a pine marten, stretched out from a deck railing with its fore paws on a bird feeder, looking at the camera with a guilty look on its face
Couldn't figure out why we were refilling the bird feeder so much, then I caught the culprit in the act (a pine marten).

At least it's mugging for the camera!
“Oh hi, thanks for the snacks!”

Strangelove still with the subtitle "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here. This is the war room!"
It’s so frustrating to me how frequently I quote this scene (and this movie in general) with no one catching the reference
@BennyTheIcepick I quoted Alec Baldwin's rant from "Glengarry Glen Ross" once, and coworkers had no idea what I was talking about.
I used this quote just yesterday in a(nother) rant about the duplicity of the Trump administration.
I occasionally say, "That's the sort of blinkered, philistine pig ignorance I've come to expect from you non-creative garbage.", and people just stare at me. Some take it personally. "Sir, this is a Wendy's."

Black and white photograph of a Black teenager in glasses wearing a dark crew-neck sweater, smiling slightly at the camera, against a neutral background. It may be a yearbook photo.

"On March 2, 1955, she was arrested at the age of 15 in Montgomery, Alabama, for refusing to give up her seat to a white woman on a crowded, segregated bus.... Colvin was one of four plaintiffs in the first federal court case filed by civil rights attorney Fred Gray on February 1, 1956, as Browder v. Gayle, to challenge bus segregation in the city. In a United States district court, Colvin testified before the three-judge panel that heard the case. On June 13, 1956, the judges determined that the state and local laws requiring bus segregation in Alabama were unconstitutional."
Because Colvin was a teenage mother, her role in the story of Montgomery was downplayed in favor of Rosa Parks' (Parks being respectably married and an NAACP activist). She later moved to Detroit and New York, where she worked as a nurse's aide, and never quite forgave people for leaving her out of the history books. Colvin died yesterday at the age of 86. Rest in power.

That’s about as far as I got in C64 basic.

vintage picture of a woman pushing a push-button light switch with the caption "I toucher a button ... and it was the happiest day of my life
I mean… I get it. My grandparents didn’t have a flush toilet in their house until just before my parents were married. There were still kerosene lanterns in use in the second floor of the house throughout my childhood.

a ridiculously small fighter jet - a bulbous, shiny-silver-aluminum-skinned airplane looking like a glass bubble cockpit perched atop a bean-shaped engine with two stubby wings and truncated tail fins (emblazoned with the U.S. Air Force logo of a white 5-pointed star on a navy blue circle and red/white/blue-striped bar) - sits atop a yellow black-wheeled storage rack on a concrete runway bordered by green grass.
Meant to be deployed from (and somehow recovered by) a U.S. bomber, it has no actual onboard landing gear.

A man wearing the same shirt in two photos take. Roughly 25 years apart.
Practically Identical photos of me, taken more than a quarter century apart. I haven’t changed at all, right? RIGHT?!?
Wiser...
The smirk is more pronounced, other than that very little change
@0y3ahSansAcut3 DEFINITELY not
You seem to have gotten a little younger, actually!
Well, in the second one you appear to be looking into the camera. Are there more differences? Are we playing for points?
You mean you've been future Will Arnett this whole time? Hell of a way to find out.

A watercolor painting meant to evoke the look of a Japanese woodblock print. A samurai wearing a blue and gray kimono and hakama is leaping in the air holding a banjo by the neck like a sword over his head. He%u2019s about to bring it smashing down on a second samurai on the ground in kimono and hakama patterned in yellow, orange and red who holds a banjo in a low position at his waist. The background is a small hill with a tree on it with water and mountains in the distance.

I'm in Southern Chile getting ready for an 8-10 day bicycle trip across Tierra del Fuego, and was feeling like if I'm down this way, I really ought to go see Torres del Paine. Logistics on that are more than I wanted to throw on top of everything already, so I booked a guided day trip. When I say "day trip", we're talking 18 or so hours. Was definitely worth it, and honestly cheaper than me renting a car and all that.
Anyhow, this is Cascada del Rio Paine, with bonus "towers" (aka the pokey massif of the various peaks of Torres del Paine, aka mountains you think of when you think of southern Patagonia) are in the back if you zoom in a bit.

I'm down in southern Chile getting ready for an 8-10 cycling trip in Tierra del Fuego. I figured if I'm down this way, I really ought to see Torres del Paine, but the logistics were more than what I wanted to throw in top of all the other too many logistics. Anyhow I booked a guided day trip that was well worth it and likely cheaper if I'd have tried to throw this all together myself.
So here's Cascada del Rio Paine, with bonus "towers" (aka this pokey mountains you think of when you think of southern Patagonia) in the back of you zoom in a bit.

Photo of a magazine page:
You know who the syndicates are looking for? They're looking for the dissatisfied stockbroker, sitting his office right now, he's about 30 years old, thinking how funny it is, there's all these office things going on around him, with computers and stuff. And he can draw a little bit. *A little bit*. He's got the gags in his mind because he lived them. He's going to start drawing comic strips, and he sends the stuff off to the syndicate. Even though they're badly drawn, it doesn't matter because they're all reduced down to sub-microscopic size. And they start the comic strip. I have seen so many of these come across my desk in the past five years, and I've seen them syndicated as well. They never last very long. But they hit fast, they've got a good gimmick, they've probably got a hook that sounds good to editors. Syndicates can sell them fast. These guys aren't artists, they're dissatisfied stockbrokers who scribbled a little bit in high school, and can draw it just enough—the expectations are so low artistically on a comic page—that they're being hired.

Of the many new jobs I've gotten in the last few weeks, writing and running training sessions for people interested in protecting the residents of Minneapolis is probably the most rewarding.
Thank you

A photo of a white bowl containing spaghetti with anchovies, capers, chilli and orange.
This doesn't look like much but it was a revelation to me. Such a great complement of flavours.
Maybe a little bit 'saucy' but what better excuse to add bread.

BREAKING: The feminist mafia group that calls itself "The Cliterati" says they are currently collecting all the sexually explicit texts that Republican members of Congress have sent to female staffers, and will publish them in a giant exposé in March.

"I've never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure."
Not the obituary I would have liked to see, but I'll accept it nonetheless.
