Not everything is awful, look at this gorgeous af cutting board made of native repurposed NZ wood I got in the post today from @paullecomtephoto.nz 🥰🥰🥰

Beautiful wooden cutting board tied up with twine in a bow with a care pamphlet on top.

So grateful I found you, @jluvs2luv.bsky.social ... Love has never been so easy nor as fulfilling. It's a joy to see you smile. 🥰😊

Life hack: Date someone that finds pleasure in making you happy.

soullsage replies:

As a relationship therapist, I'd phrase it this way: Date someone who genuinely enjoys contributing to your well-being-and be someone who finds joy in theirs. The healthiest relationships aren't built on keeping score.

They're built on two people who naturally take pleasure in seeing each other smile, succeed, and feel cared for. When making your partner happy feels like a burden, resentment usually follows. When it becomes an expression of love rather than an obligation, generosity grows.

Now I'm wondering if Chester could sport it...

Chester the Chinese Crested dog, who is mostly hairless save all the hair on his head and paws and tail.

From zero to three in one day. 😁 #Pikachu #PokémonGo #Pokémon

Search showing 3 perfect IV Pikachu, all caught today, all costume. CPs are 616, 402, and 321. The 616 and 321 have similar costumes, just a different colour band on their black top hats. The 402 was from a lucky trade and has a tiny purple hat.

I already liked her from The Bear, but this just takes my appreciation to whole other level because COMMUNITY CARE AND WEARING AN N95?! HELLO could she get any more awesome?! 😍😍😍😍😍 I love everything to do with this. 🥰🥰🥰

Screenshot of Twitter post from DiscussingFilm which says "Ayo Edebiri wearing a 'Do not talk to me about AI I will kill myself' shirt."

Below is a picture of Ayo wearing the aforementioned shirt, which is white with black lettering in caps, but she's also wearing a black N95 mask.

Starting soon! I'm excited for this Matariki special, including performances from Stan Walker, Maisey Rika, and Troy Kingi. 😃😃

Stage filled with purple light at Auckland Town Hall for the Matariki Festival for 2026. There is a background of a night sky with Matariki (aka Pleiades for those up North) rising just above the horizon, low in the sky. Banners along the sides of the stage read "Matariki Festival 2026" over a twilight coloured sky gradient.

This dog tends to have zero chill inside of a car. 😅 But he sure is cute. #Chester #chinesecresteddog

Chester in a parked car, sitting on J's lap in the driver's seat. He is looking extra adorable in some winter clothing that looks a bit like a Christmas sweater. He also is wearing a harness with his name on it. His eyes are opened very wide though, suggesting he is not fully relaxed about being in a car.

Chester again in the car on my partner's lap, only with his mouth open wide and tongue hanging out. You can almost hear the panting, which is happening because he is anxious as heck in cars and wants to get the heck out asap.

And for fun, a couple work in progress pics. 😸

Rough doodle of cat and yarn ball with some nebula background painted.

Cat and background basically finished, yarn ball still undone.

I'm calling it finished, I got it done for today after all! This is a memorial piece for my friends' beloved cat who passed away a week or so ago and they're really upset about it. I hope it adds some joy to this hard time for them. #cat #painting #acrylic #art #caturday

Painting of my friend's beautiful recently died cat with a mix of tabby and calico looking coat in a relaxed pose in space, surrounded by nebula that's loosely based on M16: eagle nebula. It's looking over at a yarn ball Earth, with a bit of Africa, Australia, and Antarctica visible to us the viewer, and the cat is looking towards Africa.

He sure looks like an angel. And with us, can be one. But oof... he isn't the most friendly to anyone deemed a non-pack member though. 😮‍💨 At least Kitty is a sweetie, she picks up his slack in that regard. Kitty pic as tax.

Spider pic🕷️ First pic shows scale/how tiny it is. It's the littlest spec on the wall there. It's so small all the colour vanished to my naked eye, it just looked like the SMALLEST POSSIBLE black spider. Second pic is my phone's ability to zoom. It's so shiny! And has colour!! What a special fren!

Close up picture of tiles on a shower wall, a hint of shower curtain to the left, a couple bottles of dog wash below, and on the wall the tiniest little black speck which doesn't look like much of anything at all, but it's the focus of this post -- a bit quite 2mm long spider. It looks black.

