On the way home ran into a neighborhood bee enthusiast who had just coaxed a swarm of honeybees into a Chewy box fashioned into a swarm trap on the sidewalk on our street and we had a discussion with him about that and then he told Gremlin how good and clever and handsome she was thank you Portland🫡

She's a potty mouth and we can't take her anywhere unless we are actively walking, but we're working on it. She has a training session today. Happy adoption day, lil sweet dum-dum! #Pupdate

Read this when I was looking up the scientific name for this bird and it made me laugh out loud for some reason: "Goldfinches are among the strictest vegetarians in the bird world"

We're not even squirrel haters. They get other options in our yard. Just don't like them blocking the bird cam with their fuzzy bulk for 45 minutes at a time throughout the day.

We just saw a taping of Flightless Bird with @davidfarrier.bsky.social here where they had people submit "weirdest thing about your city," and someone said Portland's sticker culture is more colorful than other cities. And they meant it literally, as in other cities only slap tag in black and white?

It's true. I could have been gentler, too. But the internet is a cruel place. I'm sure they've already experienced far worse.

Oh please do. Just very bad, stolen content. I don't even remember what text was over the photo but it was the saddest low-effort not funny "Mondays amirite?" meme type phrase, and literally in Comic Sans.
