This is Pringle. He was found as a stray with a dislocated femur and severely damaged hip socket. Despite being in a lot of pain, he just wants to kiss everyone he meets. He needs surgery to repair his hip, then he can focus on giving out smooches. You can help him below ❤️‍🩹

the brown pittie mix is having his heart listened to by a vet tech. it doesn't matter that the person has a job to do, Pringle takes his opportunity to kiss the person's face. his tongue has been captured mid-lick on the person's chin.

an x-ray of Pringle's hip reveals his right femur is dislocated.

a brown pit bull mix with white on his chin and chest lays on an x-ray table. two humans support him from behind. he looks at the camera with a severely pouty face, and tall floppy ears.

Have you decorated for Halloween? This sharp nosed decorator crab is decorated to help them blend in with their chosen habitat. This one has decorated itself with tunicates and sponges. These crabs have Velcro-like hooks on their carapace which helps things to stick. #crab #docktober

Autumn is such a beautiful time of year for nature. It is a transition that signals darkness and hardship ahead, but then the eternal promise of spring. The cycle of life always returns to its beginnings. #FungiFriend

A lot of people who sign up for their health insurance next month will see that it’s doubled or tripled in price. That’s unaffordable.

And that's what Democrats are fighting to stop from happening, but Trump and Republicans would rather shut down the government than fix it.
