This is Lola. She loves to go for a ride in the car.

But…

Her favorite thing is actually returning home. She runs to the door, jolts inside, and jumps around all excited that the people she was already with are now home.

@mycrowgirl def. It would be more accurate if at least two of those bookshelves were filled with vinyl.

Someone shared a low-quality meme of a laugh/cry emoji. Great idea, but not usable. So I custom designed my own version with care. And it’s hi-res.

(My friend @paninid calls it a “lolsob,” which I love. He’s funny like that.)

Here’s a PNG for you. If you want an SVG to add to your system’s emoji library, you can grab it from my @omgdotlol CDN:

Enjoy lolsobbing!

Saw this bumper sticker. If every human being obliged this sentiment, the world would level up to infinity.

I’m a Jewish Atheist. Didn’t know Jewish identity can be ethnic without Judaism? There may be other things that surprise you about us.

You can read more in my piece about Jewish American Heritage Month:

I also stand with Palestine. As do many Jews. Most of us aren’t Zionists, who are religions extremists.

Let us learn about, celebrate, and love one another.

@kims disadvantaged dodgeball matches ahead.

Nissin ramen commercial. Based on what I see here, it seems…I dunno…spicy?

Psst…

Hey, journalists. Yeah, those of you licking boots right now. THIS is how you write a headline.

Thank you, Michael Tomasky.

Whoa. A security cam in Myanmar captured an earthquake fault rupture live. This may be the first ever caught on camera?

Watch the fence-line on the right. And note the power-line tower behind it.

@lavaeolus more:

“President Donald Trump…dismissed the top copyright official in the nation, a position traditionally overseen by the legislative branch.

Federal law provides that the Register of Copyrights be appointed by and supervised by the Librarian of Congress. The previous Librarian of Congress, Carla Hayden, was fired Thursday by the White House with no reason provided in a two sentence email. This action once again tramples on Congress’s Article One authority”

To all of the republicans who voted for a lying, racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, ableist, homophobic, transphobic, rapist so they could lower their food bill: fuck you.

Last month we paid $52.99 for our dog food.

This month it costs $97.99.

@cwebber Will this be recorded and posted to the same PeerTube account?

Regarding Meta’s camera glasses (not calling them “smart” because they’re not).

In 2013 I worked on these glasses. Not Meta’s, but an Intel version. We killed the project after generative research. Why? Because it became clear how invasive they would be.

We couldn’t find a way around that. So ethics said stop.

Meta says they don’t care. Of course.

Every day for 10 days I’m gonna share something that brings me joy.

Why? To remind myself why it’s worth fighting fascism. And I hope that it brings a little delight to your timeline as well.

Why 10 days? 🤷🏻♂️

Let’s be joyful together. Please feel welcome to add a delight from your day to the mix.

Day 1:
Multigrain Cheerios with fruit and walnuts, with vanilla soy milk.

@kims then they should have fucking voted for him. Or anyone but a fascist psychopath.

It’s wild how all the ignorant people are waking up now that their own decisions are having a personal impact.

@kims “Dracula.” I laughed. And then I was like “why you gotta do Dracula like that?”

@kims fuck them. Forever. Spineless boot lickers.

@kims I’ll queue this up, too. I added her feed to my reader. So now I’ll see her stuff regularly. Thank you for putting her on my radar.

@kims I’ve never heard of Allie or her comics/writing. I look forward to reading that long essay. Thank you so much for the well wishes and the link.
