Much respect to them. I could not build that nest

"When Bert walks by, I'm going to whack him on the back and knock him over. Make sure you record it"

I reckon sweaters for octopuses must be very complicated, so that expression and the head scratch are so perfect

Thank you Danna! 🐙🧶 I love it and I hope @skribbler.bsky.social does too :)

Happy birthday! Any chance you could do a cephalopod knitting for my bestie? TY!

We are losing a generation. When we speak of Civil Rights and the Civil Rights Movement we speak of a multigenerational moment of people who fought an uphill battle against a system they weren’t allowed to win in.

And their stories are being erased and rewritten

RIP Rev. Jackson, thank you.

I miss those days

I'm 100% Polish, but I never heard them until I moved to Chicago (from Boston). But now I'm all "oh no -- these two boxes are just enough for me. Good luck, but you're on your own."

9 because I’m allergic to seafood and don’t eat organ meats. There are a few I don’t like and choose not to cook for myself but if someone invites me to dinner and they’re on the plate, say, I’ll adult.

I’m a huge fan of Pilllar and go there every time I visit the city (a friend lives nearby on Central). When I’m a resident later this year, I look forward to basically just being the coffee shop version of a barfly there. Corner just had an awful vibe from the one time I looked through the window.

OMG I really needed this after an upsetting conversation with a friend and that video and that purr and that flop and that “miaou” just turned my night around. I’m just going to let it loop for a while, so don’t be fooled by the number of views. And thank you for your perfect timing.

The first season of Paper Chase is on YouTube so I would have watched it then too. And that “You Bet Your Life” rerun.

this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart

1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks

2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections

Darn it I just wish history could offer some lesson about this sort of thing

Feel free to share with her my photo of the Solidarity Cows in my profile banner from the protests of Walker then. There are other photos of them online. Those protests set the stage for the great cosplay we've seen in recent protests. The recall itself failed but there were enduring influences.

Flashing back to Monty Python's "Argument Clinic"

Ironic that a doctor is a mouth breather but here we are

Nice. I recently spotted a Voigtlander Brillant in a thrift store and think I’m going to go back and give it a closer second look next week.

Cab Calloway’s “Hepster Dictionary,” a 1939 Glossary of the Lingo (the “Jive”) of the Harlem Renaissance The lists are in. By overwhelming consensus, the buzzword of 2014 was “vape.” Apparently, that’s the verb that enables you to smoke an e-cig. Left to its own devices, my computer will still autocorrec...

I have a bootleg reprint edition of this from a decade or so ago and wish this version was a PDF (how often do you hear *that*?), but this page may also be useful:

One of the best reasons to use tracker apps is knowing how far away that “another one” is before they say that.

@tommakescomics.bsky.social any chance you’ve got some backstory there?

Wow. Beautiful.

That photo on the right is the most marvelous glaring sulk I’ve ever seen.
