Instead of sitting on the picnic table bench, a man just sat on a tote holding craft projects for children, which is labeled as such in 3 places, waiting for his curbside stuff.

First it was a $200 million ballroom.

Now he’s trying to build a grand arch on the Washington Mall—without Congress's input.

Creating a new D.C. museum or monument is supposed to be a collaborative process. Because these places belong to *all* Americans.

Trump treats them like his property.

Trump eyes a triumphal arch to mark America’s 250th anniversary

The arch would be constructed across from the Lincoln Memorial, on a small patch of federal land currently occupied by a traffic circle.

"Doll, dump all them wonton strips in. I'm ready to destroy this egg drop soup."- J

"We have to divvy it up first, Jack. You know you can't be trusted to share a bowl of soup."- I

A little Izzy by Sinnabunny and a little Jack by HK. Izzy is to the left and Jack is to the right. There is a takeout container of egg drop soup between them. Jack is holding a spoon taller than him. Izzy is holding a bag of wonton strips taller than him

Yay for me!

I managed to empty out another one of the carts of children/juvenile/young adult books. That's like 400 books. Which makes like 700 books since we closed to the public. I am finally getting caught up on my massive backlog from when my coworker was out for a year.

I need to buy a refill for my base light skin alcohol marker but I don't want to pay twice as much in delivery cost as in supplies. And the one other thing I am interested in is out of stock.

Ohuhu why is buying from you so hard?

(Is there shop in the UK I can go too?)

For @raiderking.bsky.social: Ned/Izzy 'devotion'.

The song Izzy sings is in the comments below. 🖤

Screenshot of a vignette entitled 'Thy praises shall ring to the end of all time':

Ned doesn’t kneel. Not for anyone. On the rare occasions his talented fingers fumble a coin or a cufflink, he has people to do the undignified business of bending and crouching for him. But there is such a thing as a rare and private exception, just as there is such a thing as a rare and - oh, let’s not be coy - unique instrument. An instrument such as this man in black, staring down at Ned with the mixture of bafflement and cool disdain that never fails to tie the cords of Ned’s heart in untenable knots.

“Please,” Ned breathes, for there’s only the two of them here in his chambers. “Again.”

Izzy makes a scornful sound, gorgeous and dreadful as a tear in a silk stocking. “It’s just an old song from home. Everyone and his mother knows it.”

Is Ned’s desperation so repulsive? Even so, the rasp of Izzy’s voice is like nothing Ned has heard at sea or in all the grand conservatories of the world. Just an old song? Ned swallows the lump in his throat, thorny as pride. “But only you—” He pauses, daring to lay his palms on the warm leather of Izzy’s splayed thighs. “Only you imbue it with life.”

“Your fucking way with words…” Izzy is quick to knock Ned down a peg, but he can’t quite smother his smile. “I’ll sing it again. But you - you stay there and shut your big yap. Do we have a deal?”

Ned’s ‘big yap’, as Izzy so daintily calls it, is dry with want. “Your terms,” he whispers, with a hint of anticipatory vibrato, “are most generous.”

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

A woman says "hi, I'm here for the Magic: The Gathering tournament." A man at the registration booth says "of course. and ma'am I hope it's not too presumptious of me to say that your transition is going incredible." The woman says 'uh... I'm cis actually." Another man comes up and says "hi... wow ma'am your transition..." The first man interrupts him shouting "Tony! No!"

Sometimes I remember worrying that I was embarrassing when I started sharing my fanart. I fell so hard & so fast for our pirates. Then a pro comic artist I really look up to just out of the blue told me my OFMD stuff was "beautiful work". It was like he knew I needed to hear it right at that moment.

ok so what if i made stede a giant carnivorous plant just so he could fuck izzy in new and interesting ways
#ofmdnsfw #stizzy (and technically #steddyhands)

Stede is a giant plant like Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors. Izzy is on the floor on his side with his arms pinned above his head by Stede’s vines and his legs spread, halfway in Stede’s mouth. Stede’s tongue is fucking him. In the background, Ed is watching with wide eyes.

Currently very pissed off as I went to use the hand vacuum only to discover the entire thing was totally clogged with chunks of chalk from some program we had a few weeks ago. No one ever cleaned it out afterwards. I think I got about 3 inches of chalk out. I had to clean the filters & the vacuum.
