No uniforms, no identification, faces covered. They could be anybody! This is horrifying.

So fascinating to watch! I love both the process and the result. Beautiful work.

I love this painting. I felt it.

I just can’t stand the genre. Every now and again I’ll start a book only to have it veer in that direction and I drop it faster than Luis Castillo drops a pop fly.

I’ve seen at least four of them in my garden this summer. Wonderful little bugs!

And here’s one right back atcha!

But not always so spectacularly.

OMGosh, they’re all smiling!

Let’s all get together and collectively block this idiot: @jd-vance-1.bsky.social

No love for MAGA here. Scurry back to your previous slumlord.

Andy Wise is anything but. It’s def a JD support automaton.

Lulu is acknowledging #Caturday by walking around the house meowing loudly. It’s the 20-year-old cat equivalent of a 94-year-old man yelling for you to get off the lawn.

That can’t be real, can it? I feel like I’m living in a Star Trek alternate universe.

Last time he told you not "not to worry" half a million Americans died of Covid.

I feel bad for my friend who who saved up to purchase a Tesla a few years ago. They are a liberal dem and it hurts to see people throw nastiness toward them simply because they didn’t predict what Elon would be doing a few years later.

Please clarify which boomers, because I am one and I don’t know anyone who thinks like that.

Yes, it did! Thank you very much.
