Mama's little supermodel. #lifewithbeagles

Mama's been working on more collars. These ones are Mootested and Mooproved! 2 custom dog collars are up for auction with @lolapatolla.bsky.social on the Rescue Coop annual fundraiser right now. Murph Mama can do LOTS of kinds of designs!

Tomorrow is @lolapatolla.bsky.social major fundraiser for 501c3 rescuecoop.org. If you have never bid before, I urge you to have a look, register, bid, and share. Why? For dogs like my beloved Daisy, who came from Rescue Coop broken and hopeless, but lives a life of luxury now. They all matter.

Good morning, good morning. It's great to stay up late. Good morning, good morning to you. #lifewithbeagles

My dogs all love this blanket. Beans used to always get itvwhen she was still with us, now Murphy and Molly have taken up the mantle.

There is a special need for "masculine" items. I dunno, kilts, beer of the month club, and Duluth underwear maybe???? Gently used items are absolutely welcome... but maybe not the underwear.

🎶I keep my fist raised up, full time, against the world🎶

A symphony in Z...

Attention #beagle peeps: Here is a collar set I made for the Rescue Coop auction starting May 1st! Break out your wallets to support a worthwhile small rescue with their major annual fundraiser! @lolapatolla.bsky.social #dogsofbluesky

🎶Let's go Murphin' now, everybody's learnin' how, come on a Murphari with me.🎶 #dogs #lifewithbeagles

I have been around here since the 'need an invitation' days & noticed one thing that is profoundly lacking - engagement for average, everyday accounts. It's nice not having to look at neo nazi and make America white again, but bluesky can't take off without engagement. People like to feel heard.

We will be donating two custom dog collars to the cause. In difficult times, we find solace not in complaint, nor anger, nor self-pity but in service to worthy causes. Please consider donating an item, or making a bid. STARTS MAY 1!

Finally, it all comes down to number one. The best band, with the best name ever... The Dropkick Murphys with 'Middle Finger' Keep your fists raised up frens✊️ For more great Murphys, try 'Chosen Few', 'Smash Shit Up' or 'Going Out in Style' youtu.be/NEqniZcaU6Y?...

Murph's number 2 pick on #paws4music, is a favorite of MurphMama. It's Green Day's 2000 hit "Minority" "I pledge allegiance to the underworld, one nation under dog, there of which I stand alone." BTW, did you know 'American Idiot' was actually a Broadway show? youtu.be/Vv3lTgGn0mc?...

#paws4music Next, near and dear to this old dog's heart, a song about retirement, from one of the greatest pop/rock pianists of his time. Here's Billy Joel, with 'Miami 2017' For more of some of the most technically challenging piano, try 'Stilleto' or 'Angry Young Man' youtu.be/-jlUisc_Bik?...

#paws4music And now for something completely different, Pirates for Sail's "Tyme Flyes When You're Havin' Rum" The sea shanty/Irish folk rock sing is experiencing a well-deserved resurgence. For more of this type, try Nathan Evans, Darby O'Gill or the Blaggards. youtu.be/RIsigWHfF3g?...

#paws4music While the Beasties are forever a rap band, their 1st album, Pollywog Stew, was punk. MurphMama is a (former) Brooklyn girl, and it's never far from our hearts. "White Boys got more rhymes!" DJ Murph spinning The Beastie Boys with 'No Sleep Til Brooklyn' youtu.be/07Y0cy-nvAg?...

Picking 5 out of 500,000 great songs was HARD work, y'all! I'll be needing a snack after this. In the end, I just chose 5 songs that speak to me. Give them a listen, you might like them!

One more test for #paws4music tomorrow before Murph gets out of the booth to chase squirrels. This is one of the greatest modern-day drummers, Phil Collins and Genesis, with 'Abacab'. For a real treat hear some of the best of Phil's drumming on 'The Fountain of Salmacis' youtu.be/suCNZe3Gwkw?...

From the stacks to the racks, it's the best on wax... Murph gets to host #paws4music tomorrow. I wanted to practice a couple for you today. Here's what Murph thinks is one of the most creative videos around. I'm tellin' y'all it's "Sabotage" by the Beastie Boys.. youtu.be/z5rRZdiu1UE?...

#dogs #lifewithbeagles This kind of day today.

Da rescue we foster with, Lucky Pup Rescue SC, owes over $7k in vet bills. If you have $ to spare, would you consider a donation? It’s a 501c3 organization. They’re starting their $5 Friday early b/c they’re desperate! You could even win a Yeti cooler! www.luckypuprescuesc.com

Find a cause you have great passion for: nix pluto, kick the hippies, tie dye all underwear... whatever... then support it with all you can muster. But more than that, associate with, support, and vote for those who ALSO support it. When ideology becomes action, your world begins to align with you.

I see you have snacks there. #lifewithbeagles #dogs

Murph is making 2 custom, heavy-duty collars for the auction on May 1. You can choose the design, colors, and details, and we'll make it for you. If you can't donate, please bid. If you can't bid, please share! Your support means dogs' lives!

Here's a dog. #lifewithbeagles

Critical thinking starts with "Why?" Anytime anyone does something you think is off, your FIRST response should be why? Ex: If 100 orange Legos are wreaking havoc, and someone is fighting to imprison 1 blue Lego, "why" will lead you to conclude they have NO solution to the orange Lego problem.

🎶Stop. Beagle time.🎶 #lifewithbeagles #dogsofbluesky

Just a PSA for those who care: Ceramic coatings on cars are crap. They provide no protection over what you get from a professional wax job.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" The US is now on the global human rights watchlist alongside Sudan, Columbia, Afghanistan.

Just what are you up to, Mama? #dogsofbluesky

Does this carpet make my butt look fat? #dogs #lifewithbeagles

Mom! Beans is touching me! #dogs #lifewithbeagles

I'm bored. You're boring me mama. #dogs #lifewithbeagles

I often give religion a hard time, as I put my faith in science. But there have been many religious resisters. This photo comes courtesy of the New England Holocaust Memorial.

We have a commitment for Baton Rouge to Tallahassee. Currently seeking Cleveland, Texas to Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Spring has sprung, the grass has riz. I wonder where daylight savings iz? Enjoy that extra hour of daylight! Make all the vitamin D you can! #dogs

🎶if you see me comin' better step aside. A lotta dogs didn't, a lotta dogs died. One fist of iron, the other of steel. If the right don't get ya then the left one will." #dogs #toughenough

News sources you can consider reliable: CNN, MSN, NBC, BBC, ABC, your local news team, your local paper, possibly News Nation (more info needed still), HNN, PBS, NPR. News sources you should always consider unreliable: Anything else you see anywhere on the internet.

Did you know: There is a light bulb that has been continually lit for 115+ years, made by Shelby. When GE bought Shelby, they colluded to create uniform "standards" for light bulbs to ensure they would have to be regularly replaced. Ain't corporate America great? spectrum.ieee.org/the-great-li...

Oh my gosh! Two of my favorite things, @artbyheim.bsky.social art that benefits Rescue Coop @lolapatolla.bsky.social ! If you don't know these folks, get to know them. They both do GREAT work!

Did you know... If you shake a can of soda, then stand it on a flat surface, and rotate it a few times, you will be able to open it without "soda spray." Because... science.
