My preferred client app for the Micro.blog service. It’s always improving, and is even open source.

The Micro.blog challenge this week is artwork and drawings. I will share some of my building drawings, done in Linea Sketch on my iPad Pro with Apple Pencil. Today, some early chicken coop concepts. 🎨 #mbmay

For the last quote of this week’s Micro.blog mini challenge, here’s one from Heinlein’s famous Stranger in a Strange Land: 📚💬 #mbmay

I had thought -- I had been told -- that a 'funny' thing is a thing of goodness. It isn't. Not ever is it funny to the person it happens to. The goodness is in the laughing. ... it is a bravery -- and a sharing -- against pain and sorrow and defeat.

I included a GIF of this at the end of the Caturday post, but here’s a video edition of it. Thanks to Camect for generating the summary. 🐈

This quote from Heinlein’s Time Enough for Love seems appropriate (or something) on my birthday: 🙃📚💬 #mbmay

Delusions are often functional. A mother's opinions about her children's beauty, intelligence, goodness, et cetera ad nauseam, keep her from drowning them at birth.

A special birthday treat for breakfast: homemade green eggs and ham. Very tasty.

Yesterday’s second attempt at sourdough bread turned out a bit better than the first time, though still a bit too much hydration, I think. 🍞

As a responsible flag owner, I have lowered my flag to half-staff as directed by the presidential proclamation to honor the victims of the pandemic, though I don’t understand why; not like it’s over. Is this another “Mission Accomplished” situation?
