The owl is dead. They murdered him to set us free! Run now before he rises from the dead to oppress us once more!

You might kid, but I assure you, as somebody from Missouri, we are not kidding when it comes to the truth of your statement. We do have a cool arch though.
Please send help.

Same. I would very much like to block images as well as words. There’s even just some non-meme images that I see used way too much. I’d rather the algorithm promote original content to me.

Around here I can watch Fox News while walking down the street just by looking in the windows at what people have on tv. It’s kind of depressing when you consider they’ve chosen that over literally anything else they could be doing with their time.

How very unprofessional of you to not include a bunch of raging nutjobs in your commentary about how they know as much as Jon Snow.

I once had a mother duck and her ducklings come up to my door to inquire about my lack of refilling the feeder.

I think my favorite one from recently is a person being all excited their thing was worth so much. In reality they’d have been better off if grandma had invested in bonds as, with inflation, it was worth what grandma paid for it.

At least you have an excuse. I hurt my back by just existing. #pityparty

Happy birthday. My son was born the moment the Golden Girls theme song started playing on the tv.

Is an excellent read. I’m pretty sure I was the first person to read my library’s copy.

Meanwhile the coyotes around here minding their own business walking by the lake and the geese are all, You fucking what mate?! Absolutely fucking not! Go on, git you mangy mammal, your kind’s not welcome here. I’ll do your head in!

This may be the greatest thing I discovered this week. Now if only they also had this feature for images.

I was going to make a toasted ravioli joke, but there was no toasted ravioli gif and I had to deal with the existential horror and ennui that goes along with the recognition of how far Bluesky has fallen for its slight of the T-Rav.

Glad you can put being a successful author behind you and finally bring your talents to eloquently describing the majesty of Mo Salah.

I am unreal. Thus, I have abilities of the ethereal realm and can ignore the pesky limitations of physics. And yet the cat ignores me.

Hard to institute the #Jeffocracy without subordinate Jeffs to award Jeffdoms to. #Jeff

My neighbor bought a fancy new riding lawn mower and seems to enjoy mowing. I keep hoping he’ll see my constant waiting until I have to mow grass and take it upon himself to increase his mowing enjoyment time.

Jeffrey was the 486 most popular baby name in the U.S. in 2023. This is an unacceptable rate and will only further harm the nation by having less Jeffs. #Jeff

As with all survival games the secret sauce is punch tree, receive wood. Beyond that is just endless toil and dinosaur slaves.

Random bullshit for you to learn today. Moose are real. Alaska is not a great place to visit if you are Moose blind. Always take a seeing moose dog when visiting up north.

Good to know you’re focusing on the important things. Plenty of authors on here, not enough fourth tier English football commentary.
