You’re on the surface of the moon. Earth slowly rises from the star-filled horizon. All the while, David Byrne’s rich, sonorous voice is singing “Heaven.”

This is the opening number of the Who Is The Sky tour, and is easily one of the most beautiful performances I’ve ever witnessed. #DavidByrne

Punny John is my favorite.

Sometimes, I get to witness folks finding out everything their public library can do for them. Their level of astonishment and joy is magical. And then I remember that yes—what public libraries do is actually incredible. #librarian #libraries #intellectualfreedom #everydaymagic

Dean: The president is unhinged

Johnson: A lot of folks on your side are too. I don’t control him

Dean: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals.

Johnson: I didn’t see it.

Dean: Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing.

An antique clock inadvertently looks like it has a frowning face on it.

When I came upon this sad little fellow at the Milwaukee Art Museum, I heard John Flansburgh sing “TIME…..IS MARCHING ON. AND TIME…IS STILL MARCHING ON.” @tmbg.bsky.social

Guaranteed moneymaking idea: A daily “get ready with me” video, but it’s just the exact same 5-minute hair and makeup routine as I listen to Slayer.

I think we might all benefit from letting our medullas talk more.

A sunflower in dramatic lighting almost looks unreal. So imposing and fuzzy.

Another way to injure yourself is reading this funny, but horrifyingly accurate, list. It hit me hard in my bad knee.

Stretching overhead,
I hurt myself well.
My muscles confidently say:
Aging is hell.

(A real story from the last 24 hours! How does one injure their shoulder while sitting and stretching normally? Ugh.)

I actually lol’d. I feel so much better that Hank Green didn’t effin’ know either.

Byeeeeeeeeee

I was headed off to do a cardio workout when I slipped and fell down the stairs. Apparently, I will do ANYTHING to get out of exercising.

Sick AI burn!

Is there anything better than UW-Madison’s Union Terrace on a 68-degree evening at sunset?

What a joy to be in one of my favorite places on such a beautiful night.

Bribery is nothing to get all Ruffled up about.

I’ll show myself out.

All he needs is a tiny gun on each wing and he’s the star of an avian action movie. Die Card?

*through a dissolving throat* Worth it.

Florida reports 21 cases of E.coli infections linked to raw milk The Florida Department of Health said on Monday that there have been 21 cases of Campylobacter and E. coli infections linked to drinking raw milk in the state, including six children under 10.

We poke fun at RFK Jr.’s nonsense — intimate lamprey encounters, aluminum conspiracies, raw milk evangelism — but it’s not just absurd.

His ideas cause real harm — especially to people with the least protection from bad policy. 🧵

Phone: “My god, the power. The raw, unmitigated POWER!”

We do what we have to do to keep the ancient ones at bay.

The only way I know how.

How is it possible for my cat to be simultaneously the biggest-bravest and the tiny-babiest?

Don’t call me names, Pinterest.

Don’t pass up the Gouda Experience. It’s so edam good.

Image is a screenshot post from the account Cheerful Nihilism on Instagram. It is four photo frames in which a singer on stage says to a crowd “How are you tonight? Having a good time? Ready to party? Have fun? Well that was the last guys. Wrong fucking band. We’re here to have a bad time.” The final photo says “synthesizer playing” in parentheses.

Nobody’s gonna enjoy this, least of all us.

Personally, I’m going for the flail studs.

Loving this slow-jammy version of Sax Rohmer! Slay, indeed.

Just yesterday, I was wondering which places to donate to for aid in Gaza. Thank you!
