With everything so seemingly terrible these days & no sign of anything remotely hopeful in the near future, I thought you might need this photo of a baby giraffe.

In troubling times, people experiencing high stress or crippling anxiety deal with it in different ways. Some have a therapist, some have a deep breathing exercise & some even have a personal mantra.

I have a Mabel.

I loved it in Pinocchio, but in real life... not so much. 👀 😱

#WhaleOfA-Tale

Worst. Episode. EVER.

"It's almost impossible to believe he exists.
It's as if you took everything that was bad about America, scraped it off the floor, put it in an old hot dog skin & taught it to make noises with its mouth"

#PRESIDEMENTIA

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

I think he needs to be sent there, ASAP... one way ticket...

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY!

If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK!

Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore.

JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺

#24HourEconomicBlackout

In today's lunchtime walk, my jacket colour matched this cute fungus.

Looks like witches' butter to me 🧡

Who can relate?

The world rushes past below, seen from aboard the ISS on December 23, 2024, somewhere above China (likely taken by astronaut Don Pettit, though I can't verify).

Oh this is wicked, I like it very much.

Last minute Christmas gift ideas. 😉

The image shows a black cat sitting on a tiled floor against a white wall. A prominent, jagged crack runs vertically from the top of the wall down to the cat's head, creating the humorous illusion that the crack is originating from the cat. The wall is plain, with a textured surface, and the floor tiles are light-colored, contrasting with the dark cat and the crack.

The news is shit.

The news will be shit for another four years, often.

You are not obligated to stay tuned all the time. Breaks are good--necessary, even. You are not failing the cause by making sure your soul remains intact. Survival is enough, sometimes.

False color image of the star-forming region NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Delicate lanes of gas are dotted by bright stars in this image produced with JWST's NIRCam instrument. The dominant colors of the gassy regions are purple and orange. Stars show the characteristic six-fold diffraction spikes produced by JWST. Exposures in four wavelength ranges were colored Red, Orange, Cyan, and Blue and then combined.
