Pete Hegseth has challenged JD Vance to shave his beard. Vance has challenged Hegseth to grow one. Will American masculinity ever be the same?

For your Sunday scaries have some blue neocaridina and rasboras feeding in my 9 gallon. Taking any and all tips on how to better take underwater video!!

Everything is bad but the box turtles who live in my little slice of the riverside have started their daily visits to my back door for snacks. It’s the earliest they’ve ever come in the 7 years I’ve been here. There are at least 2 others who I’m sure will be by soon.

spelling it “diarrhoea” hits so much harder than “diarrhea”

My mardi bug nails are very important to me. Is my costume done? Absolutely not.

realized while emptying the dishwasher that Yoda is precisely wrong. not malevolently so. but there is no do and there is no do not. there is only try. this is clear to a man in his mid-fifties and so should be clear to a 900-year-old Jedi knight

What if you put 1/2 your monthly weed budget towards bail funds?

Your Mardi Gras costume budget towards one person’s transition?

Made twice as much food than you normally do so you can feed your coworker who only eats ramen?

Shared an online subscription order (like Chewy) with someone else?

If a white midwestern wellness dude can scam the public out of $90K and get everyone to do a silly buy-nothing day, what kinda meaningless political gesture can YOU inspire?

From the brilliant minds behind "THERE ARE OBVIOUS INNATE UNCHANGEABLE BIOLOGICAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE SEXES!", we now get "It is only necessary to perform scientific testing for one of them (male, obviously)"

It’s 2024 and all I want to see is my friends’ children enjoy Mardi Gras. It is 2017 and my besties and I dress as different versions of Divine. The word “filth” drawn in eyeliner on my arm sunburns and stays visible for weeks.

It’s 2013 and Kelly Clarkson is passing in front of my crowded porch while my friends get black eyes from bags of beads hurled at them by men who must train all year to injure Endymion fans. It’s 2000 and I ride in my first parade, it is uniquely miserable.

It’s 1994 and I’m knocked out by a cabbage thrown during the St Pat’s parade. It’s 2020, Bryan Cranston throws me beads and our eyes meet. It’s 1998 and I climb onto a float passing in front of Shogun.

here is mom. Love that we use the word “berried” for shrimp. Updates to follow!

Ever since I was little I knew I wanted to be a shrimp doula. Rescaped the 5G work tank for a pregnant red cherry and her dudes.
Plants include frogbit, pothos, anubias x 2, moss, baby tears, anacharis, and java fern. Adding some snails tomorrow.

A thing I admire about billy corgan is he heard his voice and was like I'm going to be the lead singer of a band and people are going to enjoy listening to this and he was right

Times have been tough in this Ohio town since they closed the old cancer factory. So when Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and Big Balls announced major cuts to cancer research funding, they finally had something to cheer about. But now the woke mob wants to take all that away.

If you have an iPhone and don’t want Apple AI monitoring/reading/learning from every single app you use, you need to make these changes (not just for Signal). 🧪

Resisting the urge to cheer for the especially fast walkers at the airport who are absolutely smoking their competition and WILL get to their gates on time. Bless you boys

Raise your hand if you recognize ecosystems are millions if not trillions of interactions, connections, cause-and-effect, etc, across just innumerable species and vagaries of landscape and microclimates such that we still haven't identified every species that lives on this marvelously complex Earth.

“I would punch a N*zi.” Um, you won’t even wear a mask.

This morning at work we mixed sterile lube and sugar together to treat a patient. Huge moment for young me making “potions” in the bathroom. 🙏🏻
