illustration inspired by Mary Shelley's novel "Frankenstein" showing the creature standing beside a tree on a hilltop.
"It was the wretch, the filthy daemon, to whom I had given life."
Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" was published on this day in 1818 🫀
An Oklahoma fire department turned down $250,000 from Google because they didn't want to betray public trust as Google tries to build a data center in their community.
The Rock Volunteer Fire Department chief got a standing ovation for speaking out against the data center.

Please enjoy $10/gallon gas while the Department of War orders more sushi and crabs.
I should be home reading with the windows open. Sigh.
I'm "WHY YOU ALWAYS BUST MY RHYMES?!?" years old.
An overhead photo of a woman in pj's sitting on a couch, with a cat on either side, pressed close. There are beverages and a remote on the green table, and slippers on the floor.
Covered with cat butts
If I'm having kraft dinner, it needs to be SPIRALS (like what my brain does)
People living in poverty are more experienced at navigating the real world than anyone else
if we had an opposition party they'd oppose things
Me every time I'm in the pharmacy drive-through - "I need to figure out how to get my prescriptions mailed to me!"
Me the next day - "... What was I thinking about? It's gone now."
I definitely get that feeling sometimes. I see you!
An enormous ice cream sundae. Two people have set up ladders in the sundae. They are falling off the ladders because the sundae was an unsafe place to set up a ladder. The text reads: Warm weather means ladders. Set up your ladder on a firm, flat (non-ice cream) surface and make sure you have a spotter!
Set up your ladder on a firm, flat surface. Do not set up your ladder in a large ice cream sundae.
Just for fun, here are some images of the same DOGE douche (Justin Fox) at the raid on the US Institute of Peace via the MPD body cam footage I obtained:

I like how Aragorn has different names for himself in different places in Middle Earth because he bounces checks or something
Post your favorite Lord of the Rings character. Wrong answers only.
Now we're on the couch, and they both have their bums on me.
Charlotte has been with me for 9 years, and she still gets weirded out if I'm behind her while she's drinking water. I know it's a cat thing to be vigilant around the watering hole... but then we have Angus, who likes to put his bum directly on my foot while he hydrates.
Prime tried to get me to watch "Melania" - HA!! I'm just here for my Australian chaos gremlins on Deadloch.
"I'm sticking to you like a pube on a soap."
His pup cup fell on the ground
NO NO NO YOU DON’T

I don’t know if I have the mental capacity to witness Ds going on the ‘supporting (bad person/legisation) was a big mistake’ tours. How did all of us know it was a mistake but none of you did?
man that’s crazy that the US missile did that of its own accord
The new no-drill brackets on the other window need to "cure" for 1 to 3 days before I hang anything, which I didn't know because I never read ahead.
An orange cat observes the neighbor's yard from a windowsill, with a purple velvet curtain behind him
I was able to hang one new curtain in my room (it already had brackets, just needed a rod, he he), and Angus is apparently a curtain lover, who knew? He didn't have to ask me to move the skanky, broken old blinds out of his way, and he thinks there's a magical land behind the velvet.
If you feed your cat Fancy Feast wet food + they've been throwing up, switch brands. 4 of ours started throwing up recently (2 had to go to urgent care). They'd been eating Fancy Feast; we switched their food out, they're fine now. I'm seeing tons of reports of the same thing with FF in last 3 weeks
holy absolute fuck
Drop a gif you can hear (I'm so sorry)
