Barr’s corruption and venality are really something to behold. His disdain for the people, press, basically anything beyond his and the president’s interests is astonishing.
Pine trees and sunrise 🌄
Hammock, morning bird sounds, coffee. This is a nice way to start today.
Ordered coffee, prints, and pen supplies today. Scritched a cat and four dogs. Did some work and got to write some R code. Played some video game. Read with kiddo. Walked with H. Watched some Clone Wars.
Pretty good one, y’all.
I had a nice ride on the bike first thing this morning. It was a cold start – 38ºF! – and beautiful early morning to be in the woods: Elk, a couple of rabbits, and lots of birds were out there starting their days, too. I hadn’t been up the steep Woody Mountain climb for a while! It’s still there; still steep.
This itch.io Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality is an absolute mountain of games – tabletop, action, RPG, low-fi, indie and big-studios. All proceeds are split between the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund and Community Bail Fund. Give a lot.
By today I’m a handful of pages into no. 3. This is the longest I’ve carried on a journaling habit in my life, and I’m really happy to be writing a bit every day.
I’m going to say something inflammatory but I trust I’m among friends. I don’t think the Lord of the Rings films have aged very well. Part of that is just by comparison to the twenty years of film that have come since. Part of that is contextual: I’m just not very interested in watching men being moody right now; and a big part is that Jackson only allows about one and a half emotions per actor and just holds them there. It’s fatiguing.
