Yeah... decided to switch to a new/old PFP for a while. It's not recent, but one of my more flattering favorites. (Mattie the Wonder Horse from the last one deserves a li'l break time back at the barn...)

It and I am old enough that we used to call them 'avatars,' kids.

*me facepalms so hard it comes out in stereo* 🤦‍♀️

She'd probably explode if she learned what goes into my homemade pizza or lasagna.

Some of the upgraded monkeys got anxiety. The others were gifted with unlimited stupid.

They're feral and have consciously discarded civilized behavior.

I'll take one off your hands, or claws or grippers or whatever: I am most definitely not a Kaiju.

I've noticed they show nothing but feral glee every time they betray somebody—including their own GOPer base.

"Hahahaha! You fools never should've trusted us to keep our word on ANYTHING!"

And it's as if they're in a malignant competition to see who can be the most depraved and despicable.

Love the way your specs go so well with the top. Well done. 👍

Sorry about the insomnia; it and I are well-acquainted.

Alas, your loss (sleep) is our gain (pretty pictures). 😉

One the things I hate the most is supine, sycophantic 'journalists' constantly asking him questions that do nothing but illustrate his abysmal, dangerous ignorance, and result only in him rashly ordering malignant, sadistic, and usually illegal actions harming millions of innocent people.

We used to not let demented crazy people be in charge of important things.

Like governments and nuclear weapons, for instance.

You're need to admit that your Federation starship designs don't appear to include public restrooms and we have yet to see a toilet even in crew quarters. Sinks yes, toilets no.

You can. Just hang on.

I really shouldn't drink coffee in the evening, yet for some reason I've really been craving coffee lately. Like a lot.

Normally, I drink tea. All. The. Time. Didn't even have coffee for several years. Now I can't get enough.

Best of luck. I got my covid booster (2025/26 formulation) last month and it wasn't bad at all.

BeccaM @becca.net · 2d

Will they let me set up camp in front of that cheese display? I figure 4-5 days to explore everything in there.

BeccaM @becca.net · 2d

Oh, I dunno. Mine are with me everywhere I go, and it's not like they're inconspicuous at all, so I don't deprived when my TL doesn't have any.

Indeed, especially if I've been running on very short sleep several nights in a row before then.

I almost always feel way better, mood-wise, after a good workout.

Endorphins are fun!

It *is* real, and you got this! Best of luck with your procedure. 👍

No question. Totally the purpose and point.

I'm pretty sure she does, based on what she says about them...and the fact Mr. Pickles enjoys kissing Mr. Pickles.

lol

This niece is also super heavily into "creepy" things right now. She drew a picture of a long-armed monster that hugs people to death. (She's fine, just very imaginative.)

BeccaM @becca.net · 4d

It's fine. I often see terms like aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, and cousin as not necessarily having the additional qualifiers for generation or marital status or whatever.

But yes, she was delightful and very keen on telling me all kinds of stories as to what Misters Pickles were up to. lol
