Sharp-tongued, eccentric character. (Actually a delicately aging AZ girl who faked my way into every job I ever had & still working my ass off in tech. Mainly a re-poster with occasional wild life stories to tell.)

My orangey kitty Harriet, once a tiny kitten but now bigger than my elderly black cat Sammy, snuggles and snoozes with Sammy. 🥰

My layabout coworkers.

My coworkers: Two orange stripe kitties (Ozzie & Harriet) and one elderly black cat (Sammy) snooze on my bed while I do all the work.

Forget sharing the last picture you saved, I want to see the first picture on your phone.

The Florence Project (firrp.org) will be featured charity for Bruce Springsteen Land of Hope & Dreams American Tour 2026 show on 4/16/26 in Phoenix! At my last art show I donated the proceeds for the sale of this piece to the Florence Project. Artist David Syre (www.davidsyreart.com) bought it.

Collage of jail scene with seated Mexican prisoners & prison guard. Behind the seated prisoners are images of ancient Mexican history and a turquoise double headed Aztec snake. On the floor are ancient stone Mexican gods. White text above their heads: You're Not Alone. Symbolizing the power of their rich history that supports them in their struggle.

My boss called me this AM in a panic & texted me a pic of a promotional email she’d just sent to alllll our customers & asked “What should I do?? Send a corrected email or an apology email?” It was for new arrivals of one of our brands, JESS & Jane. Autocorrect! She sent an apology email. 😬

Email header for a promotion of new Jess & Jane clothing which went out before my boss saw that instead of Jess & Jane, autocorrect changed it to Jews & Jane. 😬

She was born in Bedford in 1905. She was the BEST. Funny and loving. She played her "mouth organ" & danced jigs regularly, as in the pic below. But for her entire life she was so shy in front of her husband that she undressed/dressed in the closet.

Latest email scam. I've fallen for it twice. 😡 Notice that email "from" Mortle has a checkbox exactly like the real emails above and below it. So when I click on the checkbox so I can delete it, it opens up a web page. Fuckers.

You know...getting old kinda sucks. 😠 This just appeared. Didn't hit it on anything. Need more collagen I guess...so the veins just don't burst at random.

Day 3 (today): Walter the kitten decided it was safe to climb up on the bed and sit on my niece’s lap and stare at her adoringly. We’ll see what tomorrow brings!

Day 2: “Walter” the kitten decided it was safe to come into my niece’s office and see what she was doing at her desk.

An adorable kitten story in 3 posts. My niece adopted a kitten who was terrified but here he is 1st day, still terrified but curious about what my niece was doing in the other room.

Full page ad in Phoenix Magazine February 1971. My head is still spinning. Very very odd.

Full page advertisement in Phoenix Magazine February 1971. The ad was printed vertically in the magazine even though it has a horizontal layout. A painting or graphic illustration of a policeman holding a male child and giving him mouth to mouth resuscitation. Text above the officer and child says: “Some call him Pig!”

A handmade sign that has at the top left a confederate flag with the words next to it YOU LOST. Under that is a Nazi flag with the words next to it YOU LOST. Under that is a red MAGA hat with the words next to it YOU'RE NEXT.

Look what I found in a December 2002 issue of the magazine The World & I.

A two page spread from the December 2002 issue of the magazine The World & I. Across the top is a headline in red, “Should we go to war with Iraq?” Below the headline on the left page is the subhead “Let’s Finish the Job” by Senator Joe Lieberman. Below the subhead is the beginning of Lieberman’s article on the left and a photo of him speaking at a campaign rally with a campaign poster behind him that says “Gore Lieberman 2000”. On the right hand page is the subhead “Let’s Not Be Hasty” by Al Gore. Under that subhead is a photo of Al Gore speaking probably at a rally with a Chicago sign behind him. To the right of his photo is the beginning of his article.

She is smart as a whip, brave, well spoken, experienced (worked for both Kamala Harris campaigns), energized. She has my vote!

Adding some sweetness to counter all the bad news. My neighbor sent me a pic of "Precious" staying cool on a hot day. She is one of the ~25 feral cats that he and I take care of.

Post from @mmpadellan.bsky.social on X:

Post from Brooklyn Dad on X that says "This hits hard." above a photo of a woman and man at a protest and the woman is holding a hand lettered sign that says "If you wanted me to stand aside and let ICE take my students then you shouldn't have conditioned me to take a bullet for them!"

I texted the above to my boss and she sent back a reply of what she found her cat "playing" with this AM - a 6" long centipede.
