Aww, they're sharing so good 🖤💛🖤💛

Similar, and I've never not lived in OH! I've mostly adopted "y'all" over "you guys," but I'll cling to my pop and devil strip til I die. I love that each region has its own distinct character and charm.

Some native plants going off this month

Bee balm pink flowers with a hummingbird moth, a small moth that resembles a flying shrimp

A yellow butterfly (swallowtail?) sits on some stalks of anise hyssop, a gentle purple flower

Three different kinds of pink flowers: purple coneflower, and two types of bee balm

Well there's your problem

A chart showing the PM2.5 AQI for my area. It says Hazardous. "Stay indoors." The gauge is all the way to max.

I didn't lose it until the end. This one, as I scrolled down to reveal the backwards arm, broke me.

An AI generated ad for a bagel place. Features an AI generated man in line, facing away from the viewer and actively in line, carrying a bag of bagels in his arm, but his arm is on wrong. The man is also wearing a hat that says "Bagel provider, Est. Always" which is incredible. I have no idea what the name of the establishment is because design principles are not followed.

They are Very Serious bird talks! (Bird Nerds of Summit Metro Parks in OH) The creative nicknaming sparked joy, so thank you for spreading it around 🙌

@banditelli.org I attended a parks program about belted kingfishers today. Thanks to you and your killfawns, I asked if they call the kingfisher kids "princefishers and princessfishers" 🙏🥹

The orange flowers may be done, but Tappy has a steady stream of friends all year

So showy right now!

Fireworks in my yard popping off silently for the 4th (Bee balm & purple coneflower blooming)

Bee balm and conflowers, striking pink, magenta, and purplish flowers

Happy birthday to our dear Apollo!!! ❤️🍰🦅🎉❤️

An ink drawing of Apollo the bald eagle from animal crossing holding a cake with a candle on top. Apollo looks joyful. On another sheet of paper is written, Happy Birthday Apollo!

Cast yourself as a villain

Lady Elaine Fairchilde from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. She was the antagonistic puppet from Make Believe Land, and she terrified me as a kid.

Modern libraries are amazing and anyone can check out and play physical video games from the library, as long as the physical games exist 🥲

Various Switch, ps5, ps4, and Xbox games sit on shelves in the media section of a library. A great mix of titles are available.

The bluebird teen's parents are going for nest #2 of the season, but the teen is wondering why the steady supply of hot pockets (bugs) has been cut off 🪶

A juvenile Eastern bluebird sits on top of a wooden nest box, with its mother peeking out the entrance. You can see the spots on the bluebird's back, indicating it's only several weeks old.

Kari Fry@keefry· Jun 27

One of the baby bluebirds from my nestbox visited ME!! 🥹❤️

A bluebird fledgling fits sits on a railing looking very cute. Its tail is shorter than an adult's and some spots can be seen on its back. The photo is of poor quality and taken through a window screen, but the cuteness is undeniable.

Kari Fry@keefry· Jun 23

They have matching head dents!

A chick? and a pig??? foreheads both utterly smashed by an ornery farmer

Kari Fry@keefry· Jun 23

They don't even attempt to make Junimos, which I really appreciate.

Another depressing AI rechurning of my art for the Stardew Valley retail version. There is a little wooden truck with a blue flame coming out of it!!!!!!!!

Another depressing AI rechurning of my art for the Stardew Valley retail version. Presents itself as an official strategy guide! Very bold. A guide to "Conquer the Game and Become an Elite Player" which every Stardew player yearns for.

Looking at more recommendations now. Clearly this is where they harvest the farmer/player characters. The more you look, the more it seems MC Escher inspired

AI slop of a farm surrounded by weird mobile-app-game-lookin-ass women, with planter boxes, with the midground ones cutting into a foreground farmer, who is somehow lifting the reality-defying box. There are two women growing out of planter boxes. One woman in orange looks on in horror. Don't look at the hands on any of them.

Kari Fry@keefry· Jun 23

amaz0n recommended I buy an AI slop version of our Stardew Valley Guidebook clearly made out of a combination of the Cookbook and the retail game cover art? how fun

An AI attempted imitation of the boxart to Stardew Valley mashed up with elements from the cookbook.
A patch of cauliflower poorly morphs into the picnic cloth in the foreground, giving new meaning to Farm to Table. The animals mostly look like abominations. There's a water wheel attached to the silo, like one does. The AI doesn't understand the fish pond and morphed the dock into a... boat? Some of these animals, I truly can't understand what they are (just below the horse... WHAT IS THAT). The mailbox has become a wind sock??? The chicken looks a little angry, just like me.

Stardew Valley Cookbook cover. A picnic of different Stardew Valley foods on a picnic cloth in a field

Stardew Valley cover art for the Switch game, published by Fangamer. It's got a bunch of animals from Stardew Valley and crops, buildings, and an obsessive amount of other in-game things.

Tappy wishes you a happy summer ❤️🐔

A concrete chicken looks upon butterfly weed, a type of milkweed with vibrant orange flowers. Tappy thinks native plants are beautiful.

My nephew is uncomfortable with eating the hole of a donut

A cake donut on a plate. The very edges of the donut have been eaten, but the hole in the middle reminds uneaten.

Would you rather be hugged by 100 chickens or one giant chicken for your birthday

Shane being hugged and held by a giant chicken with the caption HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHANE!!

Kari Fry@keefry· Jun 14

Please join me in wishing happy birthday to @shanestardewvalley.bsky.social the only person with a birthday today 💕

Love seeing this posted in response

Knives Out storyboard sketch. A basic stickfigure drawing of a woman surrounded by crosses which represent knives. The end result of the film is very close to the drawing.

Happy Pride from my feet ✨

The cashier kindly warned me that the Bartolomeo figure smells like cigarette smoke and like, no that's fine, the character looks like he would reek of smoke. So authentic! 🙏🤩✨

One piece Bartholomew's figure box with the text においうつりあり, meaning some smell has transferred to the product

Kari Fry@keefry· May 30

Got some of my favorite One Piece guys! (Didn't find any Bon Clay figs for sale since he's the best, so no one parts with theirs 😎✨)

Four One Piece character figures, all post timeskip. Franky, Bartolomeo, a gear 5 Luffy with baseball gear, and a gear 5 Luffy on top of a cell phone stand

Nice to still feel awe and wonder over a red-eye flight. I watched the sun rise yesterday morning coming home. I think the Artemis astronauts made me more conscious of beauty waiting to be observed.

A view from an airplane, from a seat next to the wing. On the horizon, you can slightly make out the curvature of the earth, with layers of orangey sunrise to white, to blue sky. Below the horizon is a mostly black earth with streetlights indicating a sleeping city.
