There have been so. many. fox sightings the last few days. I live right in the city!
Fox and babies came to my porch again last night. The mama has never hung out for this long before.
Stitch hopes your birthday is full of bananas!
It is ✨🎉my birthday 🎉✨ and for my birthday, as is my bluesky tradition, all I want is for people to quote this post with a photo of your pet(s) being really silly, weird little guys, to make all our days better ✨🫶
In June 2024 I brought these sweet peas home from the shelter as “permanent fosters” because they were 10.5 and the shelter didn’t think anyone would want to adopt senior buns. They wanted them to have a home to live out their days in. I figured we might have them for a few months, maybe a year.
Everything is terrible, but the panda cam was playing at the dentist today, so that’s something.
I don’t know who needs to hear this (yes I do — people who can’t stand mint toothpaste), but this tastes *exactly* like a creamsicle. Best toothpaste I’ve ever tasted and it’s not even close.
Not that this is what’s important, but, like, they didn’t even get the lower grocery prices they thought they were voting for. (BUT HOLY FUCK WAS IT OBVIOUS ALL ALONG THAT THEY WOULDN’T.)
Saw U2 at the Sphere last February. Weird Al was sitting right in front of us.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie Please Quote this with your most minor celebrity interaction
I assume “are you trying to get it done this year or next?” isn’t one of the most important questions when scheduling surgery in places that aren’t the US?
I know I shouldn’t be surprised, but WHAT??? The subtitle says the Dems were trying harder to get workers paid, but somehow that translates to “Dems block worker pay bill”???
I need the shutdown to end so I can sign up for the Do Not Call list. And also for a bunch of other reasons, but it’s particularly silly that a WEBSITE has apparently been furloughed.
I could easily part with at least 80% of my belongings if I were moving in a month or two, but two things I know I’d keep are my I ❤️ Lunch bag and my whale bottle opener. What’s something you’d for sure keep?
Caught some of Ballet Folklorico’s performance from the backstage tour at the Long Center Community Day. Wish I’d managed my day better to have seen their full performance.
I dunno, just kinda feels worth reminding people about.
Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally: "Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."
Something I’ve been looking forward to for a couple months that’s finally here is that I’m taking a French pastry class today. We’re going to make my favorite pastry, and I’m wearing my new hat for the occasion.
He’s ruined “thank you for your attention to this matter” forever. It’s the red hat of mundane communications. I don’t know how to end boring emails anymore.
The fox came by my porch last night and brought her babies! (Or did the babies come by and bring their mom?)
We didn’t get Pope Pierbattista Pizzaballa, but we got Pope Deep Dish Pizzaballa.
On World Penguin Day, here’s a video I took in Chile in November. They’re so blissfully unaware of how ill-suited they are to life on land.
This was a nice distraction for a few hours. I’ll admit I cried a little after I finished and the real world came flooding back.
On a lighter note, the neighborhood fox is back. (It’s actually more than one, but unless we’re looking at/referring to more than one at once, each is “the fox.”)
I think we can all agree the White Lotus killer is obviously Gaitok’s smile.
May I offer pictures of the sloth and porcupine I saw today?
