Today sucks in every dimension, so I made fried apples with extra cinnamon.

@martian-observer.art This made me smile, so I'm sharing it. Alt txt. Some variety of gull standing on a concrete wall with a sandwich cookie in its mouth. The treat looks like a vanilla cookie with a red jam filling.

After the assassination of Melissa Hortman it’s not hard to understand why a woman in Minnesota would be afraid of a man in a mask who says he’s a cop.

The image of the blood-soaked airbag next to the glove compartment overflowing with stuffed animals is going to stick with me for a very long time.

Bravest motherfuckers you've ever seen. They just saw a neighbor get murdered and still out there. Maybe let's see some local officials with the power to arrest show as much backbone as these voters PAYING YOUR FUCKING SALARY

The son has gone back to work after winter break. The puppy is despondent. I sacrificed a cardboard box to the puppy woodchipper in hopes he'd get tired.

I'm minding this rehomed young collie dog - his future career as yet unknown, but sheep trials were very definitely not for him. He crossed the stream at Derrynane strand in two magnificent skimming leaps yesterday.

The time has come to reveal the name of the Tyrant. She's called Sir Michael Atherton. Honestly. 'Michael' or 'Athers' for short. And the title is so there's no confusion with the ex-cricketer turned journalist of the same name.

I bought a ball pit for the cats and filled it with their toys and some homegrown catnip. Success!
