Some people are stuck at Burning Man contributing to an ecological disaster, while trying to survive a climate disaster they should have seen coming. Other people are at home harvesting their gardens and preserving food for a hard winter. Huh.

I'm so done with all these heatwaves.
And it's only the beginning, I'm afraid.
Ok - enough cranky old bat bummer posts for now (ok last one - had to explain Sinéad O'Connor to two 20 somethings who had no clue who she was). Despite still being sad about her passing, excited to see Boyz II Men tomorrow.
Also found this literal street corn walking the dog today.
Hope you all enjoy your weekend.

I know taking issue with the lyrics of a bad pop song is a fool's game, but Meghan Trainor's 'Made You Look' is SO inane. If you're wandering around naked in places where people normally wear clothes, yeah people are going to look. That's not an achievement, that's just getting a reaction by doing something obvious.

Not sure if this belongs in the "man shouts at clouds" or "get off my lawn" folder.

The only thing worse than being inexplicably awake in the night when you are actually really really tired, is being up in the middle of the night at someone else's house, and there is nothing for you to do and nowhere to wander and the night feels like it's 100 hours long... #Insomnia #Why #cranky
I hate when you unsubscribe from emails and they make you work for your unsubscribe. (For example, uncheck all the boxes and hit save.) #cranky
So dad #WaterDragon decided to follow my wife into the garage and then was very reluctant to leave. I did not need zoom for this photo!!!
(Zoom in a bit though and you'll see his mouth open and his throat puffed up, he really wanted to show me who was the boss)

Saw a post about how since universities' researchers understand risks/damage of Covid, the institutions should embrace taking steps to mitigate. This take makes sense if you think universities are engines of knowledge production, and not, say, real estate funds with customer service enterprises on the side.
Unfortunately, I think a lot of our administrators need us smiling, unmasked, to welcome students paying tuition, more than they need us thinking. We're disposable. #cranky
It seems that most times I’m out and about these days, I hear #music I grew up with. It’s roughly late #80s and #90s through the early naughts. I find myself in a #GoodMood and often singing along and sometimes even doing a little #dance.
Then it occurs to me that it’s a #marketing thing and that someone is trying to #influence my mood so that I spend #money. This makes me #cranky, feel old, and as a direct result I don’t spend any money.
