A screenshot of the shared article that states that Florida Republican Brian Mask [House of Representatives] is a former soldier of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF)—the very entity bombing and sniping and kidnapping, torturing, and murdering Palestinians in Gaza [all documented, horrifying realities]. The screenshot also links to a previous statement that Mask made that babies are “not innocent Palestinian civilians.” Last but not least, the screenshot includes text about how the bill has little reason to exist, save for allowing Marco Rubio unilateral power to strip passports/citizenship of people without them actually having been convicted or even charged of a crime.
A trifecta of photos of Kerri & Matt 12-ish years ago—one from our wedding day, both of us standing in a high alpine lake wiping tears from our eyes. The other two selfies featuring with big smiles [Kerri] and amazing mustaches [Matt].

Picture of our sweet black muppet pup (Toya!) in a bright orange jacket standing on gorgeous, freshly groomed corduroy next to freshly groomed classic tracks on one of our local xc ski trails. She’s staring straight ahead, at a grove of snowy firs and ponderosas beneath a bright blue and delightfully sunny February sky.
A Polaroid image of a wintry sunburst shining from behind fir and ponderosa trees on a bluebird day [taken by my wonderful partner, Matt] superimposed on top of another wintry image of fir and ponderosa trees covered in snow and blanketed in fog [also taken by my wonderful partner, Matt]. Matt takes great photos. Also, our hometown in the winter is a special kind of magic.
A bowl of “Makeshift Prosperity Noodles” featuring quick-pickled carrots and red onions made by Chef [Matt] Stebbins, with an adorable black dog’s cute snout poking out from behind the bowl, sniffing enthusiastically. That sweet snout belongs to our pup, Toya, who most definitely should not be so interested in onions.

August reading tracker template featuring book covers of the seven books Kerri read in August, including three “Murderbot” books by Martha Wells. They’re very good, and quite funny. She also and particularly loved We Are Alive, Beloved by Fred T. Joseph (a book of poems she happily bought, and recommends you buy, too).
Two humans named Kerri & Matt standing with their feet in an alpine lake in front of one of their favorite peaks on August 16, 2013, after just having read their wedding vows to each other in front of a small group of family and friends. It’s very gorgeous. And they are both definitely crying.
A beautiful alpine lake at sunrise, twin peaks shining in the background. The water was ice-cold and wonderful.
A bright and full (strawberry) full moon sinking slowly beneath the horizon in front of an alpine lake.
