a very merry fuck you to the neighbor launching christmas fireworks and freaking out the dogs

mona welcoming me home

I’m home!

I didn’t get a picture of the food because I ate half of it before I remembered, but here is the ticket, since so many were interested/surprised by the menu this morning. This was also pretty tasty, given the setting and constraints. If all goes well, I’ll be discharged before dinner.

Mac should definitely get hired as a food reviewer. Thread:

Entertain me with your best glowing food reviewer description of my hospital breakfast. (Tbh, I think this is going to hit the spot, so no need to insult anything or anyone, just make this meal sound glorious for me please!) PS: Pain is significantly improved today! Yay!

things that prevent lengthy sleep in a hospital even when you are on The Good Drugs: - “hi, I just need to take your vitals” - bladder: “guess what?! Yup, that IV diuretic sure does work!” - BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

thank you all for the well wishes and critter pics i’d write more but I just took trazadone and dilaudid i expect to wake up sometime after the heat death of the universe **click**

If anyone is looking for hope this holiday season it can be found on a corn syrup tank car in Northtown Yard

a completely different pair walked by and Mona sounded a false alarm and got everyone riled, Wickson is not amused

congrats all you southern hemisphere suckers your next six months will be an onslaught of steadily decreasing daylight

when @micromayhem.bsky.social goes for a run with her training partner

this isn’t a football game, it’s ritual slaughter

Blew my mind as a suburban kid to visit grandparents in rural Minnesota and see actual newspaper articles about who went to whose house for dinner on what nights, what was served, etc. The surveillance state is endemic to small town conservatism.

according to Wickson, huskies are lap dogs

Ant was OK but not great in his game back from injury… but this stretch of 39 seconds to end the game is what makes him such a beast. He can beat you in every aspect of the game. 3pt to take the lead. Block. Rebound. Steal. Impressive all-aspects effort to win a close game.

ain’t so easy to win when the refs don’t roll out the red carpet for ya all night, is it okc?

Sooners were rather Vikingesque tonight.

little known fact: before the white stripes released seven nation army, sports stadiums would go through lengthy periods of utter silence multiple times a game

the funniest thing would be if the doj didn’t realize pdfs are a layered format and somehow released a bunch of documents with black boxes on the upper layer visually but everything else still accessible underneath in the document data not a guarantee, prob not even likely, but technically possible

it’s ok to practice self-care and not go down the rabbit hole of today’s release from doj

so just how soon does he plan to fulfill the “memorial” part

Everyone please give best wishes to @micromayhem.bsky.social I’m still recovering from my surgery, and now the boys both have their wisdom teeth removal tomorrow. Megs is here for the moment to help but leaves Monday, so Susan is gonna be running a M*A*S*H unit for the near future. Her “help”:

As someone who has been on Adderall for many years, what we saw out of Trump tonight was not Adderall-driven. Enough cocaine to reanimate a dead horse and even dumber than same? Quite possible! But not Adderall.

i cannot think of a better example of how techbros view democracy than calling a vote “mob rule”

Mona has no comment today, but her Plott Knot is immaculate #MonaMonday

NFC NORTH Did you beat the Cowboys? Bears ✅ Lions ✅ Vikings ✅ Packers ❌ lolol ❌ ❌ ❌

the X is gonna blow the roof off today when they announce hughes in the starting lineup for the first time

Megs arriving home last night: Wickson: OMG IT’S MY MEGGSY YAY IT’S MY MEGGSY OMG PET ME PET ME PET ME OMG OMG OMG Mona: where’s my treat, bitch?

watching chet get pwned will never get old

the kitchen table appears to have a popcorn-loving gremlin living beneath it

Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

1/? - Some of you may recall my love for Ivan #Aivazovsky, the 19th-C painter who many consider to be THE greatest maritime artist ever. His #seascapes capture turbulent waves in motion like no other; his use of light blows my mind. An #Art appreciation thread of some favs. 🎨🌊 1st, The Shipwreck:

if you have five post-op surgical sites in your abdomen i highly suggest not sneezing especially twice

ok #musherSky who is going to start running moguls with their dogs?

trump is gonna insist on being honorary coach in 2028

as a wisconsin resident… accurate

***long slow whistle***

hey white locals, taqueria la hacienda was COMPLETELY FUCKING EMPTY at 5:30 on a friday night when it's usually PACKED. I bet Habañero is empty too :( Go get some tacos. They're both pickup only right now to protect drivers from ice.

idea courtesy of my brother: who needs to get involved to start a meat raffle at ingebretsen’s?

lol

this is also known as “planning a coup”

I’m still sick and woozy from post-op but even I’m coherent enough to know that the 25th doesn’t do what people want it to do. Lost track of how many times I’ve seen it mentioned today and I haven’t even been online that much. Please, stop it. He can’t be permanently removed that way.

woodbine vs pollox the world awaits

meat sacks are stupid
