Are TL screenshots gouche, or...

A screenshot of two posts.
The first is from the satirical news account, The Onion: "NSFW Artist struggling to improve sexiness of regular Muppets," is the headline. The image shows a bearded man in a blue t-shirt sitting at a computer desk with a digital drawing tablet in front of him, which has a drawing of muscle-y Kermit the Frog.

The second post is from musician Peter Gabriel: Kiss the Frog was released this week in 1993 as the fourth single from 'US'. The music video was directed by Brett Leonard and won an MTV Video Music Award in 1994 for Best Visual Effects. Brett Leonard also directed Virtuosity, which featured Peter's track 'Party Man.'

My secret is never worrying what the crust looks like, only whether it has The Secret Ingredient

Vertically oriented photo of a small white plate with a slice of cheesecake on it. There's a metal utensil bucket, two cream and orange colored hot pads, and the rest of the cheesecake in the background.

When life gives you a surprise loaf of round challah, make French toast for dinner. Shana Tova!

A vertically oriented photo of a frying pan over a gas stove with two slices of French toast which are already cooked on one side. There is a square glass dish on the other side of the stove with two slices of uncooked french toast soaking up the batter, as well as an empty white plate waiting for the cooked french toast.

Can't make the bed but I'm not mad

Anoles are cute and respectable little neighbors, but the word "anole" looks like a cuss

A lush yard with oak, pine, and sabal palms, very slightly obscured by a porch screen that is making the yard look somewhat hazier in the blue evening light than it otherwise would. The important detail is that there is a slender green lizard clinging to the screen, climbing to the upper right from the center.

thunderhead sunset, August 12, 2026

Backlit trees frame the photo, which is of a thundercloud sunset. There are shafts of sunlight cutting through and illuminating the clouds from the bottom right of the photo. The colors of the sky are shades of yellow, orange, purple, blue, and gray.

A closer photo of a redder patch of clouds, crossed by power lines and framed by trees, with a purplish-gray S shaped cloud that looks a bit like a snake with its head up.

Later on, a close shot of a tall pine tree and power lines with some other trees at the bottom of the frame. The sky is robins egg blue behind the cloud cover, which is purple, peach, and a nearly hot pink shade.

Wider shot of the same backlit trees and power lines, also later on when the cloud cover over the sky has shifted colors to purples, oranges, yellows, and pinks.

It's International Cat Day on a Caturday!

Two black cats sharing a pillow on top of a box, beside a large double window with sunlight streaming through it and overgrown azalea bushes just visible outside. They are laying down next to each other, facing the viewer's right, with the cat closest to the window (named Plum) facing the camera, and the cat closest to the viewer (named Fig) resting his head on his forepaws. Their tails are crossed over each other.

POV: u r a phone camera & Plum is sniffing u

Vertically oriented (and blurry) close up of a black cat's right eye.

Also vertically oriented. Some of the cat's upper body is visible as she is stretching from the floor to the couch, with just the bottom of her mouth (which is blurry from being so close to the lenses) visible at the top of the picture.

Remember that time I made Baja Blast ice cream and Baja Blast jelly, then made ice cream floats with it

A screen shot from Facebook memories showing three photos. The first has Baja Blast simmering down in a pit next to a notebook with a full page of notes, and empty Baja Blast bottles. The second is an unopened bottle of soda with a quart measuring cup full of Baja Blast-colored custard ready to chill before freezing. The third picture has two cans of Baja Blast next to two pint glasses of Baja Blast floats with a little bit of jelly on top. It got all crystalized from the cold and was delicious.

14 years ago today, I traveled through & under a double rainbow to get to the middle-ish of Florida, so I could meet @broccolina.bsky.social the day after, and we've been together ever since

A vertically oriented photo of a stretch of highway (taken from the passenger side of a rental moving van) with three lanes in both directions, light traffic in the oncoming lanes. A double rainbow is arcing down from the top left seeming to touch down on each side, into the trees that line the highway. The sky is a gloomy gray-blue haze with a hint of sunset pink to the left.

