On this day in 2019, I witnessed one of the coolest things ever in Patagonia. This lenticular cloud lit-up by a setting sun over Perito Moreno Glacier in Argentina.

This is Bruschi. He's 14 and has flagged down this ice cream truck every week for the past decade. Firmly believes a weekly cone is the secret to a long, happy life. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

Monday's sunrise blossoms with pink light. This morning in Chicago.

This is Hugo. He is facing off in an epic battle against his toy ball. Just waiting for his opponent to make the first move. 12/10

A Happy Accident as I was shifting my composition during today's Chicago sunrise.

Plane crashes, measles, and expensive eggs. You’re doin’ great, sugar.

This is Brooks. He found a giant stick on his walk and stubbornly carried it all the way home. 14/10

Horns herald the arrival of the hip-hop inspired big band at the Tiny Desk.

a big mastiff looks at the camera from his backseat car hammock. his exceptionally wrinkly face is brown with dark brownish accents around his ears, eyes, and snout. his nose and mouth are dripping with white whipped cream, and there’s a smear of slobber on the window frame below his jowls too.

This is Meech. He maintains that one pup cup is not enough. He needs a pup bucket, or perhaps a pup kiddie pool. 14/10

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

Sunrise Spectacular. Revisiting Friday’s start in Chicago.

a reddish golden retriever sits and looks up at the camera with inquisitive eyebrows and ears that look softer than velvet. he’s holding a single red rose in his mouth that ever so slightly pushes his lip up on each side.

This is Wesley. He wants to know if you will accept this rose. Because he grabbed it thinking it was a stick, and now doesn't want it anymore. 12/10

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community.

No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality.

Hate has no home here.

This morning's black & white panorama start in Chicago. Check out that cloud cover.

a bronze plaque of a man in armor who looks down at a dog sitting at his feet. the man pets the dog with his left hand. the entire dog and a little bit of the plaque surrounding him is shiny and much brighter than the rest of the plaque from hundreds of years of people petting him.

This plaque in Prague has been rubbed to a shiny gold because for centuries, passersby have touched the dog for good luck, and also to reassure him that he's a very good boy. 14/10

a slightly damp golden retriever puppy leaps toward the camera with his front paws right at the bottom of the frame. his ears are flapping out away from his head a bit, and he has the sweetest look in his eyes. his tiny razor-sharp teeth are pristine, and his tongue is a little wrinkled like it doesn’t fully fit in his face yet.

This is Drake. He is very happy to see you. Saw you about five minutes ago, but is thrilled it's happening again. 12/10

If you’re not part of the resistance, you’re part of the problem. And stay out of the way of the people that actually care about this country and the human beings in it.

So how’s it going so far?
