Goodnight.

Weird Al was a fun time. The people sitting on either side of us were annoying, but we didn't let it put a damper on things. I almost peed myself when I saw how much a single slice of pizza cost, though.

Fucking A.

We have seen Puddles Pity Party and are waiting for Weird Al after some people squeezed in here, in what is supposed to be an ADA compliant section.

Train finally came. It is half full of boisterous drinkers who debarked in Newburyport and went to bars while the drawbridge issue was figured out. Thank the gods for my Loops.

Train is an hour late 🫩

Small figure of a man made from putty, apparently used as a love charm, with two dried roses. Inside of a straw work box with a lid. Found circa 1897 at Hereford. prm.ox.ac.uk/collections-...

Seen on my walk today…

Canadians and Northern USers, you would be shocked how well these work! Please, please, if you have the time and the money, make one.

This woman is awful, BUT way too many men have been doing this for ages without actually admitting it, and it's just taken for granted by them and everyone else.

Happy 47th day of Pride Month! To celebrate, here's queer allies Kirk and Spcok

🎶Guess who just showed up today Those wild-eyed boys who burn and slay They're not a single ethnic group per se But they'll end Mycenaean civilization

Look at this bat

Massive shitty headache from the smell of chemical smoke in the air all day, but now it's raining so maybe that will stop. Or get worse. Either way it's time for painkillers.

Taylor Farms also sells bagged lettuce to grocery chains. Thank the regime for firing enough federal personnel so that we don't have adequate food safety inspection, I guess.

This is a good statement

Good gods, these poor people. I'm glad they escaped, but yikes.

A fledgling crow is making goofy squawky noises outside, but I know its parents are keeping an eye on it because every time another animal comes around, they caw and chase it off. I can't see it from my house, it's in the bushes two backyards over.

I am in this image and I don't like it.

Separately, a small update on the Jennifer Finch of L7's fundraiser for her brain cancer treatment. Per an FB post the other day from her team, they've fully achieved their medical care goal this week, a wonderful thing. Fundraising will continue, to secure her archive and help with creative work.

on this day in 1995, scientists discovered bisexuality. happy 31st birthday to all my fellow bs

The Crow II. All I remember now is the Crow snarling "DADDYS GONNA BUY YOU A BIG BLACK BIRD!" before crushing someone's windpipe. I think the person I was with fell asleep midway through.

During those orange sky days we decorated our patio with a “brunching in hell” theme

I've never even looked at r/creepypasta, but goddamnit...we can't just enjoy anything without some corporation sweeping in and taking it over, can we? Everything in our lives is potential copyrighted material for some C-suite assholes to make money. EVERYTHING. Fuck these shitheels.

This is fucking awesome

I have a plush shark called Joseph Smith the Founder of Mormonism (its not important why), and he's ancient and weird-looking. I've realised that telling my group chat "Oh, I must give Joseph Smith the Founder of Mormonism a bath" does raise a LOT of questions.

#OtD 16 Jul 1862 feminist, writer, and anti-racist and anti-lynching activist Ida B. Wells was born. Wells' investigative journalism documented lynchings in the American south, and she was one of the founders of the @NAACP stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8788...

when i pull out the egg and all my homies start hootin and hollerin’ like “ooooHHH SHIT. LOOK Y’ALL. IT A EGG.”

The horrors persist but so do mushrooms

I like checking up on this tree. I don't think it has many years left, so I like to see the claimed 'Nova Scotia's oldest maple' while it's still vertical. The real age isn't known due to hollowing, but it's been known to be a noteworthily old tree since the 1800s so the estimate is just "over 300"

Today’s cat is haunting my closet #CatBreak #BlueskyCats #CatSky

The roses outside are thriving, at least.

David Duffelbag. Good grief. I sound like a guy who fences stolen sports memorabilia.
