Protest sign. It says "Don't be a dick" and "86 47" but the alignment makes it look like it's saying "don't 86 be a 47 dick"

Scott Hunter from Heated Rivalry saying "It's, uh, it's been an interesting month."
An adorable orange cat asleep in loaf position. He's sleeping on my legs, although he's on top of the covers and they're underneath. It's not comfortable for me but I obviously can't move.
A halfway done pecan pie. The crust is too thick *and* too thin and white in some places and starting to brown too early in others. It's leaking butter (although that may also be due to the pecan pie) and honestly I should just buy pre-made crusts.

Harvest moon looking big and bright in a cloudless sky.
My dog Penny in a turquoise raincoat with little yellow ducks.
My cat Pistachio, an orange boy, is hiding with his head around the corner of the couch. His sister Pepper is laying in the sun by the back door. It's open but the glass storm door is safely closed, she can't get out.
A tweet from 22 Nov 2016. Wilson Cruz retweeted my tweet with a photo of us. His says "Thank YOU! #ResistResistResist". Mine says "Thanks for the convo @wcruz73! It was reassuring and motivating. There's fighting to do! Who'd guessed, Oakland Int'l. #science #politics"
Two cats in a window. Torbie is looking at me. Orange boy is watching hummingbirds. They're both perfect and both bad.
Sign on shower at rental home. It says "Water Conservation. Guest, Lopez and Orcas Islands are homes are serviced by water wells located on the property. Please be observant, not to over use the well water. This can also effect the sewer septic system, if water is allowed to run continuous." All errors original to message.

My feet in the Korea Strait
A response to a skeet about Meta Ai, that says "Someone kick him in the b+++lls". There are three + signs. What word could they mean? Brills? Balalls? Are there any words that actually fit?

Dril candle meme but candles changed to read stocks $1000000
Jar of New! Adult Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Soft Chews. It promises FAST relief ANYWHERE with up to eight hour cough relief but I am not sure eight hours of cough relief, if it occurs, is worth the "berry flavor" of the chews.
A dog laying on the edge of the deck, looking out into the backyard, staring at nothing.
The soft, fluffy belly of a sweet little torbie cat. The toe beans on one back foot are pink, and on the other are black, because she is many different colors, and I think that's adorable. Also, shockingly, the belly *is not a trap*!
Image of people at No Kings Rally in Lincoln City, Oregon. They're stretched out along a sidewalk so it doesn't look like many but there are probably several hundred.

Lots of people making the same joke, some in text, some with images, all of the Blues Brothers saying "We got both kinds of music, country and western".
The moon over the entrance to my local beach. It's dark so you can just see the shapes of some bushes and conifers and a hint of reflection of the moon on the water.
A skeet by Third Way that reads "NEW: Third Way President Jon Cowan has a must-read column on how Democrats seize the center on transgender policy in@politico.com this morning. www.politico.com/news/ magazin..." It then has an image that is just text and reads "It will go down as one of the most infamous taglines in modern campaign history: Kamala is for they/them -- President Trump is for you." With a reported $200 million behind ads like that in 2024, the right successfully placed Democrats outside the mainstream. Yet since the election, the party has made no serious effort to reposition itself on transgender issues, the defining cultural battle of this moment. That denia must end if Democrats are to return to the mainstream - and to winning Can Democrats remain supportive of a small and vulnerable segment of the population without seeming out of touch with much of America? Is there a middle ground they can occupy on issues relating to transgender people and still find their way out of the political wilderness? I believe the answer to these questions is yes."

Thick, whipped cream looking clouds. You could run in them. Play in them. Eat them.
Two pictures of my dog, Penny, a beautiful Rhodesian mix. There is text at the top that says "Gabriel was lovely enough to get it started for her". Below is a picture of her looking demure, laying on a dog bed, holding the yak cheese stick between her front paws. Then there is text that says "I'm not even sure how to caption this one. Tinder profile? Idk". The picture below is my dog, on the dog bed, cheese upright between her front paws, licking the tip of the cheese, staring at the camera. It does look like a tinder profile pic. For a dog.
A very innocent orange cat who never did anything wrong, sleeping soundly in his innocence on a box I can't open because he claimed it.

Part of a fish shaped caribiner that says "Not for clinbing". Honestly, I'd never have thought to use it for climbing but clinbing sounds pretty fun.

Orange boy kitty and copper girl doggo asleep on a dog bed in my office. Doggo has her head off the bed and on the carpet, possibly because of the kitty, possibly because she's weird. Random box of "craft stuff" visible in the background, along with a stuffed sloth.

Brown dog in lobster costume that's much too small for her.
Simpsons gif that says "Stop stop he's already dead"
My ancestry.com results. It basically says "very, very white" but breaks it down into England, Northwestern Europe, and Germanic Europe (89% of total) with a small smattering of Ireland, Norway, Russia, and Wales (11% cumulative).
When President Trump was criticized by some of the artists who were recognized at the annual Kennedy Center Honors program during his first term, he responded by boycotting the show, breaking with decades of precedent. Now, as he leads a sweeping takeover of the Kennedy Center in his second term, Mr. Trump is seeking changes that will allow him greater sway in the selection of honorees, according to two people briefed on the matter who were granted anonymity to describe confidential discussions.
Image from UC Davis in 2011, when campus police pepper sprayed Occupy protestors who were quietly sitting in a circle on the quad. The vivid orange of the pepper spray can clearly be seen.
