Flapjack

Today marks 17 years since I returned to my home state of Massachusetts from Florida. I can't say I miss FL most of the time either - mostly in January and February.

I watched the puppet episode. I could have done without it, but it wasn't as bad as I feared.

#bulbposting 2026 has begun! BULBS!!

Coreo's one of my best friends ever! Please help them out if you can.

Terumaru, a bright young lightbulb and the mascot of the Tokyu Denki electric company, trapped in a door yesterday:

First dark-eyed juncos sighted today. The end is near (and by that I mean the end of going outside because it's going to get cold and miserable).

It's time for #bulbposting 2025, Fall edition! This tool is the bulb planter's best friend. I only had 12 narcissus bulbs to plant today, but this was a lifesaver last fall when I planted 50 or so Siberian squill bulbs. #flowers #gardening

The fact that "AO3 Maintenance" is a trending topic says pretty much everything you need to know about Bluesky.

Humanity could power their exodus to the stars if only science would pause work on erectile dysfunction drugs long enough to create the pasta-antipasto reactor.

Man, I miss Dr. Gene Scott. Skip to 10:18 to get to the good bit, although his preaching starting at 3:14 is worth it if you've got the time. I may be an atheist, but if I was ever going to follow a weirdo man of God, Dr. Gene would be it. #drgenescott

Well, today I did one of the most American things ever - I couldn't find something I knew I had somewhere, so I bought another one on Amazon.

Every once in a while I remember that Frank Zappa's version of Stairway to Heaven exists and it makes me happy. It's pretty incredible, from Ike Willis's vocals to the note-for-note guitar solo played by the horn section. #zappa #stairwaytoheaven

Anyone else still pissed off that the Unicode Consortium insists that squirrels and chipmunks are the same thing? 🐿️

I regret to report that Bulbposting 2025 is on indefinite hiatus. The giant alliums were the last bulbs to bloom and I'm learning that summer bulbs almost aren't a thing (and, no, tubers and rhizomes don't count!) But fall will be here sooner than you think and then... BULB PLANTING! #flowers #bulbs

Current goal: move to Canada, start up a shortwave broadcasting operation to broadcast messages of truth and hope to the resistance in the US.

Because fuck you, I'm an adult, I can do what I want - I bought a cotton candy machine. I'm pleased to report that Werther's Originals can indeed be made into cotton candy. Also, the controls are comedy gold - INSURANCE!

“Effective immediately, women nationwide are advised to remove all hair from arms, legs, underarms, and genital areas or suffer the legal consequences,” said CDC spokesperson Jamie Reardon theonion.com/cdc-pub...

As a guy on the spectrum, this tracks!

The tallest of these giant alliums is about 4 feet tall! And best of all, they're BULBS!! #bulbposting #bulbs #flowers

If you thought Bulbposting 2025 was done, boy oh man were you ever wrong! BULBS!! #flowers #bulbs #spring

"Breakin' the law, breakin' the law!" Not really, though. Every time I use my Flipper Zero to clone my hotel key and open my door, I feel like such a 1337 h4xx0r! And I wonder why hotels are still using Mifare Classic RFID cards. #flipperzero #rfid #security

Best song of 2025, OPSEC category.

BULBS!!! The hyacinth is mostly in full bloom now! And a patch of grape hyacinth appeared in the lawn in a spot that I thought it had been wiped out from, so that was a nice surprise! #bulbs #flowers #spring #bulbposting

It's so nice when they're doing this rather than trying to murder each other.

The squill is mostly in full and the hyacinth is starting! #bulbs #flowers #spring

How to know you're still a Python noob, despite having programmed in Python for years: you get bit in the ass by the shallow-vs-deep copy of dictionaries. No, dict1 = dict2 does NOT make a copy of dict1! 😡😡😡😡 #python

The great thing about BULBS is that they change every day! We're finally getting some actual blooms, including the first Siberian squill of the season! #bulbs #flowers #squill

Snowdrops - the first BULBS of the season! BULBS!! #bulbs #flowers #spring

Given how much corporate money NPR has been taking for years, I'm not even slightly surprised by this. I stopped giving them money years ago when this shit started getting bad, and I'm glad I did.

So, which is the best guitar chord - Am or Dm? It's definitely one of those two.

F in the chat for Joann!

Nazi punks fuck off for sure but I'd love for nazis who like other types of music and ones who don't like music at all to also fuck off

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

Anyway people talk about hallucinations, but some of that is just overindexing shit posts. The whole thing with “no countries in Africa that start with the letter K” came from a shitposter who put that on Reddit just so when someone said “Kenya” they could answer “Kenya lick deez nuts.”

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Need something to cheer you up? This video never fails to do that for me. Also, this song is the reason why "very delicious cheesecake" has become shorthand for anything good in my life. #kingmissile #cheesecake
