Miss Grand USA 2026, Victoria Oluwakotanmi, slays in this gorgeous pink dress but ... wait for it ...
I like that I know exactly how it will dance when it pulls its lumbering form out of the ground it’s trapped beneath.

Diprotodon, the proto-wombat, was the size of an SUV. They lived alongside anatomically modern humans in Australia for about 10,000 years until going extinct about 25-40,000 years ago. If they had proportionally sized cubic poop, it would be the size of a cinderblock, I think?

I love camp and I’m sad it’s been so reviled for so long that that hatred has spread to everything genuine and earnest.
bringing this back around
That time someone dumped a toy house on the cemetery wall and, when I crouched a bit, some ✨ Hollywood Magic ✨ occurred.
Every so often I remember that I’m basically a poorly-written deus ex machina in all my friends’ lives. I’m friends with a couple who are only legally married because I agreed to forge a signature on their marriage license after their officiant left the state.

I’m trying SO HARD not to comment on this woman’s plastic surgery but I don’t think I’m this strong.
“If you don’t like public executions just don’t watch it” says the crowd trying to ban drag shows and books
Ok this is the favorite commission for day 2. The prompt was "ghost rider as a mail carrier"
When you start carving a headstone but have a serious attack of the curlicues.. Todays theme for #31DaysofGraves is Lettering and I'm sure there's a letter in there somewhere.
"AI, illustrate how game with woman became seen by people with eyes?"
Check out this moron discovering what PR and marketing are
Dressmaker is a masterpiece.
Finally developed a theory of mind but only for special little birthday robot boy
Anthropic banning “abusive or cruel behavior” toward Claude in its new usage policies is proof to me that tech companies are going to moderate violence against AI before they ever moderate violence against women and minorities
Honestly this is exactly how I act when I get the hiccups too. Stupid human body engineering design flaw! They hurt!
Yall wanna see a puppy with hiccups getting mad
