Good morning. Alice is still in bed. Wish I was.

Shikishi-no-mado (Windows of Colored Paper) located in the Unryu-in Temple in Kyoto, Japan.

Fart runes, or fretrúnir, are for when you want to “afflict your [enemy’s] belly with great shitting and shooting pains and ... very great farting. May your bones split asunder, may your guts burst, may your farting never stop, neither day nor night”

We visited an open house in Harlem tonight. Gorgeous place and this is my dream bedroom. Imagine sleeping surrounded by all those books. They come with the house (if you want).

If you’re under doctor’s orders to get more snuggles in your daily life, this week’s Second Chance Pet, Adam, might be the boy for you! https://www.koin.com/am-extra/second-chance-pets-meet-adam-the-8-year-old-pup/?cid=bluesky_

Every credulous buffoon in Tech Journalism:

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

Morherfuckers, message boards (bulletin boards) predate internet email lists, and as always, please stop anthropomorphizing bloody software! None of them have ancestors. You think WinFax and Eudora got drunk at the office Christmas party and wound up with a kid named “Fax-to-eMail”? JFC..

use as much Nesquick as you want nothing matters anymore

Kirby rocks, he's literally the most powerful character in the Nintendo mythos.

Every spring tiny black ants try to invade my house. Ok. They show up in the kitchen and the bathroom directly above. Fine. Eventually I tire of the battle, add bugs to the exterminator contract and get a few years of peace. Great. Spring again, and now I have tiny black ants in my bedroom. What.

Today on the trail was an otter! But it refused to pose for pictures so instead here's an egret who was more cooperative

The bot emails are now starting "First of all, I'm not a bot!" and honestly I'm going to need Sam Altman set on fire

The Thong Song is a masterpiece, never to be skipped or played at a rational volume in my lifetime

That song starts off like a chipper dance tracks but Sisqó really just keeps layering on the emotion. By the breakdown of the chorus at the end, he's singing like he's seen the face of God in this woman's thong. You can't really explore the emotional depths of horniness like that in a short song.

The houses of Belgravia Court (c. 1892-1995) in the Old Louisville neighborhood, a fully pedestrianized residential “walking court.”

The more you love ProPublica, the more reason to not visit their site today.

I simply think that no American President and in fact no human being at all should ever have the capacity to destroy civilization and it is sheer madness that we exist in a world where this is possible even when that isn’t foremost in our minds and headlines

This circa 1930 poster by Junzo Ito for the South Manchuria Railway Company (Mantetsu) is a striking example of the modernist graphic style that defined the early Shōwa era, Japan

Total Eclipse of the Sun, 1882. Chromolithograph after a pastel drawing by astronomer, artist, and amateur entomologist Étienne Léopold Trouvelot. Learn more about his life and see a collection of his stunning astronomical art here: https://buff.ly/2ENtY5g #eclipse #solareclipse

How do we get establishment dems to understand that we’re as angry at them (or angrier) as we are at this administration

This is the so-called Standard of Ur. It’s a wooden box decorated with shell, lapis lazuli & red limestone. One side depicts peace, the other war. My photos show war & are unflinching, as we see with a man trampled by a war chariot. Its function remains unknown. 📍 Ur (Iraq) 🕰️c2500BC 🏛️BM 📷mine

I'm sure I'm not the first to say this but they need to stop remaking classic films. We don't need a million reboots, we need to be remaking movies that had great ideas but were executed poorly. Actually give them a chance to realize their potential. Leave the classics alone. Make new classics.

"I can not believe America has becom--" bitch, we have Andrew Jackson on our money. our default money. the only money the bank robot knows how to hand out.

Today on the trail I was so cranky I was nearly feral but it was a pretty day

Alice is so demanding she wore me out and I just gave her my tablet. She caught 46 fish in the fishing game before she started yelling at me to play with her again.

Flower posting from my garden. I don't remember my lilacs ever coming out this early

Living seawall in San Francisco designed to create marine habitat while reducing floods. The textured concrete tiles in marine environments support native seaweeds, shellfish and small fish, so San Francisco is now rebuilding its ageing seawall using this technique. buff.ly/6T26Ftz #ShareGoodNewsToo

Happy, I guess, but I also wish I was an archivist lawyer for vampires who himself was a vampire. Think how sleek, politic, & quiet the offices would be. All the unexpected documents, brittle with age & written in extravagant script, kept in the vaults.

A reminder that we put out a report that explains the shady ways technology companies are marketing and selling their devices to police, including how they come up with the claims of effectiveness. Everyone, especially journalists and law makers, should read this. www.eff.org/document/sel...

I think often of a New York Times photo of a little Iraqi girl tending to her parakeets in a bombed house, probably from 20 years ago now. I will think of this man and his sweet dog often now too. People just want to love what they love, care for their little beings, and instead we do this to them

Former Pfizer rep, here. I launched Zyrtec in '96. The FDA did not approve Zyrtec for Nuclear Devastation Anticipatory Disorder (NDAD), but I can tell you that some of my docs were using it off-label for that - with good results. Just double the dose.

I don’t know how to express this more clearly Every time you do a war I’m against it I’m against it in all forms I’m against from All sides I’m against the careless loss of life

I switched to the summer weight duvet today It is APRIL

The NASA flickr stream from the moon mission is pretty dope

Alice would like some attention, thank you

No engine so it was the propulsion system warning light that disappeared today, but same

The political relevance of old school punk is alive and well today. Nothing ever changes with the government. History repeats itself. They are here to keep us poor and manageable, so the rich can become richer. Violence against their own people means nothing. youtu.be/N3A8uNG3GH4?...

Yesterday on the trail was too hot. Today on the trail was a council meeting.

Ghost postcard genre. A favourite from my collection - "It Appears...". 1930s.

Rage driving the Honda Fit like the mom from Ponyo (kidding, I’m still safe unlike this other Fit that was definitely Ponyo-maxxing)

"Moon's haunted"

Oh ffs, the pocket square thing wasn't a joke?

We deserve it #axolotl #art
