Why does that man's hair look like the matted feathers on a freshly hatched baby chicken?

I scrolled through the thread and saw "kid," "chick," and "honey." Whoboy, that was a quick block.

Join us as we celebrate the life and career of the late Robert Duvall with a special programming tribute.

We kick off our evening with TENDER MERCIES ('83), the film for which he was awarded the Academy Award for Best Actor.

4 baseball cards on a black background

Ok, last #MailDay for a little bit (unless a really good deal jumps out at me). I really like that Black Foil McCray rookie. #SFGiants #CardSky

Paying taxes is great, actually, I love having roads and public services and programs that allow my neighbors to buy groceries. It’s too bad that Republicans steal these funds and send them to countries committing genocide and private companies with sweetheart contracts.

Welp. So much for ever going to Walt Disney World for me.

I LOVE when baseball announcers start trying to explain things by using golf analogies.

"The Little Mermaid" soundtrack was the first CD I ever purchased (along with Naught By Nature's "19 Naught III") and even though it's not my favorite, it's still the standard bearer for Disney films & has held up better than "The Lion King." My vote goes to the fish.

And it’s been raining since I woke up this morning.

Senator mocked ‘green energy crap.’ His house runs on it. Montana Republican Tim Sheehy voted to scrap solar tax credits after installing panels and battery storage at his Bozeman home.

The way I'd go around smacking people on the head--for science--if I had the money laying around.

When Pavs talks about him on "Giants Talk," he always mentions that Josuar gets compared to Francisco Lindor. Every comparison just makes me go "Yeah, ok. That wouldn't suck."

I talked about these DJT-centric semiquincentennial trademarks and national identity this evening.

Really wish this weather would make up its mind.

That 5x lens comes in very handy and the Safari Park is why I stick to the Pro iPhone models.

An adult giraffe with two baby giraffes, one is sitting behind a rock

Quick trip up the Safari Park to check out the new Elephant Valley. A lot of other people had the same idea today, so here’s a picture of the one elephant I was able to get, plus a few other animals as seen from the tram. @sandiegozoo.bsky.social

happy international women's day

A sign at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. It has white text on a green background that reads: San Diego Zoo Safari Park Sensory Inclusive Location For some individuals, going places can be overwhelming due to sensory overload. A sensory inclusive location via staff training, provision of sensory bags, and other simple modifications helps create an accepting and inclusive environment for everyone. www.kulturecity.org

You’re welcome!
