Nice. That "rain" is actually from me sobbing with relief.

Canadian friends, if i sent these with a kid, would they have any problem spending them?

I bought a jar of fancy ceramic glaze I've wanted to try. It does this. (Not my pic)

Any of you collect frogs? Any of you collect DERANGED frogs? Have I got a frog for you. #ErynThrifts #TEETH

The same deranged mind that came up with camp pad thai (mine)! Corn roasted in the coals while the water boils for the noodles.

Post barely remembered book covers from your childhood.

Mama Kitty had a seizure tonight right when we were headed to bed. I'm so worried. The emergency vet told us to wait until we could get into our regular vet tomorrow because she was acting normally afterwards. She's had such a hard go of it & just started this chapter, I don't want her to be sick.

This is th endangered pygmy hippos' entire range. They are well suited to captivity & due to their size can be given really appropriate housing & care. There may very well in our lifetime become a time in our lifetime when zoo breeding efforts are the reason the species survives climate destruction

Read this as fun "kids love the fun bear taste"

He said it! He said the thing!

Finished the book with the warm vibrating lump on my knees. That'll cure what ails you.

”Thanks! It's got pockets!”

ICE CREEEEAAAAM! ICE CREAAAMMM!! I GOT SOME ICE CREEEAM, YOU GOT NO ICE CREAM! The first time i hear the ice cream truck in the spring, I make sure to tell them that I have $10 in ice cream money under a magnet on my front door & will come out EVERY time I hear them. COME BY & I WILL COME RUNNIN!

Guess we're both communists then!

Meanwhile, Greece last month:

They include this photo, which, holy shit, what a monumentally stupid thing to use at a crowded turkey hunt for kids. Gee, what could go wrong. (The dad who was using this & got shot is a cop)

I took this pic on a strenuous hike in Glacier National Park weeks before the car wreck that changed my whole life, so it's a big symbol of "before" for me It's also a big symbol of the state of our climate. The haze was from 3 terrible wildfires. That's the shrinking Grinnell Glacier on the right.

Rhubarb day! I really need to divide this plant, because it bolts so early.

wHeRe diD THE FUnDinG gO?

Now that's a cover! I would hang a print of that on my wall. It's a book of short stories, but I didn't buy it because it had mold inside the cover. "I just like how he's always leaning. Against stuff. He leans great."

I don't have a stroller yet, but we do go on a LOT of drives until the heat hits! Two of our girls love car rides & they all love going out in the yard on the leash to eat grass (so they can barf it on the carpet later, yay thanks!)

That time I got my boob ultrasounded & they categorized my boobs under "small parts" 😔 ;)

Snapped pic on the porch to show my mama, but my youngest said "look at this sweet cabinet" at the thrift store today & WHOA. My bonus grandma (neighbor lady who had no grandkids & loved me SO MUCH) had this exact one & I used to store all my tiny treasures in it. Total sense memory when I saw it.

Wanted to cut some English daisies from the yard to press before it rains, but it's so gray out they're still curled up like it's night time. The clover is open, but the daisies are not having it! Pressing bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta) instead, in an experiment to see how they hold up.

Even Ted Cruz, a literal walking talking piece of shit, has used his tattoo against him. Platner was absolutely right in saying what he said here, but Cruz immediately used it as an opportunity to bring up one of Platner's many glaring flaws. This isn't going to go unsaid if he wins the primary.

Here's a GOP blog talking about Platner saying "everybody should watch" the WWII movie Come & See (easy ads if he wins the primary). This is an ACTUAL ex-SS Nazi officer who acted in the movie, totenkopf skull & crossbones clear & in in obvious context. He knew. www.nrsc.org/press-releas...

This is absolutely an accessibility nightmare, but this is going to be my answer for every "without downloading new pics" meme game on here for the rest of time. Get used to seeing it!
