I made a thing. Chiefs are frauds :DDDDDD
Meme of a fluffy orange cat pouncing on a grey tabby cat. The orange cat is labeled with "Chargers" with the bolt logo and the grey tabby cat is labeled with "Chiefs" with the Kansas City Chiefs logo.

I’m late to the party, but here is my attempt at a funnel cake #bskyfair

I have a similar issue. Also, why are the only options for meat "cooked to within an inch of its life" and "completely raw"?
The title in the upper left hand corner reads "Food Choice Test" with a subheading "Results:" It shows a circular heat map with five sections labeled upper class, upper middle class, middle class, lower middle class, and lower class. The graph indicates that my food choices are very strongly aligned with the lower class, lower middle class, and middle class.

For your consideration, the Omnisexual flag

I want to scream. Also please let me know if anyone's screen reader is freaking out about the alt text.
A dark mode Twitter screen shot. The original post is from Andrew Yang. The post reads as follows: "If something goes down 10% and then up 10% are you back where you started? No because the decrease is from a bigger number. E.g., 100 - 10 = 90 + 9 = 99". The reply to the post is from Evgeny Kalashnikov and reads as follows "What if you add back 10 because you took away 10. Why are you adding 9 that makes no sense" [Author's note: the error that Eveny is making here is that 10% of 90 is 9, not 10. He is not applying the percent reduction to the correct quantities, a skill he should have learned when he was nine.]

Added alt text for clarity. And yeah, this is stuff that would get Big Balls buried under the jail in most functional countries.
This is a screenshot of a Twitter post. The original post is by Sasha Gustev, who has screenshotted an article. The text of this post reads "the banality of evil". The text from the screenshotted article reads: "Rubio had decreed that certain critical programs - such as aid to Ukraine and Syria and costs related to the PEPFAR program to combat HIV in Africa - would continue to be funded. Several times, USAID managers prepared packages of these payment and got the agency's interim leaders to sign off on them with support from the White House. [the following text is highlighted] But each time, using their new gatekeeping powers and clearly acting on orders from Musk or one of his lieutenants, Farritor and Kliger would veto payments - a process that required them to manually check boxes in the payment system one at a time, the same tedious way you probably pay your bills online [End of highlighted text]. Meanwhile, AIDS clinics shuttered and staff found themselves stranded in unstable countries such as Congo. A pregnant woman in an undisclosed country has sued the Trump administration because she was denied a medevac helicopter. In another case, I was told, an employee in southern Africa who needed chemotherapy was also denied a chopper because no one would authorize the money." This original post was retweeted by Tim Miller. He adds the comment "Big congrats to Little Marco Rubio, the first Secretary of State in history to have his policy edits pocket vetoed by a 19 year old vaper named Big Balls."

Wegmans cold cases. The one labeled eggs is mostly empty. The other cold case is full of a variety of milks.

The background image is of Luke Skywalker and Han Solo from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. They are on Hoth, which is covered in ice and snow. Han is standing on the ground and is bundled up in a fur trimmed black coat with white gloves. He also has white ski goggles. Luke has mounted a tauntaun in light grey pants, a white jacket, olive vest, white gloves, and white ski goggles. The tuantaun looks like a cross between a chicken and a horse with a goat head. The tauntaun in the picture appears to be at least two feet taller than Han Solo. The text on the image reads "Going to Wegmans... Need anything?". Wegmans is a regional chain of grocery stores in the north eastern united states, but is headquarted in Rochester NY.

Oof meme. On the left side of the image, an older mustachioed man has his lips pulled together so they look like he is making the "oo" sound. His eyes are closed. On the right side of the image, there is a picture of a dryer control knob with three positions labeled "Small", "Medium", and "Large". The knob is labeled with "OOF SIZE" and is in the "Large" position.

The principle image is of a yellow star with a black outline. The outline is shadowed into the center of the star. The star has a burdened, pained expression with the mouth slightly upturned and eyebrows pointed up but hugging the apex of the eyes. The eyes are outlined in black with white sclera present, black irises, and white pupils. The eyes are pointed directly at the viewer. The eyes are shadowed in a reddish brown color, almost as if the star has been crying recently and is attempting to disguise it from the viewer. The black text at the top of the image reads "The Hanging In There Star". The image at the bottom of the text reads "Post this star to let your buddies know you're hanging in there but you could lose it at any moment".

It took forever but it's finally finished.
An off white crochet blanket that is about 3 foot by 5 foot. There are six green and brown horizontal stripes. There are fifteen red apples affixed to the blanket in three strips, about half are red and half look like half an apple. All of the apples have a green leaf and stem attached.

Marigold was so frustrated that she could not get into the oven to get the chicken thighs I was making.
A medium haired orange tabby cat sniffing at the oven door of a free standing gas range. A white but stained trash can can also be seen in the picture.

This is the recipe I use. The sponge is not particularly sweet to my taste, but I usually make this with grape jelly, so it prevents the cake from being sickly sweet.
An image of a Jelly Roll Recipe taken from "The Joy of Cooking" Cookbook, 1984 edition. Jelly Roll A 10 1/2 by 15 1/2 by 1-inch Pan This standard roll cake, or jelly roll, recipe also bakes well in two 8-inch round layer pans. to prepare pan, bake and roll, see About Roll Cakes, above. Have all ingredients at about 70 degrees Preheat oven to 375 degrees Sift: 3/4 cup of sugar beat until light: 4 egg yolks Add the sugar gradually. Beat until creamy. Add: 1 teaspoon of vanilla Sift before measuring: 3/4 cup cake flour Resift with: 3/4 teaspoon double-acting baking powder [Note this is the standard baking powder available in stores now in the United States] 1/2 teaspoon salt Add the flour gradually to the egg mixture. Beat the batter until smooth. Whip -> until stiff but not dry: 4 egg whites [I do this before anything else for ease of clean up. If any yolk gets into the egg whites, you cannot get stiff peaks] fold them lightly into the cake batter. You may add: (1/2 cup finely chopped nuts) [I have never attempted to add nuts to this recipe and do not know if the recipe turns out with them] Bake about 12 minutes. When cold, spread with at least: 1/2 cup jelly or tart jam or 1 cup or more cream or custard filling, 697 [refers to page 697] or for unusual touch, try: Ginger Fruit Filling, 698 [refers to page 698]

I think that the distribution is more like a Rayleigh distribution. There is a huge number of people who read at a second grade level, but there are very few adults who cannot read anything in any language.
This is a plot of a specific Weibull distribution called a Rayleigh distribution. The graph is a blue line on a white background that looks like a bell curve that got smooshed to the left. The left axis is labeled "Density" and goes from 0 to .2 in increments of .05. The bottom axis is labeled "X" (chi) and goes from 0 to 10 in increments of 2. The graph is inset in a light grey frame. The graph is entitled "Weibull Distribution Plot" with the subtitle "Shape = 2, Scale = 4, Threshold = 0"
