Episode 45 of Kīlauea’s ongoing eruption

Irregular reminder: Doomerism is functionally identical to Denialism

Cynicism & despair aren’t a tribute to rationality; they’re failure of imagination & resilience. Making things less bad is more important than achieving perfection. Any start is better than none.

Hope & Joy are essential activism

S-- something in my eye, that's all. Also, luchadores just keep finding new ways to be cool

Hey kids,who wants a plate of freshly made disappointment?

Somebody posted this on a Discord server I frequent. Possibly the most Edwardian feline gentleman I have ever seen.

They can eat entire jack-o'lanterns and boxes of herbal tea we didn't like, box and all. I hope they don't unionize

Photo of a 5 gallon bucket filled with finely textured dark brown compost. A lot of tan composed eggshell fragments are visible too

I have a 55 gallon composter where zillions of microbes, molds, fungi, worms and arthropods galore all work together to turn discarded coffee grounds, eggshells, rotten fruit, dead leaves etc. etc. into this lovely black gold. My compost emplyees and I should be tax exempt, is what I'm saying 💩🪱🦠🪰🪳🌱

Photo of some dark gray cargo pants that covert into cargo shorts if you unzip the lower legs. They're not nearly as tacky as the concept implies

Shorts are verboten at my office. Jeans are allowed, but I find them hot, heavy and ill-fitting. Enter: convertible cargo pants! My joke idea of removable pant legs is somehow real! At Costco! I laughed so hard I bought two pairs. I am THE demographic for this ridiculous apparel

Oh dang! That's one of the best or maybe worst of one or more of those that I've seen or never seen, today or ever!

The Onion wants to make us submissive slaves to the New world order.

Correct.

I will post garden photographs later. Apparently, @bsky.app is shitting itself again and cannot host a simple photograph atm. I realize we do not pay to be here, nor do we have to suffer ads. For which i'm extremely grateful! So I am going to bite my tongue and wait out this latest kerfuffle

Gotta look past Gargamel's sour disposition. He may have had severe chronic pain, social anxiety or even addiction issues--WE don't know. Wanting to eat the Smurfs just tells me he knew something we didn't, like they taste *amazing*. Or at least as good as marshmallow peeps

Our last machine left to climb Mt. Everest, maybe "find themselves" for a few years. Ironically it froze to death

Three panel comic. Panel 1: person who has post-op bandages wrapped around their nose, nervously holding someone’s hand. Another speaker off panel says, “alright… let’s get these bandages off.” Panel 2: the person is gleefully looking at themself in a handheld mirror, their friends are overjoyed. Their new nose is a gigantic, elongated and pointed sword shape. Panel 3: they are jumping out of the ocean with a smile on their face, in unison with two swordfish who are also breaching the water.

A messy crew! But their puff-chested antics and that gorgeous blue iridescence make up for it all

Crebain from Dunland! Or, as we call them at my house, Crackles

people who say this act like if they weren't at the airport they'd be at home curing cancer. what exactly are your big plans for your extra 45 minutes at home you fuckin loser

I want a jean jacket that lets you have the "levitate and fly at will" dream--but real!

An I'iwi (small vermillion honeycreeper) with black wings and a long curved beak sipping nectar from 'iliahi blossoms, which are dark red on the outside and bright white when opened

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #ComeEatWithMe , and for a nectivore this is what predation looks like LOL. :) I'iwi on 'illiahi, Haleakala National Park 🌿🦉📷

Photo of flowering azalea near a large brick home. It's about a meter tall and wide and covered head to toe with stunning purple spring blooms

[Prince] Puuuuurrple bush... puuurrple bush...

An amazing azalea (amazlea?) on our standard dog walk. Every flowering shrub should aspire to this 🌺🌺🌺

Screenshot from Witcher 3, showing Geralt visiting one of the merchants in Crow's Perch. The big buff bare chested gentleman, though covered in grime and blood, is politely offering Geralt various foods, noting, "me larder's not exactly butstin', but what I got is sure to please."

Happy 4/20! Make sure your dealer, whether humble or high society, is reliable and worth your business. Oh and please pick me up some dry curd if you go

Photo of a 10 ounce glass filled with fresh squeezed pinapple juice. It's a luscious translucent beer-like dark yellow and backlit by morning sun.

Discovered this killer artisanal micro-brewed seasonal exclusive hopsmaxxing IPA that, by showing it, implies I'm part of an edgy, privileged drinker elite.

It's called "100% freshly squeezed pinapple juice" made with my El Cleapo juice machine. And it's grand 🍍

Do it! Do a swear! Be a mother flipping sun of a birch, tell those asp poles to shovel it

Competitor: Egads! Not only are they "the best," but pure to boot! And endorsed by Mr. Quaker himself, that indefatigable paragon of wholesome nourishment! Gentlemen? We are sunk. Let us telegraph them immediately and see if they wish to purchase our entire company at a most splendid discount!

I’m not proud of it but if Forrest Gump started talking to me on a bench I’d have left

Aww... RIP, Alexander. And thank you too. I feel like a personal friend has passed away, his Zoltan was so awesome and real 💔
