Timeline: checked. That's enough social media for the day.

@amosmagliocco.bsky.social I owe you a second thanks for the Didion recommendations earlier this year. Just finished "The Year of Magical Thinking" yesterday and enjoyed it!

My Janet pug. Left OTD in 2017 and still missed every day.

Having looked at the details: Decatur, Georgia, you’re up right now, they are actively recruiting there! Mineola, New York, you’re on deck, they’ve got you listed but flagged as ‘not yet recruiting’. The intranasals look to be our best hope(s) for a sterilising covid vaccine, so this is important!

Want to sign up to participate in the clinical trial for an intranasal COVID vaccine? They're taking 60 volunteers who have had at least one dose of vaccine. They're recruiting both people who've had COVID & people who haven't. Go here in for the details: www.clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT064...

I wonder what the folks scheduled to take the US citizenship oath on the 4th think of yesterday's ruling. Just a random thought.

Humidity probably isn't a good reason for missing a social event, is it?

As Ian tactfully points out, our headline culture is a bit out of control.

He didn't get the job. That was a lot of anxiety this week for bupkis. Phooey.

Morning, Perla. Same. #catsofbluesky #MondayMood

Even Rachel Carson would be sick of this 🤬 robin living in my yard. Starts chirping at 4 AM and keeps on until after 8:30. (This is a larger "problem" when one works at home).

I have a financial review meeting this afternoon and I genuinely looked forward to the dentist more that this. I like my advisor but these meetings are BORING. Thank you for reading my extremely petty kvetch.

A peony picture because I love them and they never last long enough.

I picked one interesting time to log into FB. Two sisters are currently airing their politics with each other.

I can't find my photo, but I've seen Paisano Pete in Fort Stockton, TX.

If you see this, quote skeet with a famous landmark you’ve seen. The world’s largest soup kettle, Laona, Wisconsin

Happy Birthday to Bob Dylan.

I have three varsity letters in football.

What's something about you that sounds made up but it's not? Mine is one time I made a t shirt for my bicycle gang and it looked too much like a motorcycle club logo so I had to go before a Bandidos general and plead my case to use it and also not to be killed

Some flowers for your Sunday

Status: sinus/allergy headache since Saturday. Tired of this now.

#tbt OTD 2014.

vetmed.illinois.edu/pet-health-c... Worth sharing, focused on Illinois.

Cicadas: Pet Treat or Pet Threat? - Veterinary Medicine at Illinoisvetmed.illinois.edu Veterinarians from the College of Veterinary Medicine offer reassurances that cicadas do not have to be a threat to pets this spring.

Thinking today about the German-speaking Mennonites I met at the Chinese buffet in Dodge City, KS OTD in 2012. One of the more "American" experiences I've had.

This headache can take a hike anytime.

Happy Birthday @brewcitychaser.bsky.social ! I'm glad you're here.

This week has been fairly crummy. I'm an expert on digging for the pony but my shovel feels heavier than usual right now. That is all.

Now accepting any and all good karma you can spare. 😬

@chriswarcraft.bsky.social More like-minded individuals re: public libraries.

Public libraries, public schools, public parks, public beaches. Fight for 'em all.
