Minor spoilers for the Prelude scenes in Frankenstein: I knew I'd like Guillermo del Toro's version of the creature when they said the sled dogs were unhurt but the man was all fucked up. 🤣

JFC this migraine Dr says his license shouldn't be revoked for demanding his female patients undress down to their panties for him to check their gaits. Also it took 3 patients to report this to the Cleveland Clinic ombudsman before anything was done. I'm furious! www.wkyc.com/article/news...

Alice I do not have the words you were such a pillar of strength in this community who graced us all with your presence and powerful knowledge. The world, and especially our disabled community has lost an absolute beacon of light. Thank you for promising to guide us from the other side. Fuck. RIP.

#UglyDogs We're going to howl with our friends for a good one.

Good journey, Alice Wong. You changed people's lives for the better & that's a rare gift.

Linda is asking for an awooooo at 1pm pacific tomorrow. You be the judge as to why. We will send the love and the peace up.

I'm almost impressed that 2025 managed to invent a whole new heretical sect that could never have existed before.

Come breathe with us for a minute. The winter storm passed, it's warm & sunny now, & I'm back to drinking tea while watching the birds. Music by Lilith Max. #UglyDogs

These fascist fucks shouldn't be invading any city. And also. it will forever crack me up that they got one tiny taste of a Chicago winter & they flee south. Such bold warriors!

@muppybean.bsky.social your snack choice delivery could've been worse

Having a normal one!

Idk if I'll see the aurora, but the last vestiges of sunset were really pretty

#uglydogs timeline brightener

Woe, for his snow has melted. The clouds are blowing by quickly though so 🤞I can see the aurora tonight.

IT GOT BETTER 📍Central MN

I'm a bit maudlin from sleep deprivation but I'm genuinely happy to see so many people going outside to see & photograph the aurora. The world is run by the shittiest people, we're all tired & broke, but we still want to marvel at the beauty in the sky.

Hey. Can I have your favorite memes please? I would like to text them to a friend of mine. When they dont respond to anything else, I can usually get a response to a meme. Even if its the eye roll emoji.

If you have clear skies, go look for the aurora! It can be seen as far south as KY tonight & further south tomorrow!

Someone posted that all these bipedal robots cost $25k just to simulate the experience of having a freeloader college roommate with a ketamine addiction. And I haven't been able to unsee that since.

Look, I know that fast fashion is terrible and I try to buy nothing new and repair what I have whenever possible. But my normal resistance to Temu ads is utterly undone by this objectively incredible item

I know this doesn't mean tower for rich families. But. The juxtaposition of Cleveland Clinic's newer buildings & wealthy patients and the inside of the old neurology building is just too on the nose.

Cleveland has no snow at all downtown. Which at least made the drive here easier. But man, this is too early to be coherent with my new POTS specialist.

In case you wondered, there's probably exactly one person who has licked the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

If you don't hear from me, it's because I'm recovering from an attack of deadly dog farts. 🤢 What's the scientific basis for why dogs always angle their butts at their human's face when they have the worst swamp rot flatulence? Pic of the offender:

Would you like to see a husky in snow? Music by Ulf Söderberg & the snow in the wind. #UglyDogs

Side note to the main points, obviously but... The example in the article of ultra processed manufacturing is that a cheese puff is unrecognizable from its corn meal base. But even whole grain or sourdough bread is unrecognizable from fucking yeast so 🤷‍♀️

Reposting this for all the nerds in Minnesota who will vibrate with excitement today for any mention of gales and November.

We're due to get our heaviest bands of lake effect snow today but at least Kieran got something this morning! #UglyDogs

Thought my weather app was glitching but nope, it's the winter storm that's drunk. Kieran keeps hoping the snow he smells on the air will be on the ground every time he goes outside. At least the wind chill is in the 20s now. #UglyDogs

All of this is confirming my belief that Republicans never learn from a loss and Democrats never learn from a win

If you're in Seattle and looking for a beautiful conversation dog, have I got a gal for you! Meet Kira! #rescuedog

JFC. If Dems don't realize this is just a different way to screw poor disabled people + start killing the ACA, they're dumber than I thought. Fwiw, my current medical expenses avg $6000/month. And that's my maintenance care. A trump FSA would pay for 8 pills of Nurtec. Fuck this shit

I just relearned the perils of skimming headlines too quickly. The alert in small print at the top of the homepage was a death announcement but it was above a photo of Cyndi Lauper & my GenX heart nearly stopped. She's fine. She's at the Rock Hall induction ceremony. But jeez.

Long Covid @sherryh87.bsky.social www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets. no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

Y'all. We may be getting 6-10" of snow from Sun-Tues! Naturally, I have to get from the snowbelt to downtown for a Dr appt very early Tues. But I'm not going to borrow stress on that right now. My street full of huskies, berners, pyrs, and sheepdogs will be so damned happy!

Head's up there is a Bluesky ban scam going around. This account just joined 40 mins ago and send me this DM. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. Bluesky would NEVER send a DM like this and make you scared. This would come through email and would have a more professional email than this. Stay safe!

when the mutuals all show up in a thread

Y'all have to hear this husky's voice. She's one of those shelter dogs that sounds like she's been kicking back shots of whiskey & smoking a pack of Marlboro reds a day. I love her. #UglyDogs www.instagram.com/reel/DQxVk-t...

Tis the time of year for turf wars of horny deer. Last night began with our yearling buck running scared, followed shortly thereafter by a 4 point buck walking briskly through the yard. Then 20 minutes later, the big guy who's run this neighborhood for years strut by and hung out for a bit.

Listen #UglyDogs we have someone in our midst whom has worked hard to sustain Jasper and themselves. I know Rues Paypal and Venmo. If you'd like to help Rue get appropriate food I can send links. We should.

Never doubt that a good person with a desire to help can make a difference in this world. ❤️

It will never not be funny to me when Kieran bursts into whatever room I'm in like he's the Kool Aid man & I immediately get a notification on my phone that he hit his step goal for the day. #UglyDogs

It was @goodboyfinley.bsky.social who inspired this Chewy purchase. Kieran would like him to know that his namesake treats are delicious!

This is just for generic Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine dimesylate) manufactured by Sun Pharmaceuticals. If yours is made by Sun, check the lot number. Brand name Vyvanse has a different manufacturer, and there are generic lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules made by other manufacturers.

The arc of history is a foot-long, but it bends towards justice.

#uglydogs Quince Mountain is signed up for the UP200. HT @nicolemeiner.bsky.social

This is tremendous reporting, i highly recommend reading the thread and following Heather. The judge says federal agents have lied under oath and one hopes she’s in her windup now to throw the goddamn book at them
