I love it! Thank you for remembering him.

I love this thread. Thank you for sharing.

It’s so hard getting used to life without a good buddy.

Probably. My family believed in margarine.

Good morning. Bad dreams last night.

Peanut butter and jelly mixed together on a plate, forked onto saltines was my comfort food as a kid. We’re talking about crackers we eat, right?

Did they have horseradish in them? I hear that’s the secret.

That brought back a memory.

Making gluten free biscuits.

I’m missing my late husband’s vitriol during these dark times. I received the gift of being the calm one in juxtaposition to his panic. I long for his anger to meet mine over halfway like a pillow with extra comfy neck support.

When your favorite person orders a sheepskin to sleep on in the woods, you gotta try it out for them.

In other end times news…

All siblings with the mama in the shadows.

Just took a photo of 5/6th of our cats looking in the same direction. End times must be upon us.

🤦🏻‍♂️

it is extremely important that we figure out how to get normies to understand that their car sauce got exponsive and toilet paper became a luxury good because trump unilaterally decided canada should be the 51st state, a thing no one asked for and that he cannot make happen even through trade war

Another way to put it: bsky.app/profile/pete...

Well…that’s something? Maybe? *sigh*

How can it be such a beautiful day outside? Oh well, I will take it. Bicycling got me through some rough times in the past. Why not now?

The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits.
We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

Government civil servants threatened with US marshals. Why? Bc they were defending classified information and security systems from being accessed by Musk’s flying monkeys.

Illegal AF.
