🚨 PECO STRIKE ENDS 🚨 After three days on the picket lines, PA’s IBEW 614 have declared victory in their historic strike against PECO. Members still need to ratify the new contract but the union is hailing it as a big win for wages, pensions, benefits, and more. Read their statement below:

A Green Heron goes into maximum neck mode to grab a tadpole and then resets into minimum neck mode after the snack was acquired.

I saw a freaking mole crossing the road this morning

I know a lot about Belgium for reasons I will not be sharing at this time

you know who

I wonder if a single western outlet will talk about that child-sized coffin. All I'm seeing is wall-to-wall "security and state control" as if Iranians don't experience genuine grief. It was his 1-year-old granddaughter, Zahra.

On his second birthday, his first time really swimming (before getting stung by a wasp :-/)

It is Stevie's 15th birthday! I used to be able to pick him up 🥲

I saw this right after a post about the celebrity wedding and thought "that must be MSG. Hechicero and Kemalito were at the wedding"

🚨 PHILLY STRIKE ALERT 🚨 As of 12:01pm, 1600 IBEW Local 614 PECO workers are on strike—the first in the utility company’s 145-year history. “PECO's lack of seriousness over six months of bargaining has forced us to this point. We are officially on strike. We strike strong, and we strike to win.”

There are suddenly a bunch of goldfinches going ham in my backyard

What do u all think of our "happy birthday America" exhibit?

Flowers from my yard and a skunk bone

It's always nice to find yourself reflected in a collection...

Big win today for a society that employs “child genitals inspectors”, a society that builds space and demand for them I guess. Congrats to them

One time I asked my dad what shrimp tastes like, and he looked real thoughtful before answering. He described a sandwich made of wonder bread, iceberg lettuce, and ketchup

Brittany truly the last holdout of the Celts

Am I wrong that you'd probably be offered the same amount today?

Big dust-up in my office this week about a "no food in the processing space" sign being too graphic and off-putting. Today this sign has taken its place. I find this much more offensive than a hi-res image of a mouse

They blooming!

Bee I found in my hair today. This happens routinely #DryadLife

is there a gas leak on this fucking website, what is happening

Summer Solstice Sunset. I think the fact that Glastonbury Tor was so busy for sunrise and it has been very hot today it was relatively quiet up there for sunset tonight. Now it isn't often I do both sunrise and sunset especially at this time of year so I might have to miss sunrise tomorrow 😂

More importantly, merry solstice. Bless this mess

I went to a very beautiful wedding yesterday but it was in Connectic*t which means I was there for 24 hours. And now I hate C*nnecticut more than ever

On my drive up to Burlington I was thinking about the population centers of Vermont. I made some guesses about ranks, mostly based on my experiences as a child in the 90s and vibes. I wasn't too far off but on the first pass I foolishly forgot Rutland

Timeline cleanse... youtu.be/BNKDXs5P08Q?...

"Political alignment of public urination" discourse (pisscourse? Sorry MF) reminded me of this. The piss bush of liberty. Thank you Molly 🫡

I think they should leave the mound alone. Let them keep their carpentry shop! We don't need to know what goes on in the mound

Also seeing the word "transition" abused lately e.g. "so-and-so transitioned out of her position as [fake admin job] pursue a new professional opportunity." You mean her ass quit!!!

The blizzard appears to be keeping clear of my town for now? Not much snow but it is very windy. I refilled the bird feeder and put out new suet, it's the least I can do

Recent Stevie, in better weather
