My heart warms whenever I see my cats snuggle.

Post your lock screen (mine rotates between all the critters once an hour).

Oh god, France too? The fires in Canada are so bad it choked out the northeast US. Chicago was like The Mist last week.

Looks like it cleared up a bit from when I saw downtown during rush hour.

lol, got a temporary ban on Reddit for responding to this comment calling it vile. The internet is becoming a very scary place if calling out horrid views like this is now considered harassment.

A Reddit post by NadeshikoEatingPasta that reads:

“Awwww, are you mad I pointed out that people on welfare often truly are the trash they are stigmatized as being? That they're parasites whose existence is subsidized by the productive members of society?
Does it make you seethe? Bet not as much as I do knowing my tax dollars go to feed fat single moms with 5 kids their jumbo boxes of cinnamon toast crunch, family bags of pizza rolls, flats of sugary soda, and all other manner of garbage with no nutritional value so they can get even fatter and then eventually require lifesaving medical care which will also drive up the cost of healthcare premiums.
GET OFF THE DOLE, PARASITE.”

This was Chicago’s skyline from the freeway (I was passenger) during rush hour. We saw multiple emergency signs warning the public about the air quality. This is dangerous to breath right now.

Downtown Chicago during the day almost entirely obscured by wildfire smoke. The picture was taken from a car on the freeway looking towards Lake Michigan and almost no buildings can be seen.

I had a very vocal Siamese once (RIP Tazzy, my feline soulmate) and can see the connection. She would also get mad and destroy stuff if anything upset her, which a lot of things did. I miss her so much. (Cat tax attached)

I read that as 2020 only and thought it was 6 years dated, lol. Anyway, here’s mine. The tech split was surprising to see.

Found this gem yesterday. I need to know what channel this is.

A screenshot of four YouTube videos from a suggestion list. Each has an older white man with a bald head and white beard wearing the same red sports shirt (I believe it is for the Cubs?). The video titles are “Should Christians call upon GOD and Jesus Christ for help explain…,” “The end times are closer than you think The first 6 seals are o…,” “Skyrim Wives Ysolda explored 2026,” and “Skyrim Wives Haelga Explored 2026.”

There certainly are not so I’ll pitch in a pic of one of mine. This is Jack and he loves to suckle on his bed. Picture taken as I type with one hand.

Patting a grey cat on his butt as he suckles on his bed. He’s fully grown but likes me to hold his as he does it.

GNU Terry Pratchett, and Happy Birthday! Moist Von Lipwig is my favorite Discworld character, so I was ecstatic when my wife found this illustration of him for me.

I didn’t realize until after that the famous Nazi fuck’s birthday is also today, but Happy 3rd Arbitrary Birthday to my dog, Tallulah! My wife and I picked it for the weed joke since we know she was born in mid-April. I think this is the more important birthday.

(I genuinely think The Wire is the best TV show ever made, have watched it at least 7 times, have read that book, have listened to an episode by episode podcast deep dive, and have a copy of the Blu-ray signed by Seth Gilliam. I probably know more about the show than I ought to)

Blasphemy. Kora is a blessing upon mankind.

If you see this, post a concert photo you took Me at Jeff Rosenstock at Headliners Music Hall in Louisville on April 6, 2024

V-Day dinner. Salmon filets, potatoes, Brussels sprouts with pecans, and fresh bread. Paired with a lovely Chardonnay.

I lost my cat in December of 2024. Tazzy had been my bedrock through COVID and a divorce and cuddled against me in bed every night. After she passed away from cancer I was distraught and heartbroken. I adopted another cat six weeks later, but that doesn’t make me a bad person.

I needed this today. Thank you. Obligatory cat picture.

I’m so excited to dive into #theexpanse #TTRPG after this fantastic gift from my wife today!

Dunno how many fans of SPRINTS are on here, but apparently I was in their top 100 listeners on Apple Music this year!

I’ve met a tame raccoon at a wildlife rescue (she can’t survive in the wild due to health problems) and she climbed onto my head and cleaned the inside of my ear. Her name is Giz and she’s my friend.
