Alien: And how did you run out of water? Earthling: Machines drank it. Alien: Machines. Earthling: We had to feed machines the water. Aliens: So the machines were holding your planet hostage for water. Earthling: No, we made the thirsty machines. They worked for us. Alien: End communication.

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Cris Derksen, internationally renown Indigenous musician and composer, in a tragic vehicle accident in northern Alberta, returning from her father's funeral. A beautiful soul and musician. Such a loss.

Well. you can't say FIFA doesn't know how to Dallas properly. They came to town and immediately destroyed a beloved downtown mural painted in 1999 by a revered artist. www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comm...

Things seem to appear when you're thinking about them. Just had my first encounter with it today right after sharing a post about it.

The marmot is underway. I swapped out the blue background for this green so that I could put him in a meadow. Had a bit of a slow down yesterday when I quilted my finger, (ouch), but woke up to a nearly healed digit this morning, so yay for that!

About to get knuckle tatts that say “read more” and hope that that will be my legacy.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin — the third-richest man on the planet — is reportedly spending $57M to defeat California's proposed billionaire's tax. So he and his fellow oligarchs can't afford a wealth tax, but they'll spend a fortune buying elections? See the problem...

God help me but I made a video to talk about two things I hate

Time for an experiment! You know those cute little roadside stands with honors-system eggs or produce? Look, I know I live in "big scary Philadelphia oooh 👻" but I'm gonna try it. What's the worst that can happen? Thieves create habitat for native bees? Jokes on them! I wanted them to do that!

Hey. My eyes are up here. No. Higher. - crustaceans, probably

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES DAY 1 MAY 2026 THESE HORRID TIMES Late today The conservative 5th circuit court just blocked nationwide access to Mifepristone. The abortion pill. IT CAN NO LONGER BE PERSCRIBED & DELIVERED BY MAIL This will now bring on a SCOTUS SHOW DOWN Women Will DIE OUTRAGE !

Truer (sadder) words have never been spoken.

You have only two tasks on this hard earth: to love (to love with all of you) and not to get to the end, with all its wreckage, and find out that the voice in you that you silenced was the beautiful truth all along.

WATCH: @RepLuna calls for a vote to strip the pesticide corporations immunity provision from the farm bill… chair Mike Simpson (RH) claims the “the NO’s have it” when clearly the YAY votes were louder… Luna asks for a recorded vote… Simpson postpones it… Wildly corrupt stuff

These ribs took all day. 😁

Trust me, disabled people feel this hostility acutely.

Everyone activate emergency discourse topics: mine is that I think the two guys from ABBA have definitely seen each other naked

I love surrealist elementary school art so much

Every use of the word "psychotic" to describe a fascist, is basically shorthand for "I'm afraid to admit that fascism enables a person to be incredibly violent without any need whatsoever for them to have a personality disorder"

The only fish that I know of that has any rhythm is the Bass 😉

This is a five-alarm fire and should be covered as such by the media.
