oh my lord, the LABRADORS license plate bolted on there is either the cherry on top or the last nail in the coffin (take your pick)
@nikkuneko didn't even notice! I was too busy trying to work up a yoga mat joke/reference about the flooring...
@ba hah, oh man!
spoiler alert, the dogs' names are probably NAMASTE and COEXIST

@nikkuneko I was going to go with Arlo and Woody, but you're probably right.
@ba oh man, you may have won that round, i'm dying
It's wild how this seems vaguely familiar (from visits to my Grandma back in the 70's).

What looks like a giant steel long, triangular shape, with many windows on the one side. It is perked on the very edge of a large mountain, with a sheer drop next to it.

I love your title because you just know location scouts are drooling to put a James Bond antagonist at this site.

matchbox cover for "tokyo jazz club" with an illustration of an octopus floating above a drum kit, with three sticks
Saved to T-shirt ideas!
this is excellent
I'm wondering about that detached arm at the bottom, partially behind the snare drum. Did it drum an arm loose?
Looks great.
(Probably AI though)
(Probably AI though)
Yeah, the loose arms do seem to imply a nonhuman artist, but my wife reads some Japanese and says the katakana on the side does phonetically say Tokyo Jazz Club and the kanji at the bottom looks like a plausible address in Tokyo. Google Maps shows no current club in Tokyo of that name.

an impressively long table absolutely full of cookies and cakes and little numnums of all description. It is under a tent and the sun is shining. People are eating numnums
An older friend of mine had a big party nominally about her house's bicentennial but really just to hang out and eat indecent amounts of snacks. I showed up two hours into a three hour party and this was "all" that was left. 😂 House is in the background, it's a nice house. This lady calls me whenever she needs to update her email signature file.
Oh you Eaterners! I brag about my 150 year old house out here in the Rockies but 200... for America, dang! That's purdy old.
I am loving the sense of community in this pic.
Oh, I'll have the whole little orange topped cake! Wonderous!
I had a party like that when my house turned 100, but the snack table wasn’t nearly that long
200!
Our building turns 100 this year and we’re having a party, and we are all excited about that!
Our spread is not gonna look that fabulous though, like wjcstp said.

Everything tastes better with a little age. 🖤
@wjcstp well, when you have the 200th party you can double the table length accordingly 😏
And here mine is only 126 years old. 😭

A Nankeen Night Heron, standing on a partially submerged tree branch, looking into mossy water for a feed.
Did a Bird Watching Walk at the local lake (Herdsman Lake) and had a great time.
ooh, self guided or are they offering tours? I'm def moving into my old man bird watching phase. Bird Count coming up on the 19th of this month, can't wait
@Argie https://www.wagouldleague.com.au/event-de... was the one we did. Couldn't see an October one, but it should be up soon. It was really good. They have binoculars to borrow as well if you don't have any.

I... I feel like I've stumbled into a weird timeline.
I had no idea "Idiocracy" was a documentary.

Idiocracy was not a documentary, but it is being treated like an instruction manual.

A brown, rocky slope sits under a bright yellow sky. Extending left from the top of the slope is a platform, held up by supports. Sitting at the end of the platform is a large, greenish, potato-shaped creature tapping at a laptop. The creature also looks like a dwelling, since where its face would be is an arched, empty window. A small mailbox and a chimney stick out from its back. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

A tan dog laying on a red upholstered chair next to a woman in a T-shirt and shorts. The dog is intently looking at the camera.
I post this mostly to scream into the void. Our dear dog, Pippa, was diagnosed with a tumor on her spleen several weeks ago. This is basically a death sentence, but we were very lucky to find out about it before it burst. We were given the opportunity to give her a peaceful goodbye on Saturday, the 5th.
On the 3rd, I got a call from my mother that my dad was in the emergency room. The cancer he has been fighting for 18 months had started affecting his lungs and he was having trouble breathing. They decided to put him on hospice, and he returned home on the 4th with a pile of morphine.
We said goodbye to our dog and then packed up to drive down to our parents the next day. There is still dog fur all over the apartment. My father has rapidly declined, from needing a little help to move between the living room and the bed to now being barely there. I'll spare all the gory details in between.
We're looking at hours to days left for him, but my wife and I have decided we need to go home after two weeks with little sleep and acting as the primary support for my mother. Other family is arriving tomorrow. We're expecting to return in a few days, but we need to swap clothes and grab some essentials we forgot in our haste.
It's been a time

I'll give my pups a few extra scratches behind the ears tomorrow. And I'll call my folks this weekend.
Love to you and yours. Loads of long distance hugs from internet friends. Sorry that you’re going through it. ❤️
yeah i took my dog to the foot of the Rainbow Bridge before a two week stay seeing my father to his.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ach. At moments like this you need all the fortitude you can muster.
Taking care of dying loved ones is such a labour of love...

