This guy had to have some drugs for a blood pressure reading and now he's pondering what cheese the moo would be made of if it were cheese and whether or not he could kick the ass of a horse sized duck. he is zooted.
Totally wasted looking little dog in a pile of blankets.

I love how my dog can be super cozy and look like he is tolerating the situation as though it is a great tragedy he must bear.
Small pup bundled like a burrito. He looks rather long suffering but he is fine. Better than fine.

i'm a dog walker and this is my friend Maisie. she was in a real, "NO THE WALK IS NOT OVER YET" kinda mood today.
Little scruffy wire haired doggo with a black nose. Chin on paws, her eyes are very much saying DO NOT GO HOME STAY HERE WITH ME.

Went to see Metropolis on a big screen with a live organ score and can't stop thinking about AI.

Never not funny to me when I catch this guy in a state of mega-blep.
Small doggo with his tongue sticking way out. He's fine, just being a goofball.

Is there a due process for renaming landmarks or can anyone do it? Like, could I just rename my street after my dog? He is pretty great. I mean, check him out.

get a dog, they said. you'll like having a dog, they said. a writer needs a dog, they said. opted for this funny little land seal. close enough.
Snoozy pink snooted dog on a fluffy blanket. He looks very relaxed and content.

I might have one of those floating picks, given to me by the Commander himself. I keep it pinned in my uke strings so it doesn't drift off. 🤩😍🤩

A far away friend sent my doggo this blanket she made for him. It's not the first time he's received handmade gifts or support for his care. People love this second hand weirdo and it fills my heart. I hope he knows how adored he is.
Small brown and white dog sitting on a light brown blanket. Dog has one floppy ear and he's cute in a funny looking cute kind of way. He's in front of a globe, the globe looks a little bit like a halo the way it's postioned behind his head.

this guy is getting up there but from time to time he still goes racing through the house and hurls himself full force into his bed like he's a space capsule on a re-entry and splash down run. it's the best. the absolute best.

Time to get round.

This tiny cairn came from a friend I made the winter I fell in love with #Moab, Utah. It's a mere two inches tall but it reminds me of that beautiful place.

You guys. Look at this dog that hangs out at my house like he owns the place.
Dog in low light. He looks a little bit like he has painted on eyebrows.

happy 'nap with your dog coz that was a long night' 5th of july
Snoozy little brown and white dog, eyes mostly closed, tongue out. He has one floppy ear and one up ear and he's sacked out on a fluffy blanket. It's possible he's the best dog that ever dogged, but they're all good dogs, Bront.

Pam Mandel @nerdseyeview.bsky.social · 05/07/2026
dogs are great coz sometimes they're like "HEY LET'S GO CHECK OUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD NO REASON." and you have to go coz they're insistent and later you're all, "I needed that." (The dog in question)
Small brown and white dog with one floppy ear, a little squinty,  standing next to a potted cucumber plant that's bigger than he is. He's kind of a funny looking little guy and probably the best dog that ever was.

Here's to our once and future independence from tyranny. And by "our" I mean all of us, not just Americans.
Me in a black tshirt that says Fuck Those Guys. I'm in front of an inverted US flag, a string of prayer flags, and the edge of a rainbow flag. You can't tell from the photo, but the book I'm holding is Emma Goldman's autobiography.

Found this in my house. Any idea what I'm supposed to do with it? Seems like it just wants snugs and treats.

Hundreds of my neighbors were out exploring the mystical gooey critters that live in the Puget Sound tidal zone and it is maybe my favorite thing about living in West Seattle. Nature is crazy, yo, and we are part of it.

I was psyched to get a story in the Sunday Seattle Times but also psyched that this photo is the lead in the digital slide show and includes my dog, Harley. www.seattletimes.com/explore/at-h...
My hand holding a crow decoy. Somewhat blurred in the background is my small dog, wearing a stripey sweater. It's in my kitchen, so you can see the yellow and orange striped floor.

y'all this was dust and dandelions and now it is very much not. i wrote about how that happened here. It's a mess full of birds and flowers and bees, so many bees. www.howilearnedseries.com/p/chip-drop

Went to look at critters at today's low tide. Stunner day saw cool things, and there were like 150 first graders LOSING THEIR SHIT over marine life so that's one thing that's as it should be.

I'm a dog walker, I LOVE sending notes and getting the perfect picture. This gal is Maisie, she's my current regular.
