Two adorable black cats on a red blanket, one stretched out and taking up all the space while other squeezes in behind him.

The top left photo is from St. Paul MN, and not from today (maybe from June, but the weather and the trees aren't right for today)

May I present the MN Yacht Club Festival Line up from 2025 (I'm sensing a theme here, presumably the same touring company or whatever):

Music festival lineup for the olds, with headliners Hozier, Alabama Shakes, Fall Out Boy, Wheezer, Green Day, Sublime, etc.

This is why when I approach a cross walk I act like I don't want to cross the street until it's clear because...ugh.

OK, never mind, I was able to refresh and get something I could find in the panorama, but level 34 (mathematics) is definitely the end.

That one took me too long, until I realized it was case sensitive.

They were waiting for another shooter on which to bestow this same fucking narrative. They will bestow the same fucking narrative on the next one, and the next one, and the next one...

He's good, but he's not $16m a year good, is he? The Wild finally got out from under a couple of big contracts and I'd hate to see them in the same position again so soon.

Ugh. Yeah. My suburb does not have municipal trash pickup. But! Competition! Will Keep! It Cheap!

Yeah, right. It sucks. And gets shot down every time it comes up.

Also, the idea that there's just This One Guy offering camps without access to electronics is ludicrous.

Advertising it specifically as a 'digital detox' maybe, but IME, that's unnecessarily antagonistic as most camps I've sent my kids to don't just let kids sit on their phones the whole time.

Most likely someone came in who had heard too much about how people value "experiences" and "remember how they feel not what they bought" and proceeded to miss the point entirely about what actually makes people feel good about a purchase experience.

1526, looks like, unless there was another edition aside from the limited Sub Press one.

Page from inside Agent to the Stars with the words "This special signed edition is limited to 1500 numbered copies and 26 lettered copies. This is copy 1219" Under the text is John Scalzi's signature

Wow, there are some very beautiful things going on there, and some very...not.

Yeah, he's pretty much gone full Food Network and...eh. I did like Alvin's cookie testing video. That one was fun.

Right? The article mentioned the woman, then what the rules were, but did nothing to connect those two things. If she spelled out dietary needs and the tour company reneged? That's a...different story than the one that was written.

The way the quote reads it sounds like it was more about the school not wanting more 'drama' rather than her doing something directly to stop the admission.
