This evening I am deep in a forest while a familiar creature follows a scent trail. Later, D&D.
A bearded collie dog, Rylan, stands in the middle of a forest, looking back and clearly wondering why the fuck the idiot holding his string is fucking around with the little black shiny thing a-fucking-gain

Past me is a dick who should have thrown most of this shit out years ago.
A photo of a garage filled with boxes. Some of the boxes are storage boxes. Most of the boxes are just cardboard boxes filled with crap. crap upon crap upon crap upon crap forever and evermore

My idiot dog is making me make better life decisions, because he is going to be wherever I am, so I am forced to go downstairs where the air-con is, instead of at my computer, so he doesn’t overheat out of a desire to be closer to me. The fucker.

My weather app has the same meteorologic opinions as the dog. He wasn't happy last week either, but now he's unhappy and making my duvet damp.
A notification from Carrot, an opinionated weather app. It reads: Morning Report: Today: 17 high, 13 low, Chance of motherfucking rain throughout the day. Winds SW at 10 to 18mph, Chance of rain 71%. Via Phone Link.

The thunder rang out, and shortly afterwards I gained a tightly wound sofa donut, shown here after some soothing.
Rylan, a slate grey Bearded Collie dog, 86% fluff by volume, lies curled up on a blue sofa, his head on a cushion, distressed at the state of a sky that does shout so loud at so innocent a puppy.

Today I laid waste to the invading armies of the garden. Or “cut the grass”, if you want to be pedestrian about it. It looks more impressive though the wide angle lens. Also pictured: the advisory committee, overseeing a job he’s proud of.

Yeah. When I posted this I was quite surprised to see an average 4.4/5 review for them.
A trustpilot review of DPD, it says: I mean, it arrived. But putting a cardboard box on top of our recycling bin when it was outside the gate on collection day isn't the best delivery they've ever managed.

Today’s dog walk. One of us is enjoying -5c a lot more than the other.

Strong independent dog who don’t need no owner, but wishes to go into the bushes a little bit further than the edges of the dry path allow me to go.
Rylan, a slate grey bearded collie, at the end of his tether. Between us and him, marshy foliage. Between him and his dreams of going deeper into the brush: my pull strength against his.

There are times, internet oh internet, where I just don't *like* you. If you wish the core of your personality to be exposed, slimy and dripping, to the external world, this is the location www.idrlabs.com/jock-nerd-pr...
An alignment grid of Prep to Goth horizontally, and Jock to Nerd vertically, in which yr hmbl svnt is positioned nearly as far Nerd as you can go, and only just in the Goth third of the chart. Text reads "You are 41.8% Goth, 82.7% Nerd, placing you in the LARP category".

Blue Prince and Clair Obscur have me by the neck a bit, but I’m keeping up with FF14 and will one day get to the end of Fallen Order without falling off and restarting in six months.
A poster for Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail, of a generic human male posing dramatically on a crag above an Incan-inspired forest fantasy setting.The poster for Blue Prince, consisting of a small boy deep in a corridor of doors, each room distinct from the last, about to be fucked by the RNG which hasn’t generated any sodding keys for nine generations.The poster for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, where four humans and a paint brush stand with their backs to us and facing a giant sad woman as they wait to time a parry to an attack that will one-shot the lot of them if they miss the timing by 1/100th of a second.The poster for Jedi Fallen Order, consisting of the Jedi order’s red-headed stepchild Cal Kestis, rigged by friends and enemies in typical Star Wars poster style. Cal is also about to mistime a parry, but it won’t kill him yet.

Tesla stock is down from its election high, but it’s still above its 1Y average. They’ll have to fuck up a lot more for even the non-muskrat fans in the investors to turn tail, and there aren’t many of those left anyway.

It’s not that my dog has opinions about the weather, but he has taken my umbrella from the bucket by the door and brought it back to his crime nest.
