YES, there are so many good surreal ones now. Also some straightforward and very specific ones like this one I own!

Well played, Bluesky Trending menu writers. This confused me so much I clicked! ("Is there a site for all Donalds and now they've gotten rid of Trump because he's tainted the name???")
Trending menu:
1. RNLI boat damage incident
2. Disney reboots Darkwing Duck
3. Donalds strips Trump from website (highlighted)
4. Alleged FBI data breach
5. Ella Langley song breaks chart record

I took summer school the year before 7th grade which means I was ELEVEN YEARS OLD when this book about the aftermath of nuclear war was assigned. I could not read it, but I did flip through to see a description of someone's skin turning black from stolen radioactive jewelry.

Seriously though, both of mine have been more into dangling their head off things. My theory is that they like the head rush.

Hey friends, so it turned out that while the hound I was fostering was cute, she was also young and full of too many beans for me. I have now adopted this precious blue 4-yr-old. As you can see she's having a hard time settling in. #greyhoundsofbluesky #houndsky

Hey quick notice I lost my beloved girl Eleanor on Friday. Sudden pain/discomfort/lack of mobility, possible advancement of cancer, meds could not make her comfortable. Will love her forever. 💔 Her auntie took this pic of us together after her amputation in June.

No, but I paid $240 to discover that my dog had NOT eaten the missing chip from a rusty razor blade. (They made sure they would be able to see the chip by taking a test x-ray with the razor blade under the dog!)

Agree on your greyhound identifiers... def. half-muppet half-shark, def. unemployed. Clearly HORSE (although also describable as a lump!) All greyhounds should get the pseudo-tremble qualifier: only lose their shit about minor things. This one's super stoic about missing leg.

You think that's scary... what about the nervous system skeletons??? (A friend posted a picture of unknown provenance claiming to show the human nervous system... but for no reason it has a skull and appears to be in Old-West-gun-duel posture. I love it, it is my new cryptid friend)

My talented tripod greyhound has learned to use her remaining hind leg to scratch one ear. (I have to pay attention to when she sits on the other side and tilts the other way and looks confused, which means I need to step in and scratch the other.) #tripods #houndsky
