Meatball, I need to you get out of my spot so I can work*. *watch @brainmage.bsky.social on Twitch

Me two weeks ago in multiple emails: you all need to send your IP info to Host to be added to the allow list to access Host. CFO who never responded: I can't access Host????

Tonight in new to me bugs: a 3” long cockroach! It was outside so I was like whatever. Looked like a gigantic wood roach.

Husband taking the dog out: Let's test the juicy air, bud!

Capital Weather@capitalweather.com · 20h ago

Flood watch much of area late tonight through Wednesday morning, including commute. A setup kind of like we saw Sunday. Very juicy air mass moving in among other factors. Could drop a few inches in short order, or flop. More on uncertainties: www.capitalweather.com/flood-watch-...

Mama pseudoscorpion & her cute baby high in the mountains of Montana. Mama is half the size of a grain of rice. These harmless micro arachnids have no stinger, but can deliver venom to prey via their pincers. Also, they can walk backward. Also, you probably have them in your house. #BugSky 🐙🌿

So after picking multiple bags of dog shit out of a community mosquito trap again, I got some nylon mesh and covered the top. Y’all. I am being tested.

I have told the officials multiple times over multiple years that I no longer wanted to be involved in this longitudinal study (because surprise, surprise, the people involved were racist with it!) and they will not fucking leave me alone.

Horrible babies

Because I am TERRIBLE at timing, I'm selling my boxed #Transformers Predaking mere DAYS after everyone is all knackered from #TFN! Boxed, complete (haven't even applied stickers!). Selling Due To Broke. Also, enjoy the description. I am once again Back On My Bullshit www.ebay.co.uk/itm/11734011...

The training narrator for all this training I have to do is Australian and rather than saying "Click on" a website element, she says "Sit on" which to my ears is a very different activity.

How is babby formed? How do shrimp get gregnant?

FLOOFY FLEDGLING ALERT! American Robin edition. The eyebrow tufts are too much! 🥹 #birds 🌿

Did you know that not giving an onion-filled meal to pitbulls named Meatball is an act of cruelty to dogs?

Oregon: do you need chickens?

The Fiber Farm (Jen)@jjco.bsky.social · 2d ago

A local farm friend with amazing lines near me had a customer back out of a huge egg order so you know what that means: IMPULSE HATCHING! Watch this page for chicks hatching around 8-20! I’ll only keep a few so if you are in Portland I’ll have chicks!

hello if you would like a book that's about a last minute trade at the deadline, a disastrous press conference, and also a lot of jabs at certain ex-orioles (not adley, never adley)... here ya go

KD Casey — Read Breakout Year Today!@kdcaseywrites.bsky.social · 11mo ago

"But as in any KD Casey book, the third party in the relationship is ‘baseball’, which here acts as a hard to please lover." I was trying to think of a good summary of this book, but a pal did it for me. Breakout Year, an mm sports romance, is out in the world! www.kdcaseywrites.com/breakout-year

My loom has finally arrived! But I have to finish my RTV quilting before I can start fucking with it.

Yay, $3000 in car repairs!

Another downpour. Glad to get rain but once again wishing it was lighter and longer. These heavy bursts don't soak in. They just run off. :( *unless you've got structural things that help slow down stormwater movement like bio swales.

I have updated the Little Free Pantry wish list with some stuff, figured I could pack some pencil cases with all the things, plus more granola bars and cheddar cheese goldfish. Other food items are not very popular I have found. Also: glue, or glue stick? www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

Check out my list on Amazon

School starts here on the 24th, And I don't have kids in the school system so I don't know what they need. What should I stock the little free pantry with for the elementary and middle school and high school kids who walk by either to school or the bus stop?

Any of my UK folks looking to do a bit of gardening for a good cause?

Kade Peregrine@kadeperegrine.bsky.social · 2d ago

Anyone in Norwich UK whose handle I might recognise wanna do a little gardening? My struggle is I'm one guy with an energy limiting condition, but if a bunch of people did a tiny bit like waved a strimmer around for 10 minutes or pulled a dozen weeds, we could get it fixed quick.

In a situation where I changed a bunch of variables at the same time and now I don’t know which one worked.

The frame loom I ordered is still in USPS hell in california somewhere so now I'm watching videos about how to train my dogs to pull a cart.

Gauge tried three different browsers to sign up to take my car into the shop and none of them will complete the appointment or give me a reason why it’s hanging. So I guess I’m just dropping it off and saying fix it when you get a chance.

This is going around tumblr now and someone's called it an Onion article in the notes (it's clearly sourced to the Daily Tism) and I can't decide if it's just because it's that good or because the tumblr user thinks there's only one satirical publication in the world.

The Daily Tism@thedailytism.com · 2w ago

An autistic man with a special interest in the Harry Potter series has made the decision to value the lives and dignity of his trans friends more than a book about a wizard who grows up to be a cop, sources have reported.

The best place to thrift in Holland used to be called "Bibles for Mexico" which raised money to send bibles to those heathen Catholics. Yeeeeeeaaaah. They definitely got the good shit through.

PJ Harvey Dent@bsakat.bsky.social · 3d ago

And, yeah, a place called The Wooden Shoe Antique Mall in deeply conservative, rabidly Dutch Christian Reformed Church western Michigan, has exactly the vibes you think it does.

The rain is so warm it feels like hurricane rains. Most summer thunderstorms are still kinda chilly but this very much is not.

Why is this reminding me of the guy I saw leaving my subdivision the other day on a dayglo orange motorized unicycle?

Sara Gibbs@sararoseg.bsky.social · 3d ago

For those of you who don’t know, Chapter Two, landing tomorrow, is titled An Army of Bums. What could that mean? Is it a metaphor? No. No it is not. We are also so sorry for the lack of umlaut I don’t know what we were thinking please don’t cancel us.

Glad we took the dogs out when we did because it’s absolutely bucketing outside and has been for a bit. We need rain but this is so heavy it’s just going to bounce off. :/
