After a long day and some successful kid trick or treating, I am tucked up into bed with some hot peppermint tea and honey and there’s just not a lot better, I think.
The image shows a wet Washington State night with golden leaves strewn on the dark wet pavement and five figures are in the shot, bravely soldiering on towards candy: an overstimulated Patrick Star, an orange octopus, a shark dad, a wee ghostie and a damp other dad in an orange jacket with the hood up wearing a wet gray backpack. Oh, and way in the front are the ears of a were-housecat who has an extremely complex backstory that I cannot recall now. Not pictured: the helpful teen and two moms! What you should take from this description is that it was raining and cold but fun! A well-earned rest for all!

Reporting from the Hellmouth of the PNW
On the left hand side of the image a round-faced white woman wearing a black dress with brown hair and blue glasses smiles mildly into the camera. Behind her is Portland, OR at sunset. There is a good number of buildings of various sizes/heights. There is a lot of white and pink brick and green trees. Soooooo dangerous. (Not)

It’s like when people say Portland, OR is a hellhole. This Portland???
The skyline of Portland, Oregon at the end of the day, right before the sun really started to set the day before Mother’s Day 2025. At the bottom is a highway on-ramp and beyond it is green trees, pretty buildings and one of the famous bridges of Bridgetown (specifically the Hawthorn Bridge) and above it all a beautiful sky with thin clouds trying and failing to cover the sun shining some of its last rays of the day. Not what I’d call a hellhole.

I guess what goes around comes around.
Text that reads “I can’t stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made up new age term, and it does a lot of damage. -Charlie Kirk” is superimposed over an image of the now deceased Charlie Kirk wearing a blue suit jacket and holding a microphone up to his gaping maw. Editorially, I would imagine his smug face was saying something fucked up in the extreme.

Photographic evidence!
A bright blue sky with tree branches reaching towards the center of the photo on the upper left and top of the image. An improbable angle achieved by slipping and falling on my ass A white woman’s leg. Her knee is pink and has a couple small abrasions. A souvenir from falling on her ass. THANKS MURDER PANTS.

Without downloading any new pics, describe your gender.
A photoshopped cover of a Nancy Drew book now titled “The Mysterious Night We Buried Our Last Fuck” and the image has three 1950’s styled young white women burying the word fuck in the dead of night outside a creepy mansion.

Summertime kid things
Beneath a pile of brightly colored stuffies (pokémon, Bluey, an octopus and a Pusheen neck pillow to be precise) the left eye of a blue bespectacled white woman peeks out with a resigned yet slightly panicked expression.

I’m on cup number two!
A sturdy 16oz white mug with blue lettering that says “Allann Bros Coffee a family tradition since 1972” with delicate line drawings of coffee plants with berries and in bloom around the words sits on a pink blanket background as the morning sun shines on it all. Some shadows from my blinds and bed frame are also present.

Sixteen years and this much sushi with my favorite parent, partner and cutie patootie extraordinaire!
Two stacks of small plates on a black table that held some yummy sushi and delicious cut strawberries!

Reposted with alt text
The Associated Press (AP) Reports: Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump's executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon AP's reporter was blocked from attending an executive order signing. It is alarming that the Trump administration would punish AP for its independent journalism. Limiting our access to the Oval Office based on the content of AP's speech not only severely impedes the public's access to independent news, it plainly violates the First Amendment.

Without downloading any new pictures, where are you at, mentally?
An image within an image of a gray shirt that says in script “don’t worry” and in block letters “be happy” but the way it is formatted on the shirt it looks like it just says “don’t be happy worry” and the text above the image of the shirt reads “‘don’t be happy, worry’ is my personal motto, honestly” which is for sure how I’m doing.

Well. There it is. Fucking ominous.
A screenshot of the tiktok app that says “Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now. A law banning TikTok has been enacted the U.S. U fortunately that means you can’t use TikTok for now. We are fortunate that President Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office. Please stay tuned!” and then two buttons underneath that say “Learn More” to the left snd “Close App” to the right.

Blue-gloved hands holding a young beaver with text above saying “beavers are so funny why are you a little animal doing hydraulic engineering” Text above says “The perfect wrapping paper doesn’t exi…” and the image below is of a package wrapped in paper with Boromir’s face and text “it is a gift” repeating forever. Image is of an embroidery hoop with large words “THIS IS FINE” made up of a bunch of the word “fuck” repeating. Text under image reads “Finished a new piece. I think it speaks to my state of mind. Notice the fine details :)” A line drawing of a snuggled up big dog with handwritten text “i’m not a really big dog look ‘folds for easy storage’”

Two of my faves!
A scene from Bluey where Grandpa Bob tells kid-version Bandit, Stripe and Rad “You know what I call one dead health insurance CEO? I call it a good start!” as he digs for clams at the beach A group of black clad happy-looking people gathered around a fresh grave pointing and posing for the camera. Superimposed on the happy people it says “Everyone that has had a claim denied” and on the gravestone it says “Brian Thompson CEO of United Healthcare”

Reskeet with a childhood favorite book!

I had many, many favorite books as a kid, but if pressed to name only one, it will always have to be Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine.
The 1997 cover of Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine featuring a seated young white girl in a green dress on an orange-y background and a silver Newberry Honor medal affixed to it.

Casual evening with the babe
A blurry photo of a woman with glasses she clearly has a small human inside her shirt, and the small human has a hand on her face. Very cozy
