Pals with an ear for gossip. #rabbits 🐇🐰
Two three-week old bunny kits chilling together on a white tile floor. The one on the right is splooting, paws visible, head facing left, right ear up. The one on the left is sitting up against his friend's side, facing the camera, left ear extended, grumpy expression.

So many "Let them eat cake" vibes...

These dogs were spotted taking a group photo in their Halloween costumes. We're impressed by the dog walker's dedication to getting the shot, but that ghost definitely wishes he could actually disappear. 14/10 for all (TT: franklinbarkzoo)

No work today due to civil unrest. Positive - unexpected holiday. Negative - civil untest.

Henry, bun-dad of seven, cuddling with all of his bun-spawn. #rabbits🐇🐰
A gray mini-Rex rabbit surrounded by seven, 4-week-old kits (five black and two brown/gray). Their Moses are the center of the circle, with the exception of one rabbit sitting upright next to his dad.

Just watched "Lost in the Jungle" on Disney+. I was so moved by the story when it was happening and even more so now. What a miracle!

Watching dog adoption videos.
Highly recommend.

We need more good, salt-of-the-earth folks to finally recognize societal norms and pressures that harm (either intentionally or unintentionally) and to have a true Huck Finn moment, choosing "to go the hell" rather than forsake the humanity of a neighbor.

Meanwhile, the bun-mom can't wait until it's her turn to roam because the very adorable bun-spawn are super annoying. What does she look like, a milk dispenser? #rabbits🐇🐰
Wednesday, the sleek black rabbit queen, eats some morning veggies with Oreo, one of her litter of 18-day-old kits (named Oreo because of its black and white coloring) on a green and gray carpet. Immediately after this photo was taken, Oreo abandoned her veg-eating lesson and tried to crawl under mom for some milk, only to be completely rejected. Oh, the bun-manity!

This guy has been going through it. Castration surgery two weeks ago, nails clipped today, and he's spending all his time in isolation so that he can't get frisky with his bun-wife until all his hormones settle and his sperm stop being viable. #Mood #rabbit🐰🐇
Henry, the handsome gray rabbit, eating some pellets. While he is not currently penned, reinforced caging can be seen next to him and across a doorway I the background.

I *swear* that I was totally on top of my paperwork this quarter, but I was still working at 2:00 a.m. to meet grading deadlines.

Last time, though. It's not going to happen next quarter. 🤞

A cushion full of sweeties. 11 days old. #BunnyButtFriday #rabbits 🐇🐰
Four baby rabbits kis (grayish-brown to black) laying on a fluffy gray cushion. Mostly buns and feet visible.

I just watched Kimmel's monologue from last night. It was well done. Funny. Touching. Timely. I hope this whole ABC/FCC free speech debacle is not too quickly forgotten -- we have power as voters and as consumers.

It's been two weeks since we made the impulsive decision to bring this princess into our hearts and home. She is friendly and adventurous, and she is hugely destructive. Much more so than our male rabbit has ever been. We love you, Wednesday! (And you're driving us crazy.) #rabbits 🐇🐰
A headshot of Wednesday, an 8-month-old female Beveren rabbit; her ears are fully extended (black fur, pink skin); small urban balcony in background.

Watched K-Pop Demon Hunters with my two boys (12 and 9) tonight. I don't know what I was expecting, but we had a good time.

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

I keep scrolling this morning reading posts from last night... You are all very funny, AND I fear we are ghouls.

Wednesday would get up and say Happy #SundayBunday, but that would require getting up. Something she has no intention of doing. #rabbits 🐰🐇
Wednesday, a very large and elegant black bunny, lays on the white tile floor next to her litter box with her gigantic ears fully extended and alert. Is she going to nibble some hay from the box? Yes. Yes, she is.

So we did something crazy last night and brought this sweet girl, Wednesday, home from the store. They had her mislabeled as a mini (our other rabbit, Henry, is a mini). Any guesses what her actual breed might be? She's 8 months old. She'd gone un-adopted for five months because of her size.
Two rabbits sharing a small fenced balcony space. One small gray rabbit is laying in the doorframe; one enormous black rabbit sits nearby on a blue towel.

Thank you, #Connections. I needed to be humbled today.

It's Sunday night. 2nd week of school starts in 12 hrs and 40 minutes.

What should I be doing right now vs. what I'm actually doing right now...

We were so productive this morning.

Kid's basketball game ✅️
Buying school uniforms from an actual store ✅️
Grocery shopping ✅️

Now, I'm committed to doing absolutely nothing useful for the rest of the day (excepting meal prep).
