@techphotoguy We should have a rain like this every couple of weeks, rather than having it rain nonstop for six months and then not rain at all for the next six.

Flying pigs are supposed to be the epitome of the impossible, and yet the grocery store is careful to specify that this is ground pork.

@queenofnewyork You can use your arms for a hoop.

When my then 7-year-old twin nieces wanted Violet to do the trick, their arms were too short -- but they could make a big enough hoop by working together.

It's funny when she's first learning a trick and has no idea what I want her to do. Frequent guesses include "jump at my face" or "stand absolutely still".

On “Freedom’s Eve,” Dec 1, 1863, the 1st Watch Night services took place as Americans waited news of the Emancipation Proclamation. At 12 AM, unrestrained joy erupted—3.5 million enslaved souls were “thenceforward, and forever free!" Union soldiers rushed to spread news, but not all gained freedom. It took 2.5 years—June 19, 1865—JUNETEENTH—-for over 250,000 black Americans still held in bondage in TX to taste freedom.

@bot_wg English alt text: a plastic gallon jug sitting in the dust, at an angle where it looks like a face, with the handle as its nose.

@queenofnewyork She'll watch your back while you do the heist.

(And by "heist" she means "get treats out of the cupboard".)

@DamonWakes @futurebird The has the same limitation. The Imperium has a network of "xboats" to deliver the mail pony Express style.
