@ScottSoCal the coffee was single origin. I think it was the coffee.

I've been waiting for whoever would drop that idiotic chestnut, that indicting Trump would divide the country.

Surprise! A member of our corporate media shouts it in question form at Biden

Gotta keep the elites safe y'all! 🤣😂

A year ago, egg producer Cal-Maine pocketed $39.5 million in quarterly profit. This time around it was $323 million, a 718% increase.

But I thought all those expensive eggs were inflation and bird flu? https://ktla.com/news/money-smart/egg-producer-reports-718-increase-in-profit/

Truth be told I do sometimes use big words that I don't fully understand just to make myself sound cleverer and more ambidextrous.

"I've always felt like I don't fit," the young woman said.
"Fit where?" the witch said.
"In..." The young person gestured at their whole body. "Can you ..?"
"I can't make you fit what you have. I can make what you have fit you."
"Really?"
"It worked for me."
The young man smiled.

Just a reminder that "I identify as..." jokes are inherently dismissive of a real issue. Like "politically correct" and what has become of "woke", they are designed to push opinion that the root issue being mocked is not a real concern or something to be taken seriously.

Don't use these jokes.

Having doubled the alliance's border with Russia, I finally feel I've earned this.

My sister’s Soros backed leftist ANTIFA dog just knocked my coffee off the table with its radical agenda tail.

From @owillis

“Trump is the corrupt criminal racist the right has rallied behind and continues to support. There is no better reflection of the conservative movement’s perverse core than the elevated role of Donald J. Trump within its ranks.”

Party crasher.

You can't see it in the photo, but this house sparrow was hanging with a bunch of red-winged blackbirds a couple months ago. This morning when I started to process this photo, I thought one of the blackbirds was in the upper right-hand corner. But after looking closer, discovered it was yet another interloper - a brown-headed cowbird. I cropped it out.

The get away.

I made a deliberated attempt to get a picture of this red bellied woodpecker leaving the bird feeder and still messed it up. I had him at the feeder, but he flew out of focus almost immediately. I attempted to sharpen it with both Topez Sharpen AI and Focus Magic. My minds eye gave Sharpen the edge, but I'm still not satisfied.

Anyhow, the bird found a peanut and you can almost track his path by the debris still falling in his wake.

If I could get Brian Eno to write some music, maybe ‘Music for dogs in slowly falling snow’ I’d have a winner with these two. #SproutTheBerner #teamclover #dogsofmastodon #dogs #snow
