It's dental surgery day for Her Ladyship today and she is Not Happy about a) being hungry, b) being picked up, c) being in a carrier, and d) being at the vet. She is very well behaved, though, unlike some of the puppers here in the waiting room. Cross your fingers for a good outcome for Natasha!

This is excellent, I think!

Happy Giant Phallus Shaped Iceberg Floating In Conception Bay of Dildo, Canada Day to all who celebrate.

That checks out.

I just realized that I cut the grass and spent a whole afternoon in the garden afterwards and I'm not suffering any not!allergy effects and my head doesn't hurt! I guess those asthma meds are actually doing their job. *clings to inhaler and montelukast*

I'm mowing the grass in the garden for the first time this year (I'm taking it in sections so my not!allergies don't get too amped up and bring me down with a horrible migraine) and the cats keep coming outside and looking around forlornly like they don't recognize it.

“I can’t imagine how you can ship them—“ SOUNDS. LIKE. A. SKILL. ISSUE. 💅🏻

This birdeye speedwell* is far too pretty to mow, but alas, the grass around it is too tall and needs to go. I'm hoping it blooms again really soon. * at least that's what all the plant ID tools I've used call it, if it's not that specifically, it's some sort of speedwell

The vet is out of the tick/flea pills so Archie had to get scruffed so I could apply the drops. He was Big Mad about being handled and ran away, but came back approximately five seconds later when I called him and offered to buy his forgiveness with a tube of Churu chicken.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

so they're mycoblogging

hey everyone, wanna watch my tv show “the middleman” on streaming with no added charges?

Yes, the forest is haunted. But that's not a bad thing. The twig witches, pine goblins, and ancient moss draped horrors that shamble through the gloom are only trying to make connections. To be seen and heard. Just like all of us.

Argh. I just knocked a tray of tomato seedlings off a perilous perch and now I have no idea which one is which. At least I only lost two. The perils of #gardening! 🙃🍅🌱

Tell me it's #fountainpen cleaning day without telling me it's fountain pen cleaning day. (The Jinhao 10 writes very smoothly but it dries out very quickly and now I need to find my silicone grease to see if that helps with the loose capping problem.) #FountainPenSky

A question for UK/Canada/Australia/US writers/editors and, well, anyone in general – was there a shift at some point where the difference between "lie" (as in lie down) and "lay" (as in set something down, or the past tense of "lie") became nonexistent? #writingsky #editingsky

Tomato seedlings in various stages! Trying some new ones this year, but also Sungold and Big Cheef Stripes from last year, plus giving Brad's Atomic Grapes one more try with saved from a few years back. #gardening #tomatoes #springplanting

OMG THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY

I bought a little potted rose a while back to bring in some color to battle the winter greys, and I just repotted it into three separate roses because there were three of them in the pot! I'm going to let them stay in the pots over the summer and then maybe plant them in the garden in the fall.

Today's random research has been on FL-41 tinted glasses that are used by people with light-sensitivity. I really wish I could afford a pair – two days of sunlight-induced migraines has me dreading the next few months. Maybe I can get just a pair of non-rx sunglasses and try them... #migraine

I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold

That warm and fuzzy Canadian feeling of hearing "beauty" used as an interjection in a podcast. 😊

Bucky (ginger) doesn't really care for creamy snacks like Churus, but he appreciates the concept of snacks. Natasha (tabby) only tolerates Archie (tuxedo) getting this close when snacks are being distributed. #skycats

Two of my favorite things. We need more ads like this! #fountainpens #catsky #pensky

This is a safe space for my trans friends, and it always will be. www.hrc.org/campaigns/in...

20-some years ago I dated a truck driver. That first summer, we listened to Supertramp's "Breakfast in America" album pretty much on repeat. To this day, that album reminds me of that time. Memories are *weird.

Sometimes I miss the good old days of fandom_wank. Today is one of those days.

So what's the difference between mixing, mastering, and producing #podcast #audio?

Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas." Sadly, there's no way to avoid it unless you stop interacting with the world pretty much entirely, even here in Poland, where Wham's "Last Christmas" is the go-to song for the holidays (that one I avoid for Whammageddon reasons but I don't hate it).

My grandfather would have had so much less work weeding and prepping the veggie garden for spring planting if he'd had raised beds. These eight beds took me about two hours to clear and prep today and I was not focused on what I was doing.

I guess I should plant these out this weekend, since they're getting so big. The bonus is that it'll free up some room for other things! Just have to figure out where to put them. #gardening #springplanting
