A light gray pigeon from the side profile and a shine in his visible amber eye. The head and neck are covered in a darker shade of gray with green, purple and bronze metallic shine to the neck feathers. He sports two dark stripes across his wings and dark gray, almost black tail feathers. His legs are pink in short gray fluffy trousers. He stands on a pebblestone surface, turned to the right and the dispersed sunlight casts soft shadow behind him.

A darker gray pigeon on a grassy patch stopped in his tracks to give a look to the press. He is turned to the left. In the sunlight his neck feathers shimmer in green and purple metallic shades. His wings are densely spotted with darker feathers.

Here we have two dark stripes on light gray wings, the body is slightly darker, with tail feathers being very dark on the tip. The pigeon marches across the grass like a boss, his neck strong and wide, chest all pumped up and his head tilted down. His visible eye is of a very distinctive orange. The second ball of a pigeon is out of focus in the top right part of the image, bent towards the grassy ground.

On a sidewalk there was this cute and beautifully coloured pigeon. He is mostly of white and very light gray, the tail and wings tips are black. He is facing to the left.

Let me show you some pigeon top models, living in Prague streets and on artificial cliffs. #pigeonsky 🪶

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

I’m sorry but no. RFKJr does not “have a point” about sugar content at a fucking donut shop. Are yall fucking stupid?

I really don't think I should have to verify that I am human to look at the Cheesecake Factory menu online. Dogs and robots should be able to look at 57 types of cheesecakes too.

how can the society that produced these images be so evil. how can so much beauty come from so much pain

I'm so sorry to hear! he was such a good guy 💜

most insects are closer to having some sort of subjective experience of the world relative to a perceived self than talking computer is, lol

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

A red squirrel on the ground. It almost looks like it is in superhero pose with one front paw and one back paw on the ground. The other front and back paws are raised in the air, its head is forward ready to run towards the camera.

What we all need to see is a red squirrel in a power pose.
You're welcome.

A tabby cat sitting in a human chair at a table with a tablecloth. It is tentatively touching a tiny pancake on a plate with its paw.

My friend served her cat a pancake this morning.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish.

2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

CACKLING at this excerpt from the article 😂

Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.

when I find really nice rocks digging in the garden or walking the dog, I save them to give to my best friends because we are all of us simple creatures of the earth, otters and penguins and crows carrying a smooth shiny pebble to give to someone we love

The NYT reports that Air Force One has turned around due to a situation officials are describing as “creature on the wing”

Three people talking. The man on the left in the green jacket looks down, like he’s embarrassed. The man in the center in the blue jacket smiles confidently, his eyes twinkling. The woman on the right is smiling too. There’s some serious flirting going on here, Rose thinks, watching from a corner table in the coffee shop. She tries to parse the dynamics. Green Jacket feels like a third wheel. Yet the woman has eyes only for him. Blue Jacket thinks he himself has a chance, hell, more than a chance. Rose feels a little sick to her stomach watching the show. She wishes she could access their character charts and add a few more points of charisma to Green Jacket. Maybe by taking them from Blue Jacket. The best move, though, would be to amp up the woman’s strength and wisdom, so she realizes she doesn’t need either of these guys and walks away. And sees Rose, sitting there in the corner.
