Thinking of this song
Bob Dylan
Shelter from the Storm
I wanted to post this last night when there was a cold wind for a minute, but, appropriately, I had lost my phone 😆
I was thinking I might do a cw: long form Dylan, but people would know not to click, I guess. I really like his long ones where you kind of forget it's on for a while, but not everyone does, I don't, always.

The image is a four-panel comic strip set in a classroom. In the first panel, a teacher asks, "What does a chicken give us??" A student responds, "Eggs!!" In the second panel, the teacher asks, "What does a pig give us??" Another student answers, "Bacon!!" In the third panel, the teacher asks, "What does a fat cow give us??" A student humorously replies, "Homework!!" The final panel shows the teacher reacting with surprise and anger, throwing a chair, while the students scatter in fear. The comic humorously suggests that homework is as valuable as eggs and bacon, but in a chaotic way.

Das Bild zeigt eine Figur, die einem Clown ähnelt, mit einem bleichen Gesicht und einem unheimlichen Ausdruck. Die Haut hat eine rissige Textur, und die Augen sind schmal und grün. Die Figur hat rote Haare, die nach oben gestylt sind, und trägt ein Kleidungsstück mit einem aufwendigen, rüschigen Kragen. In der Hand hält sie eine brennende Zigarette, aus der Rauch aufsteigt. Die Kleidung ist in dunklen Tönen gehalten, mit einem roten Knopf am Kragen. Die Gesamtkomposition des Bildes ist düster und unheimlich, mit einem Schwerpunkt auf der Figur und ihrem Gesichtsausdruck.

The image is a meme featuring two chimpanzees in a forest setting. It is divided into three panels, each with text overlaid on the image. In the first panel, the chimpanzee on the left says, "You're going to Hell," while the chimpanzee on the right responds with, "What's in Hell." The second panel shows the left chimpanzee saying, "People like you," and the right chimpanzee replying, "What's in Heaven." In the final panel, the left chimpanzee states, "People like me," and the right chimpanzee concludes with, "You need to work on your threats." The chimpanzees are depicted in a naturalistic pose, with the left one sitting and the right one in a thoughtful pose, hand to chin. The text is in a casual, conversational font, with the phrases in Hell and Heaven highlighted in yellow.

FM Sybiha welcomes historic ECHR rulings as ‘justice in action’
Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has welcomed today’s rulings by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), which condemn Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, as “unprecedented in European history.” — Ukrinform.Ukrinform
The image consists of three panels featuring two chimpanzees in a natural setting, likely a forest. Each panel includes text that appears to be part of a humorous dialogue.
In the first panel, the chimpanzee on the left says, "You're going to Hell," while the chimpanzee on the right responds with, "What's in Hell." The second panel shows the left chimpanzee saying, "People like you," and the right chimpanzee replying, "What's in Heaven." The final panel has the left chimpanzee stating, "People like me," and the right chimpanzee concluding with, "You need to work on your threats."
The chimpanzees are depicted with realistic fur and facial features, and the background is blurred, emphasizing the subjects. The text is in a casual, conversational font, with the left chimpanzee's text in white and the right chimpanzee's text in yellow, creating a visual contrast.

FDR led the US and the World out of the Great Depression, and success in WWII. Harry Truman followed suit but the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution formally set term limits on US Presidency. The JFK-Nixon election of 1960 was very close and Nixon refused to contest the results to keep America's image on the global front, intact. LBJ saw the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which led to the South leaning Republican. After a scandalous 2nd Presidential term for Nixon, Jimmy Carter took office on a platform of love and trust.

The image is a cartoon depicting a humorous scene. In the foreground, an elderly man with white hair and glasses is standing on a grassy lawn, holding a cane. He is looking up at a treehouse where a younger man is sitting. The younger man is wearing a teal shirt and green pants, and he is holding a sign that reads "History Podcast." He is sitting on a makeshift platform in the treehouse, with one leg extended out. The elderly man is pointing at the younger man and saying, "There you are! Give my leg back you little shit!" The background shows a tree with a white fence behind it. The text at the top of the image reads, "Jimmy loved to sit on Grandpa's knee and listen to stories of the past." The artist's signature "LRtoons" is visible in the bottom right corner.

The image is a cartoon depicting a humorous scene. In the foreground, an elderly man with white hair and a beard, wearing a brown vest and gray pants, is standing on a grassy lawn. He is holding a cane in his left hand and pointing upwards with his right hand. His expression is one of mild annoyance, and he is speaking, saying, "There you are! Give my leg back you little shit!"
In the background, a young man is sitting in a small treehouse built into a large tree. He is wearing a turquoise shirt, green pants, and headphones, and is holding a tablet with the text "History Podcast" on it. The treehouse is constructed from wooden planks, and the young man is perched on a wooden platform, with his right leg extended out of the treehouse, seemingly taking the elderly man's leg.
The scene is set in a backyard with a white fence in the background. The text at the top of the image reads, "Jimmy loved to sit on Grandpa's knee and listen to stories of the past." The artist's signature, "LRtoons," is visible in the bottom right corner of the image.

The image features a cat lounging on a cat tree, with a relaxed posture and a direct gaze towards the camera. The cat has a gray and white coat with distinctive stripes, and its eyes are wide open, giving it an attentive expression.

The cat is positioned on a beige, textured surface, likely a cat perch, which contrasts with its fur. The image is overlaid with text that reads: "LET ME EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO YOU: I AM NOT YOUR PET... ...YOU ARE MINE." The text is in a bold, black font, positioned at the top and bottom of the image, creating a humorous and assertive tone.

La imagen presenta un fondo con un dibujo de un árbol gigante, Yggdrasil, que es un símbolo central en la mitología nórdica. En el centro del árbol, se encuentra un personaje con barba blanca y vestimenta antigua, que representa a Odín, el dios de la sabiduría, la poesía, la magia, la guerra y la muerte. Odín está colgado del árbol durante nueve días y noches para obtener el conocimiento de las runas. El texto en la imagen, en español, describe cómo Odín sacrificó un ojo para beber del pozo de Mímir y obtener sabiduría profunda. En la parte inferior, hay un círculo dorado con la palabra "FEHU" y un diseño que parece representar un símbolo runico. El título "Sabiduría y Conocimiento" está escrito en letras doradas en la parte superior de la imagen.

in reply to AaronDavid • • •The image features a green frog character, Kermit the Frog, standing in a grocery store aisle. The background shows shelves stocked with various products, typical of a supermarket setting. The text at the top of the image reads, "When you leave the store without buying anything." At the bottom, there is a caption that says, "Act natural, you've done nothing wrong." The frog's expression is calm and slightly amused, with wide eyes and a subtle smile. The overall tone of the image is humorous, playing on the idea of someone leaving a store without making a purchase.
