My husband and I had thought a devoted pair of mourning doves come to splash in our pool while we swim laps because they recognized we are cool to hang with. Then we realized it‘s because they figured out the hawk that hunts from our roof wouldn’t attack them with us there. I hope they tell the bunny family we are stellar guards. I wanna whole coterie like a Disney princess.

My local park has two magpies that are always together. Soulmates . Their dark denim wings fly parallel, dancing in unison as if they never expect the other to be gone, they trust eachother. And I trust them. I trust there will be ever flowing joy whenever i am in that park and so far I’ve managed to escape the sorrow. Their presence protects me. I never want to take these “two for joy” for granted, so I just wish there was a way I could say thank you. Maybe I should squawk at them.

Our ancient interspecies partners, now orphaned in exile. Have you ever seen a pigeon nest? They need us. We will need them. How are you going to send letters to your best friend when society collapses? Better get a pigeon now and start training. I'm partial to the classic Rock Dove style but look at their range! So many colors, shapes, frills. On the way home from the allergist this morning I saw three pigeons bathing in a dirty puddle. They're just out here scraping by like the rest of us.

looking at animals around my house/neighborhood. its so cool that they live and even thrive, despite the suburban human’s attempts to eliminate them. That said I miss the chipmunk who used to come around and hope she comes back this spring/wasn’t eaten by a hawk

Jackie O is entranced by lowbrow casseroles in particular (Frito pie, anyone?). Best sick day companion.

Antidepressants have worked in the past to dig me out of acute depression, but my big monster is the anxiety. A daily beta blocker for the anxiety has helped me work on what I need to in therapy. A process still but getting somewhere.

If you’re in LA - GO! It’s like a a Christmas miracle in art form. So hard to pick just one photo. And definitely watch the making-of and discovery videos. Even the merch is good - I want a stuffed Basquiat baboon butt!
