I need to tackle some chores and stop doomscrolling. Here's a midsummer skircle. @skircle.bsky.social
Three concentric circles made of circular profile pics with my own profile pic as the center point of the circles. That is, a lot of circles.

It's like they invented a shiny new product with terrible output but was hawked by all the cool kids. Or like the Pinto. How many explosions will it take to shelve this beast? www.autosafety.org/ford-pinto-f...
Black and white photo of a Pinto. "Keep off my rear, I'm explosive!" is written on the trunk

Smiling man with a short gray beard, glasses, and baseball cap. In front is a scruffy dark gray dog. Behind is a blue sky and a few trees.

The #WarOnChristmas started early this year.
Secretary Sean Duffy @SecDuffy Effective immediately, the Department of Transportation will no longer participate in celebrations based on immutable traits or any other identity-based observances. These distractions do nothing to keep planes in the air, trains on the tracks, or ports and highways secure. In the wake of two devastating plane crashes, my focus is singular: enforcing the highest standards of safety and accountability. From now on, everyday of every month we celebrate transportation, beautiful infrastructure, and safety.

Trigonometry was a totally random try, btw. "poodles d" worked the way I had hoped. I feared the results of "poodles fucking" so didn't test your claim with that. Otoh... 😂

Very weird

Here's my Xmas Eve dinner, in case you were wondering.
Overhead shot. Frame filled with paper plate holding (from 12:00) macaroni salad, fried plantain, brussel sprouts, pastel, collard greens, pernil, mashed potatoes, dinner roll. Some arroz con gandules are in the middle. Fork on the left. Setting is on wood table.

Loved this sliver of moon tonight
Thin crescent moon in a dark gray sky above black silhouette of some trees.

Honoring lives lost and holding up my trans and nonbinary friends on #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance. #TDOR
5 candles: light blue, pink, white, pink, light blue. The words "Transgender Day of Remembrance, November 20" in pink and light blue letters.

Early morning view of Kusadasi, taken from our cruise ship balcony last month. #CruiseLife #Turkey
Landscape photo. At the bottom is a strip of water. A white waterfront is lined with pastel buildings with terracotta roofs. White apartments run up the left side and middle of a low hill. Five flagpoles with Turkish flags stand on the edge of a waterfront, left of center, their tops breaking over the hilltop behind. A few palm trees stand along the waterfront on both sides of the flagpoles. The hilltop rises from left to right, then slopes down. The town name KUSADASI sits on the right side of the hill like the Hollywood sign. There is a pale blue sky with a thin pink streak of a cloud.

#FurryFriendsFriday Here's a howdy from Asher!
Scruffy black dog with a white chest, raising himself with his white sock feet into my stomach. To the right is the edge of a wooden table. Behind the dog is a glimpse of a walker, a plant, a bowl of dog food, and a dog toy.

Hello, Bluesky. First post here is of me and my dog Asher. I'm mainly a lurker and commenter, but maybe I'll post more on this platform. Time will tell.
Close-up pic of a black scruffy dog's face. He's looking to the right. Behind him is a man's head. The man is wearing glasses and a baseball cap. He has thick, dark eyebrows, and his mouth and chin are obscured by the dog.
