Friday evening on the beach near Pacific City, OR. Technically I think it’s Bob Straub State Beach. #Oregon #PacificCity #Sunset

It’s still early, but plans are afoot for a curry later, so a Taj Mahal lager.

Thursday evening on the Oregon Coast at Pacific City. The tide comes in quite quickly, but Leeanna and I still got in a 90 minute walk along the beach. I kept thinking how much our dogs would enjoy this. Next time, perhaps. #Oregon #PacificCity
Pika likes to be close to the source of the music at all times. #caturday #cats #CatsOfMastodon #FediCats
I seem to have lost Pika ! #cats #fedicats #CatsOfMastodon
Traffic advisory in Sandy, UT. All routes to the coffee machine are currently blocked. ETA for clearance is pending. #CloverTheLeonberger #SproutTheBerner #leonberger #BerneseMountainDog #cats #FediCats #CatsOfMastodon #dogs #DogsOfMastodon
Sprout and Clover watch attentively just in case I drop something from the dinner table. #SproutTheBerner #CloverTheLeonberger #BerneseMountainDog #Leonberger #dogs #DogsOfMastodon
Pika wishes all of you who celebrate a wonderful #caturday, and hopes that none of you are jealous of his Pilates like approach to sitting on things. #cats #catsOfMastodon #fediCats
One more #caturday picture of Pika. My wife is making dog food. Pika thinks the mixing bowls are a perfect place for a nap. #cats #fediCats #adoptDontShop
Count Binface has a point. Let’s hope he stomps nigel. #UKPol #CountBinface
Henry is a very shy feral rescue. He is not, however, immune to the siren call of a good cardboard box. #cats #CatsOfMastodon #feralCats #adoptDontShop
Pika is having a very relaxing #caturday and I imagine that he wishes the same to all of you. #cat #catsOfMastodon #adoptDontShop #fediCat
Charlie hopes that you managed to have as relaxing Monday as he did. #cats #feralCat #feralRescue #adoptDontShop #CatsOfMastodon #fediCats
Happy #caturday to all who participate. Tiny Sir was my initial subject, being a cat and all, but Sprout decided he needed to be a part of the celebration. #cats #CatsOfMastodon #SproutTheBerner #BerneseMountainDog #dogs #DogsOfMastodon
It’s a trap ! Charlie demonstrates his ambush predator skills. Too close and you’ll lose limbs. #cats #FediCats #CatsOfMastodon

@josh0@babka.social @ricci@discuss.systems you are correct, I should probably add that to my profile.

@ricci@discuss.systems I am reminded of a story that I think Kurt Vonnegut told about his brother. Someone commented that the brother’s desk was a mess. He gestured to his head and said ‘If you think this desk is a mess, you should see what it’s like in here’.

@ricci@discuss.systems I still have facebook to stay in touch with family in the UK. Second item in my feed this morning was KSL5’s interview with you, Rob.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social she’ll out-dictator them all just to prove that she got the dictatorship on merit !

@flexghost@mastodon.social one more, Peter Hammill’s ‘Red Shift’ has a ‘the universe is expanding’ feel. I have to be careful not to play Peter Hammill when my wife is home, his voice is an acquired taste, and she hasn’t, she says it makes her want to punch the wall 😆 Lead guitar played by Randy California.

@solitha @stux @SophiaFree I think that the white winter fur is called ermine ? As you say it’s a stoat in winter colours.

@unlofl I like to summarize those awful meetings with the “those people couldn’t organize a piss up in a brewery.” Most people seem to understand.
Hakeem Jeffries is about as much use as a chocolate toothbrush. The sooner he and Schumer are out of leadership the better. #Demshttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/aug/23/hakeem-jeffries-jared-kushner-meeting

@stux we used to see these up at Snowbird when I taught up there, fascinating little creatures.

@geekysteven@beige.party I don’t have any. The town my family takes its name from is mentioned in The Domesday Book. Could I be a wealthy Medieval noble ?
