This one is a terrible pun, chest tattoo, red P3 controller, headhors, and a very unsexy hat. Gay Mer-man and this absolutely qualifies for Corporal Pun-ishment, if you're into that.

If you see this, quote post with a beach photo from your gallery if you have one.
A flat beach of black volcanic rock slabs looks out on ocean waves and fluffy white low-lying clouds. A sea lion head pokes out of the water.

Serpentine from Daniel Smith or Vagone from Case for Making might have enough brown.
Swatch panels from my watercolor palette, top row is 3 reds and a pastel lavender. Second row is a brown and three granulating greens. Third row is 4 blues from midnight to florescent blue. Fifth row is two yellows, a buttercream, and a light peach.

I'm at the "well at least I have that to look forward to" stage of reading the news today.
News headline "The Yellowstone Supervolcano - America's Ticking Time Bomb" with picture of peaceful river and grassy field.

I read this headline three times, thinking that this was an Onion story about municipal buildings being repurposed for retail.
NYTimes headline "Long a ‘Crown Jewel’ of Government, N.I.H. Is Now a Target" and NOT an Onion headline "Government N.I.H. Is Now a Target"

Post a non religious picture you think of as holy.
A cartoon brown beagle with black ears wears a hat and sits in a chair next to a table with a cup on it The room is engulfed in flames. The dog says "THIS IS FINE." but clearly, dear reader, it is NOT.

If you see this, quote post a picture of a beach/shoreline.
A beach in Tacoma at low tide. Old rotted pillings stand out from the shore. In the distance, loading cranes for cargo ships. Bright white clouds are clustered around a spot of blue in the upper right of the photo. The exposed sand gleams with light streaks of pulverized shell fragments and damp sediment.
