Getting about town with @theospaniel.bsky.social. Thanks to the talent of @nealtiger.bsky.social and, maybe one day, a Microlino.
On a simple light green background is a darker and brighter green Microlino; a small electric car. The car is two tone in paint. Yes, the Microlino is made by the push scooter company. The car is driving right to left. The car is a four wheeled car - two in the front and two at the rear but close together. It looks like a bubble car. Theo is driving. Theo is a spaniel. He is leaning out the window. He is happy with his tongue out. His eyes are closed. His ears are flapping in the breeze. Shrugs is a passenger. He’s actually standing up and leaning back through the sunroof. One arm is extended upwards. One arm is extended down and back. It’s as though he is falling back because of the speed of driving off by Theo. Shrugs is happy. His eyes are closed and his mouth is open. Shrugs’ hat has flown off. It is a black hat with a light green hat band. Shrugs is a bear. Theo and Shrugs are wearing black suits and red ties. Where are they going? Theo’s colour markings are chocolate and cream. Shrugs’ colour markings are cinnamon, light cinnamon, a blue nose and blue paw pads. Shrugs wants his hat back. Theo and Shrugs do want a Microlino. Do you want a Microlino?

#BoatingAbout

That free boat sure isn’t free.
A picture of a boat that was once free but by now has had a lot of time and money spent on it. A Shetland Family Four front on. You can see the stern of the boat. It is cream. The lower parts are now dark blue. There’s a bright blue tarp on top of the cabin hatch. The boat lift is in yellow to the right.

This episode of Shrugs is Bluey
(With thanks to @davuu.bsky.social 🎨)

Jon Klassen’s lesser known novel: I want my chocolate bar back
A photograph of a Sainsbury’s local shelf where chocolate is placed behind perspex. There’s a yellow sign with black text and an image of a square with eyes. The text says “Removing items from store without payment is theft.”

A /what/ Burger?!
A photograph of the rear of a burger van / burger trailer. It is black with white text that says “Fresh and Handcrafted” in an arch above a stylised bear logo. Below the bear logo it says “Bear Burger”. Bears enjoy burgers. You may not enjoy burgers made of bears. That is simply incorrect.

About that free boat.

A picture of a free boat. A Shetland Family Four front on. You can see the stern of the boat. It is cream. The lower parts are black and red. This will become black and blue. There’s a bright blue tarp on top of the cabin hatch. The boat lift is in yellow to the right.

When you mistakenly order nine tacos, and then embrace your fate.

Recreation of Brother Bear stills by the talented @ayubearguy.bsky.social.
Shrugs the Bear in a pose by Kenai in Brother Bear looking guilty. Shrugs is a bear. He is cinnamon coloured with light cinnamon colour on his paws and face. His nose and eyes are blue. He is wearing glasses. His hands are held together near to his face. He is smiling pensively showing teeth. His ears are lowered down. He is anxious about whether he can eat nine tacos. He only wanted three tacos but one chicken, one beef, and one shrimp and not three chicken, three beef, and three shrimp. Shrugs the Bear in a pose by Tug in Brother Bear looking inquisitive and turning his head to the right . Shrugs is a bear. He is cinnamon coloured with light cinnamon colour on his paws and face. His nose and eyes are blue. He is wearing glasses. Shrugs is walking towards the frame. His right paw is raised. He looks as though he’s about to enjoy those nine tacos. He only managed six.

But it’s still on the tube.
A photograph of Croydon South or Southmost Croydon Tube Station and definitely not a place somewhere in the Canarias. The sky is blue fading to white because of the sunlight. The building in the foreground has the London Underground roundle with the words Underground written on them.

Back to the Future when @theospaniel.bsky.social and I were in Cornwall with @werewolf.gay and @televassi.bsky.social. Thanks to @nealtiger.bsky.social for their wonderful work.
Artwork by Neal Tiger. The background is an ochre coloured sky and a grass green floor. An off-white cloud rises up from the edges to the middle, like a fluffy, curvy pyramid. Lighter green leaves pepper the skyline and foreground. The ground is grass. On the left is Theo. Theo is sitting a top a cannon with both legs straddling the cannon. His left arm is out with his hand on his hip. His right arm is raised and his hand is pointing to the sky. Theo is a spaniel with cream and brown markings. He is wearing a green jacket and off-white t-shirt with black trousers and brown hiking boots. Theo is mouth-open smiling at the camera. On the right is Shrugs. Shrugs is a mirror pose of Theo. His right arm is out with his hand on his hip. His left arm is raised and his hand pointing to the sky. Shrugs is a bear with cinnamon colouring. The tips of fingers and muzzle is a lighter cinnamon colouring. He is wearing a green vest with an off-white short sleeved shirt with a collar with black trousers and brown hiking boots. Shrugs is mouth-open smiling to the camera. To the right of Theo, and to the left of Shrugs, in the centre of the frame is a beacon brazier in black matching the cannons. The brazier is on top of a long pole.

@bearlyfeline.bsky.social’s pencil goes burrr
Shrugs the bear doodle by @bearlyfeline.bsky.social. Shrugs is grinning, his lip is a bit down revealing front teeth. His nose is blue. He is wearing glasses. The line work is wonderful.
