Actor. And other things. Happily married.
The Watch Duty folks can't say it, but I can... #HeadFire - get out ASAP. Mass evacuations recommended and priority to get people to safety. "extreme behavior". (i.e. get out of Dodge!) #SiskiyouCounty
@ai6yr my cousin did an interview today. Talks about the fire and relief efforts. Really good interview. https://www.msnbc.com/yasmin-vossoughian/watch/sailing-company-using-tourist-catamaran-to-transport-supplies-after-maui-wildfires-190712901686

Corvid enthusiasts who were on twitter before coming here will remember my friend Kris Tsujikawa's crow photographs. Below, two of her latest, posted with permission.

Kris is on the board of PAWS, a local pet and wildlife rescue and rehabilitation organization, and is close to her fundraising goal for this year. If you miss Kris's photography, take a look at what PAWS does and consider making a donation to her campaign.

The Olive Tree of Vouves is believed to be the oldest olive tree in the world. Its exact age is impossible to measure, but it's at least 2000 years old, and could be as much as 4000 years old. This means it was likely originally planted by the Ancient Minoan civilisation, who prospered by trading in olive oil on the ancient Mediterranean Sea 🫒

In a conversation on reddit today someone asked if other languages have phrases like "rightie tightie, leftie loosie" to remember which way to turn screws/lids/etc. And one person answers that in Spanish, the phrase is:

"La derecha oprime, la izquierda libera."

or:

"The right oppresses, the left liberates."

(Now I kind of want to put this on a t shirt)
