I am wheezing.
An abomination of a black ford truck with a camper shell. It has led puck lights all over it and multiple light bars on top. And a tiny spoiler on top of the camper shell.

The timing of this video my niece took is hilarious.

Danny Devito in mortician makeup and a tux with his arms wide looking defensive on a stage with a backdrop of silvery strands of reflective ribbon. He’s desperate to prove that he DID NOT diddle kids.

I imagine it would be startling to look into an elevator door and see this person standing there.

I’d jump too.
A humanoid alien with exposed blue and purple skeletal features wearing a suit and tie is speaking in front of a large sign that says “OBEY” in bold black letters. The image is a still from the movie They Live.

What does ‘self cancel’ even mean 🤣

Bari is the embodiment of this meme.
Split image showing a young child lying on the ground. On the left, the child looks calmly ahead with a black rubber boot pressing down on the side of their head. On the right, the child appears distressed or in pain, with the same boot still pressing on their head. The child is wearing a plaid shirt with a Mickey Mouse patch. The scene takes place on a concrete or dirt surface

Unless we collectively do what @tressiemcphd.bsky.social advocates here: protest, fight, and take action *now* to obstruct their takeover.
A screenshot of a column by Tressie McMillan Cottom that states: We must start asking how we can save ourselves. We are seeing the start of that in places like Los Angeles, San Antonio and Raleigh, N.C. Only direct, sustained protest will protect us. Everyday people standing between authoritarianism and our freedom scare the administration. They reveal the greatest informal mechanism for democratic enforcement: not kings, not former presidents, but the power of the people. And as a comment, user another human writes: Most people I know aren't looking for Obama or other former presidents to save us, they just want them to speak up. That doesn't seem like much to ask, and I agree it's quite odd to basically have radio silence from them as the country is falling apart. Tressie McMillan Cottom replies: @Another human We overstate former presidents’ pulpit. For example, President Obama gave a fairly provocative, wide-ranging speech on democracy, authoritarianism, and our political moment. That speech happened barely a month ago at Hamilton College. It is freely available online. I doubt readers who want Obama to “speak up” saw it. That is to my point — he has spoken. Did you hear him and did it move the needle?

What movie did you see way too young?
From John Carpenter’s The Thing - a horror muppet with the face of a human with fangs, a long next, a body with spider legs sticking out of it and what might be the body of a dog, dangling from ductwork in the ceiling. It’s practical effects so it looks a little rubbery and silly.

Can’t get up from the floor. The perfect floof demands attention.
A gray long-haired cat sits near a staircase railing, looking slightly blurry in motion. In the foreground, part of a man’s bearded face and upper body is visible; he’s wearing a blue shirt and lying on the floor. A healing scratch is visible on his arm. Shelves with various household items are in the background.

Two-panel screenshot from the TV show It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In both panels, the character Frank Reynolds, played by Danny DeVito, is holding a cloth and speaking animatedly to another character who is partially visible. Behind Frank is a computer monitor and an “Ireland” poster on the wall. Captions in the first panel read: “♪♪ DO NOT DIDDLE KIDS ♪♪” and in the second panel: “♪♪ IT’S NOT GOOD DIDDLING KIDS ♪♪”.

This comic is undefeated.
A political cartoon titled “Five Stages of White House Employment” by Kuper. It depicts a cycle of employment under former and current U.S. President Donald Trump, showing five stages: an excited new hire in a red hat, a handshake with Trump, working under pressure, Trump menacingly holding a knife, and finally being shown the door with a knife in his back. The figures move along a conveyor belt of clocks, symbolizing the fleeting nature of employment.

I may die from second-hand cringe as I try not to imagine how this conversation went.

Fellas, don’t… don’t fucking offer women your sperm.

Ah shit you just reminded me of a guy who friended me on Facebook outta nowhere. Hit me outta nowhere with the attached message. We became online friends at random. He died a couple of years ago of heart disease. RIP Shayne.

Facebook sucks. But people are pretty cool.

Trying to distract with scritches. Limited success.
Black and white tuxedo cat on his side, eyes open, looking grumpy. He’s still on a well worn maroon faux leather chair. A Caucasian man’s arm is scratching his side belly.

If you see this picture you have to post an image from your phone but don't explain it.
