Scheduled a birthday bourbon trip to Louisville for the husbear’s birthday. Just found out it’s also Kentucky Leather Weekend the same time. Guess I better change a couple of outfits I’m packing.

Drunk Joe shopping strikes again with the delivery of several fisherman hats I believed would be my personality this winter. Best way to make money off me is to serve an Instagram add after a couple bonbons.

A quick tipsy trip to the RenFest. I’d have taken more pictures but there was a beer in my hand most of the time.

Dolly Parton was an angel on Earth. She doesn’t want us to be sad, she wants us to be better people. She can see us all, now. Let’s remember that when making choices. I will be like Dolly.

I assume there are after hours parties, but besides taking selfies with other people on Instagram, what does one do at Lazy Bear?

Traveling with the husbear’s family. Three of the five adults are on GLP1s. I’m finishing a lot of entrees. I don’t even know why we ordered apps.

“GLP-1s are ruining my life.” - high metabolism weight lifter who likes bears. (It’s me.) But for real, it was fun finishing everyone’s entree for the first couple of weeks but I need to eat more than twice a day. What are we gonna do when there are no more bellies or fat asses out there?

Growing up a Sci-Fi nerd, I’m so disappointed in video calling and don’t understand the need to do it constantly. Like it’s so cool you can do it from a computer in your pocket but why do people do it?

I’m old and have been busy, but are EDM shows what raves turned into? Like they won’t get busted and end before the sun rises but you can’t buy NO balloons and smart drinks?

I thought getting some work done on my side piece, tattoo not sex robot, would get my mind off the world. Instead we sat for three hours talking about the world while needles stabbed ink inside me. And we didn’t finish this side. Oh well, back in March to finish the project.

Sometimes the fastest way to get a response from a vendor is to intentionally make a mistake in an email, wait for them to correct you, and then pounce and request the information you need n

Since everyone wants to learn about Minnesotans right now, one of the traits of out-state residents is the need to get inner city residents to go to Zorbas when they traveling “up Nort”. #minnesota #zorbaz

I didn’t sleep last night and told my partner it was “because everything is a lot right now”. You’ve been tired but have you ever been “living in an occupied city, watching your neighbors be murdered” tired? #minneapolis #wecontinuetofight

After yesterday, I had so much optimism and hope. Today, I know that this was part of their plan after seeing our strength. Our rage grows. The North will avenge our fallen heroes.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.
