Sitting in a poolside cabana with my nieces at a hotel resort in Orlando, with a spicy marg and jimmy buffet playing It doesn’t get much more Florida than this

A margarita with a chili-salt rim is held up in the foreground at a poolside cabana. On the table behind it sit sunscreen, coffee cups, a soda can, and snack bags, including one for Strawberry Shortcake fruit gummies. A child sits at left eating a snack, and a teen at right takes a photo with a phone. Beyond the cabana, a resort pool area with blue umbrellas, lounge chairs, and palm trees stretches under a partly cloudy sky.

Has anyone here ever fabricated a custom watch dial of your own design? How/where did you get that done? There are options easily found on Google, but they don't seem to do exactly what I want (raised, enameled ticks and logomarks).

Someone should invent a snack food like Uncrustables, but it has the crust still on it Call them… Crustables Better yet, just sell the outside part of the Crustables and make your own fillings It’ll be the biggest thing since sliced bread

I'm in Anmore BC (just outside of Vancouver) and tucked away behind the community center, there is a _beautiful_ old Intertype machine (a Linotype competitor) just... sitting there. Belonged to a prominent BC journalist. Be a shame if anyone were to just... take it

I've been getting into wristwatches lately — more specifically, obsessed with Casio digital watches. Especially excited for this one: the A100, a remake of their 1978 F100, the first-ever resin watch. Weirdly though, this one is metal. I love, love the Darth Vader-style buttons on the face, though!

Happy Canada Day to my friends and family to the north, from my Florida-born neice who has no idea what Canada Day is, and thought this Messenger filter was about "beautiful fall music" because of the falling leaves!

Whenever I think about the Knicks (which isn’t that often), I’m usually about 50/50 on whether or not it is a baseball team or a basketball team. I am glad their success is making a lot of people very happy though
