StopICE is still up though.

Ooh that's very good! Halloween sales items are the best home decor. Every day I brush my teeth with a black skull and skeletal hand chalice.

I felt SO OLD when I flipped through the DJs opening Transmission over at Rock & Roll Hotel...

Welp, I'm screwed... #ADHD #Fortunecookie

Oh it's deeeefinitely DC, you can't walk a half block without encountering something that says "fuck Trump". Though I did appreciate whoever went with the egalitarian "fucc everyone" scrawled along the nightclub strip recently...

Look at these goofs.

A little room guys? No? Nothing? #catsky #catsofbluesky #sharingiscaring

Their new album is out so maybe decide based on how much you dig it since it'll probably be featuring?

Their Blaqk Audio performance was fine, nothing jawdropping but entertaining enough. I imagine having a full band would help. I'm pretty sure I saw them at Warped Tour one year but it was right before Davey had to stop due to throat injury and he was definitely struggling at the time so...

Can also give strongly opinionated recommendations for local businesses run by goodhearted people in just about any category you might care to name.

Little Beasts: Art, Wonder, and the Natural World | Washington DC Experience the wonder of nature through the eyes of artists. Look closely at art depicting insects and other animals alongside real specimens.

Well heck, you're coming to DC the one day I'm leaving. Loyalty's a bit outside the core of the city, but if you have time washington.org/event/little... - I *think* it's still open despite the shutdown.

This heavy, disruptive helicopter presence has been a problem for weeks now, but this is extra absurd. Can your guys show some slight measure of restraint and common sense?

@mayorbowser.dc.gov your MPD has been circling a residential neighborhood at low altitude with an extremely loud helicopter for HOURS at 3 in the morning. Safety is a priority but clearly they're not finding what they're seeking. What they are doing is keeping the entire city awake.

Ok, not my normal #booksky pitch but just finished @tkingfisher.com's latest 2 books and, er - read if you're into amorphous solids and creepy optical effects? 🤔

Sooooo many rescues out there though, and they're all delightful little weirdos

Back in 2022/23 - do not recommend googling. In short the company had to euthanize a very large number of critters and had to restart from private breeders and non-American lines which seems to have been good for the extremely inbred American housepets - supposedly they live to like 14 in the wild.

That is a biiiig baby. As extremely sad as the Marshall distemper outbreak was, their post-outbreak genes sure seem to be healthier/more robust. Fingers crossed it also means fewer weasel diseasels...

Most of those 20+ million didn't realize they're on said Medicaid...

What an appallingly dreadful person 🤢

It really isn't the hobbies, or the looks, or whatever else. I love traditionally buff male bodies who are interested in survival skills and home garage shops! What I don't love is selfish children in adult bodies with one dimensional personalities.

There is a fascinating military publication from 1945 training members of the Army how to recognize fascism and what it would look like in America - and they regrettably hit the nail on the head.

Yeeeah it really varies state to state. Birmingham AL had both a neighborhood school g&t program and a dedicated magnet school back in the 90s, Virginia has regional dedicated magnet schools as does Maryland...

Small kittens are cute but we still have so many older kittens and adult cats who need their perfect people, too. If you’ve been thinking about adding a cat to your life, check out some wonderful little souls looking for homes in the Mid-Atlantic: crits4cats.petfinder.com

I am terribly sad to share that one of my greatest inspirations and role models, primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall, has died. In the words of the UN, she "worked tirelessly for our planet and all its inhabitants, leaving an extraordinary legacy for humanity and nature".

Ziggy, a light sable ferret, lying wumped on the hardwood floor next to a charging cable that gives him the appearance of being plugged in

Aw man, I hate it when you go to grab your ferret and realize you didn't quite get the cable connected and the battery's at like 1%...

Now get these thugs arrested. bsky.app/profile/thet...

You cannot fight Christianized Nationalism with reason.

You have to overcome it from the heart. You have to draw on that internal power no matter your tactics, your capacities or your actions.

Got to hang out with some friends down at Rock Creek Park today. #ducksky

Saw this Philip Labes song on my lunch break scrolling TikTok and it is good
