My kids separated by 33 years, on vacation together at the Outer Banks this week. Family is the most precious thing in the world to me.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Nothing lasts forever...except the fire hose of WTF coming out of Washington.

I saw numerous odd things while passing through trail towns on my AT thru-hike. This live bait vending machine was beside a gas station in Delaware Water Gap, PA, right on the river at the New Jersey State line. The people there were very hospitable, and we stayed in a church-run hostel that has free showe... social.lol https://social.lol/@amerpie/114563779543928388

Remember: April is Procrastination Awareness Month!

My favorite part is "Then I bust out."

I wish I had a dollar for every time someone said to me, "It's only working because you're here."

Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him (oh, man, this is so bad, it's good) ... a super-calloused fragile ... social.lol https://social.lol/@amerpie/114556754856551229

What song best matches the energy of today? We Are Family by Sister Sledge - Just to prove I'm not a music snob, I'll readily admit to having a few disco favorites and this is o... social.lol https://social.lol/@amerpie/114556565465623674

Every spring, I buy thistle seeds to attract the goldfinches to my yard. I think they are one of the loveliest birds around. #birds - https://amerpie.lol/2025/05/23/goldfinch.html - #Photography #the100pics Follow me on Pixelfed @amerpie@pxlmo.com https://social.lol/tags/birds https://amerpie.lol/2025/05/23/goldfinch.html https://social.lol/tags/Photography https://social.lol/tags/the100pics https://pxlmo.com/amerpie

Thanks! I have Raindrop.io & will try it as a read it later app. Exporting from from Pocket and importing was easy I also have Goodlinks and Reeder. I set up a Wallabag instance and used its Pocket importer. I have the iOS app and the browser extension, so I'll see how it goes. @birv2 @hryggrbyr @keyboardf... social.lol https://social.lol/@amerpie/114554432675574965

I just got notified that Pocket, the read it later service by Mozilla is shutting down on July 8. What alternatives have decent Mac integration? I want things like RSS feeds, browser integration, the ability to route newsletters through it, iOS access and Obsidian plugins. I don't care about Kindle integra... social.lol https://social.lol/@amerpie/114552593107705771

Go home rainbow, you're drunk. (Feeling down after being attacked by too many MAGAts). Looking forward to PRIDE next month.

Possibly one of the most unnerving photos I have ever seen. I had absolutely no idea there were snakes in the ocean along the US east coast.

Good morning from Carolina Beach, NC. The pelicans are out early looking for breakfast. #birds. - https://amerpie.lol/2025/05/22/pelicans-in-flight.html - #Photography #the100pics Follow me on Pixelfed @amerpie@pxlmo.com https://social.lol/tags/birds https://amerpie.lol/2025/05/22/pelicans-in-flight.html https://social.lol/tags/Photography https://social.lol/tags/the100pics https://pxlmo.com/amerpie

The impending painful cancer caused demise of Dilbert creator, Scott Adams, American neo-Nazi scum, will be the in my top three favorite deaths of the decade along with Pat Robertson and Rush Limbaugh.

Once a year, my boss used to let me ride my bike to school and give the kids a talk to encourage cycling and safety. I would have done it every day except for the 80-mile round trip part of the deal. Every job is within #cycling distance if you have the time. https://social.lol/tags/cycling

Jordan Lake, located near Raleigh in central North Carolina, is a reliable place to see bald eagles and has been for years. Itâs a pretty nice place for paddle boarding, fishing and boating. There are 1,000+ campsites around the lake. - https://amerpie.lol/2025/05/21/paddleboard-photo.html - #Photography... social.lol https://social.lol/@amerpie/114545593105560945
