This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

The Trump administration plans to allow new oil and gas drilling off California’s coast for the first time in decades. Almost no new fossil fuel development has occurred since the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill, a disaster that killed thousands of birds and damaged fisheries.

Designing a menu that highlights its "great value family-oriented sandwiches".
$32 for a pulled pork?
"Comes with a complimentary pickle."

For $32, it better come with a complimentary erotic foot massage, while eat it.

The UPS girl stopped by... not to deliver anything... but just to give Edgar loves and a treat.

Now I have to lecture him that he's not goddamn special.

SOME dog... and I won't name names... stole a habanero bean breakfast burrito off the coffee table.

Now it's a waiting game.

If you evade suffering you also evade the chance of joy. Pleasure you may get, or pleasures, but you will not be fulfilled. You will not know what it is to come home.

Head hurts.
Back hurts.
Hips hurt.
Knees hurt.

But otherwise...

Took the dog out to pee.
He lifted his leg on a rose bush...
a quail burst out from under his stream,
flew up and crashed into my face,
really annoyed and covered in canine urine.
Me too.
Edgar ran off yelping and howling,
until his 20ft leash pulled me over onto my back.

Happy goddamn Tuesday.

The people showed up in the streets for "No Kings."

They did their part.

The people showed up at the polls on Tuesday.

They did their part.

8 Democrats in the Senate surrendered last night.

They did not do their part.

The times they are a-changing! - If you had told me 10 yrs ago that we'll get this face on a Danish banknote, I probably wouldn't have believed you. The inuit woman Arnarulunnguaq was a vital member in the Thule expedition that traverssed 18000 km from Greenland to Alaska on dog sleigh.
