They already have at least one end-credits disclaimer about the gods
A photo of the end credits from an episode of Xena, including the comedic disclaimer “No Unrelenting or Severely Punishing Deities were harmed during the production of this motion picture.”

BUSCH! SCHMIDT! GETTELMAN!

(a legit row of brands on my vintage beer can purse)

(I have never gotten over the fact that they’re snowmobiling on the Schmidt can. Don’t drink and drive, even if your beer suggests it!)
Close up of three metal squares from vintage beer cans with holes punched around the edges to enable rough blue yarn to attach them to each other and other squares that form the outer shell of a rectangular purse. Each square features the brand name of a beer. Left: Busch Bavarian Beer, product of USA, in a circle with a stamped-style illustration of pine trees in winter. Center: Schmidt Beer, with two people in winter outerwear and (amazingly) helmets, riding together on a snowmobile. Right: Gettelman Beer, “Since 1854”, “Brewed in the True Milwaukee Tradition”.

The group chat was on topping ideas for mac & cheese. @babelglyph.bsky.social: “Anything that goes with cheese, so…everything. I don’t know if I’d do fruit myself though.” Suddenly I had a bowl of white cheddar shells with dried cranberries, and it was good! Chili flakes added good zing.
A bowl of white cheddar macaroni shells with a handful of dried cranberries mixed in. A hand on the right edge of the bowl is using a dinner spoon, poised to scoop up the next bite. There are no chili flakes on it yet, but no photos were taken after figuring out how good it was with them added.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy
Text on solid background says “Them: you’re really going to die for drag queens and queer folks?” Picture of Bajoran Major Kira from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine holding a phaser rifle threateningly at someone out of frame, overlaid with the text “Someone is”

I don’t know what I hate more: if marketers failed to consider that people subscribed to beige meal-replacement shakes might be the wrong market for “real food” dog food, or if the marketers aren’t wrong. (Disclaimer: It’s not my Huel and I don’t have a dog.)
A case of 12 bottles of vanilla Huel, just behind a large postcard ad from The Farmer’s Dog stating “Dog food should be food. Not burnt brown balls.”

Tiggy missed the Zoom but is also working today and sends his regards to Tigey 🐯💻
A well-loved stuffed tiger with matted fur and floppy limbs sits with one paw on the touchpad of a laptop, face resting slightly on that arm. The laptop has a code editor open, showing the HTML for a single page exercise in CSS.

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?
Voting screen for a prompt from the game Quiplash 2. The question at the top is “Why is life so hard?” and the two possible answers are “cishetero white patriarchy” or “we are stuck here because of ass holes”.

A picture that has my energy but not a selfie
The “pun husky” picture: a grey-and-white husky lying on a white blanket with a grey stuffed toy between its feet. The dog has its ears alert, eyes wide, and mouth open, with tongue held back inside the teeth, so it appears to be grinning and laughing at something like a human might. There is no text on the image; this is the base image for the pun husky meme.

Reskeet with your favorite meme you’ve ever made
A screen grab from the 1992 movie “Sneakers” where Liz (Mary McDonnell) side eyes Martin “Bish” Bishop (Robert Redford) for talking during a lecture. Text added to the image says “BISH PLEASE”.)