Close up of this spider. Its body is dark brown, and it glistens in the bathroom light. Its legs are pale brown with darker joints, giving it kind of a cool look. Light also glistens on the spindly legs.

It's another day to be Umbreon. #Pokémon #PokémonGo #SuperMegaSkarmoryRaidDay

Selfie of me dressed as Umbreon. I have black bellbottoms with slits cut into it in a stripey pattern. Over it is a soft plush fabric onesie in dark grey with furry edges and big ears which go straight out to the sides with yellow ring markings. I'm smiling happily.

I've traveled the States pretty extensively before I moved to Aotearoa. Utah is my favourite one, for the sheer beauty of it. Map made at roadtripowl.com/where-ive-be...

These are the Crocs I got, but they don't look typical. But they are colourful. 😁 Tbh, I'm not typically one for animal print, but I needed something that would fit over my ankle brace & these did and they were the most fun pair I saw so I went with it. Also they were discontinued & on serious sale.

Very, very bright and vibrant neon colours shoes which are a pale neon rainbow gradient cycling through colours from the toe to the heel, with multi colour very bright leopard animal print in black and rainbow neon over it. The soles of the shoes are super bright pink. These are Croc work shoes, so none of the usual air holes you'd see in the typical clog type. They mostly look like regular shoes, just in a rubbery smooth texture. Also my right ankle is wearing a black ankle brace.

Hey Aotearoa! There's another price match on donations to the Green party now, and we really need them to be funded so we can have policy based on reality instead of racist vibes/billionaire bullshit. Donate here: www.greens.org.nz/amp_up_our_c... More info from the Green Party directly 👇🏼💚

Your gifts have a tangible impact:

$15 pays for a small billboard

$28 allows us to have 100 conversations

$40 pays for one large hoarding

$140 covers the cost of 1000 flyers

$275 pays for one of 9 field organisers around the country for a day

$1375 is one field organiser for one week

The coalition parties use their funding to stoke the fires of disinformation, division and fear mongering through the media and advertising.

By contrast, our ground campaign and field strategy is supported by evidence just like our policy.

We know that people vote because of trust and the best way to build people's trust is to have one on one conversations. The number of conversations Green volunteers and candidates are able to have with people is directly linked to the number of people who Party Vote Green. Generally, 1 in 3 conversations turns out a vote for the Greens! So it's crucial that we have the financial resources to amp up our campaign.

Your vote matters and is the only thing, on election day, that can elect a Green Government. Funding matters because it helps us have more conversations with people in our communities, including those who may not have considered voting Green (or voting ever!) before.

Bus station sign, probably in UK (sorry I do not know photo credit), showing a pink background with cute little graphics like a rainbow connected to smiling clouds and pretty flowers.

Text across the image reads: "if you have a trillion dollars in a world where children are starving, you're not a visionary, you're just a cunt"

Elon Musk, in a black suit with white shirt and black bowtie, is seen below this text. His pose looks like he's in the middle of a dance number in a show tune, as if to be like, "yeah I'm an absolute cunt and I truly do not care at all!"

Thoughts from my friend out in Portland, OR. Can't say I disagree!!

Screenshot of text reading;

Unfortunately, in Amerikka, bombs cost money. We don't have free bomb care here.

Well, now that I think about it, we do have free bomb care, technically.

Well other countries have free health care, which is slang for subsidized by taxpayers.

Which makes sense because ppl get sick.

So we care for our bombs by funding them and when we need more money for bombs we just pull it out of our ass and it magically appears.

But anytime someone wants to talk about free health care we're suddenly a capitalist country.

But really we're a socialist country because our military, bombs, and various racist arms of enforcement are always paid for with our taxes and never underfunded.

The spin doctor word is capitalist because it evoke the idiotic mantra that "anyone can become Tom Vu or Mark Zuckerfuck rich" while we have socialized bomb care.

So we are a socialist country. We just socialize by killing people.

My wonderful child sent me this, and I'm so proud. 🥰 She gets it.

Image of a person with a couple tattoos, wearing glasses on a blanket on a deck in a striped shirt, leaned over some paper, writing with their left hand. Over it is a whole message which reads:

was feeling tempted to use AI to do my homework for me

and then I remembered that anti-intellectualism is a hallmark of fascism and this brain needs to be trained to recognise misinformation and share complex ideas and handle nuance and if I outsource all the hard stuff to AI I become that much easier to manipulate

suddenly I love homework
