I'm super excited to share that I am part of the October lineup for Mary Jo Pehl's Garage for the Performing Arts on October 18 at 6 pm talking about why moose are the worst.

Tickets are $5 and you must email Mary Jo to reserve a spot. mjopehl@gmail.com

The University of Glasgow groundspeople are going to be quite annoyed when they come in to work tomorrow...

Thanks, Hallmark Channel, I hate it. Of course it’s a guy introducing a woman to birding 🙄 Also he wants to be a bird guide and he’s using porro prism binos?? he doesn’t have a real neck strap? Or even a harness for that matter? Where the hell is his spotting scope?

PSA the donut from Dunkin that looks like a butthole is pumpkin. Important for people who love and also people who hate pumpkin spice season.

That face your dog makes when you say, “Babe, this is us!” And start singing along to Die with a Smile at them. #HuskySideEye

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

Came home to find my screen ripped, glasses and cups on the floor, lamps unplugged, remotes everywhere and my tv on. I suspect a squirrel was on my deck and a merry chase ensued. Party is the sword in the darkness, the watcher on the deck. She is the shield that guards the realms of Shaz.

Looks like I will be zooming into the Twin Cities Fox station at 3:30 PM to talk about turkeys and cobra chickens. Also photo of Party for tax.

I have done the exact same thing.
My partner & I were trying to ID a bird we heard while walking and the guy who had stopped his car to let us pass got out and was like "it's a frog, actually. Cope's Gray. I do frog surveys... Sorry" And then got in his car without a word and drove off. Absolute king

This is so stupid. But also knowing the general public at least 50% of the write ins are just going to be the word “Poop.”

943 days ago I launched the swift brick campaign. The amendment has been re tabled to The Planning&Infrastructure Bill. Ask your MP to vote yes regardless of what their whip tells them. Email angela.rayner.mp@parliament.uk saying MANDATE SWIFT BRICKS & put it in the subject.

Overheard a mortician in a South Dakota hotel bar say to someone who asked he did his grandmother, “I was in treatment then…not for alcohol.”

OK a dog can take a pill once a month that will kill a tick that bites them AND get a Lyme vaccine but I can’t?

Consider considering the number of people that I have told on dating apps that I won’t pee on them, I’m remarkably OK with a sled dog just staring at me while I peed for the rest of my life.
