you have a track record for being exceptional.

is this how we find out that Melissa has a shockingly convincing Syvie costume?
this is going to be interesting: will dog Syvie be pitted against dog Blowhole, trying to pin her crimes against Joan on him?
...and whose fault is that? punishing the victim...
can't believe Joan has been exiled from the family...
a practical lesson on 'Corgis are the best dogs! Do not get one!'
yay! also, do the doctor's have to try and face down Tâf again to deliver jabs? need to know if I should buy popcorn
Himself's birds & the bees talk was, I'm assuming, very advanced
think of his poor nerves! (I'm re-reading Jane Austen now, and if it's good enough for Mrs. Bennett, it's good enough for Henry)
never felt so good about my parallel parking skills
or it's his strongest suit! (gonna have a hard time not calling it chicken ticket for a while)
eh. it's algo is annoying (as is a lot of the content) but it can be somewhat useful to see tenders/events you might otherwise miss now that twitter has broken down and not everyone is here. Having a basic profile (like an online CV) might help if on job market.
also, it's just rude
Border Collie slander
got his very own watchdog, though
got both the 'giant children' options covered
it's no '4 seasons landscaping press conference' but still noteworthy.
Asking questions raised by my shirt--a new variation!
me too!
very dramatic flop
do it anyway! avant guard needlework!
I vastly prefer my internal pronunciation of 'Ozymandias' so I will not be discussing Shelley at any time. I also prefer the correct pronunciation of 'sidereal' to what I thought it was, but it's not a word that comes up in conversation a lot. The trials and tribulations of the autodidact.
an unreasonable request
a shocking oversight...
incidentally, how is Joan D'Shark's recovery going?
I am close friends with a cast member of Life of Brian, but it is true she would probably not be willing to reprise her role
Hey! I live in Wales and...this is accurate. (although this summer has been more frequently sunny than usual. very unsettling).
also, I think some of these may have come from a cursed shop I visited in Leeds:
I thought we all agreed you seem to be under some kind of curse...I am not willingly following you down that path
oh, no thank you!
* and central heat. or some kind of heat that reaches my bedroom in the winter months (my bedroom in the cottage is the only room in the house that does not have either a woodstove or radiator from them and, uh, don't visit in January.
my little sister went through a 'licking people' phase that ended when she licked a distant cousin she'd never met before and he responded by licking the side of her face right back. She did not like it.
Wyoming, US. Usually 'meow'. unless they're mad and it's more of a mmmeorrrowwww
well, I guess plants also grow fastest in summer
awww. also-- is that Froglet?!
Tea would be nice but Pollox doesn't deserve that treatment
yes, but not dangerous. just about doubles walk time
great setting for an I Capture the Castle sequel
he's got the rollie-pollies, a common collie affliction. No cure.
not going to accept a doctor's note
she was born to herd, just not livestock
'Thank you, I bullied her all by myself'-Menna
She's very happy as long as I do what she says; here she is saying 'get out of my photo'
you see what I deal with around here?!
better be...
the weirdest little guys (complimentary)
where are the pot pie getting photos?
touched his paw?! on his birthday?!
counterpoint: they say a photo of Kieran and he is very cute?
she does not agree, will not consent
you're gonna do so many jumping jacks this year!
What is the proper term for a pack of Pomeranians? A Plurality of Pomeranians?
1) they don't care much about the suffering of actual humans 2) time for everybody to sit down for a series of lessons on the ELIZA effect
Me too! Hence the research rabbit hole about what people could possibly be doing with Armadillos!
'The kids get it'- Menna, who quakes in fear in the vicinity of pigs
how many involve pigs?
I got to feed a baby one once. That I recommend-- it's was like a live rubber bath toy
of all people, I thought you might be. A culinary adventurer.
(In case you were thinking about it, don't eat Armadillo roadkill)
I think we should have more PSA's that lead people down research rabbit holes
I heard a PSA when I lived in Texas that there was an outbreak of Hansen's Disease (formerly known as Leprosy) caused by contact with Armadillo. A key part of the message was a reminder that you cannot get it from 'casual contact with Armadillos'.
does the paint can specify if it's Corgi coat safe? I assume she also got a new coat of paint
they did a great job, you want a bit of flair for that sort of work
@davekarpf.bsky.social wanna moonlight?
Also...will it really work for her to say she didn't 'see him do anything inappropriate'? She doesn't have the best judgement!
I mean, it's not the worst kind of snake to have in the house
I'm very surprised I managed to get anything above a D after the bridge
cooler, but at what cost?
What, field trips are illegal for kids now?
Thank you, Mac. We've discussed it and she gives her birthday walk a C+. Some nice wading in a stream, rolling, and lovely views but she had to walk past multiple highland coos, be carried over the scariest footbridge in Wales and go through 2 wooden turnstiles, when even one is too many.
ehem, she needs to rest after her swim. She is 10!
(she just went for a swim and she's going on a special walk once I change out the laundry, but sheepdogs are never satisfied)
'Not likely, Melissa, but thank you!'-Menna
godspeed. resist the spoon.
I hope you don't suffer from my dilemma during ragweed season ('would it really be SO bad if I scooped by eyes out with a spoon? it might help!')
She says thank you. It's her birthday so she has taken over the bed as her throne
I am aghast
pretty sure she wasn't assembled correctly for this photo, might want to look at the schematics
you did not, Perkins wouldn't allow a normal sized flag
I assume you have a series of bi-weekly trips booked to visit already!
that looks MUCH better than any of the results I saw from anyone who tried it
Free the bandit!
I have never been particularly interested in having larger lips, despite current trends, but I was 18 and just thought 'hmm, I wonder if it does anything at all'. It burned! It definitely did that!
It wasn't quite that bad, but it was not pleasant! Also, swelling from an allergic reaction isn't all that cosmetically appealing anyway
It's a 3 day weekend and I am determined to completely unplug from work. I've only answered one email this morning! (I'm not good at this)
When I was in undergrad, someone brought a bee venom infused lip gloss to a party for everyone to try. Apparently, the appeal was that it made your lips look bigger. My curiosity won out, and long story short I could have warned Syvie to stay away from cosmetic shortcuts!
I'm sorry for your loss, love to the Chaos House
well, she partied hard with the goats and overdosed on bee venom, it's to be expected
only on the beach
vacation hangover
Mac may or may not be fibbing, but where I live in Wales we have more than once seen sheep get themselves into a bit of bother climbing into trees on hill slopes...
I've watched this several times and he is obviously doing an elaborate internet celebrity summoning ritual
Sam's take on the Funnel Cake!
I hope you will also be making homemade state fair food
he's going to be kicked out of Collie Mensa if they see this...
