You win some, and if you're good enough, you learn some. Failure is refusing to learn. I'm pretty eclectic in what I enjoy and share. I'm a user experience researcher, a kahu to our ferrets, a fan of the Tampa Bay Lightning, among other things. (she/her)
We're supposed to believe Cheaty McPutter shot a 70 and won TWO championships today??! 😂😂😂 In his "honor," here's CADDYSHACK starring Donald Trump.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoTrump: “The Winning Shot in the Bedminster Club Championship! Thank you very much to all of those who participated. I won with a 70, & am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I’m given very little time to practice, bc I’m focused on many other things. It’s called TALENT, and I have it”
As a natural redhead (admittedly, with more and more white as I become a "frosted" ginger with the inevitable march of time), this article wryly amuses me. Thanks for catching on, kids. For the moment anyway. 😏 www.allure.com/story/sadie-...

Between this and all the Red Wolf litters this summer, I'm feeling a little more optimistic that all is not lost.
The News & Observer@newsobserver.com · 4d agoBiologists discovered a colony of breeding Indiana bats in North Carolina for the first time in over 10 years.
This is a thing of beauty. Read the alt text for how extra this really is.
Taco the Cat@tacothecat.bsky.social · 5d agoWhen your Friday all of a sudden has meaning again. 😋 There is also an old fashion sitting n the background.
The Trump administration has spent the last year systematically slashing and reassigning staff responsible for detecting and disrupting foreign disinformation operations in U.S. elections. bit.ly/4pmBCJb
Trump Administration Cuts Make Elections More Vulnerable to Foreign Influence and Disinformation
The depletion of staff and resources at various agencies leaves the government underprepared to respond to attempts to influence elections by China, Russia, and others.

wedge salads are probably not the wise choice tbh

Just saw a headline promising how to stop chipmunks from digging in planters "once and for all." 1) If I have chipmunks hanging out where I can watch, I'll give them their little dig boxes to keep them coming back. 2) I'll put plants they like in them! 3) I'm putting in cameras to enjoy their fun.
I've loved Firefox's widgets for the World Cup, but this one, which has the cartoon red panda dribbling the ball on its nose while confetti rains down on open, is the best yet!
CAPE VERDE’S LEGEND KEEPS GROWING 🇨🇻 The Blue Sharks held both 2026 World Cup finalists level after 90 minutes, giving Spain and Argentina arguably their toughest tests of the tournament 👏
Cabo Verde is going to have a heck of a story to tell if this is an Argentina / Spain final. 0-0 vs Spain 2-3 (OT) vs Argentina
This brings me joy! Loved Pertwee's Doctor!

@omegalvlthreat.bsky.social Exactly right that this is not the time for indulging what is really a trivial thought experiment given the context. This devil needs no advocacy. If you didn't see it, from the comments on the original post, this was an excellent point.
Rob Pollard@robpollard45.bsky.social · 4w agoLander is very good at this, so doesn't really need my help, but as he will keep getting asked "questions", I recommend he bring up the deaths of hundreds of journalists. "Dana, you're a journalist right? Do you think Israel has "tried" to not kill all these journalist? Or it's just bad luck?
My Tampa folks, check this place out. If you enjoy wine, the vibes are excellent, and the owners can match your mood and taste with an impressive selection. 🍷
They were baked in one of the hottest summer days D.C. has experienced in a long time, and now, they're being evacuated because of a thunderstorm approaching the National Mall and scrambling to find shelter. It's as though the writers did way too much cocaine during this script meeting.
I’ve lived in D.C. for nearly 20 years, and I have never seen this kind of Lord of the Flies panic on the National Mall. (video credit: MikeCarterTV)
THIS is what we remember. Cape Verde, take a bow
CJ Fogler@cjzero.bsky.social · last mo.Golazo from Sidny Lopes Cabral, level again
Absolutely insane that Cape Verde — a country of 500,000 — played Spain, Uruguay and Argentina…and lost to none of them in regulation. Easily one of the greatest performances in World Cup history.
Lightning skating coach Barb Underhill is telling players the story of Brayden Point, whose changes in posture & stride made him one of the quickest skaters in the league and helped him reach the NHL. She’s showing clips of his skating growth from his dev camp to now. #GoBolts
OK, look... Paul being traded isn't fun, but this is downright cruel. Don't do this, JBB. Pay the man his worth.
Benjamin Pierce@boltsben.bsky.social · last mo.No updates on a Nikita Kucherov extension with him being eligible for one today, but GM Julien BriseBois made it very clear that the team's intention is to circle back. They want to extend the #GoBolts forward. "We would like Nikita to stay here, he would like to stay here."
This is Porter. He's had a long day. Needs a pup cup on the rocks. And make it a double. 13/10 (TT: drunkengolden)
I cannot believe that Germany was eliminated by a team the US men's team beat so readily. Paraguay just needed to warm up or something? ⚽ Wow!
Most people when they wanna collect 'em all collect Pokémon. When Florida wants to collect 'em all it's dirty players.
I agree with this. All these people outside our country saying we're not doing enough need to keep their thoughts to themselves, especially when they live in situations just as bad as ours, if not worse. Our resistance is working as good as it can. If you disagree, you aren't paying attention.
