Screenshot of a Bluesky post by @spavel.bsky.social from Apr 15, 2025. Text reads: “The real pitch, of course, isn't to consume the slop, but to join the exalted ranks of slop producers. The typical slop middleman makes an "Al company" - they run the gamut from Grammarly to Synthetic Users - and resells the processed slop with the same pitch: you too can now make slop.”

Used to accompany my Dad to the Super Bowls, and going through some pictures to reminisce…

Lady Gaga’s halftime show, 2017.
Photo of the 2017 Super Bowl halftime show. Black & white image of the darkened stadium illuminated by star-shaped lights, fireworks and rays of floodlights through smoke.

Sheru, our most Minnesotan of cats, will not directly fuss about someone else eating her food, but will instead quietly gaze at a third party, hoping you clearly see the Injustice taking place and recognize her for the true, patiently suffering heroine that she is.

With the Amy news, I was trying to remember—and not quite getting it right in my memory—this description by @ziibiing.com and pleased to find I made a screenshot.
Screenshot of a May 21, 2020 tweet by Ashley Fairbanks. Text reads: “Adding Amy Klobuchar to a Biden ticket is like pouring soy milk on cottage cheese and calling it a sundae.”

So this is really how you’re gonna cover this moment, MPR?

Seriously????
Screenshot from the Minnesota Public Radio website. Paragraph about ICE killing reads: “ICE officials say the woman was shot and killed Wednesday morning in south Minneapolis after attempting to run over agents with her car. Mayor Jacob Frey called the ICE version of what happened "garbage." Gov. Tim Walz is expected to speak at 2:15 p.m.” Below this, a link to a secondary article—highlighted by me—to presumably add “context” with the headline: “Greg Bovino's the star of Trump's deportation show. We trace his roots.”

Glad I have been preparing for #2 for a while! 😅
Screenshot of a post to the Facebook Group World of Echoes, Sep 23, 2020. Text reads: “Song melodies I sing my cats’ names with… A thread.”

Test lighting the so-so Yayoi Kusama pumpkin.

Drill bit wanted to wander when starting the holes, so more uneven than I hoped…

Have always viewed this Onion headline from the Birther years as the most accurate, essential characterization, upon which very little of the zillion articles of analysis have improved:

Current employment is heeding Teddy’s impatient meows and hoisting his favorite yarn toy in the air as he leaps after it with abandon.

Repeat Until Sufficiently Exhausted.
Two photos of Teddy the cat: in the first, he is stationed on the floor gazing fixedly at a bundle of yarn held aloft. In the second he is a blur of motion leaping to catch the yarn toy in his mouth.