Much love and comfort for you and yours from this Internet friend.
That's a lot in a very short frame of time. Remember to take care of yourselves through this as well.

Hugs, friend 💙
two terrible heartbreaks, my condolences :(

Aw.
We had to say goodbye to one of our cats yesterday, so I feel you. My deepest sympathies.
Och, I'm sorry
💙
Hugs to everyone on here who has lost a pet or a parent or is caring for ailing loved ones. That's a lot of hugs.

Another card completed for my upcoming Feral Path Tarot™. This is the Queen of Wands featuring occult author, Ivy Corvus. She was great to collaborate with and we found out we both share the same animal ally: black panthers. I hope you like this interpretation of this fiery card. Created entirely in Adobe Illustrator.

illustration art of a mummified frog. it somehow looks like a sort of quadrupedal vehicle - the spine/ribcage is the seating area, the eyes are the headlights.

VamoLá played samba for Luminata, marching around Green Lake in lights for thousands of equally-lit Seattleites. I wore one of the 4 UFO abduction rigs I built years ago for the family to wear at BRC (it still works!) and played so hard I broke a drumhead.

Two photos of a wild rabbit in a garage workshop, one closer than the other.
I was tinkering around this afternoon in my garage workshop — nice music playing, fiddling with some electronics - when I saw a small shape moving in my peripheral vision. My first thought was 'Oh no, one of the cats got out', but then I turned and saw that our resident yard bunny had dropped in for a visit. He seemed to be just curious about the space, and me. He hopped all around the garage, sniffing everything for about 5 minutes, gave me one last look-over, then high-tailed it back into the yard.

Photo of two abutting signs with the same color and background, so they appear to be a single sign. Read separately they say "GREEK YOGURT" and NATHAN'S FOOT LONG HOT DOGS". Read as a single sign, it appears to read "GREEK NATHAN'S FOOT LONG YOGURT HOT DOGS"

No coming back from Greek Nathan
I trust in Greek Nathan
but what if the bun was cake?
and the condiments were fruit?
It's all Greek Nathan's to me

Financial Times headline: How should investors position for the robot apocalypse?
subtitle:
The end of human existence might be bad for financial markets
subtitle:

something something but for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders
I think it’d be great if they positioned themselves on a convenient 27th story ledge.
Bent over, pants down, cheeks spread.
Buy logical paradoxes, fools!
The fun part is even a best-outcome post-scarcity AI revolution would still be an apocalypse for financial markets.

That's one hell of a lede tho ...
Just let the Boston Robotics dogs do their job. Any position will do.

hello from the last two li’l guys i left around the office
wrote a long ramble, decided to spare y’all for today. maybe the whole spiel another time.
long-short, today gave me two sharp reminders why i need to move on from my job (yet another sudden teammate layoff, followed by witnessing yet another excruciating bullying by the CEO in a meeting)
y’all got any vibes, job-hunting tips, or just general encouragement to get my ass on the moving-on-with-your-life express, put ‘em here
thanks for always listening and supporting.

I don’t have any magic job hunting tips, but good vibes for finding escape velocity and a better direction

I would recommend hiringcafe.com over Indeed/LinkedIn. The site scrapes tons of sites and provides a direct (or as direct as possible) link to submit application.
My other thought is to act now. Working in that type of environment is emotionally draining, and (at least this is true for me) being so drained makes it hard to act. Besides, think of searching/applying as an F U to the bully.

Fingers crossed, Nik.
I agree that you should act now. I worked at a place with a chaotic owner/CEO and knew I needed to leave for months and eventually wound up rage quitting with nothing secured and it sucked having to find work while my bank account was quickly draining and the future was uncertain.
Start with work that aligns with your values and may fill your cup rather than drain it. Tough in this world, but worth a shot.
Send resumes and/or letters to orgs that you would like to work for, even if they don't have roles posted.
Take breaks when the search feels draining. Don't let the bastards grind you down.

There are so many great places out there. All the companies suck, but there are places where the ceo is sufficiently distant that the problems they cause are overridden by the teammates you work with.
I hope you find somewhere great!
