The Metaxy

Neither gods nor beasts but participants. I live in a Maynard Dixon painting. 5th-gen. Arizonian.

I’ll tell ya, friends: Few things in life are as profound as a strong sense of place. Nothing compares to possessing intimate knowledge of a specific spot on this Earth, a piece of the world that is yours, which belongs to you and, deeper still, to which you belong.

Who I am was formed here, in the land of the saguaro.

Here is my territory.
Here is my country.
Here is my patria.

@Hopeleslie1234 haha I tried to reply to your Operation post

@MaeOfFable @elbh haha deep cut

@MaeOfFable @elbh It always seemed pretty clear what Jill Biden loves.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@JoelMCurzon As do I. But I have to choose my battles.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

I’m hearing deep booms & automatic weapons fire not far off, and not from the usual direction. Has the invasion finally arrived? Or is it just another Friday night on the desert? In case it’s the former, I want to go out on a pretty picture, so here ya go, bye it’s been fun

@PerpetualDrift So cool! The classic staircase put me in mind of the Gadsden, down in Douglas.

@WilliamE1863 @greendragonhq He’d need to read only two, maybe three paragraphs about why the Electoral College was established to destroy the same idiotic arguments against it advanced again and again and again by every moron whose very existence is a drag on this country. But he won’t. Of course he won’t.

@stuffed @cmpopper I didn’t know her last name was Helper, either. What an inattentive child I must have been!

@CreativelyOn (I really just didn’t want to take a picture of it inside the trailer 😜)

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

Do I enjoy a mirror set inside an old horse collar?
I do.
Do I care what level of “-brow” that supposedly renders me?
I do not.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@owroot Watched that for the first time a few days ago and yes, agree.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@MaeOfFable @elbh I was caring for my ma with Alz at the time and it was uncanny, seeing the same deterioration I’d observed in her when seeing the President of the United States.

@joelgaines All the word *moist* makes me think of is old Duncan Hines cake mix commercials.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@Jonsered2071 Fully aware, like I say, not from the usual direction.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@stuffed @cmpopper Millie! I wouldn’t have remembered the name in a thousand years.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

I thought he was going to pop a blood vessel. It was weird to see good ol’ neighbor Jerry red-faced and screaming. But it was interesting how, after the cast introductions, the production just does what it does and they talk to each other as if there’s no audience hearing and seeing everything.

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@JautryTX @yoopermomma 🤣🤣🤣

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@stuffed @cmpopper I also saw a taping of Happy Days. The only thing I remember is the director (Jerry, the neighbor from Dick van Dyke) chewing out Joanie in front of the audience for having gotten her hair trimmed without clearing it with continuity or whoever tracks that stuff. V. uncomfortable.

@Vero_atLast I named a butte on my property Brünnhildes Fels. If it’s good enough for a butte on my property, it plenty fine for a daughter!

[The Metaxy @LifeInTheMetaxy]

@stuffed I don’t know whether the architectural team will share your reaction but I hope so! Thank you.
