Y’all I have some really good news for you 🪲

My uncle thought he was St. Jerome.

Since Mr. Martin isn't going to do it, I am writing the final book of Game of Thrones. I just started wrapping up the last chapter, in which Jon Snow finally wins ownership of the chocolate factory.

LOOK AT THESE DUDES. My #FeederWatch highlight of the weekend? Heck it might be the highlight of the whole dang season! #birds

Cuteness Update #Cats #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky #BlackCats

I have a hard telling the Tufted Titmice apart, but I can recognize this one. This bird has a bit of fluff on the left wing. This feather has been like this since last Fall. It'll eventually molt away but for now it's fun to tell when this particular little one is around.

Hell yeah that’s the stuff

Blue was the first pet I adopted— she’s only a few months older than the rest, but she’s definitely atop a hierarchy they’ve all developed My larger cat and my substantially larger dog never, ever push Blue out of the way. If she claims the best cuddle spots, we *all* adjust

Movie theater full of chimps booing a “No genitals were mauled in the making of this film” disclaimer

I had to check, once I heard news about investigations into Walz & Frey. Yes, there was a previous Governor of Minnesota/Mayor of Minneapolis pair in office at the same time who each had four-letter last names. Yes, both were also born outside of MN. Yes, the governor had also served in Congress.

These are the prettiest little birds. I first saw them at the feeder I put up outside Gran’s window at the nursing home.

All chimps know is maul genitals, eat hot chip & lie

Great, my dearest friends are inundating me with AI slop just to needle me, and my mom just sent me a video of some TikTok grifter with her tits out who’s supposedly telling us all the important information we need to know about the current state of politics.

Hello please enjoy this nice fluffy empress moth drawing, & some WIPs for folks who like that kinda thing. No particular reason, other than moths are the best. Thank u, that is all.

More AI crap is showing up in my tight-knit, 12 year old circle of online friends. Anti-Trump memes dumped into chat, personal photos modified with AI, using AI “assistants” for things they’re perfectly capable of doing themselves.

here’s a morning update ❤️‍🔥 we’ve raised $1,162 for this 6th worker & their family that we are working with. we are hoping to raise $1,400 for them — just as we all came together to do for 5 families earlier this week! that means we’ve got just $238 to meet that goal! can we get there today? ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

went to my first non-greek wake in a while and i was looking all over like "where the hell did they put the body?" it turns out some people do this thing where they burn they body til it's very small instead of making the kids all look at a corpse

This thread was insightful!

The Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights was gutted in Trump’s mass layoffs last year, leaving half as many lawyers to investigate complaints of discrimination based on race, sex or disability in schools. Those who remain face a backlog of more than 25,000 cases.

There’s ducks at the park we use for Pokémon Go meetups, seeing them go headfirst into the water with their little duck butts in the air never gets old.

There are many tactics Republicans can & may employ to try to depress voter turnout and intimidate voters. That said, voter turnout can also be depressed by people preemptively declaring the election is rigged. It takes effort to get to the polls, it doesn't help to tell people it's not worth it.

"Sure we get all their tax money and benefit from the systems they defend ... but we just wish more of them got shot in the face." is a pretty solid synopsis of a big chunk of the country's view

Well 2026 is off to a very weird and chaotic start, so I'll just say that it would be very nice if a bunch of people bought my books and gave me money -

“I AM” Activity sounds like a really smug experimental music group

I've done the "NONE MORE [moment in time]" bit a few times now with old commercial breaks, but this...? This is the absolute real deal. The apex predator. The shit the dealer usually keeps for himself. June 28, 1992 in pure crystalline form. Handle with extreme care.

Community in Schools does do a good job, but I'm online-pilled enough that my first reaction was, "No, I think cis people have said enough by now."

Today’s Strib is very long on local occupation coverage, which is very welcome (also long on high school sports, because Strib). But in the middle of all that, there’s this, which I truly thank them for

Funny, us going out like this.

WHAT is the charge? Eating a wheel? A succulent Scandinavian wheel?
