@donieosullivan @drewharwell Twitter fired the 2 guys they had reviewing appeals in 1982. You will wait a LONG time.

I was blessed with a double portion of generosity today. So, the single mom who told me she unfortunately wouldn't be able to get the paintings she commissioned until after the holidays, got her paintings at no charge.

We can get through the messy and painful times if we remember how to take care of each other. Today's events were life affirming for me. Life has been painful, but today reminded me I'll be okay.

@godpod they called me crazy when I installed a Pachyderm repellent in my backyard...

I'm desperately trying to permanently leave the bird app, but as a freelance journalist, it has also been a crucial tool in getting work

I'm posting my favorite stories from 2022 here with the hopes that I can find community here: (boosts very welcome)

1) My beat in Colombia can get pretty grisly. But this year also brought with a chance for me to focus on peace-building.

This was a fun one: I talked to demobilized guerillas who seek peace through brewing.

@godpod , I don't want to advocate for drugs and alcohol, but they have always worked for me.

@vivsmythe @kashhill , are you "lol"ing at the complexity of keeping those involved out, or the concept? I would never suggest it is easy. Look at Ukraine right now attempting to keep Russians out... it can be rather difficult, especially as the venue size increases.

@vivsmythe @kashhill , I can see that argument. But, I think if I was the target of a legal action, I would want no one involved in my venue. I wouldn't want them, their family, their lawyers, their investigators, or anyone else on my property. I would make that very clear that they were not welcome, and would not be served. I'm not sure why anyone would feel differently.

@kathygriffin , happy good people. Your social circle seems enviable.

@kashhill , I don't think journalists are suing venues. I don't think there is any equivalence. I suppose there can be an argument for there being some similarities, and motive to ban journalists, but I don't think those arguments are valid.

@kashhill , I think I agree with this policy, by the venue. If you are suing me, I don't want your business, and I don't want to give you access to any property of mine to gather information about my businesses.

Finished this today for a commission. I did things a little differently this time to make the colors more vibrant, and I like it!
