Finally a starry night here on Waiheke. I took a few photographs, using a Pixel 6 and a tissue box as a makeshift tripod.
@georgetakei Sorry, i can't stop laughing.

Today, the Scottish Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of protecting trans rights. It wasn't even close. The lawmakers of Scotland actually listened to medical experts, respected science, and refused to permit hateful propaganda to dictate control of vulnerable people. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

On the #longestNight of the year I slept poorly. Awake from 3:00 until after 6:00, finally sleeping then, but the alarm was just a few minutes later.

Can prob blame that #espresso I had with supper last night…

I'm sorry I drank
that espresso
that I ordered
after dinner last night

and which I probably
should have saved
for breakfast.

It was delicious,
so dark and
bitter and hot

I'm not sure who I'm trying to impress with my naked portafilter. I'm pretty sure it does not produce better espresso, but it definitely produces a bigger mess.
