I spent 5 minutes yesterday looking for my own 2015 Toyota Highlander in the Home Depot parking lot. It turns out that all midsize grey SUV's look remarkably similar once they are fully enveloped in road salt.

A really neat little game you could make is something that showed you pictures of various SUVs and vans from different angles and with different dark colors, etc., and asked you to identify them. Being able to quickly tell the difference between a Denali, Expedition, Wagoneer, Tahoe is important rn

every single week they're throwing this guy a special oval office love-in that appears to be the presidential equivalent of letting your dog scarf an entire big mac and fries before that last trip to the vet

Pirro: "Mr President, there is in this room a group of people who love you, who believe in you, and who are so proud to be in this Oval Office and to be part of this amazing day because you have changed the course of America."

A 12-foot statue of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein frolicking and holding hands appeared on the National Mall in Washington, DC on Tuesday, September 23. A plaque under the statue states that it has been erected “In Honor of Friendship Month."

This is Igor, but you may know him better as "a sentient middle finger wrapped in a cloud of fur." He went viral last month when his rescue posted a brutally honest adoption bio about him. And it worked! He found a perfect (and very brave) forever family. 14/10 congratulations little guy

a black and white dog sits on a throne of gray pillows and glares at the camera. his black ears have what would otherwise be cute floppy tips, but we fear they’re mostly just judgemental.an adoption portrait of Igor with his forever family. the two humans are smiling, the second dog looks unamused, and Igor is sizing up his new sibling and possibly their willingness to join his schemes.a screenshot of the first half of Igor’s brutally honest adoption bio from Renegade Paws Rescue, describing him as “a cursed Victorian child masquerading as a 10lb stuffed animal” and a “sentient middle finger wrapped in a cloud of fur.” It says he “materializes in doorways and stares at corners,” “knows exactly what you did,” and “wants your ex-boyfriend’s head on a platter.”a screenshot of the second half of Igor’s brutally honest adoption bio from Renegade Paws Rescue, explaining that he will only be “satisfied when he’s cursed the bloodline of your enemies.” they say he “is not a good boy, Igor is an experience” and invites brave adopters to “apply to enter into a legally binding relationship with a fluff-coated poltergeist.”

I've been looking for a Least Bittern for months, and last weekend I was treated to see one flying around. Last year I saw one for the first time that year on July 5th. This year, it was again July 5th for my first Least Bittern of the year. It's a lucky Least Bittern day 🍀

You're looking at three golden tortoise beetles (Charidotella sexpunctata). They're native to the Americas, generally the east coast of North America all the way down to Argentina. The gold coloration is structural, semi-reflective layers in the cuticle selectively reflect wavelengths of light.

"While tantalizingly intelligible, there is sadly no way to know what 'en penischock' translates to. I do not speak Swedish. No one does. Similarly, there is no way to know what the story is referring to further down where it says that 'Robinsons penis hängd ute.'" defector.com/hurdler-wins...

This is Walter. He was brought to his human's office for take your dog to work day. Does not remember when he expressed any desire to labor. 13/10

an enormous brown bloodhound sits at the short dividing wall between two cubicles. the one on the left has a few things pinned to a bulletin board, but the one on the right is sterile and empty. the dog’s face is one long drip of skin, framed by floppy ears that probably can, in fact, be tied in a bow.walter the bloodhound has moved to another office, this one with a door and a desk. he’s sitting on the gray carpet, by gray walls and a gray chair, and behind a gray baby gate. he knows he isn’t great with colors, but man this is bleak.a closeup of walter’s melting face as he grapples with the monotony of corporate life. his eyes are a little red, and his attitude can be described as nonplussed at best.
