What happens to the US government when Putin dies? Does it pass to the next Russian president, or is it put up for auction?

It must be wildlife Wednesday! 3 hours after seeing the deer, I happened upon this tortoise by the side of the road. I'd have got a better pic, but the dog with me got wildly excited about it and would have chomped it given half a chance, so we went our separate ways

The more I see javalina, the more I'm convinced they are merely a badly drawn mass delusion. A rectangular block of pigness with a big triangle head on one end and comically twiggy little legs underneath. A sentient coffee table with a snout and an attitude

I'm not saying that everyone that plays golf is a wanker and I'm not saying that everyone who doesn't play golf in not a wanker but I am saying wankers play golf

Random songs appear in my head sometimes. Today it was "Bright Eyes" which reminded me of when I was around 10 and my school decided it would be great to get us all together & watch Watership Down. I guess they wanted us all traumatized. It worked. Those rabbits haunted my dreams.

Zelenskyy showing how you stand up to bullies - take note Macron, Starmer, et al! I wish the rest of the world would unite and collectively tell the current US administration to go fuck themselves. Give them the isolationism they crave (from someone who lives in the US and will suffer as a result)

Devastating lives and no doubt prematurely ending many, all to give more tax cuts to corporations and rich people - who already don't pay what little tax they owe due to loopholes and dodgy accounting. Society has gone horribly wrong - time a space rock blasted us back to the stone age for a reset

In the 8 years I've lived here this is only the second gila monster I've seen and this one was a biggie!

I am so fucking tired of adults behaving like spoiled children- I know that you will always be mommy's special lil prince or daddy's precious lil princess but the rest of us are under no obligation to share that opinion - you are not fucking special! So kindly grow the fuck up or stop wasting oxygen

My five achievements this week - • Did not go back to sleep when the alarm woke me (except that one day) • Got to work on time for all 8 of my shifts • Was polite and personable to all humans I interacted with • Remembered to eat regularly • Kept the cone on the Doberman almost all week

We're all going to hell in a handcart, but the sunrise was pretty this morning so there's that

Day 4 of my ongoing battle with a Doberman about whether his cone of shame stays on. I told him on day 1 that he's smart but I'm smart with opposable thumbs so I will win this - he took that personally! Victory is not yet assured but I persevere

I feel like this saguaro has gone a little overboard on the whole growing arms thing, like it decided it wants to be a tree

It would please my brain if the past tense of split was splat, but as that already has another meaning, maybe we could use spult as the past tense of split

"Partly cloudy", they said. This is the Tucson version of that - no use to man nor beast but kinda pretty

I've crunched the numbers and it turns out I have an alarming trade deficit with circle k so I will be imposing my own 25% tariff on the fuel I buy from them. They owe me a lot of money, they will pay! Can I be in charge of foreign policy now?

I'm seriously considering giving up the day job to become a wildlife photographer after capturing this stunning image of two coyotes - they really were there, honestly

Given the current rash of sequels to gen x movies, I would like to see a new mall rats that's a bunch of old people doing their morning walk around their local mall in the hour before it opens, exactly the way they do in my local mall but with Hollywood panache

Got home from work last night and got caught up on the news. It's abhorrent but not at all surprising. Apparently a large portion of the country thinks this is preferable to having a woman run the show so nazis gonna nazi, the rich get richer and everyone else gets to suffer - fucking awesome!

I left England 20 years ago and have spent the last 7 years living in the Sonoran desert. I now find myself missing English winter. Cold, damp, dark, muddy, miserable English winter that I used to hate. I think the desert heat has broken my mind!

Why is there anyone who is still shocked that some people never face consequences? It's abhorrent but it's standard practice. We are too divided to come together to make the kind of changes necessary so ce la vie I guess. Justice may be blind but it sure as shit loves the smell of money!

I am aware that we, as a civilization, have bigger problems and I may be a tad irrational in my extreme passion on the subject, but jfc can we please serve potatoes (in their many wonderful forms but especially when fried) sans skin? FUCKING PEEL THE FUCKING SPUDS!!! please

A "life ain't so bad" moment - 8:30am, temp around freezing, the mountains look magnificent in the sunshine and the only sounds I hear are bird song and a bunch of coyotes yip-yip-yowling away in the distance. Life ain't so bad

Alright, I guess I'm giving this a go now despite my insistence that I do not give in to peer pressure 🤷‍♀️
