David, Jeanette, and Nicky all gravitate toward "amazing hole in the wall" but Nicky would not say No to the hot dog cart. Molly partakes in both Michelin fine dining experiences and incognito visits to wonderful hole-in-wall places. ¿Por qué no los dos? and all that! #WritingPrompts

This splendid looking male Iberian emerald lizard (Lacerta schreiberi) in the Sierra de la Culebra, Zamora. Endemic to the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. After taking this, standing on one leg, arm outstretched, I fell into a bush of thorns. Lagarto verdinegro in Spanish.

Butterbutt. An older comic.

A four-panel comic titled "yellow-rumped warbler poem". In panel 1, a yellow-rumped warbler stands on a branch in a late autumn scene, and says "Fall is here." In panel 2, the warbler watches a brown leaf fall to the ground, and says "Winter's near." In panel 3, the warbler faces the viewer as brown leaves fall, and says "Need some cheer?" In panel 4, the warbler is showing its luminous yellow rump, and cheerfully says "See my rear."

I've said this before, but... Because I am compelled. I've been doing it since I could hold a pencil. I have to write things, and if fiction isn't flowing in the moment I write topical essays on social media and whatnot. My brain percolates with words that go together. It just is. #pretendpanel

In order to reduce sibling rivalry we've introduced the new baby as an essentially tragic figure who's crying all the time bc he can't eat all the delicious foods the toddler can eat. I think its working but this morning the toddler solemnly told me "baby cryin cus e can't eat pineapple... Or bugs"

If I knew anything about screenwriting, I would write the script for an origin story of Walter Peck, the EPA agent in Ghostbusters, that recasts him as a tragic hero. Showing how he was correctly responding to a legitimate public safety threat, and thwarted at every turn.

I saw these 1920s glasses glowing in a shop window and I had to have them. They are even more iridescent in person 🤩

Four small cordial glasses and four slightly larger coupe glasses, each with clear glass, bell-shaped cups and thin brown glass stems. The delicate glasses sit on a tray near the window where they can catch the light. The light illuminates the clear glass which has been treated in a way that gives them an iridescent shine like a soap bubble

Never before has a turtle turtled this hard. Zoom in and appreciate The Foot

A fantastic painted turtle stands on a snag in a stream. Turtle has a smooth black carapace with bright red edges. Its neck and legs are a glorious riot of yellow racing stripes. It has its neck fully extended staring at the sky and the back right leg and foot are completely extended. This is an epic pose by a creature at the peak of its powers.

Humaning.

A four-panel comic. In panel 1, a Northern Cardinal and American Goldfinch perch above a busy crowd in a city, looking down. The cardinal says "It's a nice day to go humaning." The goldfinch says "Just look at them. Majestic." In panel 2, a close-up of the two birds. The cardinal says "Nobody tells you that you'll reach a certain age and suddenly get into humaning. I hit 3 years old, and then bam."The birds are looking out over the crowd scene. In panel 3, the cardinal says "Their calls sound funny to us, but each one has a unique meaning." Below, people are saying various things: "I'm tired." "Where's my phone?" "I'd murder a burrito." In panel 4, the birds look down excitedly at a man walking by. The cardinal says "Wait, is that a guy who got dressed in the dark and put his shirt on inside out and backwards?" And the goldfinch exclaims, "Holy... that's a lifer!"
