My 4yo accompanied me dropping my MIL off at the airport at 5 AM. Still got the job done.
White guy in a grey sweatshirt with a red and blue I Voted sticker gives a big thumbs up for completing his civic duty. In the background are too many fucking Criterions.

Art at the Park
A faded green crayon drawing of the classic “dick and balls,” two circles attached to a long oval cut at the top to form a head, on a grey slab concrete. Advantageously a water bottle leaked towards the tip. Found art, children’s park, Los Angeles

Put some respect on Boston University’s name!!
From a profile of Warner Brothers Discovery CEO David Zaslov in Intelligencer: This has created, in the first year or two of his moguldom, a rearguard action of resentment and resistance within the industry - hence a largely unfriendly narrative (drowned out by chants of "Pay your writers" in a speech he made during the writers strike; hoisted for a critical—”

It gets worse: this fucker skates
The Providence Friar mascot, with its horrifying giant face, skates on the ice at a game, with black boot-like skates, a white, body-length tunic, and black head scarf/cape combo. A stealer of souls.

Two versions of the same Alexah dropped within minutes of each other
An image of a teenage girl sticking out her tongue, wearing a grey tank and a black zip-up hoodie, is the same profile picture for two different bsky accounts in my follower list, named “Alexah” and “Alexandrinaa”

give me a single image from a film that immediately makes you hear the song from the soundtrack in your head.
Max Fisher, wearing a white dining coat and black bow tie, walks out of an elevator holding a carton of bees from the Rushmore Beekeepers club, which he probably founded, in order to prank his friend turned nemesis. The Who’s “A Quick One While He’s Away” would be playing over non-diagetically.

@tomgulittinhl.bsky.social hey TG! I have so many screencaps of Tweets from your Devils days that iPhoto treats you like a member of my family. Welcome!
Six boxes of faces, four are purposefully obscured. In the bottom left is an exceptionally doofy photo of myself, with an expression of “yeah?” And among my loved ones is Tom Gulitti’s photo from his Twitter account circa 2013.

Who’s the next mayor of NYC? Wrong answers only.
2000s-era New York Yankee Luis Sojo is poised to throw a baseball in his right hand during practice in an otherwise empty Yankee Stadium. In front of the blue seats, Luis wears the full navy blue warm-up button up top and the trademark pinstripe pants. His teeth are clenched as if saying “eeereh!”

Got the weed number 😎
I am the 128,420th person to join Bluesky, making me a top 10% poster. Apparently that makes me an elder. I posted through the poster strike.

Tiffany Amber-Thiessen as Kelly Kapowski from Saved the Bell, posed against a light purple background, wearing large, circular earrings and a floral print tank top. She is the early 90s incarnate.

Same as it ever was
Four images from The Simpsons episode “Bart Gets An Elephant” from season 5 episode 17. Top: Stampy the Elephant walks into the Republican convention among cheering throngs with Republicans with banners reading “we want what’s worse for everyone” and “we’re just plain evil.” Bottom: Reverse, as Stampy heads into the Democratic convention to angry people yelling at the stage, with “we hate ourselves” and “we can’t govern!” written on their banners.

A Nobel Prize for the genius who made this
