Frankie has a long rope toy that he flings around and we call it Baby Elephant. I must get a video of him doing it sometime.

Alt: a baby elephant is standing in the grass with other elephants behind it. The baby is flinging around their trunk willy nilly. They don't know that thing works

It’s hardly the most important thing, but among the reason these guys belong in an oubliette is saying shit like “my houseman”

one of my favorite things is to be in a quiet room at a loud gathering and just listening to the chatter in the other room

My brother and sister-in-law are going to Paris to visit her brother, nieces and nephews. Would anyone like to guess what the kids want them to bring from America?

Turns out I'm not good at cooking with coconut milk
1st Googled "substitute for coconut milk" Didn't like those options so texted my husband to get some on his way home.
2nd Googled how long does it take to reduce coconut milk?
And finally Googled can I pour coconut milk down the sink? (no)

Otis sits at the edge of the deck, enjoying a crisp fall morning and contemplating life.

He's mostly blind and he loves to feel the sunshine on his face.

There is no seeing the election results on Tuesday and Dems caving anyway than just straight up malice. Period. They should know no more peace for the rest of their lives because they are just as rotten and fascist as the rest of em.

I remember watching this at my grandma's house. I was 16 years old and I LOVED David Letterman. When he kissed Julia Roberts, I had such an overwhelming, visceral pang of jealousy that I ran to the bathroom to cry.

can’t stop thinking abt my colleague trying to help a patron on the computer, directing them repeatedly to something on the right of the screen, only for them to finally be like “(annoyed) oh, you mean OUR right” as if there was a standard “stage right” situation on desktop PCs

The question is whether this behavior violates the spirit and the muffuletta of the law.
“This case, ladies and gentleman of the jury, is about a sandwich.”

Closing arguments from the defense in the DC sandwich guy case are now underway.
