Today’s plan: see some cool sea creatures, and be the hot dad at the aquarium

Hey, sometimes the upcharge is worth it. 😘
The image features a man wearing a red tank top with a playful design. The top prominently displays the phrase "I'M EXTRA LIKE GUAC" in bold white letters, accompanied by a cartoon avocado character with a cheerful expression and raised arms. The background is softly blurred, showing a room with a green wall and a window, suggesting an indoor setting. The man's casual pose and expression add to the lighthearted and humorous theme of the shirt.

It was 80°F (and sunny, but it's basically always sunny in Phoenix) this afternoon so I took a walk before dramatically trimming back the beard. Felt like a bit of a reset was in order.
The image features a man with short, light-colored hair and a light beard, smiling directly at the camera. He is wearing a red tank top with the text "I'M EXTRA LIKE GUAC" printed in bold white letters. He is reclining on a dark-colored couch, with his left arm resting behind him. The background is a plain, neutral-toned wall, creating a simple and relaxed setting that emphasizes the subject.

Time to start a new week. #MonochromeMonday #mcm

if you see this, repost with a game from the year you were born
This image depicts a scene from The Legend of Zelda for Nintendo Entertainment System, featuring a character in green armor wielding a sword, positioned on a sandy terrain bordered by dense green foliage. The character is engaged in combat with several small enemies. Above the action, the game's HUD displays essential information: an empty map area, weapon icons for a boomerang and sword, and three heart icons indicating the player's remaining life. The pixelated art style and retro elements are characteristic of early video game graphics.

Me for the next two days. (At least the Tension Tour live album is out tomorrow for a work day dance party.)

I get so much use from this screenshot of a tweet. (Work was dumb today but none of it is my fault.)
The image is a screenshot of a tweet from the verified account of Rihanna, posted on May 18, 2012, at 1:01 PM. In the tweet, she replies to @CELEBUZZ with an explicit and vulgar message: “your pussy is way too dry to be riding my dick like this.” Her profile picture shows a black-and-white photo of her face.

Love the idea (and the song is still a bop) but my phone never makes noises. 😂
The image shows a notification on a smartphone screen featuring the Grindr logo, which is a black square with a stylized yellow mask. The notification message reads, "Xtina is Taking Over... Tap to turn on and see who's voicing your notifications all week," accompanied by two eye emojis. The notification bubble is white with rounded edges, and the time "44m ago" is displayed in gray to the right. The background is blurred, emphasizing the notification as the focal point.

Happy Thighsday! Going through the closet and reorganizing means I found some underwear I forgot about. 😏

A delicious way to celebrate twenty years together. I wonder what those two kids in 2005 sitting on the KU campus, talking all night, would make of the life and family we've built together over these two decades? ❤️ 😘 @dbenhg.bsky.social
The image features a cozy setup with a beautifully golden-brown baked Brie in a wooden holder as the focal point on a light-colored countertop. To the left, a wooden board is adorned with an assortment of cheeses, cured meats, dried fruits, and nuts, accompanied by two small bowls of seasoned nuts. A bottle of Kirkland Asti Prosecco stands prominently behind the board, adding a touch of elegance. In the background, a dimly lit living room with a blue-lit bookshelf and a comfortable gray sofa creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The image features a cozy living room setting centered around a round wooden coffee table adorned with a cheese and charcuterie spread. Two glasses of sparkling white wine flank a blue bowl filled with crackers, surrounded by an assortment of cheeses, nuts, and dried fruits. Decorative elements include two small owl figurines dressed in witch hats and a ghost-shaped container, adding a playful touch. In the background, a large screen displays the time against a scenic backdrop, while bookshelves and a potted plant contribute to the room's inviting atmosphere.

Thanks to the magic of science my hair will soon be a fun color again (and shorter).

Started the day with local coffee, a local donut, and a fantastic view. Now I'm lounging by a pool in a speedo. Not a bad beginning to a long weekend. 🏜️ 😎

Ahhhh summer in Phoenix. (It "feels" several degrees cooler because of the ridiculously low humidity, but that doesn't really change things at these temperatures.)
Two images side by side. Both images have a blue background with a white text box in the middle. The text in the text box reads "Phoenix Right Now 46°" on the left image and "Phoenix Right Now 115°" on the right image, indicating the temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit. Below the text box is a white cloud icon with a blue outline. Below the cloud icon is the text "CARROT WEATHER" in white.

My attempt at fresh pasta turned out pretty good. Nothing fancy, just the simple "fettuccine alfredo" from Rome with some chicken and parsley.(The fettuccine is a touch too thick but that's on me for being impatient and rolling by hand.)
A blue bowl of fresh fettuccine with chicken and cheese. The bowl is on a black table with a white and gray patterned cloth underneath. A can of soda is in the background. The dish is garnished with grated cheese and herbs. The overall presentation is simple yet appetizing.

Sparkling water restock time.
Two boxes of Good & Gather sparkling water on a white countertop. The top box is labeled "Summer Sangria" and features images of strawberries, oranges, and raspberries. The bottom box is labeled "Peach Bellini" and shows peaches and raspberries. Both boxes are 12 fl oz each and contain 8 cans. The background includes a blue tiled backsplash and a smart speaker. The overall setting is a kitchen.
