This is Nepeta basking in the sunlight. It's really the best thing to do in sunlight, I gather. 😁

This is not a Mini-Wheat. There is absolutely nothing "mini" about this. This is just a Wheat. Or maybe just some kind of Frankenwheat.

We flirted with this sort of thing a few years ago here in Canada with our Kraft Dinner (same thing, different name) with such experiments as Cotton Candy and Poutine. At best, it "got in your mouth". I'm quietly hopeful yours is better than that.

You mean Tim Curry, the guy who voiced Mastermind and sang all of the songs in Scooby Doo: Night of 100 Frights for the PS2?

I got one of these once when I was 8. Almost put me off of beer for life. If you're gonna give a kid a beer, the least you could do is give him something decent like a Labatt 50 (hey it was 1984; not like we had a thousand options back then like we do now).

I had this issue; my dental hygienist suggested I look into HiSmile toothpastes because they have proper fluoride amounts (unlike the kids ones I was using) and let me tell you, they're phenomenal! We bought five amazing flavours and we'll happily keep buying from them!

Whelan's work is absolutely mind-blowing and he's a great guy, too. Have a print of his hanging up in the living room!

Would you be interested in my alien pirate troll OC, Felida Oceleo? Probably my most popular character in my fics; I'm sure lots of folks would love to see your take on her? Her horns resemble lynx ears if that helps? Blind eye under the scar. Thanks and look forward to seeing all your new art!

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?
I'll very likely be saved but the odds are good I'll be covered in blood or worse in the process. Or possibly cursed. I'm okay with this.

So the Cineplex theatres in Regina have been running Fire-and-Brimstone evangelical junk as an ad before movies. Miss me with that shit, Cineplex. I took the time to let them know I wasn't happy and I suggest others who don't want to see religious indoctrination do the same so they know it's not ok.

My cousin is a big McCartney guy. I don't troll often but I took some pleasure in telling him, "Dude, all of the good Beatles are dead." This song is why I say that. I make a point of trying to get through every Xmas season without hearing it. I'm still good so far this year. 🤞

@beth.bsky.social Have you seen this? Odd that they're trying this in winter when a lot of us aren't looking at it. Smells like an attempt at cuts. Basically, MSC is considering ending the FOCN45 CWWG bulletins which are incredibly useful. I'm sending an email; pls pass it on to other weather folks!

My tribute to one hell of a good man, Neil Peart. Closest thing I think I've ever come to something resembling "Art".

Rush, R40, Calgary in 2015. A reverse chronological concert as the stage changed to reflect their earlier shows throughout the concert, culminating with songs from their first album on a stage that looked like a high school gym. Absolutely brilliant.

I'm probably gonna get blowback for this one but I *LIKE* Ram. There's a big dollop of a Wednesday Addams type in her: sharp tongue, sharper wit but a surprising amount of heart deep inside. No idea why there are a bunch of figurines of her smiling/cutesy?

Hope you don't mind a feathery one in the mix. We recently lost our Nahla (black, left) so I know where you're coming from. There are some hard days ahead but there will be some filled with joyful memories in time, too. Condolences to you and yours; we think of your friend today, friend.

BEHOLD!!! Our newest addition to the front step horrors (along with the zombie flamingo and squirrel), thanks to my lovely wife Kat's sheer will and determination to get her Beholder pumpkin finished before this evening!
