SOMEBODY GET HUMPY THE SALMON TO ROGERS CENTER STAT!!!

Taking off my earrings to fight. So does my opponent. Knowing whoever wins the fight will receive both sets of earrings. The stakes have never been higher

They taught a squirrel to waterski and you’re questioning the existence of angels

Overheard while waiting for the bus.
Guy 1: It's business time!
Guy 2: It's only 8 o'clock.
Guy 1: It is? How do you know!?

You can’t script it. The Mariners are willed to victory by Humpy the fish finally winning his first race in the middle of the 15th inning. The crowd chants “Humpy Humpy” as the trident crosses off the ALDS win.

Why is Mariners first baseman Josh Naylor wearing my grandmother's earrings?

Me: *thinking to myself after someone wrongs me* You made an inconsequential and powerless enemy today my friend

🤯🤯🤯 The drama of the final live task of series 6 New Zealand Taskmaster! It was horse or laminator all over again!

What I've learned after hanging out with people from India for 15+ years is that offering ice to go in any drink other than whiskey is deeply unnecessary and will cause some of them to worry about my health.

I got my fall vaccine boosters AND the pharmacy gave me a bag of popcorn! 💉💉🍿

I assumed it was referring to left-handed people. You are clearly the more diligent and dedicated patriot. I'm glad you're looking out for us! Phew!

In 1923, Warren Harding became the first president to visit Alaska, which had been purchased during the Andrew Johnson administration in 1867.

Billy Porter and more specifically his fantabulous outfit is the best part of Amazon's 2021 version of Cinderella.

FYI, your parent's first cousin is your first cousin once removed. The child of your first cousin once removed is your second cousin.
(I had to figure this out over the weekend, so I may as well share.)

Screenshots of two unrelated accounts I follow both posting about how they will be neglecting their responsibilities to play the same video game.

I think something happened in Video Game World today. 🤔 @chriswarcraft.bsky.social @adamtots.bsky.social

Today I unlocked a Neopets avatar that I spent 20 years trying for!! What else is possible today!?!?!?!!

Two years ago today, my spouse and I were watching India launch a rocket to the moon. During one of the extended pauses, I learned of Mr. Buffett's death. Today, I remember my favorite poet and storyteller by getting high and watching an old concert.

Hey! I get to eat pizza again tomorrow!

Orville Peck did a song and a guest voice for an episode of Kiff, one of my current favorite cartoons. I, therefore, choose to believe that he also loves squirrels and quality cartoons as I do.

Met a person today at a regular hobby club I attend who cheerfully told me all about their pet pigeons and all their incest. The father pigeon and adult daughter pigeons happily breed as they please. No way to neuter a bird, so just take the resulting eggs away and let them do whatever. 🤷🏻 🐦🐦🐦🐦🥚

Photo of small boulders gathered on wood chips in my side yard because I am lucky in my neighbors.

Screenshot from Shrek: Donkey's first visit to Shrek's swamp. Donkey is admiring a boulder. The closed captioning reads "I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder."

I have the best neighbors. They dug up some great rocks from their backyard and gave them all to me! I am going to place them ever so strategically around my property! 🪨🪨🪨

A black cat mid-step on a city sidewalk. A photo cannot capture the constant stream of chatter from this friendly critter who always runs to greet me on the sidewalk and give me all the news of what's happened since we last saw each other.

Got to say hi to Chatty again this morning. Also saw a family of raccoons.

I impressed a neighbor of yours with how close I'm occasionally able to come to these dopey things with their Lego wheels. (The Seattle area is, unfortunately, lousy with the things.)

Picard civics tip: If there is one truth, one constant that history shows us over and over, it is that resistance is never futile.

W. Harding was the first active member of the Senate to be elected president. After the presidential election and a month-long vacation to Texas for poker and golf with friends and then a cruise to Panama & back), he returned to his Senatorial duties for a couple of months before his new job started
