A close up picture of a white and gray cat’s face. They look somewhat annoyed with the photographer, and the surface they’re laying on is covered in cat hair as if to say this is a favorite spot of theirs.

Precipice by @rob-sheridan.com.
A framed art piece. The piece is heavily defined by vertical lines, looking somewhat like a glitched frame of video. The primary focus is a red streak highlighting a silhouette on the landscape.

Gonna be honest Pillsbury, I don't entirely think this answers the question.
from the Pillsbury Q&A: "How much raw cookie dough is safe to eat?" "Please follow serving recommendations when consuming cookie dough baked or raw."

You know I used to be indifferent on iOS Settings search, but how in the _world_ did this get shipped and no one went “maybe this isn’t entirely what the results should be”.

Before atcute / after atcute. Bluesky comments are great, needing 700kb of packages to do it is not so nice.

Thanks @mary.my.id for it! github.com/mary-ext/atc...

Not allowed to be called out like this 😭
a question asking "what's going on?" with four radio buttons to pick from: - it's annoying or not interesting - I'm in this photo and I don't like it - I think it shouldn't be on Facebook - It's spam

before - after
a car center console. there is a lit up dial shifter and parking brake, and cupholders. the cupholders are not lit, but there is lighting in the floor glowing the same blue as the dial shifter the same cupholder area as image one, except this time lights are visible in the cupholder, indicating where one should put cups

Add in a center thing where conservative media buys into the concept that "blue checks are being sold under the table".
An image meme of a man kneeling by a set of dominos / domino like objects. he is about to knock over the smallest one which will topple larger ones one by one. The smallest domino is labeled "a college roommate getting you a blue check on twitter", the largest domino is labeled "Bluesky being the 'juice'"

a teenager laying on the grass in a backyard or similar. she is looking at an offscreen speaker asking her a question, and she is using an iPad. This is a reference to the Apple iPad commercial "what's a computer"
