Wow! What a cutie!

You might need to take it to a vet, that dog is defective. It's all blurry!

Pooping!

Ah... is this time for one of those "pics or it didn't happen" jokes!?!? 🤣

Edit: how do I make absolutely clear that I'm joking and do NOT want to see pics of pooping!?!?:-D

See, now I have to believe you're exaggerating how much you don't want to see it because you really want to see it

First day of our first real vacation in...5 years? Since COVID, certainly. Long day of travel, couple of flight delays, but successfully made it to the hotel with enough time to order room service and collapse into bed.

Had our celebration of the season today with gifts, food and family. Just a family of heathens over here...

Procrastinating digging into why my Proxmox installation failed that I was too tired to mess with at 11pm last night, after a funeral today that was 2 hours from home.

About to read a book (just had to check social media first:-).

[–] SomeAmateur@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I just started reading the first book of the series "The Expanse". A friend recommended it and it has lived up to the hype!

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Sounds neat! (Hugo award, finished series, and all that) I gotta find my local library, read The Foundation series by Isaac Asimov, and then start seeing what trouble I can get myself into after that:-).
