And it had its own piece of furniture designed to ensconce it in particle board.

An old computer with a crt monitor is on a wooden desk. The desk has a pull out shelf for the keyboard and shelves dedicated to cd cases. The computer is on the desk surface but it should be underneath on a separate shelf. There is a mouse on a mousepad, a speaker, and on top of the computer tower there is an old school gaming joystick.

Tony Soprano smiling while driving and looking at the passenger, a cartoon speech bubble is overlayed pointing down, as if he is saying the text in the quoted skeet.

Life imitating art.

A black metal alley gate with red rose ornamentation growing off vines with sets of three green leaves. A real vine with sets of theee green leaves, the same size as the metal ones, grows up into the corner of the gate, against the brick wall of the home.

At R&D restaurant & cocktail bar. I’m at a table with a large ceramic half peeled banana with a drink inside that is on fire.

Hawks are so rad, and so many in Philly. They come to my back yard frequently. Here is one from January ‘25. He had a pigeon. Excuse the silly narration.

Patchwork. Perfect two player game.

The cover of the board game patchwork. It says “Patchwork, by Uwe Rosenberg” at the top. The cover of the game is a large quilt. At the bottom it says “For two players “

She hasn’t trusted our hat choices since we made her the big bad wolf for our Halloween group costume.

The same brown toy poodle, now wearing a “grandmother” outfit with a night gown and frilly hat.

A series of screen captures from a scene on Arrested Development, where Tobias and Lindsay are discussing having an open relationship.
Lindsay “Well did it work for those people?”
Tobias “No, it never does, I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but… but it might work for us.”

Cheaper than Visio.

A plastic template tool on a white piece of paper on a desk. The tool is labeled “flowchart template “ and it has drawing templates for a dozen flow chart shapes like documents, processes, etc.

Read the whole article, but this conclusion is what we all have to work towards.

So what's to be done? The Supreme Court itself has shown itself to be the enemy of democracy. If and when Democrats retake control of the political branches, it will be incumbent on them not only to write new voting legislation protecting minority voters and all voters in the ability to participate fairly in elections that reflect the will of all the people; they will also have to consider reform of the Supreme Court itself, a conclusion I had been resisting until the court made this unavoidable.

Tarsier looks like a wizard to me. The big eyes, long fingers, and already holding a staff!

A tarsier, a tiny nocturnal primate with huge eyes. It’s clinging to a tree branch.

Perfect hammock afternoon.

POV from laying in my hammock in my back yard. A large green tree arches overhead. The rear of row homes are visible in the background.

Text from a famous tweet
You can say "I like pancakes" and somebody will say "So you hate waffles?"

That’s is absolutely stunning! Reminds me of Katie Marovitch in dimension 20 on a bus!

Katie Marovitch as the dragon master of dimension 20 on a bus. She is wearing large pointy elf ears that are slightly cockeyed, and a long blonde wig. She is seated behind some mountainous terrain pieces. Her ears, lipstick and eyebrows reminded me of the beautiful artwork of the OP.

I just keep asking questions to understand why Fetterman is betraying his constituents and supporters so consistently. Why he supports Trump and has become such a coward. @fetterman.senate.gov I donated to you, I bought your merch. You even liked my tweet! You have betrayed your oath. Resign now.

That’s a deal! I just created my account on ko fi, so it put my name as my email (awkward) but if you click it you should see it is me. My character is a hill giant Goliath barbarian. Thanks!

My guy is back too.

A woodchuck stands on his back legs in some patchy dirt/grass in my backyard. A tree cuts across the foreground and there are fallen woody vines hanging to the right.

Here is a much better system.

A box of spiral bound notebooks on a store shelf. The book title is “Forgot Your Password”? in a blue font like a url link, with a mouse pointer on top. The box and sub title read “a confidential handbook to keep all your usernames * passwords * websites at your fingertips.” The price sticker is $5.99

I took this photo in 2017 because I thought it was so insane to keep a book with all your info!

Brief break from the gloominess of the world and news. Relaxed for a bit in my hammock.

A POV picture looking down at a man’s bare feet in a blue and white striped hammock. Beyond the end of the hammock are the rears of row homes, a bright blue sky and many branches hanging down from above.