Deluxe edition singles remix DJs

A vertically oriented photo (taken from below), of a male boat-tailed grackle, perched in the gnarled branches of a tall oak tree with his body angled toward the viewer but his head turned to the right. The glare of the sun is just visible through the branches to the left of his head, which is causing brighter glimmers of green in the leaves.

Horizontally oriented photo of a turkey vulture soaring above tall pine boughs, in a hazy blue, cloudless sky.

We don't usually see each other's headers. Quote post with yours.

Horizontally cropped photo I took of a big cloud that looked like Gary Larson had drawn a boxy cow in the sky. Hence the name, Cloud Tools.

my picrew just woke up & can't find their big heart-shaped glasses or figure out why their head isn't shaved anymore

A picrew by @xyn0n0. On an aqua background with a white circle behind them to emphasize the person (facing left), is a chibi style person sitting with their legs straight out on front of them in a V, and their palms flat on the floor between their legs. They've got short brown hair, green eyes, a sort of 😕 pouting expression, and a small black cat sitting on their left knee.

and on the 70th day god created Waluigi

A screen shot from reddit showing a modded Sims 4 character creation screen, in which the Simmer, AKA: reddit user Antique-Relief-4951, has done their best to create Waluigi. The caption says, "100 CAS Challenge: Day 70." CAS stands for "Create A Sim."

If you eat a cookie you become a woman

Screen shot of a reddit post with 10k upvotes and 45 comments (which I did not read). The lost is from r/Baking, and is titled "My daughter made cookies." The attached photo is of a floral patterned plate of what appear to be chocolate chip cookies, with a piece of paper on top of them that says, "If you eat a cookie you become a woman" and is signed with a =) type smiley face.

I've already got the zombie part covered, I'm at peace with it, I only get intrusive thoughts about what would happen to my cats, who are a couple of frootsnoozlin droopdanglers

Two black cats laying on their sides on a pillow, except one (Fig) is sideways on top of the other (Plum, who is smaller than her brother Fig).

"I think Hayes Arreola and I were just not meant to be..."

Close up photo of a laptop screen showing an in-game pop-up for The Sims 4. My Sin is jamming on an acoustic guitar in the background and got a phone call. An elderly fairy with pointy ears, a narrow face, and straight dark gray hair held back by a braided purple headband is saying, "I think Hayes Arreola and I were just not meant to be..."

It's less funny than you're imagining, it's just him with the thought bubble of a baby bottle, with aliens in the background (whether the uh Pollinating Parent is there, I don't know), but I couldn't resist grabbing it

A screen shot from r/thesims, from user LolaDreamTeam, titled "pregnant kylo ren." As explained above, Kylo Ren has a thought bubble over his head with a baby bottle, and is looking down at his stomach, which is flat but has a glowing green spark in front of it.

I mean just LOOK at this weird guy I met today

A vertically oriented photo of a brown pelican taking off from a river at around mid-day. There's the back of a small motorized fishing boat on the left in the background, as well as a lush treeline on the opposite shore. There's part of a wooden dock in the foreground.

Artist! Quite this with your horn art

Close up photo of a vertically oriented spiral bound sketchbook with tan paper and an intricate drawing done in fine point archival pen. The image is a sort of magic-eye picture that at first might not look like a thing but a craggy landscape of tangled roots. It is inviting the viewer to let their imagination spot the overlapping goats, unicorns, skeletal remains, tree roots, smoke, dragon, etc, or anything else I forgot is in there because I drew it in a bit of a fugue state.

I only have these Froots and never little a salami :(

Vertically oriented photo of two black cats squished together and facing the viewer from inside of their rainbow-striped cat tube, which is on a couch instead of the floor, partly to be softer and partly because they're clingy and like to sit together with us. Their names are Plum (on the left) and Fig (on the right), which is why we call them The Froots.

By their Froots shall ye know them

Vertically oriented photo of two black cats squished together inside a rainbow pattern cat tube, which was placed on an a sun-faded aqua couch. Their names are Plum (on the left and tucked behind her brother so she's peeking around him), and Fig (on the right with his right foreleg stretched out toward the viewer). They both have sort of sleepy but curious expressions. Plum is looking at the camera like a professional, but Fig is looking up and to the right, at the photographer (me, the weird cloud that lives with them).
