Is this pizza cutter logical or nah?

Just don't grip the nacelles too hard, right? @rainygay.bsky.social @brandonleblanc.bsky.social #StarTrek

The image is a delightful mix of deliciousness and geek chic. On the left, there's a classic pepperoni pizza, golden-brown and bubbling with cheese—mouthwatering in its simplicity. On the right, resting on a white plate, is a pizza cutter shaped like the USS Enterprise from Star Trek. Its cutting wheel stands in for the spaceship's iconic saucer section, ready to slice through space—or just your next slice.

Verifying here in Turn 1. Well done, sir! Some small blue patches of sky are starting to appear. Light breeze.

Also startled to see this figure glaring upon myself and others this evening in the Square. 😅 #MicrosoftLife #StarWars

As seen at a protest I participated in yesterday here in #Seattle. #SaveNOAA
This photo shows a group of people participating in a protest or demonstration on a city street. The central figure is holding a sign that reads, "SAVE NOAA GET RID OF MUSK." This person is also holding a smartphone, possibly recording or taking a photo of the event. Other protestors in the background are holding various signs, some of which are partially visible. One sign reads "DEPORT BILLIONAIRE ELON MUSK." The scene is set in an urban area with buildings, streetlights, and a hanging plant visible. The weather appears to be overcast, and many participants are dressed in jackets and hats, suggesting it is a cool day. This image captures a moment of public demonstration, highlighting societal and political issues related to NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) and Elon Musk. 📢

Cuuuuute.

How old are they? Did you get them at the same time?

@mrvonsprinkle.bsky.social is petitioning me to get a second cat for our Archie.
The image shows a charming orange tabby cat lounging on a cat tree platform. The cat looks incredibly relaxed, with its head and front paws hanging over the edge of the platform as it gazes directly at the camera. The cat tree features a sisal-wrapped post and a hanging toy, creating a playful environment for the feline. In the background, there's a wooden cabinet with a woven mat on top, a framed picture on the wall, and a couple of potted plants, adding to the cozy indoor atmosphere. The scene is beautifully lit with natural light streaming through large windows on the right side, providing a glimpse of a cityscape outside. The overall composition captures a sense of tranquility and contentment in a sunny, comfortable home setting.

Been a snowy, slushy, yet occasionally sunny couple of days on the Microsoft campus. #MicrosoftLife #wawx
Here's a quick take on the image you uploaded from the Microsoft campus. The photo captures a charming winter scene. Snow partially covers the wet streets, signaling a recent snowfall. Right there at the intersection, a red and yellow RapidRide bus waits at a traffic light, adding a vibrant splash of color. To the left, there's a white building with a parking lot dotted with several cars. On the right side stands a sleek, modern office building with large glass windows. The trees with their bare branches blend in with the partly cloudy sky, giving the scene a classic winter vibe. It's a neat mix of urban infrastructure and the natural elements that characterize the Microsoft campus during winter. Hope that paints a clear picture for you! The image captures a winter scene with two large, leafless wooden sculptures of trees standing on top of a structure made of stacked logs. Snow blankets the ground and surrounding area, creating a peaceful, wintry atmosphere. The sky is partly cloudy, with patches of blue peeking through. The sculptures are prominently displayed on a concrete platform with a pathway leading up to them. There is a small sign on the platform, but the text isn't legible in the image. The overall visual effect is striking, with the natural wooden sculptures contrasting beautifully against the snowy environment. Snowy scene on Microsoft Campus overlooking "Lake Bill", reflecting Bill Gates' history leading Microsoft. The image shows the exterior of a Microsoft building. In the foreground, there's a large Microsoft logo, with the company's name in gray letters and the iconic four-color square logo (red, green, blue, and yellow) to the left. The background features a modern architectural structure with a curved roof and a lattice design, along with several office buildings with glass windows. The ground is covered in snow, indicating a winter setting. This image captures the sleek, contemporary vibe of the Microsoft campus, showcasing its branding and innovative architecture.

As seen near the Federal Building in Downtown #Seattle. #Resist ✊🏼
The photo shows a poster attached to a black surface. The poster has a colorful border with star patterns in red, yellow, green, and black. In the center of the poster, there is an illustration of an eagle with wings spread, perched on top of the U.S. Capitol building. To the left of the eagle, there is a waving American flag, and to the right, there are three arrows and a branch. Below the illustration, the text reads: **"WE WILL NOT RESIGN** **Federal Employees United"**

Over the moon seeing Sound Transit trains operating under power all the way to Downtown #Redmond! Voted yes on Sound Transit 3 back in 2016 and passenger service will begin later this year! 🙌🏼🚉
Elevated Train Station in Downtown Redmond under construction. A Sound Transit train is at the station as they are undergoing operator training on the 2 Line extension.

I hear ya as this dryness could have implications down the road.

My fav winters include long stretches of sunny, clear blue-sky days -- especially if there is snow on the ground.

Looks like we'll enter February with a pattern change. Perhaps even a shot of some of the white stuff!

We've been so incredibly lucky this January in Seattle! Yet another unbelievably beautiful ☀️ filled day. Hope y'all have been enjoying it... Even if it has been a little chilly.

Hosted our team's White Elephant gift exchange yesterday. Had a blast and scored this beauty. What would you name the cat? 🙀
