Why didn’t anybody warn me about how exhausting a puppy can be? (they did)


I appreciate these kinds of “here’s what you could try with your fresh upgrade to iOS 18” posts because the actual install of a new iOS is pretty underwhelming until you dig deeper into it.


Apparently some USA conspiracy nutters are freaking out because of random words being displayed on The Sphere in Vegas.

Which is just part of a promo for the U2 concert film being shown there using the same random text generator they did in 1993. 😆


Meet Neville. 🐶 (Neville Dogbottom if you’re fancy.)

Goodnight (aka see you in a couple hours to pee)

If you’re not out getting a slurpee this weekend in Saskatchewan, I don’t know if we can be friends.
