Panel 1:
An adult stands in the doorway looking at a child who has built a flower out of Lego blocks. The adult says "Have you tried building something practical?"
Panel 2:
The child looks proudly at their new Lego creation which is the adult standing holding a sign that says "I AM PROUD OF YOU"
I'm not crying, you're crying.

a self-portrait of a smiling person wearing a pink hoodie and carrying a transgender pride flag on a flagpole over their shoulder
A bit late to the selfie party on trans day of visibility but I spent that morning rush hour on Seattle's Jose Rizal Bridge waving my flag at all the east-siders commuting into the city. Many positive honks and waves, and one bike commuter who gave me a thumbs down (??!?).
I hope that bike commuter gets a flat.
Here's some balancing energy! https://mltshp.com/p/1QX5T

That biker deserved a flagpole through the spojes, but that's just vindictive me.

I know it’s just a typo but I choose to believe that “spo-hays” is Spanish slang for some anatomical bit or another and that makes me giggle.

A girl in a blue shirt smiles amidst symbols like a rainbow, smiling flowers, a sunflower, and an infinity loop. Reflective text reads, “12 y.o. me, who knew she was different, but wouldn’t know why until 30 years later... Happy Autism Awareness Day.” The mood is celebratory and contemplative.
Happy Autism Awareness Day!

I called her Process Leia and my aged twenty-something daughter firmly corrected me:
"That is ~GENERAL~ Organa."
"That is ~GENERAL~ Organa."
Didn't the general post this picture before about how she was high on coke when this was taken? Not the best time to climb around on balconies above parking lots.

"dude, they call me 'Weird Al' and you're questioning my taste in movies?"
"Everyone knows it ought to be 'Real Genius', Al."
@ardgedee @rogrtheshrubber I really like how polite Al was with introducing himself and assuming Val Kilmer wouldn’t know who he was.
@jive_t Every interview with Al that I've read and watched has left me with the sense that he's very self-aware guy who knows where his career as a wacky musician puts him on the celebrity hierarchy.
@ardgedee I'd enjoyed the Amoeba Records "What's in My Bag?" series for years before finding out it started when a clerk saw Al shopping and asked if he'd take a few minutes after checkout to talk about what he bought. National treasure, says I!
@rogrtheshrubber 1000% agree!

touch doesn't just create a file, if a file exists, touching that file will change its modification date without changing the file.

A middle aged man with long brown hair and goatee stands in front of Union Station in Denver, a train station with a neoclassical design of off-white stone and rounded arches. The man wears dark blue jeans and a black t-shirt bearing the symbols of a rose and a broken chain. In a gothic font, the shirt reads “Protect trans folks”

Photoshopped image of Cory Booker as Olenna Tyrel with the subtitle "Tell Strom Thurmond. I want him to know it was me."
I made a dumb meme.
Impressive for Booker; I couldn't have done it. Glad to see it taken away from Thurmond, may he rot in hell. But I also hope this goes beyond a 25-hour speech and ignites more fire in the opposition.

Sure is weird that republicans can filibuster just by saying they're going to but democrats have to physically mortify themselves for it to count. Must be in the constitution somewhere.
@carnivorouskale I was also wondering about that

A vacation from my vacation
Ernest Hemingway something something And The Sea
I was just thinking, I sure need a vacation from my vacation from my vacation. Then I checked the HR portal and it said I had 7.66*10^18 vacation days and I thought, I sure need a vacation from my vacation from my vacation from my vacation.
magnificent vibes~

A black woman stands in the foreground in the front right. She is wearing what looks like a schoolgirl's black skirt, white shirt, and black tie, with two homemade giant cardboard chainsaw blades tie the light of her arms sticking out in front of her. On her head is a sort of helmet, with another chainsaw blade on it. The blades are fleked with red blood.She's in a nice, suburban-looking living room, with her a possible sibling in the background, and her mom sitting on the couch, both staring at the camera
Monster cosplay.

A cedarwood garden bed, backed by a small arbor, in a side yard, on an early Spring day.
Just finished this weekend, rebuilding an arbor and garden bed for my wife, alongside our driveway. It was a blast to make real use of my newly-remodeled garage workshop, ripping, cutting, gluing and screwing together an arbor from cedar planks and sticks. Then a bit of digging to partially bury and place the garden bed boundaries (now level).
Our old arbor and bed were pre-built or kits, and the wood was just crumbling after a few years. Lots of lessons learned. Making arches well is difficult - "measure twice cut once" for me should be more like "measure thrice...". Anyhow, on to the next project!

nice work!
That arbor looks amazing!
This looks wonderfully made and very pretty too!

That's me on the left. All of 17 years old. I can't remember the dude on the right.
The guy in the middle is Brian, aka Sunbear, my oldest friend. This was for all intents and purposes my first ever Grateful Dead show; https://archive.org/details...

June 6? I was there too. For me, the best Stella Blue I've ever experienced.
Love that you both went to the same show 40 years ago. That's pretty rad.

Andrea and I were at several of the same shows between '91 and '95. She toured extensively. Just took us 30 years to meet ☺️.

Wow I think I was at that show too.
Maybe you saw me - yellow VW van?
All intensive purposes, as I like to say
@bug138 We had a yellow one too! But it turned brown at some point.
I'm not a woman, but I feel like each of these three dudes represent some boyfriend stage most women go through at some point in life.

A bearded, baldheaded man wearing glasses. His t-shirt has a drawing a a large possum protecting a smaller one colored with the stripes of the Trans Flag. Text around the picture reads "PROTECT TRANS YOUTH." Not sure why I'm squinting like that.
Thank you for being a classroom ally! I know that you know what this means.

A pen-and-ink illustration of a tall, thin woman with glasses and a short haircut, wearing a long-sleeved shirt, plaid skirt, and flats, and carrying a purse. She's looking at the reader and has a neutral (possibly slightly miffed) expression. She looks somewhat like an adult version of the Peanuts character Marcie.

This could function as a portrait of a large percentage of my female presenting friends.
As a little kid who was into "Peanuts" and other comic strips, happening across a book of his single-panel comics about teenagers was weirdly disorienting in an uncanny-valley sort of way.
As a 6'6" 17 year old I felt like the male equivalent of this.
@joost Me too, I was 6'5" and 140 lbs.
