Slumber party coming up, so I moved the Nazarenes and their cousin from Korea to the guest room for their own safety.

A classical martin guitar on a floor stand in front, with no pick guard and the reversal tuning pegs, which are orange if you zoom in but is not reallyy noticeable behind it is a similar steel string martin with a nifty scalloped pickguard and gilded style hardware, and a 12 string sigma behind it. There is a white dresser and a black piano on the edges of the frame and a light blue shirt hanging over a chair.

Oh fuck, the lantern flies have a taste for meat!

It said large photo of a chili cup at the Wendy’s drive-through, and there’s a spot in lantern fly who looks like it’s sitting on the inner rim of the cup about to eat some chili I guess.
The cup is yellow with red riding, and you can tell. I guess that it says chili on it, even though you can’t read all the words, and there’s a black background, metallic, shiny border, like the stainless steel frame of this photo, there’s a baked potato in the background, cut up a little bit with sour cream evidence of one chive

It looks like he’s almost done reading this devastating paragraph, but he only understands 90% of the words.

At bottom is a photo of Kash Patel with his hand over his chin and part of his mouth, looking up, as if reading the paragraph above in an NYT article: “Former F.B.I. officials and cybersecurity experts who track criminal groups said that the breach appeared authentic and that it amounted to a potentially devastating security lapse and counterintelligence danger for the bureau. Among other concerns, the personnel information of F.B.I. officials, if posted on the dark web, could be acquired by foreign intelligence agencies in China, Russia or elsewhere and weaponized for espionage operations.”

Look at this signature I found on Wikipedia

It says signature black letters above us in line and below. It is what it looks like an image of a signature. It’s all capital letters and it looks unlike signatures! It says M A C K L E M O R and then there’s a backwards E and an exclamation point. It’s underlined twice.

Sufjan looks like he’s trying to get Brett Goldstein attached to his script for “Untitled Carrie and Lowell Movie”

Sufjan with a dark brooding look and stubble and a bit of short dark hair with a dark shirt with the collar half up. Real tough looking.

Last time we did containers all put for a year was a good time.

Lots of flower pots with yellow sunflowers, pink and red zinnias, some yellow poppy and red dragon breath with a white shed and grass behind it.

Just before midnight on the east coast I was about to fall asleep and something stirred me. I realized the time, peeked out the window, and took a photo through the glass. The clouds plus the lens effect rules, IMO. #eclipse #lunareclipse

A cloudy nightsky photo with the partially eclipsed moon and a Lens effect next to it of just the top sliver which is not eclipsed

#RIPYayoiKusama it’s a fish-eye shot but that’s a ~7 year old there, for perspective.

Also speaking of Stallone, this Copland book I got for kids is not as bloody as the movie.

A youth book cover with a piano and a player and two dancers and a dog playing as if the lid of the piano was a steeet. Text says “COPLAND
A Story About
America
AND
VERONICA MANG”

My kid’s teacher is on the ball.

Screen grab of an email - the Email text says “Hi Parents,
We had a great day 1! I loved your kids energy and enthusiasm. Tomorrow we are going to do a brief group project on Dolly Parton. It'll be her background, how she helped others, and interpret/ decipher lyrics. It would be great, if possible, if you can listen to a song or two (or more) with your 5th grader so they have a little background infor tomorrow. If you can't get to it, no worries. Thanks.”

This is by far the best photo I got on that trip, on the docks when we got back.

An egret on the side of a boat- it is a tall white bored with a long dark bill.

Those of us with 14” Beagles don’t even grasp how big the squash is. Gracie says hello!

I was about to take a training on Udemy and…maybe it’s just that name…

It’s a training title card with two of the same person shown as the instructor, and his name both times is “Dan Sullivan”

Spotted this a while back on one of the MOCO 250 things I have a *very* non-sequitur connection to her :)

A poster that says

ELECT
SHANNON
"FOR SURE"
SCHOOL BOARD '82.

And a shoulders-up photo of a dark skinned woman’s with curly black hair and dark glasses wearing a dark striped shirt with a white collar.

@takomaparkmd.gov do you know why I got three of the Takoma Park News and city guide in my mail this week? It seemed like they came three days in a row, but maybe they were spaced out. I don’t need another one on Monday, I promise.

Is the Takoma Park City guide - from Fall, 2026 and advertise classes, programs and services and more. There is a photo of three kids in Halloween costume costumes on the front. There are three this city guide on a table and three Takoma Park News local newspapers behind it. I was delivered three by mistake.

this image from when you look up the seven seals on Wikipedia is excellent.

It’s an image centered on a lamb opening a book of the seven seals and there is a bunch of people around with crowns, holding out crowns and stuff and couple Services or whatever man holding the book might supposed to look like that guy from the third Indiana Jones, he has a long beard and long hair and mustache kinda like a wizard character, and there’s angels and fire and clouds and stuff.

Might have been Columbia house but…

The album cover for Blues Traveler’s album four, it’s a bright green background, with half of the face of a cartoon cat, which is black, with stylized, pink and purple and red, and blue glasses for some reason

This angle does not serve me well here but when u walk from the farmer’s market towards the front of ACE it is different.

A motorcycle of sorts propped into a wheelie - orange parts on the body and two diagonal poles holding up the front. It is maybe stylized like steampunk a bit but not heavily. extra gears and such, and long odd skinny handlebar setup. Like a person would have to armpit these handlebars if they were seated

Sharing a cat my kid traced from a 3-D object and then added colors and the excellent hat.

A cartoon cat with pink and purple mottling and a black hat with ears sticking through it.

Heron on the long branch at Jackson Ave bridge. I scared it out from under the bridge by accident.

It’s hard to make out, but there’s a long necked gray bird standing in the shallow water with rocks and greens around it

I like how this new fan has a nuclear setting

It’s the top of a tower fan, mostly gray with a little green wall behind it and the fan has four buttons on it. One of them looks like a circle with arrows pointing out parallel to one another in opposite directions from the top of the bottom one looks like a circle with two lines in it simulating the face of a clock at 3 am or pm I guess, the third button looks like the nuclear symbol, but it’s supposed to look like a three bladed fan, and the fourth one is a traditional power symbol circle with the little line through the top of the circle ending about the middle of the circle

Redheaded stranger 🪶 I’ve been seeing mostly black vultures up close for years now for whatever reason. As an aside - I’ll be watching the missing dog signs around here. Not fun to see that part.

A turkey vulture on a perch - mostly greens behind, it’s a brown branch of a fallen tree. The bird is brown and its head is reddish.

A turkey vulture on a different perch from an other photo on this post - mostly greens behind plus a bit of blue sky, it’s on a dead branch of a living or dying tree. The bird is brown and its head is reddish, and its wings are spread a good bit so you can see its large wing feathers and fat tail feathers
