1/ Alaskan sled dogs serving in World War I France. As WWI dragged on, two French officers worried about the supply and communication logistics on the German front. Along the Vosges, a low mountain range near the French-German border, French soldiers were dying from cold and lack of ammunition.

FYI trans Americans with a Canadian ancestor can apply for expedited processing on their applications for Canadian citizenship!

We lost Douglas Adams 25 years ago today. This has made a lot of people very sad and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Related to fucking AI forever, my ex found this at my old house recently. Texted me to ask if I wanted it, as it was mine back in the day. It runs XP and has non-subscription Word and Photoshop on it. And it has a USB port for a flash drive. Yes, I’ll be keeping it, thank you.

This gives me hope. Fuck generative AI forever.

Can confirm! It fucking rules!

Oh, but that’s better. And I was able to reuse the tape. Hyperfocus and careful removal for the win. Cuz yeah. I tried to accept a random pattern. But…

Those dogs will hunt. So to speak.

Oh my. This is spectacular. sinceyouarrived.world/taken

Got some hockey tape…

Haha! Posted that bird egg pic and didn’t even realize the day. To the mothers and to those with good mothers or good memories, happy day. To those to which this doesn’t apply, sending just as much love.

The regal retriever. Or not.

I see cardinals often. I hear them every day. But this is a first. Found it in the yard. Welcome, little one. I hope you make it.

If anyone is wondering how I can so easily quote lyrics from this in the comments, well, you see, I’m a simple man. And some time ago, my ex put all my records into digital form. Even my childhood ones. So I might still listen to this occasionally. And I am not one bit ashamed.

I excluded storybook records, etc, when I picked Mickey Mouse Disco in last post. Even if only a loose story in between the songs, like the Grasshopper Christmas Album. Anyway…Bought with my own money?

I mean…

I often dress like a rebel. But I’m a rule follower at heart.

Re: last repost. Took me 14 years. I strongly support student loan forgiveness/free college.

It took me nearly 20 years to pay off my student loans. I don't want the new generation of students to have student loans that they have to pay off. This is a minority position in the U.S. and speaks badly about this country.

Welp, I wasn’t going to bother. For a lot of reasons. But the odds were in my favor. And I have Celebration tickets. I blame @lmmotoss.bsky.social. No hotel. Don’t care. I’ll figure it out later. Regardless, rock on!

Different wig. Didn’t hurt much tonight. But still on point. ;)

this probably doesn’t even count as controversial but I think it’s hilarious that George Lucas made a movie in the late 70s from the principles of “whee hee hee woo hoo hoo spaceship” and consequently spent the rest of his life as the author of The King James Bible

Anne Hathaway, you will ALWAYS be that girl. 💙💛

So while I’m new to hockey, I suspect I’ll be taking pics like this soon enough with that squad. And then, later, I’ll send thanks to my teammates for the joy and tears and sweat and blood. But for today, it’s another sport that gets the shoutout. Why did we play? Because we’re football players!

Oh, yeah. Apparently I play hockey now. My AFAB ass got roped into a women’s league. Gender is complicated. But gods, I forgot how much fun it is to play sports with a mostly openly queer, non-cis-AMAB socialized group. No one is out to hurt anyone. Everyone is chill, even to us newbs. It’s great.

It hurt the moment I put it on. Some days it be like that. But dang, my wig game was on point today. The things we do for cosplay. Also? Little girl: Are you Luke Skywalker? Me: Yes. Girl: Did you know Star Wars is my favorite movie? Me: I do now. That’s awesome!

It’s progressive.

The first song I heard last night at hockey was the one from the club in Heated Rivalry. I doubt this was an accident. 🤣🏒🏳️‍🌈

I have to move in July. I’m going through boxes from closets, under beds, etc, trying to see if I can pare down. Came across this box. Contents as advertised. Now, toys are NOT gendered. But there were signs. 🤣🏳️‍⚧️

Can I slap the shit out of you for suggesting we throw away 1 million Black people that have been on this land since the 1700s?

I’m not sure. But John Crichton would be right in the thick of it!

Privileged enough that my vaccine was free. But I bought myself comfort plants. I’m moving soon. I’m not supposed to be accumulating things. Oops.

Gratefully paying sixth decade tax. Which is, of course, the shingles vax.

No reason except it’s pretty.

Good morning, crew!! I hope you have a beautiful day!! You are worthy and deserving of all good things!! Take care and stay hydrated, my darlings!! 🫂💕✨️🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️ #OurFlagMeansDeath #LongLiveOFMD #CrewForLife

Not at my home clinic today. So I don’t know what this is for. But I understand it so hard.

Another coral bell update just because it looks so good this year. I’m off to work. Y’all be kind to each other and yourselves, k?

Oh, heck. Days of Thunder is on TV. Speaking of movies I’ve seen more that six times… High school me would say this so, so often: Control is an illusion, you infantile egomaniac!

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, DC, Marvel, Disney, Pixar, Spielberg, Cameron, Wachowskis, or Ghibli. I mean…yesterday was April 25. This wasn’t hard at all.

If anyone wants to grab a Jeremy Creature from my shop, I can mail them off tomorrow: jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

No arguments here

Five jobs I’ve had: House painter. Wait staff. Valet (car parking type). Unofficial (and probably illegal, but no one cared back then in that type of setting) Bartender. Full time in-home childcare.

For those who celebrate…

Coral bell update. First flowers well into bloom. Others joining them!

PSA for airline tickets. Something to try, anyway. Because, yep. They did just admit to surveillance pricing. Oof. Unsurprising. But oof.

Wes wasn’t sick, you psycho. Also, sick people don’t deserve to die. This isn’t hard. Cheers from Wes to those of you who understand that. Sigh.
