Graphic artist and writer living in Michigan. I mostly come here for laughs and to talk Detroit sports, but I do wear my 💙on my sleeve and get political. I live with my best friend, an Australian shepherd-lab mix named Daisy.

John Roberts is very upset that the public has lost confidence in John Roberts and the institution John Roberts leads following a series of confidence-cratering actions by John Roberts and his colleagues, and therefore would like everyone to know that this is not John Roberts' fault, it's yours.

Elon Musk is a corporate raider with an established history of buying up businesses, pushing out the founders, taking credit for their inventions and reshaping those businesses in his own image.
His latest raid?

I guess it’s because this is a relatively new social medium and it’s like the gold rush so grifters are flocking here, but I am getting WAY MORE spam/scam adds and messages here than I ever got on Twitter. I’m not complaining, exactly, just something I’ve noticed.

Whoops. Forgot to take a picture of “Intermezzo” before I took it back to the library, so you get this action shot as I was walking up to the front door. Great book by @sallyrooney001.bsky.social (like all of her books). Kind of a slow burn at the start, but such a worthwhile read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
