Quirko Lowry declares this #antiquesroadshow live watch party open!
Quirk, a small, white, stuffed toy duck with a yellow beak and feet and small, black, round eyes poses seated on a navy blue pillow against a dark red backdrop. He is wearing a blazer made from a tweed fabric offered by Bookster, an English textile manufacturer. The fabric is named Lowry in honor of the sartorially spectacular Antiques Roadshow appraiser Nicho Lowry. Quirk’s travel partner had to track down Bookster, purchase the fabric and an appropriate-color liner cloth (not visible in the photo), then hire an artisan to custom-make the blazer. At the end of his beak, Quirk wears a black mustache his travel partner drew on paper. Propped against one foot is a tiny bottle of Champagne—ok, it’s actually bubble liquid, but still.

Springbok, Funny Duckies, 400 pieces (Keeping it, despite its flaws) #puzzlesky #jigsawpuzzles
Springbok, Funny Duckies, 400 pieces, shown completed on a backdrop of pale orange posterboard. The puzzle pictures a pile of colorful rubber ducks, each of which is different. One looks like the Scream logo. Another is dressed as a clown. Two others are dressed like a football player and a basketball player.

Reposting this image with alt text.
A classical-looking interior. A sign that says 'Speaker of the House Mike Johnson' is displayed above a doorway. A woman with black hair wears an orange blazer over a black shirt and sits at a long, white fold-out table while scrolling on her phone. There is a sign attached to the table that says ‘Mike Johnson is starving families and gutting healthcare to cover up the Epstein files. CHANGE MY MIND.’ In the background is a television, probably tuned to a news channel, which shows a bespectacled man in a suit (he is not Mike Johnson, however).

Just sent out ten #postcardstovoters in support of Ash Marwah, a Dem who’s running for Florida Senate District 11. Special election happens on December 9.
Ten postcards in support of Ash Marwah, a Dem who’s running for Florida Senate District 11. The mailing side has linework art of a duck with the message “This duck wants you to VOTE. PLEASE do not disappoint the duck.” A young volunteer colored the duck bubblegum pink. The message side of the card says: ELECT Democrat ASH MARWAH to stand up for you in the state senate. Please return your special election vote-by-mail ballot soon. Affordability, accountability, and protecting Florida’s environment are Ash’s top priorities. Thanks! – SGS, volunteer”
