Red boxes are Tornado Warnings, they literally do not, especially when compared to the big red blob in the URL card that Youtube shows on Ryan's feed combined with the way the English language is comprehended by people.

Determinate tomato plant goes brrrrrrr

Yes

A sea of Blue Lake green bean plants, because the rows are too close and it's fine, I don't make good choices.

Update from yesterday morning: Lol (brick for scale)

Picture of zucchini on plant. It is Lo g and slender-ish, but it's about to become A Problem.

There is a brick next to it. It is Al oat twice as long as the brick. Bout 2/3 the width.

I know you see it in your head.

Still image from a handheld video camera recording the very end of a Cheers episode. This still shows the Charls/Burrows/Charles Productions title card, with the second "Charles" about halfway onto the screen on its way in.

There's faint ghosting on the in-motion text, which could be from the camera or it's the ghosting that happens when an over-the-air TV signal bounces off buildings in an urban area, which can lead to a phased arrival of multiple copies of the signal at the TV set.

The YouTube video in question is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDEA7rUSi9c

Our lead zucchini plant is batting 1-3 on getting properly pollinated so far, so I was instructed to go sex0r the fourth fruit this morning. I took a video to post, but my hand looks like I weigh 300 lb in it, so I'm not going to post it. Here's at least a still of the fruit/flower.

Photo of a zucchini plant, dominated by an open female flower on the end of an immature fruit (can't see the fruit). Rest of image is leaf stems and a previously not-properly-pollinated zucchini can be seen further up the plan. The ground is mostly covered with straw, but there's some black trash bag visible around the base of the plant on the right side.

Good morning, everyone.

Working on the MTB after the March incident, and I get new hanger put on and am getting ready to put the week on and get the chain to finish up the cable and...oh...

The plants are much smaller than our Blue Lakes (green bean supremacy) so far, but the "Frenchies" (Cantare) are the first out with tiny little baby beans this year.

Part of a green bean plant, backed by a bed of straw and there's some overgrown lawn grass at the edge of the frame.

The green bean plant has a blob of blooms to the right and further up the stem a bit is a couple-three little baby beans.

Here's another specific situation that muddies the waters that I happen to know about. See map. This is in New Palestine IN, east of IND. The east-west trail across the top is the Pensy (RIP PRR) rail-to-trail. The stretch from 100 S to 200 S has painted bike lanes but also a MUP. 1/

Googs Map of the praries of Indiana east of Indianapolis. US 40 is kind of at the top, with the Pensy trail mostly parallel. Along 600 West is a marked "dedicated lane", but there's actually a MUP on the ground.

Maybe bike racing will fix me?

The first pole bean cleared the tower yesterday.

Y'all wanna see some shit? OR Why do you insist on tubeless, Kerry? I don't even know how long it was there. I rode this morning, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The only reason I found it is I took the tire off to change wheels to my latest bad idea ebay purchase.

View of the inside of a GP5000 S-TR full of goopy sealant with a ~2.5" finishing nail sticking out of it, pointed towards where the rim would be. The old Stans Alpha 400 it came off of is in the background.

Another view of the nail sticking into the tire from the outside. In this view, one can a bit better how it came it at an angle, which is the only way there was room for it. Yes, the sealant is highly gross.

Here's the outside of the tire. The tiny nail gun-style nail head is basically flush with the tire. It's right at the point of those little GP5K "wave" tread pattern.

Hey, remember this guy? ^^ Guess who I ran into again on Tuesday morning?

You all are never going to believe what happened next 😭😭😭

A wood kitchen floor with a dishwasher to the left. It’s dark. There’s a gunmetal cocktail shaker on the floor and bourbon and ice everywhere.

Looks nice, but hot and gross. Also had a sun halo around my head, so if I die, please know I'm still mad everything sucks.

View looking down at the cockpit of a bicycle, my left arm’s in the shot and you can see a sun halo around my head against the freshly paved and also freshly painted double yellow line Road.
The GPS is showing me lolly-gagging on a live segment, but I'm literally behind the paint truck.

Morning, how are things going with you? I am usually much, much more aggressive about being in the lane, esp approaching an intersection, but those rumble strips aren't a lot of fun, so I bob around them. Guess I'll stop doing that, although I don't think that would have changed anything here.
