Sunday Sums and Parts For May 10, 2026

The idea here is that I was playing with all the summaries and parts of my week, playing off of the sum of all the parts saying. The parts will be recapping things I’ve done on different corners of the internet, and the sums are different things I’m turning over in my brain. Maybe we…

Embracing the Idea of Naïve Art

My sister Jasmine and I were having a conversation recently about hobbies and art, when she said, “You know, Kristi, I think you should embrace the idea of naïve art more.” And maybe the name is obvious, but I went ahead and asked her, “What is naïve art?” In short, it is art developed by…

6 Things to Love About DuckTales

Today is National Donald Duck Day, and I would say that Donald Duck was one of my favorite Mickey Mouse characters growing up. And as an adult, I fell in love with the rebooted version of DuckTales. So today, I wanted to talk about why I think DuckTales is a great show and why you…
