Panel 3: forg holds the dollar bill. The man in suit walks off the frame. He reminds forg “don’t spend it all at once”
Panel 4: we see now that forg didn’t really listen to his advice. He stands in front of a building labeled “things you don’t need store”, dollar bill still in hand ready to be spent

Motion-blurred, fish-eyed photo of a tiger *leaping* out of the back of pickup truck, where a carrying container has been opened, onto hard-packed earth, its enormous front paws just slightly off the ground; a few other parked trucks are visible at the horizon

@davidl Stolen from replies to Derf's post, I admit.
There is a more reassuring photo of her along the nearby wetland, or river.

A clear desktop
This is the first time this desk has been clean in about ten years. It normally has my 3D printer, but I made way for a snapmaker u1 I ordered, which should arrive tomorrow if I refresh the delivery status page enough.

4yr old: Sorry, I parted
Me: Do you need to go potty?
4yr old: No, sometimes I fart because I'm watching a great show or movie, or I'm having a great day.

<Bob the angry flower is pictured in a huge crowd with a nice seat at a concert. He looks happy. Wistful, even>
<the below lyrics are shown piece by piece over four panes while Bob's expression changes from happy toward boredom>
...invisible airwaves crackle with life… …sailing into destiny… …closer to the heart… ...ill-equipped to act with insufficient tact… …fly by night away from here…
<close up shot of Bob's face; eyes bugged out in shock>
150 minutes into this 3-hour Rush concert, bob comes to a startling realization:
<Bob's thought bubble reads>
I DON'T LIKE RUSH!!!

Just had lunch with a friend who flew in from Denmark just to see them
@scruss Just saw a video last night of local news interviewing people waiting to attend a BTS concert. The stadium was in eastern Massachusetts. People interviewed were from Canada, various parts of the US including Hawaii, and Europe. I'd say two thirds of them mentioned having seen them in other cities on this tour which were each at least a thousand miles away.
I have a friend who worked for a concert promoter. She would often get good tickets for shows for nothing, and she had tickets for Rush at the Forum. I was never a big Rush fan, but hey: free show in a big arena!
I spent most of the concert admiring the lighting. Rush was just background noise.

One of my favorite Japanese jazz bands is Soil & "Pimp" Sessions, self-described "death jazz". It's probably the crimey-ist jazz I know.

Finished the steps to the backyard
alt text
A photo of a set of five small brown stairs leading down from a gray retaining wall. At the top of the stairs is a small, black chicken.
Last year we had a new deck, driveway, and patio built. It kind of changed the pathways into our backyard, necessitating these steps. Over the course of a couple days my wife and I built them. I’m sore and tired, but I think they turned out pretty well (and mostly level and square😅).
Wise move to let the chicken test them first.
excellent work!

A photo of a man wearing a mlkshk shirt and drinking coffee, the mug obscuring some of his face. In the background are trees with green leaves.
The temperature has dipped in Denver for the last few days and the back deck has been the best place for morning coffee.
Nice shirt

We sent this as our invitation... in a tube. It's 3 feet tall. We have it in a frame in our living room and everything :). My friend, Brodsky, who is the bravest graphic artist I have yet to meet helped me crush the design. A friend of ours, Elke was a CD at an agency where she had these printed for us. We stuck them in tubes and USPSed them out for a couple of bucks each.
It was a wonderful wedding. We had $0 to spend on it. Most of the money wound up going to the New Leaf Cafe. They were in Fort Tryon Park in way north NYC. They hadn't opened yet, so we cut a deal with them using us as a practice event with a buffet with a pay-bar. We put goldfish in take home bowls on the tables instead of flowers. Heather found a gorgeous thrift store gown. We used the venues speakers with a random playlist and that was that.
A friend of ours who was a freelance philosopher and now teaches at Oxford, gave a dissertation on marriage that I cannot remember a word of because I was holding my new wife's hand and sweating in my suit jacket in the usual sweaty August of the city. Fuck it was hot. But that just led to people giving up the usual wedding stuffiness. A lot of clothes went missing almost immediately.
We gave everyone point and shoot cameras, called in a favor for some portraits and table shots. The photographer completely failed, saying "I've never been at an event where I couldn't get people to stop laughing long enough to take a group photo". He was pretty drunk when he said it.
We had a cake with Wonder Woman and The Tick on top that we brought. We had totally forgotten about it, but saw it when we started happily saying goodbye to everyone.

A billion congratulations, my friend. What a glorious artifact.
Yes much love, forever!!!!
That's just so lovely. Thank you for sharing!
