Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 15/10/202660 year old men will claim autism didn't exist before 1990, then spend hours hyper fixated on obscure sports statistics from games that were played 30 years ago. 020

Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Removing the ceremonial yoke of capitalism (neck tie). Donning the ceremonial yoke of degeneracy (con lanyard). 140
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The surest sign of fall is when the Cedar Waxwings return. 010
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Aw your old place was so cool! Nice kitchen in the new one though. Hope the move went smoothly! 110
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I need to retort with the obligatory: "Why not both?" 110
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Re: the Tommy Tubesocks comments- Anyone who knows anything knows that the furries in their organization are going to consistently be some of their best, most creative assets. These are people who invent entire species in an hour while bored at work, you should be harvesting that potential. 020
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Or the DoD, CIA, FBI, name a 3 letter agency and I'll find you at least one. We're in the walls, Tommy. 011
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 13/09/2026On a government policy scale? Maybe. I'd argue that 90% of the population doesn't think in those terms, though. Unfortunately, the magic doesn't usually last more than a year, and is too easily aimed in the wrong direction. 000
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Flying out of NYC today, and seeing the crowds in American flag apparel and "Remember 9/11" memorabilia, reminds me that we as a culture are remarkably good at unity when it counts. I just wish we were as good at introspection. 150
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 11/09/2026This is also your reminder that the "War on Terror" is still going strong. We're actively involved in fighting various ISIS/Al Qaeda affiliates from Somalia to Iraq and Syria. An endless game of whack-a-mole which costs the nation billions of dollars a day. 101
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 11/09/2026We spent trillions rebuilding the military, developing new weapons systems, new tactics, new organizations... and then trashing 90% of them, as most are only good for the very specific purpose of fighting an insurgent war and useless against anyone who can actively shoot back. 110
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 11/09/2026It hasn't been obvious to most, because human outlook just isn't built to span decades, but the cost of our initial "limited response" to one isolated (albeit horrific) incident is one we as a nation will pay both directly and indirectly for the next century. 100
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I try not to get melancholy on here, but today of all days, I'll say it is very frustrating to spend your entire adult life watching your country financially tear itself apart like a man destroying his own house while trying to smash a spider with a sledgehammer. 130
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 10/09/2026We've made it now: "Fursonas" was an answer to a clue in the nyt crossword 020
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 09/09/2026"To Shape a Dragon's Breath" Moniquille Blackgoose A really unique twist on the Magical School genre, plotted and set in a way which perfectly captures the alien-ness and uncertainty of being native under a growing colonial power. 010

Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Summer is ending, which seems as good a time as any to invent a new cocktail! I give you: The Trillium Lake All the best parts of a PNW mountain summer in one glass. (Recipe below) 150
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Pretty (grueling) hike up Mt Hood yesterday! Closest I've been to the summit yet. Pretty sobering to see how far the glaciers have retreated, hopefully we get good snow this year to replenish them. 020
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 25/08/2026I was at the FWA hotel last night and there was a Home Depot con going on. Thousands of people in orange HD aprons. Whats your Home Depot sona? I'm Bob, who has been here 30 years and still doesn't remember what aisle Plumbing is on (Bob sometimes forgets he's divorced too) 150
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Boy, you getting treated WELL on this trip! The little lumiere is an enlightened touch. 100
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 09/08/2026No, I just made the mistake of getting sent here for work 000
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 08/08/2026The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people that Orlando is a place worth spending their life savings to go see. 110
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 07/08/2026The holes in the bread are ~deeply~ unsettling in a visceral "I need to leave this place immediately" way 110
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 04/08/2026The old catch 22 of fitness. If you enjoy one exercise type, it's probably because you're already good at it, and the only way to improve is to add in an exercise you suck at. 010

Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Worst part of gallbladder surgery recovery is currently tied between -Inability to use my core to do literally anything for a whole week -How bad the incision sites itch as they heal 010
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Surgery was a success, although I definitely feel like someone went rooting around my abdominal cavity. I hate the way Oxycodon makes me feel, but tonight we will begrudgingly accept the dreamless half-death of opioid slumber. 040
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Farewell to my gallbladder, which just had its final meal of barbacoa tacos and ice cream and tomorrow will be forcibly removed. It had a good 42 year run before it filled itself up with gravel. 730
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I've had many jobs in life that have taken me all over the world, and I can say with certainty that "Picking a blackberry and putting it directly in your mouth" is the meaning of life. Things like "yachts" and "investment strategies" are just worse versions of this same simple dopamine hit. 150
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Nothing says "God Bless America" like spending two hours comparing health insurance plans. 100
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Congrats to our Flickers, who had ~3~ successful babies this year. The local clown bird posse has essentially tripled in size. 020
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Had a great work trip scheduled that would have me landing in Boston on the 4th of July, and then my gallbladder decided to throw a stone. Surgery next week and a few weeks off work to recover, instead! I roll enough 20s in life, I was due for a 1. 500
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Been feeling particularly disconnected from friends lately. I really should make an ATTEMPT to keep posting here. 050
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 24/02/2026I want to know your places, because that stuff is impossible to find around here right now! 110
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 03/02/2026I really need to meet some cool people in Boston, I spend enough time there 000
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 01/02/2026So far the Epstein files have been a better takedown of Great Man Theory than almost any actual academic criticism. Who needs analysis when you have concrete primary sources proving a wide swath of upper echelon individuals are actually straight up morons? 040
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 01/02/2026California Proposition 65, as the law is formally known, has been a butt of jokes for this for decades. 010
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 01/02/2026This is the extreme logical equivalent of printing "Asbestos is bad" on asbestos paper and handing it out. 000
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 01/02/2026Late stage Prop 65 is when shipping labels themselves require self-referential warning labels about how dangerous they might be. 220
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 31/01/2026The first season was a little rough, they focused too much on the ultraviolence and not enough on the dark satire, but season two has perfectly captured the world. Might be the best game to TV/Movie adaptation ever made. 000
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 29/01/2026Pterosaurs were the ecological equivalent of your friend's mall sword collection. 041
Navyraptor @navyraptor.bsky.social · 22/01/2026Had an hour before work to stare at ducks on the Columbia. Big wigeon hours. (Also Goldeneyes, Scaups, Ring Necks, Mergansers, and Buffleheads) 020
