The “you guys are getting paid” meme, but the text reads “you folks are pinning posts?”

A friend shared this from another social media site. I don’t know the original artist to credit them.

But damn, the frogs are apparently the biggest, baddest military force ever, considering how “war ravaged” our Portland is supposed to be.

I think Fiasco deserves to be at least an honorary joconaut, if not given his own billing/cabin/stage. Also it’ll be on the ocean with all those tasty fish!

Jokes aside, that’s awesome for you to be on the cruise!

Passive aggressive level 100 this is how we roll in the PNW 🤣 Protesters in Portland are going ice fishing with donuts as bait on fishing polls, holding dance offs in front of ICE barricades in goofy costumes and just being incredibly annoying to ICE there's no violence from protesters whatsoever.

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

Screen cap of parodic version of William Blake's "The Tyger" that begins:
Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright
(Not sure if I spelled that right)
What immortal hand or eye
Could fashion such a stripy guy?
What the hammer that hath hewn it
Into such a chonky unit?
Did who made the lamb make thee,
Or an external franchisee?

I hate how movies/shows are filmed so dark these days. I literally cannot watch tv during daytime unless it’s a cartoon. I’ve fiddled with every setting I can find, nothing helps. Do the directors or whomever just assume everyone is in a basement or fully blacked out room?

My brain is stuck on “X-Files” cause of Scully, trying to derive it into a RPGs like maybe X-Tales or S-Tales, but none of which seem very good

This is Portland right now. We’re“under siege” by pollen and potholes, that’s about it. We have a ton of live webcams if you want to watch us go to the farmers markets or walking our dogs, we love dogs.

A “kraken of rum” is a totally valid pour. It’s basically a snack.

Don’t listen to the nay-sayers!

You, yes YOU, should buy TWO drift gloves. And then mail one to me.

Layered art pieces and painted Driftglobe lamps will be removed from the site this evening to go to market tomorrow! Unless you grab one first!

My big local fall fest is this weekend (Liberty fall fest for the KC locals)
That means if you had your eye on an art piece, you should grab it up before I take it to market!!

Meme of Gimli and Legolas from Lord of the Rings, where normally they take about fighting side by side with an elf versus friend. This one’s text:

Gimli: NEVER THOUGHT I'D DIE
FIGHTING SIDE BY SIDE WITH TYLENOL.

Legolas: WHAT ABOUT SIDE BY SIDE
WITH A NEUROSPICY FRIENDP

Gimli: AYE, I COULD DO THAT
