The Photo Gallery
It’s your weekly Photo Gallery! Come on in, take a look at what people have been up to over the past week and share some of your own photos.
They don’t need to be taken with a fancy camera or works of art. Share any SFW photos you’ve taken with even the poorest of potatoes. Of course we love to see that arty stuff too.

Hello and welcome to another something weekendish. Just shy of May Day and hopefully resting (or soon to be) from our labors for a moment.

I know it's a big country but I think if Bertolt leaves soon, he can probably make it.

Thursday evening open thread.
Staying with the pug theme for Thursday;
Kia is feeling well enough that she's starting to investigate her incision. There have been several instances of "Leave it! Nah-ah! If you won't leave it, the cone goes on!"

Oops! It's Sunday PM and this is BT
Good evening! I accidentally published this over at GT even though I remembered to check that I was in the correct blog... I guess I didn't change options firmly enough. All sorted now.

Hello and welcome to the weekend, as applicable. It's April 22, which is Earth Day, so I guess go out and put your hands in the dirt and say thank you.

Fur Face Friday
Last week was a very brief summer...short but sweet just like this is...so we got to enjoy the outdoors!

The other day I wrote a letter to the administration in opposition to the guidance in their Return to Work Memorandum (M-23-15) for both environmental and personal reasons. Here is the response:

Thursday evening open thread
By the time this is posted, I'll be in transit coming home from my last day of work. I'm meeting my friend A, and my retired colleague, also A (different actual names, though), and were zipping to my place to let the dog out, and then out for a bite and a beer. Probably to scene of my unfortunate incident last friday.

When the kids were babies, I'd ask, "How many tickles does a squid have?" Eyes wide with terrified anticipation, they would squirm away and scream, "No no no no no!" I'd yell, "TEN TICKLES!" and then apply the ten.

Hello and welcome to the weekend or something like it. We've somehow gotten to the middle of April and I have no idea how it happened.

Fur Face Friday
Hello and welcome to the weekly celebration of cute we call Fur Face Friday! Here's some adorable pals who were very much making themselves at home in last week's comments.

| Cooper, Timmy, and Wish make a wonderful welcoming party chez myopicprophet. |
In case you're new here, favourites are chosen by one of the Snout Selectors (facw, k2b, Hannibal, leahaven, and myopicprophet), entirely on our own whimsy. WHIMSY! However, in the interest of solidarity, we try to select one dog picture and one cat picture (minimum!) each week. Other pets will also, of course, be considered. We love all your rats, bunnies, ferrets, and other furry, feathery, and finny pals. WE WILL NEVER DISCRIMINATE AGAINST CUTE.
