Wow... almost a thousand dollars in just the first few hours. Honestly I feel like a character in a corny holiday movie who lost her Christmas spirit so the town comes together to help her get it back. Except the "town" is bluesky. Thank you so much everyone. 🥹

I love Christmas and normally I'd be getting so excited right about now, but this year I'm a little down because it's our first holiday since we lost Fergus. I'm hoping I can spread some cheer and regain a little spirit myself by raising some funds for our local shelter! givebutter.com/n5l31M

my 2 year old asked my 5 year old what a "Pokemon" is and she said "its a weird animal that has unique powers" and tbh that's a lot better than I would've done trying to explain the concept

Cops killed about the same number of Black people in 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2020. 2019 was slightly more.

There was another jump in 2021, setting a new record.

2022 higher than 2021. New record.

2023 higher than 2022. New record.

2024 higher than 2023. All time high.

2025 is back down to 2016.
Chart showing police killings by month for 2017. Chart showing police killings of Black people in 2024. The chart is a record high. Chart showing police killings of Black people in 2025.

First I noticed that the orange maples leaves were zig-zagging through the pines, then I noticed the zig-zag was in the reflection too.
#photography #fall #color #pond
The orange leaves of a maple tree appear to be zig-zagging between branches of two pine trees. Although it's a bit obscure, the zig-zag pattern is there in the reflection of the trees in the pond they line.

Leading up to any major holiday, all of the food in the house are ingredients for the meal. We all starve until the big day.

Today, I’m making sausage and Belgian waffles. That is our last meal until Thursday.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is sitting next to Green, who has curled up into a tight ball, looking miserable. Green: Would you still love me if I never got better? Blue hesitates a moment before answering. Blue: What a silly thing to ask. Joining Green on the floor, Blue wraps himself around Green, who doesn't seem as sad anymore. Blue: I would love you even if you got worse.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social I met this dog today! I saw her with her mom and was going to ask if I could say hi, but before I could, they approached me, and her mom asked, “Can my dog say hi to you?”
Photo of a dog sitting on a warehouse floor, looking up lovingly toward the camera. She looks like maybe a beagle mix. Her fur is brown, black, and white, with some extra white on her sweet little face. She is wearing a harness attached to an orange leash.

A coffee stain turkey for you Americans who celebrate Thanksgiving. We Canadians celebrated our Thanksgiving last month. ☕🎨

A turkey created from a coffee stain. The brown coffee stain on a piece of paper has been enhanced with ink lines to make it look like a turkey. A few coffee beans lie nearby for scale, showing how tiny the turkey drawing really is. Art by Debbie Ridpath Ohi.

Turkey writers.

#DebbieOhiComics #Thanksgiving
Comic showing a turkey typing on a laptop. He says "Dangit! I'm going to finish this novel if it's the last thing I do." One of two turkeys in the background says, "Well, you have until this weekend, anyway." The other whispers to him, "Shh, I haven't told him about that yet." The turkey writer says, "Huh? Why? What's happening this weekend?" Comic by Debbie Ridpath Ohi.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺
