Went to the Rush concert in San Jose last night with my brother - his first time seeing them. Great show as always! Took a few pics but no video.

Didn’t think I’d be able to see it due to lots of cloud cover all day where I live, but got home from work and while going out to my car happened to look up and see the moon, eclipsed! I’m very happy I was able to catch it. Here’s my shitty iphone pic so you all can see it too.😊

Courtney is absolutely crushing this, and I really hope she keeps it up! 😳🎉💥🤯🥰
Courtney Dauwalter leads the 2026 Hardrock 100 at Sherman (mile 73) in 16:23 elapsed. She was all business with eye drops, teeth brushing, and hydrating before heading up Cataract Gluch. She is currently 47 minutes up on the course record. #HR100

Paramount can suck it! 😂
Everyone COPY this video, share it far and wide. Paramount Skydance billionaire baby David Ellison can’t handle that Stephen Colbert is getting millions of views . @Youtube we will cancel our subscription as we did when we dumped @paramountplus.

A couple pics from my last day of fishing at La Bahia de Espiritu Santo with my brother on the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico. Sunrise outside my room; a pelican that hung out with us for an hour; a thunderstorm that shut us down for 30 minutes; a really nice bonefish my bro caught.

This guy is a colossal douchebag! 🤢
Chad Bianco is polling No. 2 in the California governor’s race and loves to talk about “waste, fraud, and abuse.” Trump style. In 2023, his total compensation as Riverside sheriff was $593,518, a huge leap over his predecessor’s salary. It was the highest for any sheriff in the state and much higher than the current governor’s salary. Does waste include his bloated pay?

Got this rad pic of a phenomenon that pilots call “the glory” off the southeastern coast of the Yucatán Peninsula yesterday - the shadow of our plane within a circular rainbow! Soooo cool to see! 😍 #theglory #coolshit #shadows #rainbows #aviation #Yucatán

First day fishing with Espiritu Santo Bay Lodge and caught my first ever snook (first pic) and a few bonefish. Plenty of opportunities for snook and baby tarpon, but it’s called fishing for a reason! 😄🎉 #flyfishing #flatsfishing #Mexico

Great run today in Cotoni Coast Dairies National Monument. Beautiful views and wildflowers, and a rubber boa too! 😊
