Well I’m sold!
Instagram ad for a t-shirt purveyor. Image shows a burgundy v-neck shirt with the words “YOUR DESIGN Here” superimposed over it. The text is misaligned and overlaps the neck hole and part of the inside of the shirt. There is also a colour selection palette and the words “Shop now”, which I will not be doing.

Why is nobody talking about the fact that Harland Sanders (1890-1980) is currently at a World Series game
Photo of the tv broadcast of game 2 of the 2025 World Series showing the crowd behind the plate at Skydome, including what appears to be Colonel Sanders.

I know it's frowned upon to repost stuff from the old site, so sue me.
Screenshot of a tweet from Steve vs. Ninjas @stevevsninjas, that reads: Me: I want a dice. Clerk: The correct term is 'die'. Me: I want 2 die. Clerk: Plural is dice, alone it's die. Me: I want 2 die alone. 7:48 PM • Aug 19, 2016

My god, not Pictou County! CUPW really going for the jugular with these rotating strikes. This could paralyze the entire nation.

Can check. This one is from Thunder Bay, Ontario. It’s quite good. It’s a Northern “Logger”, get it? Beers taste better with puns.
A hand holding a can of Northern Logger beer from Sleeping Giant Brewing Company. The label features an illustration of a lumberjack holding an axe with one hand and with his other hand he is grappling with a bear…with antlers?

I don't know, when shit goes sideways I think I'm listening to Gemma.
New Yorker cartoon by Pia Guerra and Ian Boothby. Several students are lined up at their classroom door. One student has her hand raised. The teacher is saying, "No, Gemma, the first thing to do in a fire isn't 'get our stories straight.'"

Something similar I saw recently (online, not in person).
Photo of a vegetable garden with chicken wire over the top of it, along with a sign painted on plywood reading, “This is the awning of the cage of asparagus”. (Source unknown, sadly)

The profile pic is Musk in front of a US flag, the banner image is a US flag, the user name has a US flag emoji in the middle of it. Very stirring stuff, do ya think it’s really him? I’m so flattered.

Just found a photo that I snapped on Friday night in the medical imaging department at Sunnybrook Hospital. I had no luck finding a water bottle filling station but I would have settled for this place if it wasn’t behind a locked glass door. Who gets sent here?
A paper sign, taped onto frosted glass, which says “Gelato Room” with an upward pointing arrow.

DO YOU DARE TO TRY THE RUM SNIT
Screen shot of a dessert item from an online ordering menu. The photo is of a slice of...something, a rectangular wedge with pink icing and a brown base and variously coloured items inside. The name is "Rum Snit". The rest of the text reads "Per piece. Special instructions. Add a note to your order. Add for $3.00." It looks like it might be good, but the internet is letting me down trying to determine what a Balkan dessert called a "Rum Snit" might actually comprise.

Salvador Dalí would have loved Google Street View.
Screen grab from Google Street View, captured in the vicinity of the Cais das Colunas in Lisbon, Portugal. A number of people are sitting or standing near the shore, but the compositing effect has distorted or truncated a number of bodies while fusing others together, with bizarre results.

If it’s the bloody apocalypse then I’m having a Bloody Caesar, fuck it.
A Bloody Caesar in a blue plastic stem cup sitting on a glass table in my backyard. The cup is rimmed with celery salt and garnished with a wedge of lime. It was delicious.

A two-part image; the left panel shows a simple white alien-type figure on a black background, with white text that says "We Come In Peace" (artist unknown). The right panel shows one of the line-drawn people that appear in IKEA instruction manuals, looking puzzled while holding a booklet and a hammer and standing over partially-assembled furniture; the caption above reads "We come in pieces".

Our order has been picked up. That better be a thumb in the photo.
Photo from our food delivery agent showing a paper bag with a "Taco Fuego" label. Taking up a quarter of the foreground of the image is a large, out of focus, fleshy digit or appendage of some sort.

I think the woman in the bottom left of this photo may have misread the word "Lesbian" when deciding to attend this parade. I hope she's having fun regardless.
Photo from the Dyke March and Rally in Toronto on June 28, 2025 by Gate Oatley. A parade is underway, with a woman in the foreground holding up a sign that reads, "Long Live The Lesbians". Not far behind her is another woman whose shirt says "LEBANESE".

I noticed that one of the events during Pride in Toronto is a drag show for dogs. Sounds like fun. But oh boy, the description includes the phrase “Groomers Academy” and I don’t know if they’re trolling or simply trying to make a dog-related pun.
Anyway, I hope the performers and the dogs have fun.
“Dogs will be invited to live out their wildest dreams as the professors of “Groomers Academy” juggle giant tennis balls and frisbees, judge dance competitions, teach improv games, and play-by-play the slow-motion dog-olympics. WHY?! This year’s pride theme is “ALL IN”. A free alternative-drag show in an open setting will allow everyone to attend, and allow performers to express themselves as big / loud / small / quiet as our furry-friends. As family-friendly as possible, the Acoustic Picnic Drag Show for Dogs will show how inclusive and inoffensive non-binary performance art can be.”
