I had some peel-and-stick wallpaper samples, so I decorated my rabbits' castle. Zuzu approves.
A wooden two-story rabbit castle with a balcony and a ramp. The outside is covered in patches of wallpaper samples, and the effect looks like a crazy quilt or a patchwork quilt. Okay, some pieces are peeling and I need to tape them better. A gray rabbit (Zuzu, Earl Grey) sits in the upper story, looking at the camera.

Looks like I got the same zeroing in on Springfield, which is weird, because I remember taking this NYT quiz back in the day and it said I was more from Yonkers. I wonder what changed....

My friends and I have a cat-themed Slack channel. I asked if I could send pics to it even though my "cats" are rabbits. They said okay, so here's one of the honorary cats, Meringue.

Not sure who made this, but I agree with the friend who sent it to the group: it is an excellent tribute to Dolly Parton
A big scary looking flashlight labeled "Das Kapital by Karl Marx" next to a tiny little flashlight labeled "9 To 5 by Dolly Parton". The wee little flashlight is much much brighter than the big one, though.

I asked him if it was worth a lot of money, because that's the only reason I could imagine having something like that right by the front door, one of the only areas of his apartment that wasn't hidden by boxes and clutter. (Another bullet dodged probably.) But...not really?

When They Severed Earth From Sky is fascinating and changed my perspective on human history and how we preserve information. It's not very long and it tells myths, so if everyone had to read it, I think most people wouldn't be too put off.

Rockwell paintings are well known for presenting a nostalgic past that was never quite like that. That's often the source of humor when they are used as memes, in fact! You want to debate grand questions of right and wrong, but it's more like you need the joke explained to you.

Some white eggs are on the grass behind her.

This book is so fucking good! I read it because @acollierastro.bsky.social recommended it on her Youtube channel, and she was right.
The cover of this excellent book: "Glorious Exploits" a novel by Ferdia Lennon. It's orange, with a grayscale line drawing of an ancient Greek statue head that has googly eyes on it. Is this a comedy? A tragedy? An historic fiction? It's all of these things. It's also a good yarn about friendship, with some insights from the narrator about his own nature and that of the world he lives in, the ancient Greek city of Syracuse during the Peloponnesian War.

Fuck Hulu. I cancelled my subscription and still got charged this month. I should have known better than to bother subscribing in the first place just to binge one new season of one show. And now their support queue is too long for them to help me. Of course.
Screenshot of what I'm seeing on Hulu's support page, with a box that says "We are currently experiencing longer than normal wait times on phone and chat, but an agent will assist you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience. While you wait, check out the Help Center for more information on all things Hulu."

But all the other info on the page is useless because I already unsubscribed ages ago.

So this is what ChatGPT gave me. (I don't at all support using LLMs for creative writing, but I guess using it for free is bleeding OpenAI of money, so maybe this little experiment is at least ethically neutral.)
Please writing [sic] the following list in teh style of a Donald Trump post on Truth Social: I stopped 180 wars, inflation was reduced under me, I stopped the Democrat's shutdown, I kept boys out of girls sports, and I reinvested federal funds into America

Sure! Here's how a Donald Trump-style post might look on Truth Social:

The Great Trump Record! <flash emoji><US flag emoji>
Nobody's done more than me - believe me! I stopped 180 wars, folks! The most in HISTORY. <fire emoji> Under MY leadership, inflation dropped like NEVER before! <what is this emoji? a flower?>
I PUT an END to the Democrats' crazy shutdowns - and the economy came back STRONGER than ever. <flexing arm emoji>
I MADE sure that boys stayed out of girls' sports - COMMON SENSE! <medal emoji>
And I reinvested federal funds BACK into America, bring jobs and growth to every corner of our great country. <fire emoji><US flag emoji>
#MAGA #PromisesMadePromisesKept #AmericaFirst #Winning

It's all about the bold, confident tone, and putting emphasis on "nobody's done more" and "the best" with simple but powerful statements. What do you think?

I trimmed my rabbit's fur around her eyes because she's a long-haired angora mix, and if I don't trim it back, she won't be able to see. Let's just say, based on the result, I have much more sympathy for my mom for that one time she cut my sister's hair too short
