So recently a friend of mine sent me the following photo and suggested it was a great idea. I mean, who wouldn't want a tree rex?

I agree, but I had some other ideas as well.

I will not apologize for what is to come next.
Shorter Sarasota Airport: "Don't bring your chemtrail planes around unless you get permission 24 hours in advance."

How many legitimate requests do you think this number will receive in the next two months?

I appreciate the commitment to wearing part of a hollowed out watermelon on your head in sub-freezing temperatures for an entire football game.

Yes, and feeling a little jealous of the people that are impressive enough.
So many Americans looking at our skillsets right now thinking "Am I impressive enough to be braindrained to another country?"

55 years ago today, the Oregon State Highway Division had a whale of a problem on its hands. How it solved it is the stuff of legends.

In other words: Happy Exploding Whale Day!

Oh, lovely.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Can someone tell MSNBC that if they're going to have someone looking at a map and talking about Virginia election results, they need to have someone that understands that Virginia has independent cities?

Hearing their big board guy say "Alexandria County" might be worse than ESPN and "Vah Tech."

Oh, joy, ICE recruitment commercials on The CW during the Louisville-Virginia Tech game again. They haven't been as frequent this time (this is the first one I noticed), but it still makes me feel so gross to see them.

The highs in my life are absolutely wonderful, but the number of days I have to wade through to experience them gets exhausting.

The medications make them tolerable, but I am so, so tired. As I'm looking around and watching where I live become this awful hellscape...it's hard to want to keep going.

Oh, Sedgwick County...this is not a useful text notification. Not even a little.

The reverse 911 call I got was a little more descriptive but the AI voice didn't understand how to read "21st/Tyler" and just said "Twenty one ess tee slash Tyler."

or VT football starting the season winning three straight against ranked LSU, Marshall, and Texas A&M before stumbling down the stretch by losing three straight to Pitt, Syracuse, and West Virginia
always nostalgic about the wrong things too (right thing = Craig Krenzel winning football games with 11/28 stat line and 82 yards passing)
This is doing numbers on social media right now and it's so depressing how people truly yearn for this shit and want to preserve that feeling indefinitely like a mausoleum of false memories.
