On the dating apps anyone who says they are conservative is an auto-swipe left but I do like reading some of their prompts. It’s nice to see they are also human until they post something silly.

Sometimes I feel better talking my issues out instead of letting them fester in my mind. I don’t have too many people to talk to you about this in person and I don’t have therapy for another week so Bluesky is my journal.

Part of me wants to completely cold shoulder all of it but that seems the mean and negative way to handle it. We were so tight and I’m sure we still care for one another so I think I’m just going to be there if they need me and remain friendly but not pursue anything more.

I’m in a weird place rn where I don’t know if I want to keep trying to be friends with someone. We were very close most of the year but now they are in a new relationship and the communication between us are hours delayed and bare minimum.

In 2020 I moved to Baltimore to start working with some of the best people in my profession. Today is my long overdue last day! I’m still in the profession just with more money and a different schedule (and a union!).

Chris Musil @chrismusil.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

This might be obvious to other Baltimore folks but I think I just realized why people just throw their emergencies on when parking - they don’t know how to parallel park or it takes too long to do so. I’ve lived here for 6 years.

Some asshole by Roosevelt Park yelled at an Amazon delivery driver who had stopped on a one-way to deliver something, blocking the assholes route. Guy leaned on horn and yelled out his window. Just let the guy work jfc.

It really hit home that relationships and connection or so important.

I’ve gone on a few solo trips over the years but all of them were to see friends or family. This trip to Maine was my first pure solo trip and I’m not sure I would do it again, I wish I had at least one buddy with me or a friend to meet up with.

36 was wonderful. I traveled to new places, got and am managing a disease, made new friends and had a relationship with one of them, suffered some mental and physical lows which all ended up bringing me to Maine for my 37th birthday with barely an itinerary. Please leave Bar Harbor food recs.

I’m in Vermont for the first time. Tasted the difference between light and dark maple syrup (I think I prefer dark but light is very good), also ate a creamee (which I don’t care for the naming but it was good).

I wasn’t paying much attention to Ravens during first half because I was cooking. I think I’m going to resume not paying attention to them at beginning of 4th. I can think of other things to do with my time.

I’ve started keeping my phone on do not disturb at all times and it’s actually nice not having my phone vibrate with messages. Nothing shows up on my lock screen so I can look at or answer messages when i want.

Earlier today Izzi at WTMD played “Bassackwards” by Kurt Vile and it’s really a tune for my life nowadays. I had never heard it before but listening to lyrics they are hitting home for me.

I don’t come to Canton much but when I do, I like to go to the Square and watch the line slowly move in and out of Cafe Dear Leon.

Seen across the street from the court on North Ave.

A sign reading “push butt to cross” above a possibly broken crosswalk button. The letters O and N are scratched out from the end of Butt on the sign. A mural on the side of a building is in the background.

I, an almost 37-year-old man, just asked my 22-year-old coworker if she heard what happened to Clavicular.

I realized today I booked a trip to Maine for 2 nights and don’t really know what I’ll do all day. Commune with nature?

I’ve been a Saints fan longer than I’ve been a Ravens fan so today was a weird day. On one hand, I am ecstatic that the Saints won, on the other hand I am very annoyed with how the Ravens played.

Chris Musil @chrismusil.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

What’s a good way to get to the ravens game without driving myself? I kind of want to bike but not sure about the rain later.

Chris Musil @chrismusil.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

I was just biking around Lake Montebello with two huge blue herons flying over the water next to me. Magical!

This is a fresh nether mural! Love this, good history for Woodberry. Kinda wish there was some kind of plaque or marker to tell some history, but also the people that live in the neighborhood might know their history.

A large mural covering the side of a brick building. The mural depicts the history of the Woodberry neighborhood, showing the Jones Falls inside a large brick archway that looks like it’s part of the building, a heron, a person welding, hot liquid metal being poured, a warehouse steeple. Behind the building are the two large antenna of TV Hill, which help broadcast WJZ, WBAL and WBFF.

This morning two people said good morning to me, which has never happened in this city. One was somebody I did not know who was across the street from me, walking her own dog, the other was a neighbor that I’ve run into a few times.

It’s tough scrolling the dating apps when you’re feeling down. Can’t really advertise your best self when you feel like your worst self.

I made a plan for my birthday weekend in October and I’m so excited for it to happen. I’m going to Maine for the first time and it will be the longest roadtrip I’ve done in years. Hoping to get some peace while I’m there, it’s been a stressful few months.

Out on a work night to randomly see a friend in my neighborhood at a show. I don’t really listen to heavy metal but these guys were awesome. Don’t know lyrics

Proud of the Saints for clawing their way back to get to OTand tying it up, great decision to go for 2 at the end. I’m not expecting them to do much of anything this season so looking for highlights where I can. #Saints

Today I met Gilbert and realized my front facing camera is very scratched up but it’s an iPhone XR and I’m not about to change it until it disintegrates in my hands. Gilbert was friendly.

A selfie with a mini horse and a man wearing black glasses and a hat. The horse is brown and white with a red harness around his nose and long light brown hair on his head. The man is partially covered with what looks like a spider web in sunlight but is actually some kind of crack on the front of his phone reflecting the sunlight badly.

I just saw a bunch of geese walking on President Street, I hope they are OK in this rush-hour traffic.

I finally got new running shoes! I think my old brooks are still good for stuff but my mount to coast shoes will be much better. They are all white which freaked me out some but I look forward to wearing them in and maybe I will clean them up before any kind of race.

I’m reading a fantasy book where the main character can gauge their own Luck and I’ve been thinking that I have been varying degrees of unlucky all morning and they keep piling on. It’s incredible, and hopefully the tides will shift.

I’ve had some dumb mental health issues this month but a really good support system behind me to help get through them.

It’s been a weird August for me in many ways and I’m honestly surprised I’m not more depressed by everything. I guess some things healed up as time went on before the month ended, which hopefully will tr slate to September being awesome!

The Turnstile Versions of Never Enough is so good. I’m currently obsessed with the Hayley Williams cover of Ceiling but there are so many good ones. Not really a fan of the Elton John cover but have only heard once.

I just got hit by a case of the sads because my friend is out having fun and I’m not with her. I was staying busy earlier but now that chore is done and I’m just humbug. This always seems to happen on a beautiful day.

Chris Musil @chrismusil.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

Ravens have had some bright spots. Not a lot of fouls. Webster has looked good, same with rookie TE Hibner and rookies Sarratt and Lane have been fairly active. Kicking hasn’t been good and they gave up 1 sack early.

I deactivated my Instagram a few weeks ago but missed posting stuff to my stories, namely tree and nature content, so I made one specific to that. Follow if you want (it’s social media, it’s not serious) www.instagram.com/treesiseewhi...

Jumpscare. I am mostly sure it’s fake but if I hit my brakes and see it gone or moved I will speed away.

JPJs bass riff on The Lemon Song is one of my all time favorites. Paired with Bonham on drums, just wonderful.
