Solid modern internet horror. Dacre Montgomery makes an excellent killer.

Ramshorn snails: buy two, get however many are in these eggs for free! (must’ve bought a gravid one…)

Making last week’s hike footage work because it’s over 90°F this weekend and will be over 100°F and I don’t want to do it again in the heat. Going up on Patreon first, then YouTube on Wednesday!

Screenshot from classifieds listing showing a dirty fish tank with like two inches of filthy water and two fish who deserve better.

Just two little tarantulas worshipping their cactus.

Two juvenile tarantulas in separate enclosures with a Christmas cactus between them. They’re both facing the glass with each of them holding a leg up toward the cactus.

WELP. Got the betta some guppy grass and two ramshorn snails (to clean up the gravel) after work today. I just looked in again and found THREE baby snail hitchhikers… it’s gonna be snail city in there apparently! 🐌

The full betta fish tank aquarium with a fish, rocks, guppy grass (a floating plant), and snails.

Circled in red are the two snails that I got on purpose.

Circles in red are the tiny baby freeloaders that hitched a ride on the plant. I guess we’ll find out eventually what kind of snails they are!

Two red tail hawks! Sound up!

Went on an adventure today.

Me smiling while sitting on a bench under a tree in the foothills.

Just received the FIRST email that my transit card will be deactivated because they killed the program. It came in after 5pm today (Thursday) and it deactivates July 1st, next Wednesday—less than a week’s notice. Real trash.

Hive Pass program ending inbox
Ride With Hive 5:12 PM

Dear Hive Pass holder,
We are writing to inform you that the Hive Pass program is ending. Beginning July 1, passes will deactivate.
We realize this program has been an important resource for many residents and did not reach this decision lightly. In the meantime, some residents may qualify for UTA's reduced fare capping card, which you can learn more about here: rideuta.com/Fares-And-Passes/Individual-
Fares/Reduced-Fare. If you do not qualify for reduced fare passes, we encourage you to explore the UTA FAREPAY card: https:// www.rideuta.com/Fares-And-Passes/Individual-
Fares/FAREPAY-Card.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through these changes. Please reach out with questions.
Sincerely,
Salt Lake City Transportation

Thanks for the face shape, Great Great Grandma Essie.

Thinking about the 1992 masterpiece TOYS and how much I was obsessed with it as a kid and how gorgeously surreal it is.

A yellow bedroom seemingly floating within a room that looks like a vivid blue clouded sky. There’s an enormous bird shaped cover that drops from the ceiling to enclose the bed.

Robin Williams and another actor on a colorful golf cart. The floor is severely wavy with little hills and covered in astroturf, the walls painted blue with white clouds. A man stops them holding up a “Ducks Crossing” sign while a toy duck family crosses the hallway.

Overhead of the toy factory with huge round stations that have even more huge versions of toys at the center of each station.

A limousine pulls up in front of a mansion that is unfolding like a pop-up book in a perfect empty green field.

I don’t think we’ve talked enough about South Korea’s purple kit and this photoshoot with Sonny in a field of matching purple flowers.

Gearing up for the next MLS season. I’m sorry, SLC, but I simply must root for LAFC over RSL not because I’m from California, but because my beloved Sonny is coming over from Tottenham. Just snagged this extremely killer shirt for the occasion:

I may or may not have bought big round glasses back in grad school because of Hockney…

Me wearing glasses that are just two big circles.

Goodbye to one of my favorite artists. A true great. Rest easy, David Hockney, you absolute genius.

Fido’s in creepy mode I guess.

Our tv was color but I’ve tried to describe the switchboard to people and they always looked at me with blank confusion. Lo and behold I found documentary evidence.

A girl in the 90s sitting on a brown step ladder (me). Behind her is a floor model swiveling wooden tv with various media players on top and a switchboard used to flip between them. There’s also a wooden VHS cabinet. Everything was so brown.

Found a stone cold paranormal classic at the thrift today for one whole dollar.

Lately I’ve gone back to wired earbuds and an old school digital watch because I can’t deal with remembering to charge every single thing in my life.

I’m still working on my business plan (it’s hard!) but I’m holding myself accountable to following through by filing for an LLC. There’s no reptile supply store or rescue service in Salt Lake City and I’m going to change that!

And when you’re done in Midvale where the drug store was you can cruise past the house in the aves and the gazebo thing at memory grove in SLC.

Film and current looks of a column gazebo thing in a park.
