Meet Backpack, your 2026 Fat Bear Week champion. Backpack is 20 years old, weighs about 1,000 pounds and got his nickname because, as a cub, he loved riding on his mom's back across the Brooks River.

People taking the nor’easter warning seriously. Grocery store was NOT the usual Friday night crowd. Lotta folks wandering around like they don’t normally eat at home and aren’t sure what they are looking at. 😂

Haunted Stampede getting some new friends this year.
Three boxes on a kitchen counter. One box contains an inflatable triceratops with a jack o’lantern. One contains an inflatable unicorn with rain bow mane and rail, but the body is painted as a skeleton. The third box also contains a skeleton unicorn with a jack o’lantern in its mouth, with pink mane, tail, and hooves.

Before you say positive things about DHH because of Omarchy, a reminder that it's been like 3 weeks since he published a blog that compares Roma people to the wolves Denmark eradicated in the 1800s. He's an open, virulent racist and always has been. Everything he touches should be radioactive.

well. that's inclusive. I'm not convinced there is a healthcare provider in New Jersey who can meet some of those preferences.
Screenshot of a selection dropdown menu. The box is marked "Preferred language". The selection box contains "english" and the other options that are available are: "creoles and pidgins, english based"; "English", "English, middle (1100-1500)", and "English, old (ca. 450-1100)". Given that this is a patient portal for a healthcare provider, the selections are a bit eccentric.

Lmao. Need a short story where every statue of Jesus is really that he shows up and Medusa turns him to stone every time.
A meme using a marble statue of the sacred heart Jesus with arms outstretched. The text is MEDUSA: 1  JESUS: 0. I don’t know what statue this is, it honestly looks like he’s wearing gloves. Maybe he was pulling weeds.
