Further evidence that this is Lulu's world and the rest of us are just living in it.

Side note: go go Gadget tongue. Like maybe five of you will get this reference and I'm totally okay with that. 😂

This month's experiment for @outsidemag.bsky.social: I spent a night with a team of professional ghost hunters in a condemned rectory. Happy almost-halloween! www.outsideonline.com/culture/essa...

So Slippers didn't win, but I very much appreciate everyone's support (as does my cousin and her students)!

The watch party video is adorable, so I wanted to share: www.youtube.com/live/0rnt_20...

As mentioned, I feel like all of the contestants are winners and ridiculously adorable. ❤️🐄❤️

TYVM!

#UglyDogs if you are so inclined we'd appreciate any support - no pressure, it's a vote (no request for donations) but totally get that some folks don't want to give email addresses.

Appreciate the consideration, contest ends tomorrow. xo
Okay friends, fun & easy way to help my cousin's middle school Ecology Club, if you can: please click the link and vote for Slippers as America's Favorite Calf!

They adopted Slippers to teach the students about the link between the environment & agriculture. TYSM!

Opened my copy of The Day Leap Soared by @blairbraverman.bsky.social & illustrated by @oliviawhen.com and it's even more gorgeous in person.

@honestdogbooks.bsky.social once again made the package feel super special.

The story, about Leap finding what makes her unique? 11/10

Don't forget to vote today if you have an election! We can only do so much as individuals to stop federal fascism but we can vote to keep our local communities against it.

Lulu appears to have recovered fully from the indignity of receiving dinner 42 minutes late last night (thanks, daylight savings time!).

Here she is in her third favorite patch of sunshine.

First favorite? Recliner, sun through skylight. Second? Front storm door.

UPDATE: Lulu and Jimmy ate 18 minutes early because my husband is a big softie and also I suspect he got really tired of Lulu climbing her front paws into his lap and staring directly into his soul.
Lulu would like to speak with someone's manager about fall daylight savings time: she is not a fan.

Jimmy From Kuwait, aka "Boops", is here to wish everyone a happy Monday!

First pic from yesterday, second pic from a little while ago. Play hard, sleep hard, that's his motto. Also yesterday was sunny and today is a bit gloomy, so perfect nap weather!

Something about late afternoon sun shining through vivid autumn leaves just makes my heart happy, especially when it's in our own backyard.

This one almost looked like stained glass to me - I took several photos but this was my favorite by far.

I'm not sure who needs 30 seconds of Jimmy basking among the falling leaves on this sunny, windy autumn day but here you go!

I also have a version in slo-mo, because we're artsy like that. 😂🧡🍂

Hi! Lulu would like whatever that is you're holding just over the camera, tyvm.

Reposted with fewer typos than the original. Probably. I'm not counting any chickens.

Me: "Lulu, why do I bother to make the bed in the morning when you come up here after walkies and meticulously create your own bespoke hound nest?"

FEMA has denied or not advanced most Kerr County aid applications after deadly July 4 flood
Advocates are questioning why so many applicants from the flood-ravaged county have not received federal disaster help. Nonprofits are trying to fill in the gaps.

Indiana University's DEAN OF THE MEDIA SCHOOL fired the faculty advisor of the student newspaper & cancelled print editions.

Today one of their biggest rivals, Purdue, printed the issue that the administration wanted censored and delivered it to the IU campus overnight.

Simply glorious.
