I do love a good beer cheese soup.

What did I do today? I sorted screws. Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like. I am a hardware hoarder.

Someone threw up last night. Poor little dude.

Sherman the English bulldog is smooshed into his pillow nest, sleeping, covered partially with his poncho liner, which used to be mine, but he now insists he owns.

When you’re not sure if it’s time to get up

A very tired looking Sherman, the English bulldog, slouches among a pile of pillows. Eyes shut, tongue out, not looking ready to get up and at ‘em.

You know, since all of our data is tracked by marketers, there should be an “I voted” flag we can set to opt out of all political advertising.

I give untu you, my Bsky peeps, the MDMBS (Multi-Day Meatball Sandwich) This shall serve me well all weekend.

A big-ass meatball sandwich that looks as if it were made on a dare.

Well, final surgery is done for my wife, now just several more weeks of recovery and she can put this behind her (for the most part)

Sherman can’t eat his breakfast, or get his day started, until his tummy wakes up. It usually lags the rest of his body by 30 - 90 minutes.

A little known fact about the CARS universe, is that post-World War 2 many Volkswagens, BMWs and Mercedes fled to Cargentina to avoid the Nuremberg Time Trials

I am really glad I learned basic sewing. Just fixed a pair of pants that had a tear.

Sherman has decided I am a dog bed

Sherman the English bulldog flops on me and has his tongue licking his nose.

He looks goofy.

The missus gets reconstruction surgery in the AM. She’s a bit stressed.

Mental note, if you accidentally drop a piece of raw bacon fat on the back of your dog, and the other dogs notice it, hilarity ensues.

If you see this, post a vampire that isn't Dracula

A scene from the Pink Panther cartoon where the Cluseau character is a vampire standing in front of a coffin-shaped mirror in a creepy stone castle. In the mirror, you only see his clothing, not the vampire.

I love how when Sherman goes to daycare, the other dogs crash like they ran an ultramarathon

I mean, I’m not one to kink shame…

A man holds an extremely large butt plug shaped object. The word “extremely” isn’t doing it justice. This is like King Kong’s butt plug.

The lions portrayed in “The Gost and the Darkness” are on display at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. They are much smaller than you’d think.

So in a hearing supposedly about the weapon nation of the DOJ, the DOJ provided unvetted information to attack the subject of the hearing?

I’m convinced we could solve a ton of issues by making bills that only single issues. Plain language, single issue, one vote per issue. No more tacking unpopular BS on must pass or popular bills.

I propose a new rule: Universities and campus police departments are no longer allowed to handle serious crimes. Rapes, assaults, etc. must involve the state and local authorities and no gag orders are authorized. No more covering shit up.

Well, it’s raining and I forgot to cover the motorcycles. As they are kinda grimy, maybe I’ll just wash them in the rain…

Why is it that when I see numbers from the Trump government showing improved consumer spending and growth my first thought is, “They’re making shit up”?

Well, the short ribs are delayed until Thursday. Long day at work for the missus and she’s meeting a friend tomorrow. So, I guess I’ll make myself some orange chicken.

LOL, got a call from a recruiter, but they don’t get paid by the hiring company, they want $8k -$15k from the candidate… FFS, people.

This is so fucking disgusting to me. Not one of them said “stop”, and not one of them called the authorities…

Costco had a beer cheese soup that I got. I cooked up a couple slices of bacon and crisped them up, then added in diced ham steak. Added bit of those to the soup and seat the heading to YUM!
