I saw this t-shirt in the wild a couple of days ago. I wanted to tell the wearer that I liked it, but decided not to risk it.

A black t-shirt is shown, with white text stating "Some Things Are Better Left Alone. Like Me, For Instance."

I was scrolling along when I came across this picture. For a few seconds I was very confused as to how someone else got one of my pictures that I had even posted yet. Of course, then I realized it wasn't one of my pictures. :)

A brown and white American Pit Bull Terrier mix is wedged between a green couch and the back of my jean-clad legs. This is one of her favorite ways to sleep. #pittsky #dogsofbluesky #pitbull

Pablo, Darlah, and Kashmir.

This is just too hilarious. It's from this series of dog photography winners www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

What appears to be a Greyhound or Whippet dog is looking directly at the camera, over the shoulder of a bearded man holding it. It's tongue is out and it looks a little crazy.
The statement from the photographer says ‘True identity is often found in what makes us unique, rather than in perfect symmetry. In this portrait, I wanted to capture the quiet strength of a dog who has lost an eye but none of his spirit. By using a minimalist, fine-art approach, I focused the viewer’s attention on the depth of his remaining gaze – a gaze that speaks of wisdom and survival. This image is not a study of loss but a celebration of dignity; a reminder that a single eye is more than enough to reflect a soul full of life and character.’

Indeed. I spent a lot of time trying to get a picture of Darlah doing just that pose. This is the best I ever got, and it's nowhere near as cute as how she looked while she was doing it.

Found this little guy in my kitchen this morning. I have no idea how it got into the house. I moved it outside before one of my dogs decided it was something worth eating.

The "trending" topics seem to think that Meta's AI glasses are being used in a way that was not intended by Meta. Sure. I would argue they're doing exactly what was intended by Zuckerberg.

Had a new experience yesterday. I got to watch (and badly photograph) a male cardinal feeding its chick. The first pictures had to be taken from inside the house to avoid scaring them off. I was then able to get a couple of better shots from outside.

Two views of my good boy, Pablo.

Heck, mine would do that with her tail. My current one that was recently wearing a cone drew blood on my shin. But, now you have to pay the "dog tax" and post a picture of your dog. Here's the two I referenced.

If you look at the bottom right of the image you posted, it says oil sales.

The US is lifting all sanctions on Iranian oil for the next 60 days during peace negotiations, a tremendous windfall that gives the Islamic dictatorship an extra $10 billion to rebuild its regime.

That sounds like the DACC program. I adopted my most recent dog, Pablo Neruda, from them immediately after he returned from a DogVenture with someone else. I heard them talking about how it went and how he was a "social butterfly." :)

This little bugger stole and ate a whole pint of blueberries that I had on the counter drying off after I washed them. He showed no remorse whatsoever. Now I have to put them up high enough that he can't get at them.

Not all deer. The ones in my neighborhood won't budge unless you get almost close enough to touch them. Even then they only move away a few feet at a time, until they finally decide you're not going to quit bothering them.

A white-tailed deer stands among a number of green plants next to a brick house. It's been eating the plants, and wants to know why you're having a problem with that.

I can toss a treat to Darlah while we're on a walk and moving. She'll most likely catch it, even though it's coming from the side. Pablo can't catch anything you toss to him, except by accident, when he's sitting right in front of me. It's amazing to see the difference between the two.
