Caught you, ya thief! First time seeing one of our cats, Bailey, eating dog food out of Baxter bowl this afternoon. So weird! Bailey and Bash get dry food in the morning, wet food in the evening, maybe she’s expanding her food palate? 🤷🏾

⏰ On Sunday wind the clocks back 1 hour. For Bob Stewart, 71, of The Clock Specialist in Royal Oak, winding clocks is what he does daily, 6 days a week in his small repair shop. He's been repairing clocks for over 50 years... 🧵1/3 📸’s by @ericseals of @freep 📝 by @fwitsil

He works alone, only sounds of military reruns like J.A.G. on his TV & the sounds many clocks make on the hour each hour. The walls & aisles are filled w/ clocks from the grandfather kind to well known cuckoo clocks & others. 2/3 🧵 📸’s by @ericseals of @freep 📝 by @fwitsil

Lewis Hamilton never shying away from using his platform to speak up❤️‍🩹 “I think we need to make sure we're pushing to free Congo, free Sudan, free Syria, free Palestine. I think there's a lot of peace that I'm hoping that at some stage we get to.” #USGP

A random fact I found while watching a low scoring NFL game today. There have been two times that a 3–2 score has happened NFL/APFA history: • October 30, 1921: Dayton Triangles 3 - Cleveland Indians 2. • October 24, 1926: Chicago Cardinals 3 - Milwaukee Badgers 2.

Said bye & good retirement to 2 amazing photojournalists, even better people, Todd McInturf & @MearsDaniel. Both were great to work w/ or against since we were competing newspapers 😉We always had fun shooting together & giving each other shit. They’ll be missed by al of us. 🙏🏾

I've NEVER seen such an intense & well shot protest/riot video like this by @confrontfr. Following him now. It had me hold my breath at what I was seeing & hearing. It's 2:52 minutes of wow! This is Marseille France🇫🇷. Part of #operationescargot

When you hear word editors or reporters at newspapers refer to pictures as "art." I don't hear it as much as in the past but just like a Guinness, it's hard to swallow when I do 😆 #journalism #photojournalism
