That look when you are filming a video in a public space and see a fellow street photographer watching you and waiting for a candid shot… #rva (it made it into the video, by the way)

#rva, I love you, but your pizza totally, utterly sucks. And this one screenshot is the definitive example of why.

A screenshot of an instagram post showing a slice of pizza crust covered in stew. The post reads:
zorchpizza Wow! Special slice in Carytown for the weekend!
How-could-you-not?-Roast: house made pot roast with eye round steak, potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, mozz, parm, romano, topped with fresh parsley
A perfect slice for the changing weather!

That someone helped Wheelchair Bear from his spot stalking walkers on the Capital Trail from the bushes and moved him to a spot with a nice, calm, scenic view makes me happy for him and for his neighborhood in general. #RVA

Sometimes the best way to write to be sure you are being historically accurate about your town is to go read the road sign about it… I’m sad there is not hyperlink to the references, however.

Screenshot from wikipedia that reads: Onancock (/ou'nænkok/ oh-NAN-kok) is a town in Accomack County, Virginia, United States. As of the 2020 census, Onancock
had a population of 1,169.[5]
History
According to a nearby Virginia state highway marker, Onancock was founded in 1680. A courthouse was established some years after, and militia barracks established during the Revolution.

OMG, it’s like Reefer Madness all over again!

"Our oldest son Bhakti has had mental issues in the past but has been doing well for the last 10 years," the statement reads. "Several days ago, he started acting erratically, as a result of smoking pot. His wife kicked him out of the house, so he's been sleeping on the streets. He gave away his car to a homeless person; lost his ID and phone and has no money. He's renamed himself, Batarti, and also Jim Morrison Jr., as he's having delusions of being a rock star."

The only thing this proves is that Jeffrey Epstein is still alive and is writing all of Trump’s tweets.

A Guardian screenshot reading: Jeffrey Epstein's alleged suicide note released
A federal judge has unsealed an alleged suicide note by Jeffrey Epstein, the first time the document has been made public. The note, written in messy handwriting, appeared to say:
11 They investigated me for months - FOUND NOTHING!!! ... It is a treat to be able to choose one's time to say goodbye. Watcha want me to do - Bust out cryin!! NO FUN - NOT WORTH IT!!»
The Guardian has not verified if the letter was written by Epstein.
The document was unsealed this evening. Nicholas Tartaglione, Epstein's cellmate at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, said he found the note after an earlier suicide attempt by Epstein in July 2019, weeks before he was eventually found dead in his cell.

I love you @theguardian.com, but this isn’t reporting. This is transcribing. And just a tad pathetic. PS - they didn’t understand what they were facing. OR, if they did, there should probably be some questions concerning how they understood what they were facing.

It is expected to resume??? Like, yeah, it was an active shooter event, but we can’t let that stop Dondon from telling the press what he really thinks of them. I mean, look, the last one got his ear and it perfectly healed. It‘s just no big deal.

We are not a serious country.

Screenshot of an article from the Guardian stating: New acting US navy secretary Hung Cao once expressed fears that witches could take over Virginia
The surprise announcement on Wednesday that the US navy is now being led, during wartime, by a failed Republican Senate candidate from Virginia, Hung Cao, brought renewed attention to Cao's 2023 comments that that
"witchcraft" had "taken over" Monterey, California, and should not be allowed to spread to Virginia.
Speaking to Sean Feucht, a far-right pastor, in 2023, Cao said, on camera:
"There's a place in Monterey, California, called 'Lover's Point'. The original name was 'Lovers of Christ Point', but now it's become, they took out the Christ, it's 'Lover's Point', and it's really - Monterey's a very dark place now, a lot of witchcraft, and the Wiccan community has really taken over there. We can't let that happen in Virginia."

Girl’s schools? All cool. Civilian apartment building? Sure thing. But energy producing sites? Off Limits!

Screenshot from a Guardian news feed reading: Trump wants no more strikes on Iran's energy sites - report Donald Trump does not want any further strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure after Israel struck facilities linked to Iran's South Pars gas field today, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing US officials. The officials told the WSJ that Trump supported that attack as a message to Tehran over its blocking of the strait of Hormuz, but is now against any further attacks. But, according to the WST's report, the US president could be open to targeting more Iranian energy facilities, depending on whether Tehran impedes traffic in the critical waterway.

Just pulled this from a META site sponsored ad post promoting a Virginia Beach Dave Mathews show. Just remember: AI drank all your water and raised your electric bill to create this incredibly realistic and highly accurate image of a “guitar.”

A screenshot of an AI generated “acoustic guitar” laying on a blurry beach with a blurry stage that appears to be floating in the ocean beyond. The “guitar” has four strings, a fascinating version of a saddle, and appears to have the neck attached through the lower bout of the guitar, with the bridge glued on where the neck pocket should be.

Current Blooms: Bulbo auratum ‘Other World’ A compact little plant that has been blooming pretty consistently for several months now, mostly one spike at a time. No scent. Which might be a blessing as other Bulbo can smell of carrion. Quarter for size comparison. #Orchid

I like to screenshot beautiful little kitties that pop up on my feeds from local adoption events. I was cleaning out my photos and found these two shots right next to each other. One is an available kitten. The other is Laszlo. Did we make a mistake? 😂

A screenshot of two thumbnails in the photo app. On the left is a kitten half hidden under a blanket with grumpy, narrow eyes and his mouth open in chatter. The other is a sweet, glamor shot of a tiny little kitten.
