He's a bit esoteric, but Throgmorten from Lives of Christopher Chant.

Many-armed claw tornado of justice!
I'll lend you the book if you want.

It's bad enough that AI garbage is invading our art spaces, but every so often I find it needling its way into music playlists, where something feels a bit off and I check, & it's an AI song.

It is violating. I want art and music by human beings, not machines. I can't even trust new music anymore.

WHO HAS NOT looked at the clock an hour before their shift ends and thought "dogs I wish I could just go home NOW"?

That. That is the hour we should lose for DST.

If DST is really about saving daylight, we should take the hour out of Monday afternoon instead of Sat/Sun night.

So instead of missing an hour of life-giving sleep, we skip the dregs of the work day and just go out to play.

When I was 18,* the frame on my first mtn bike cracked (weld failed).
When I was 22,* the frame on my 2nd mtn bike cracked (weld failed).
When I was 29,* the bonding failed on the chainstays of my 3rd mtn bike.

This is the story of how I now have 6 bikes.
*All ages are approximate.

In honor of "Punish the Morning People" Day, I'd like to remind you that according to quantum physics, time does not exist.

A letter to Donald Trump from an angry 90-year-old man. It reads: 

Mr. Trump,
I owe it to YOU. I owe it to myself. I owe it to my family. I owe it to my friends, but
most of all I owe it to my FELLOW COUNTRYMEN to tell you directly to your face EXACTLY what I think of you.

You are RUDE! You are a LIAR! You are a VENGEFUL LITTLE MAN! You are a
THIEF! You are a MURDERER! You are a RACIST SEXIST PIG who, were you
halal, would be served up for Sunday dinner in Minneapolis, a RACIST SEXIST
SUCKLING PIG!

You are a SCHMUCK! You are a BULLY! You are a COWARD! But most of all
you are plain and simple a garden variety LOSER.

My dad is 90 years old. He’s been declining with congestive heart failure for years. Last month he took a turn for the worse. He said he had one more thing to do.

This morning he emailed me a PDF of a letter he’s sending to Trump.

It put me in a good mood. I hope it does the same for you

When I was a child I got to pet a kingsnake. When I told a friend, friend boasted that SHE had gotten to pet a cobra. I was sad until my aunt told me that that had most certainly been a lie and I could say, "well, I've held TWO cobras, one in each hand!"

This is the story of my go-to come-back.

Out on a walk with the dog in a cold evening, a 6-week old kitten ran up to us out of nowhere, crying.

I tethered the dog, picked her up, and carried her around the neighborhood knocking on doors until I found her (very relieved) owner.

This is the story of how I do NOT have 2 cats.

Not if you turn into a pumpkin at 6pm. 😭

My circadian rhythm always shifts me early so losing that hour of light in the morning HURTS

Cartoon drawing of a chubby light green caterpillar with orange-brown face and feet and a closed-eyes happy expression. It's curled around behind a large dark green leaf with some bites taken out of it and little holes, one of which is shaped like a heart. "KEEP GROWING" appears in large yellow letters across the leaf. Art by Moth Monarch.
