BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Lined up for their daily pets. Estimated waiting time: 5 - 75 minutes. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Spak Bros. in Garfield (vegan seitan wings are so good), Zenith in the South Side, Allegro Bakery in Sq. Hill. Also Pigeon bagels makes their own vegan schmears! 150
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Or, he just wrote this himself and posted from her account, like he's wont to with his mommy. 1110
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Fetterman only votes with Democrats when he's not the deciding vote (so he can claim his democratic bona fides without ever upsetting Daddy Trump) 040
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got here. Long story short, my ancestor took a ride on a shipment of nursery plants to a greenhouse in the eastern U.S. about a century ago. And bim bam bop, here I am! 110
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Thought I'd suddenly traveled back in time 70 years with that one... 11180
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Do they think the average Guitar Center shopper just ... Doesn't know? 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Is it not more like Twitter/X? Take over a storied institution, ruin it by elevating only certain viewpoints, and trigger a mass exodus of viewers/users with the purpose of quashing opposition and ensuring only their slanted stories/news are disseminated. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I wondered if I was using "bill of health" correctly & according to @merriam-webster.com it means "certificate given to the ship's master at the time of leaving port that indicates the state of health of a ship's company and of a port with regard to infectious diseases" Never knew about the origin! 000
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/09/2026The kittens (they are 6 y.o. but are forever kittens in my heart) screamed bloody murder on the way to the vet, but they did so well there and got clean bills of health. I didn't snap any pics, but here they are relaxing at home: 140
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I found you through this thread & followed. Thank you for bringing this to light -- apparently I'd memory-holed this. Big yikes. 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I had two back-to-back falls down the stairs and came away with multiple broken bones, a torn rotator cuff, a concussion, and an alarming amount of soft tissue bruising. Gravity is my nemesis. I now descend stairs very slowly, clutching the railing as I go. Never rush on stairs! 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Lady did so well at the vet today! She got her vaccines and had a forehead cyst drained, all without complaint. And the veterinarian and techs fawned over her beauty and told her she looks amazing for her advanced age. Take 2 tomorrow with our other kitties! 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Beyond whatever is going on with his hair, he looks like a lost, doddering dementia patient in his twilight. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 05/09/2026You know, those "black jobs" that trump liked to talk about. It's no coincidence that the black unemployment rate is twice the national avg. Their plan: Deport undocumented immigrants --> fire black folks from their jobs --> force the newly unemployed into the fields. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Hey now -- let's not forget what should be the most enduring part of Manchin's legacy: he was in the Epstein files. bsky.app/profile/thet... 051
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 13/08/2026So, we started feeding a neighborhood stray, and he seems like he wants to become one of the gang. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Literally nothing, just this that links to a WaPo article: David Popp, a McConnell spokesman, claimed in a new statement to The Washington Post that McConnell is continuing to work on Senate business during his weeks-long hospitalization that dates back to June 14. 2262
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Is anyone else's cat devoted to tunneling under bed blankets? Since Kiki discovered this past time, she asks to spelunk every night. And yes, that is her in my profile pic. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 10/07/2026No sirens, no oxygen, no compressions, no urgency or hurry. Covered in a sheet with unmoving white feet sticking out the bottom. I think I've seen all I need to. 2151
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 10/07/2026When I was a patient transported by ambulance to a hospital, they ran the sirens. 042
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Bb legit laid in this position and purred the entire time I cut her nails. Browzee supervised. #sisters #cats #kitty #manipedi 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Since one could interpret from this post that AOC endorsed Planter: she never endorsed him. She withheld support. A full month ago, she called allegations against him 'hard to stomach' and declined to endorse. 000
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 03/07/2026One of today's non-loading images that I really wish I could see 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Never heard of "the noticing" so I searched the phrase and found this article (not vouching for the publisher). Honestly dumbfounded at how much of this lingo I was unaware of, and also so saddened. aish.com/how-antisemi...aish.comHow Antisemitism Hides Online: Identifying Coded Jew Hatred | AishFrom “innocent” phrases to emojis and numbers, antisemitic hate is increasingly coded online. Learn how to spot these signals—and how to respond effectively. 120
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 03/07/2026King of Dogs! Seen here in the PA Wilds. It's been a year, and I still miss him every day. 3111
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 03/07/2026I guess it's taking the right-wing outrage machine and Colbert Report-ifying it? I'm at least heartened to hear that sales proceeds from Infowars merch will go to Sandy Hook families, since they've never seen a dime from Alex Jones. 110
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Riverview Park: where you can view details of objects in faraway space -- but, surprisingly, no rivers. 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Oh right -- sorry -- but I'm happy for you there is at least a gf cheez it! 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 01/07/2026If you're really feeling frisky, make a DIY cheesy snack mix: cheez-its, cheetos, cheddar popcorn, goldfish, sun chips, pretzels 100
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 23/06/2026My pillow. No touch. #catsofbluesky #cat #cats #kitty #pspsps #notouch #torties #tortie #tortoiseshell 050
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Ditto The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Like an alley cat marking his perceived territory. 010
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 16/06/2026My dad was also deeply into toasted cinnamon raisin bagels w tuna salad. May he RIP. Mine is more of a veggie sushi roll: toasted sesame bagel w/sliced cucumber, avocado, pickled ginger, boursin (or cream cheese), and honey mustard. 050
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Pittsburgh checks most of these boxes, but alas, not all. 160
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Our neighbor called animal control, but they didn't come out, as he hasn't been a persistent presence. He was also featured on a KDKA segment this week. We've removed all of our bird feeders and won't be putting them back for the foreseeable future. Bonus pic: he looks like man in a bear suit: 030
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 05/06/2026One week ago, today, a black bear prowled around our little hamlet on the edge of Allegheny Cemetery in #Pittsburgh. We watched with awe as he raided our bird feeders. He was otherwise very polite and didn't knock over or destroy anything else, and was soon on his way. No sign of him since. 130
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 05/06/2026What the... You just expanded my mind with this post. It's somehow fewer steps than regular gnocchi. Just braid the ropes instead of chopping and rolling each one on a gnocchi board. 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Finding balance today #cats #kitties #blackcat #blackcats #tortoiseshell #catsofbluesky #pspsps 080
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Late to this, but adding a few of my favorites: DEIyatollah, Handsome Mamdani, and Elon, who isn't Nazi saluting but pointing to the future ... Space! 1120
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Love seeing all his snoot marks on the window! He's been busy 000
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Ours too! Ask a librarian if your local library system offers this. I got to take my niece to the zoo for free! 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 01/05/2026This is Kiki. She's so, so special. She had been a feral stray, and for years after we took her in, if you looked directly at her, she'd run and hide for the rest of the day. Nowadays, she is present for every bathroom visit and loves to make eye contact while you pee. 020
BoB Atlantic @bobatlantic.bsky.social · 01/05/2026How about the "America First" award that Congress gave him -- surely that will be an enduring institution?? 010
