I had dinner with the ex-husband and he was wearing one of the new Disapproving Rabbits shirts.To my surprise I got a notification of $343 from Red Bubble deposited my account—just a little over a week from putting up the merch that I can send to The Bond Between.

It says a lot that the folks who really love the old terribly designed colonialist Minnesota flag are out calling ICE unAmerican.

When your out of state friend checks on you and voice to text ignores your heartfelt gratitude and instead focuses on a conversation you are having with your dog when she’s dancing at you.
Image of a bunch of text between two people. One person is trying to offer support from out of state. The other person sends a garbled message about a dog being adorable and being a good girl and needing time on the couch and a treat. The out-of-state person responds that it’s fucking adorable.

This is just inside the door of my locked office building. Because pepper spray is being deployed without care for what’s nearby and mostly because an ice agent doesn’t like the sound of a whistle. Call your elected officials. You do not want federal occupation in your city.

I was trying to explain to my husband the other night how the Gar Guy - a scientist who posts exuberantly and almost exclusively about his study fish - is now posting about ICE alerts and how this indicates both the level of danger we're in and the confidence we should have in our fellow Americans.

This is where we gar in Minnesota.

I always have a little gar figurine in the vest pocket of my fleece, but was recently given a whistle (ICE alert) that now goes alongside the gar. 1/3

Halloween costume ideas for birders.
A comic called halloween costume ideas for birders. In panel 1, labeled easy, there's a person labeled northern cardinal wearing a party hat, a beak, and red clothes, and a person labeled roseate spoonbill wearing pink clothes and a wooden spoon on their nose. In panel 2, labeled harder, there's a person labeled merlin sound ID wearing a big green circle with a microphone modeled after the button on the merlin sound ID app, and a person labeled hybrid green x blue jay wearing a complex costume with a mask and robe and hat modeled after a recently discovered hybrid bird. In panel 3, labeled challenging, there's a person labeled baltimore oriole nest wearing an enormous accurate woven oriole nest suspended from their arms and shoulders, and a person labeled african jacana carrying chicks with a hideous costume of long-toed bird feet hanging from their armpits. In panel 4, labeled hot, there's a person labeled high quality spotting scope who is shirtless and is wearing a spotting scope mask on their head, and a person labeled sexy owl pellet wearing an owl pellet top and bottom with a mouse skull on their head.

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.
A brown donut in a box with other donuts. The donuts has 8 radial fissures that make it resemble a human anus.
