If that's how the men on this planet dress, you can't blame the women for apparently being more interested in each other









This gorilla looks like he's leading a discussion group










This is in downtown Portland.  I've seen it.  It's built right into the corner of the building just as it looks here.

Great roundup!
That island picture is of Husoy Norway. It's a beautiful place inside a fjord in the northwestern most part of Troms county Norway. Beautiful place.
BTW I do love when you post pictures of beautiful or strange geography. Gets me to wondering, "where the heck is that?"

Tim: "Sofaquarium" -- good neologism. That should be the official word for it.

Sandee: Always glad to provide a few laughs.

Leanna: Thanks for identifying the island. I generally say where such pictures are, if I know (unless it's obvious), but in this case I had no idea. I looked up Husøy and that really is way up in the far north. Must be cold as hell.

Great line-up! The "waving" elephant made me feel good for some reason. The video of the invasion was certainly something else.

Ricko: Animals can seem very human when they imitate our gestures.

Those farmers need to invest in a better force field, or the world's biggest can of Raid.

"Richard": You accused me of lying about having suicidal impulses (something regular readers know I've been struggling with for years) and mocked my grief over the death of my mother. The mere passage of time changes nothing. Permabanned is permabanned. Fuck off.
