@attilakinali Everything in that picture is a bottle opener

A bunch of light green flowering plants (leafy spurge), surrounded by black, white, and brown goats, all very intent on eating them. There's lots of green field and scrubby trees visible in the background.

A bunch of black, white, and brown goats, standing in tall grass, and eating it. There is a big green field in the background, and a small pond to one side. The sky is hazy with puffy clouds.

A brown mama goat and 2 baby goats all happily eating more of the invasive leafy spurge plant, along with lots of grass. There are tress in the background, and a cloudy sky.

I moved my goats onto a part of the farm with lots of invasive leafy spurge, which they very happily eat.

8 people were injured in the attack, some w/burns, as a group was concluding their weekly demonstration to raise visibility for the #hostages who remain in #Gaza. Witnesses reported the man yelled “Free Palestine” during the attack.

An #FBI affidavit says Soliman confessed to the attack after […]

[hate crimes]

People would protect my son because he's trans but set him on fire because he's Jewish. Unless it's the other way around, which it is sometimes. It's exhausting trying not to call people Nazis when they're following the whole playbook, right down to the eugenics of ableism.

I have no idea where i got this photo. It's a Pride Month miracle

A very elaborate balloon sculpture of Jesus Christ on the cross, complete with nails through his wrists and feet; a chagrined-looking muppet face; and a crown of thorns around his long balloon hair, with the vines made of deflated dark brown balloons. This is a hate crime of some kind, I'm sure of it.

I was looking for a particular picture of me from back in the day, using the keyword "ballons".

You can pick your friends, and you can pick your settings. But you can't pick your friend's settings.

@MelissaBearTrix Glad to hear it! Keep on top of things, but don't let one number run your life. ❤️

Trump is only a marginally successful con man, and he's going to be an even worse dictator. That's why the oligarchs want to get rid of him. As hard as it is to believe, he's insufficiently corrupt to please them. They have momentum right now and want to move even quicker.

@Kevin @w7voa Something happened a couple years on October 7 that made everyone hate Israel even more than they usually do

@ai6yr You do just so many interesting things. I hope you and your bees appreciate each other and keep each other fed and safe. ❤️

Unnamed federal agents are illegally detaining people whose immigration cases have been dismissed. But it gets worse.

They are now using zip-ties to restrain little kids. This is absolutely inhuman behavior.

[Trump, uspol]

People. Trump is *a bully*. I'm not going to judge you if you believed the bully from middle school who promised he was going to fuck your mom or make you eat your own testicle or whatever thing they said to scare you back then, but it's time to stop taking such threats seriously […]

@cjust You and the gang are right, of course.

@cjust If I know cats, that fetch quest is either to bring food or take away poop.

@MelissaBearTrix probably that long-lunged anemone @anemone

@MelissaBearTrix Hahaha, yeah!

My poor mom, when she was teaching, would accidentally erase things on the chalkboard. She had to choose shirts based on whether they would show chalk marks on the boobage. She would come home with snow-covered peaks. 😂

@MelissaBearTrix @anemone You're a good breather, mammal!

I'm jealous. 😁

@anemone @MelissaBearTrix Ironically, that had me wheezing, anemone!

@MelissaBearTrix Aww, that's nice! Nobody compliments my brain. I did once get approving comments on my uniform breast tissue by a gynecologist, which is just ... how my life has gone. Everyone loves the tits so much, they don't even see the brain. 😕

Pet Friendly Airlines: The Best and Worst Airlines for Pets in 2023 - Total Vet Pet Friendly Airlines - Highlights: Alaska Airlines transported over 730,000 animals between January 2015 and December 2020 (the highest number among all airlines), while maintaining an average incident rate (number of incidents inclusive of deaths, injuries, or losses per 10,000 animals transported) of 0.26. This is more than 6 times lower than the average incident

@ai6yr @pixelpusher220 She should do ads for United. https://total.vet/pet-friendly-airlines/

If you’re an ad person at Taco Bell and you’re not seriously ramping up a chicken taco campaign right now (hint: use the orange dorito shell), you’re not doing your job.

@mitten @skinnylatte July? Ugh.

Somehow a word from this story reminded me that any time someone says ‘orthogonal’ in software that is usually somehow a pretty clear sign that they are bad communicators and probably Nazis

@moira Love it. I wish I played any game enough anymore to feel it in real life; that's a fun sensation. 😁

@moira What a cool project 🙂‍↕️
