Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music

Several dozen folks did

Some even dubbed music over the original clip.

I haven't been able to get this out of my head.

So I give you

A Bluesky exclusive:

Reservoir Ducks

Has someone been playing Everything Is Crab? Have they now?

If not, they should.

Which might have to be followed up a little...

"Mommy, I thought only ladies and men loved each other."

"No, honey. Love doesn't care about that. Love is love."

β€œMommy, Mommy! Why are those two men kissing?”

β€œBecause they love each other.”

β€œOh, okay.”

Seems pretty easy.

As a child, I didn’t like β€œI” books and tended to reject them out of hand. But thinking about it…I used to β€œsee” the books I read in my head…like watching a movie. And I think that was harder with first person books.

Listening to Jackson Browne in the car today and Lives in the Balance came on.

Man, the more things change...

a drawing of a little girl looking at a skull on a television screen Alt: Scene from the movie Poltergeist of the little girl sitting close to the television with her hands resting on the screen.

Thank you. And yeah, I'm ready for a little warmer weather.

Of course, then you'll hear me complain about the heat... πŸ€”

Look, it’s a very heavy leaf and Steve had just gotten his fur the exact way he wanted it and now this leaf, and, in fact, he ordered a red leaf and this one is so not red, and he thinks he heard another otter laughing about his leaf..

Life is hard, man! Have some empathy!

Rapidly turning into my least favorite part of going to the dentist. Last time I was lectured about the correct way to floss and I so wanted to say β€œHon, I’m 70. You’re not going to get me to change the way I floss. I’m just happy I still have teeth that need flossing.”

I was thinking in the shower this morning that if these "oooh, let's bring about the End Times and the return of Jesus!" were real Christians...or even pseudo-Christians, they would know that their actions are condemning them to the lowest levels of Hell for eternity.
