996

It's a statue of one of his puppets named Doo Doo.

Perfect amount of snow in the People's Republic. Everything is pretty but streets are clear.

A photo of a front porch with an overgrown shrub lightly frosted with snow.

I liked the original very much. This remake sucks!

Cookie says hello.

Black and white cat lounging in a cardboard pub house structure. Looks displeased with the slow service.

@brooklyndian.bsky.social beat me to my first choice, and this book technically doesn't qualify, but I just reread it, and it's terrifyingly relevant to current events. I'm breaking lots of rules here but fuckit.

A photo of the book Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson. It was published in 1992 but it seems so relevant to current events I decided to push the boundary.

Just outside of Boston. My friend's mom organized a protest just outside their assisted living home. It was joyous!

A group of patriots showing up for No Kings. Many are from the assisted living right up the street. Lots of love from cars driving on a very busy parkway.

It's not a great photo but similar vibes!

A photo of a couple embracing on a rocky ledge overlooking the ocean. One person is wearing a long flowy white dress. There is no visible stair access.

Anyone in North Cambridge missing a cat? This friendly kitty visited my front porch this evening. Wearing a collar, but no info that I could see.

An orange tabby cat lounging on my front porch. Friendly, wearing a collar with a small dark pink ornament.

Shit's bananas. Watching this made me remember why I should keep on. You should watch it too!

Please watch Ladies & Gentlemen on Peacock if you feel like our current horror is eating you up. It won't help the horror but you'll get a healthy dose of serotonin to help you face another day.

If you ever find yourself in Medford and feeling peckish, Bob's Italian Foods is where you should stop.

This Italian sandwich puts all others to shame. Freshly sliced cured meat over Provolone with so much LTO that you can convince yourself it's healthy. It could have been a meals but I just couldn't stop.

Years ago my friends ordered a cake for my birthday. The decorator made some ill-advised changes. Now it's tradition. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekEforEvents

A cake with beautiful purple and pink flowers and Happy Brithday "Yak" inscribed.

I struggled with today's #AlphabetChallenge. So many dangers! I'm trying to live healthier, so this is up there.

A plate filled with leftover cheese slices, some dried out cured meat, some questionable dip, with too many pretzel pillows, a bottle of whiskey, and a bag of stale crackers.

I messed up with this week's #AlphabetChallenge so I'm gonna try again. This was on display at Bran Castle in Transylvania. Along with so many other fascinating items, none of which I thought to annotate in any way. So I can't report anything about it. But I would have liked to try it on.
