Photo of a whooping crane in a marsh

ZOO FACT:
The Giant Panda is difficult to breed in captivity but less so than the Whooping Crane. Their cycles are predictable, but the whooping is such a mood killer.

Extra big shoehorn for my onesie

I saw a chiropractor today. He cracked my back so loud I think he woke up a neighbour's dog.

Also a small, sleeping Velociraptor that was living in my ass.

don’t ask if my computer is backed up it’s none of your bitness

I don't have to wake up super early so I want to stay up and binge Love Is Blind UK but I'm tired and already aggravated by the accents generally and this one bitch specifically so I'm off to bed.

Black and white photo of a medium haired white cat sitting up on its haunches next to a woman in a chair, seeming to beg.

Cat that obviously hasn’t been fed in weeks, needs that tiny crumb to survive. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

my brain will not let me focus on reading, writing, or drawing, so scrolling it is I guess

I like doing Civil War re-enactments. I play the Kirsten Dunst part.

What's your favorite kind of sea creature?

what if lost was really about epstein island this whole time

I don't think it's actually possible to be mean while talking into a hot dog phone.

4. Tigger - 8mo, another sweet gentle little dude. No fear at all, just wanted lots of pets and scritches 🥹😻

Tigger’s easygoing nature comes from being loved by 3 generations in a tight 2br apartment. Also has 2 gorgeous fluffy polydactyl feline sisters!

Continuing yesterday’s 5-cat spay day celebration! Please meet more snip-snip stars:

3. Lila - 9mo, shocked his owner by being a boy cat! 😹 Had been told it was a girl as a kitten and never questioned it.

I didn’t even look, so the vet broke the news! Had a good laugh 🤣

The earth in every effort.

I think Bacon is doing the heavy lifting in this festival.

Mountain to the Wasatch with a pancake stack cloud behind it, buildings in the foreground. Salt Lake City.

Freaky clouds to the east!

I was born in the wrong decade or maybe it’s just the wrong pants. Either way, I feel out of place.

They'd better be; I have to drag shit out of him.

If we're arguing and I ask him if he still loves me, he just gives me a "don't be an idiot" look, but hasn't actually told me that he loves me in years. I can count on one hand the times I've cajoled him into admitting it out loud. 😂

😆 We definitely both love animals, but that one still surprised me.

buffalo flavor is nothing like I expected

first rule of holes, should you find yourself in one….Stop digging

If we mix all the salads, will we get the ultimate salad? The salad to rule them all. Salad supreme? (I'm talking mixing garden salad, potato salad, taco salad, pasta salad .. *all* the salads). Or will it be some sort of highlander situation and only one will survive (as the others wither away)?

Occasionally, I ask Rooster why he loves me because he would never volunteer his feelings and because the answer changes.

Last time, he told me it's because of my perseverance and tenacity.

The previous time, he said it's because I don't need him.

Another time, he said it's because I love dogs.

Run? Are you kidding me?

The only thing I run is low on toilet paper.
