Just spent the afternoon walking through the Great American Farmers Market on the National Mall, and wow. 🇺🇸 From creamy heritage cheeses to a bold new meat purveyor out of Wyoming serving up 100% grass-fed, no grains/soy, no antibiotic, hormones or mRNA. I had some great conversations with the folks feeding this country. Ranchers, cheese-makers, dreamers.

In the shadow of the Capitol and the Washington Monument, it’s clear: the future of the United States of America hopefully tastes like our past, pure, honest, sassy and made by hand, and a little or a lot of hard days work.

Got some cheese and salami, coming back tomorrow, to get some wagyu ribeyes, and hotdogs.

Yesterday night was preview evening at the Air and Space Museum. Had fun, the renovations are not completed yesterday not officially until 2026, but I have not been in this building wandering around like this since I was a kid, I went to a fancy thing there one night in undergrad but that didn’t count.

I stepped into the vast timeline of aviation, imagination, and innovation at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum during the preview evening.

From the legendary R2-D2, X-Wing Fighter, and the silent wisdom of Marvin the Paranoid Android from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, to real Apollo circuit boards and visionary aircraft like Nemesis, each exhibit wasn’t just history, but a provocation:

“Who decides which future?”

As I witnessed the “Futures in Space” installation, the message rang clear: Tomorrow isn’t waiting, it’s here and it’s asking questions. And we must answer.

I didn’t get 🍑 peaches from my usual place, I turned back around, was a van burning and beginning to melt power lines and traffic was backing up on S.C. 9 fire truck had not arrived yet, so decided to stop by Jimmy Cox Peaches roadside stand. I must say after a sample, they got me, a jumbo basket. I’m going to make deserts, preserves, and cider. Hit me up it you want some 🍻 🍺.

Amir and Claudina Browder’s Wedding

Location: 1. Kreeger Museum (Wedding was in D.C.)
2. Blue Rock Inn (Reception was Washington, VA)

As the museum was closing I walked in no one for the wedding was there yet. I walked around the museum, have never been there before, took some photos, well a lot of photos. Posted are just a few of my favorites. Once ceremony started went outside it was brutal (heat) once ceremony was completed and the bride and groom took photos, we headed to Washington, VA to the Blue Rock Inn.

As they set and stage the table and the bride got ready, we bent the elbow 🍹 and walked the grounds of the inn, it is quite beautiful. Dinner was excellent the executive chef Aaron Bachoon, came to say hello after the 3rd course, then he went back to continue that deliciousness. Bent the elbow some more, had some laughs, they cut the cake, some more laughs, some more wine, then I went upstairs to a great sleep.

Note I gave the bride and groom:

“From day-one laughs to forever love, wishing you both a life full of joy, faith, and the good kind of crazy.”

📣 FIRST DROP ALERT ⛳️🧢

Location: Forestville Mall (Mr. Tees Embroidery)

Just got the first official merch from the Cult Fanatic Golf 2025 collection, I designed it so it’s official. These are trucker style, performance style has not come in, and those have the design as an old school patch style. I will add to marketplace. So far I have designed caps, bucket hats, vest, golf gloves, and sweaters, and some special tees for the ladies, looking at manufacturers for bags and more. Going to run some ads for everything, I just don’t like doing that side of things, and I have beaucoup things to promote.

To the ones who swing hard, speak sharp, and stay fanatically loyal to their craft, and coven.

🚀 Excited to share a major milestone in my life!

Today, I submitted both a PCT and U.S. non‑provisional patent application for my Merchant‑Customer Augmented Reality Engagement System, a transformative technology I invented for my grad school dissertation in Corporate Social Responsibility in 2012. Last year this time I filed a provisional patent application, and this year I followed up by securing immediate rights at home, and future international protection.

This is a highly sophisticated and thought out immersive consumer/citizen to business/government technology. I celebrated solo at Langston by working on my short game with my recently delivered irons/wedges. Then I took it in to keep moving towards the future.

I must admit I was a little down after my highway digital billboard project did not receive permit approval, but that is the price of building a vision, an empire alone from your basement apartment. I put so much energy, time, effort, planning into my hobbies, projects and more.

I want to say “Thank You” to Me for believing in Me and IP counsel for enabling this vision. If no one believes in you, in life or in love, believe in yourself. I have a few more things to do until my working MVP is finished and ready for testing (now that journey has been interesting. Ask me about it sometime). I still have a lot of work to do before I move on to the next steps, licensing and some more stuff. This is still all new to me.

I’m excited and I cried a little. These are the breaks you go through when you go at it alone. “Always Encourage Yourself, and Keep Pushing Forward.”

In the war-torn trenches of my backyard garden, the mole surprisingly struck first, stealing, eating, my cauliflower, broccoli & leeks in a brutal blitz.

But I did not falter.

Today, from seed and soil, my first bounty after the smorgasbord heist.

My first heirloom zucchini squash.

Not just food, resistance incarnate. 🌱

I’m making chicken wire fencing as we speak.

I have been wanting to make a tarot card deck since I was a little boy and was fascinated by alchemy. I finally decided to do so about a year and a half ago. Had to get a plan for idea. I have only created the major arcana deck. Call it “Erick’s Beesmash Ai Tarot Card Deck.”

Since today is the beginning of Gemini ♊️ season I decided to show the Beesmah Ai Tarot Card Deck, well not whole deck yet just The Lovers card and the back of the first version of the deck. It uses my, Erick Lester Brown Ai art style framework equation.

Got back from the yesterday and garden was full of abundance. Come back over today, to water and something 🐭🐹🐰🦝🦡 got into the raised bed and it ate all the broccoli leaves and heads, also a small piece of cauliflower and ate 2 leek stalks, didn’t touch squash leaves and blossoms blooming

Didn’t touch tomatoes or beets. Going to install a cage out of chicken wire to fix them.

Quote by me, Ebz:

“What you’re seeing is not random,” “This is what we call ‘adaptive foraging,’ where animals remember and return to specific food sources. A broccoli buffet in Southside WDC? That’s five-star dining.”

After golf lessons, a little apres golf (said I wasn’t bending the elbow, but when you buy a digital highway billboard and the permits fall through, leaves you feeling some type of way), (amongst the disappointment I already had another plan for that location, ready🔥, it is what it is, in life and in love), I was a down, a little, it is what it is.) Met a little lady, PINECONE who sat next to me to brighten my evening, as my team came in, I believe second at trivia night, we lost by 1pts.

Well contractors began work yesterday. Feel good about this crew, especially being six hours away. After I dropped off a few things, tested out my new clubs at , family giving me clubs for my B-day (Memorial Day) another expensive hobby🤷🏾‍♂️, looking for a golf mate 🙋‍♀️ (only got 3 clubs and more, yesterday with the help of the guys at the experience was cool getting fitted, I defiantly am getting better (all my life always sliced to the right) getting some custom irons and 3 more clubs to finish out my beginner bag.

My apres-golf (I’m trying to make the term popular) drink was at the tiki shake, whiskey, and cider.haven’t had a burger in a while, had to go for dinner I thought they had music oh well, more whiskey and cider. Last day drinking until my pizza and Malbec chill on my b-day.

Going to use my custom gpt, Janus GPT (try it out, set for everything in do, now for the public search: Janus GPT on for now, then I will be solo in the AI game, still filling patents 👌🤖, and I create massive amounts or data and indexing sometimes be exhausting.
