BTS as video game horses: Yoongi: Skryim Does not give a single fuck. Show this horse a mountain of sheer cliffs and they will chug right up it without complaint. Sometimes not where you expect and smaller than others, but maintains incredible work ethic, durability, and ubiquitousness

In 1657, Jin Shengtan 金聖嘆 broke off from his commentary on 'The Romance of the Western Chamber' to list "33 Nice Things" 不亦快哉三十三則. It's one of the most likable things I know of in any language. I translated it to cheer myself up a while ago, if anyone could use it. www.burninghou.se/p/whats-good

Repeat PSA: Don't use glue traps/fly paper! This Mexican free-tailed bat got lucky but many don't get saved. Please let people know that glue traps of any kind are inhumane and dangerous. 🦇 #bats #arizona #wildanimals

The only place to get my art these days, plus many other cool artists!

Happy Gävlebocken season! Every year since 1966, Gävle, Sweden, has erected a massive version of Scandinavia's traditional straw Yule goat. It is so attractive to vandals—particularly arsonists—that in the previous 59 years, only 17 goats have survived fully intact. Good luck in 2025, Gävlebocken!

Yessssss

Yes. Because so often the images are just CARELESS. Nonsense words, things that don't obviously connect to other things. If you're that careless about your images (some of which end up in publications!)...what else are you careless about!?

Reading letters from the Princess Liselotte of Palantine, the German sister-in-law of Louis XIV, and it's wild because she had this super informal writing style that almost sounds like modern texts Like at one point she goes "wish to god my son didn't love holding chunks of bread like a peasant"

please give me your funniest Thanksgiving medical stories and mishaps, medical professionals and others of Bluesky

Not an ER story for me, but a friend is an Orange County NC Forest Ranger, and he listens to the scanner on Thanksgiving to see how many people burn the back deck off the house with a turkey fryer. His record is ten, but he didn't like that one because it started a forest fire, and had to dispatch.

After a mandoline incident left me with a large scar on the tip of my thumb, I refused to have one in my kitchen for many years. But then cut-resistant gloves became easily available and now we have one again, along with a pile of the gloves in different sizes. The gloves are also good for grating!

I ended up in physical therapy after surgery on my elbow. The practice specialized in hand injuries. They had a board listing the most common reasons that their patients got injured. Cutting avocados was the top reason by a landslide!

I also went to Top Golf with my in-laws in the morning, and an art-teacher friend came over and taught me and my kid how to stretch canvases and I also got a layer of gesso on mine, so it makes sense that I’m exhausted even though I made everyone take shifts helping me with pies this evening.

6 dessert pies successfully made tonight, tomorrow there are 5 savory pies to make, and then we will be able to have our pie-stravaganza. I’m so tired.

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

This is going to be very popular* at all the parks’ gateway towns that rely almost entirely on tourism. *popular in the sense that I foresee this being protested out of existence by the gateway communities that in many case are, ironically, MAGA-majority. www.axios.com/2025/11/26/n...

Fun fact: I drew this like two years ago and painted the octopus purple. But I thought purple looked corny so I painted over him teal. But then I realized he was the color of Squidward Tentacles and I got mad and stopped and forgot about this piece until now.

this month, bring the good news to YOUR life that you can just stand there yelling 'AM I SUPPOSED TO DO EVERYTHING THE PEOPLE WANT ME TO?' and goat scream, at any given time

My public service announcement for today is that America’s Test Kitchen, which is infinitely better then NYTimes Cooking, has introduced a new gift link option that has no limit on how many you can share and each link lasts 30 days.

what we don’t have in turkey fryer explosion videos, we make up for with 10-pound grease ball pics.

Wearing my shirt from squidfacts.bigcartel.com for the first time today, and I would describe it as both comfortably over-sized and also the freaking softest t-shirt I’ve ever worn (plus the design is very cool). Highly recommended.

when we say we want more streets to be pedestrianized, this is what we mean

Volcano Hayli Gubbi erupted today in Ethiopia for the first time.

Weddell seal pups can be curious if you’re sitting next to them quietly. Here, we were collecting a scat sample and the little one leaned a bit closer to see what I was doing. Permit # ACA 2025-010, AMLR LARUE2025 🧪🌎🦑🦊

MezamashiTV interview (Note: there was a lot of fluff that I cut out so some scenes are choppy. There's another video further down this thread) 👩Exclusive interview with "KookMin" of BTS 🐥Everyone watching MezamashiTV, good morning! I'm Jimin of BTS. 🐰I'm Jungkook. + #Jimin #Jungkook

I like my new psychiatrist, she offered me lots of different options to try to help me feel better, recommended a specific therapist, noticed that my previous psych never actually added ADHD to my list of diagnoses and added it, and was both personable and knowledgeable.

did you know that jungkook is kind of a grammar nerd?: a thread

i love this live title bc: 1) it can be either 🐰 ?? why not 🐰 ?? why isn’t this working he meant the latter, but with the thumbnail, it feels like a bratty challenge 2) JK is a big grammar nerd. lots of ppl often forget or ignore this rule and just lump together as 안돼? but he used 안 돼? correctly

This thread is part of why I was super confused seeing how like other male groups aren't like this like I got here first and then found other groups and y'all Bangtan is so fuckin touching on each other all the time it's so damn wild

Italian American family story. My sisters brought pecan pie and we all thought it tasted odd but not bad necessarily and then it turned out they used garlic butter instead of regular and we didn’t even notice.
