Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 26/01/2026This is a great read from @dkroberts.bsky.social. Glad I learned of it today from @craigtimes.bsky.social. 011
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 25/12/2025Yep, I just cracked a bottle of bourbon I’ve had for 17 years and it goes for $600-2000 online! Whoops. Happy Christmas Eve! 000
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 25/12/2025I also thought, “Hey I should look that bottle up online BEFORE I drink it to see if it has any value”… 100
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 25/12/2025For Christmas Eve, I just opened a bottle of Makers Mark a dear friend gave me in 2008 — a special “Rock the Vote” edition bottle. The friend passed away this year, and I thought it would be appropriate to finally open this bottle and have a drink and honor her memory... 100
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 21/12/2025Last night I dreamed my brother had become a mega rich cult leader and cut the legs off of an old girlfriend of mine in front of me. My #applewatch say my #sleepscore was 72. 010

Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 05/11/2025Maybe we’ve been too hard on those players not knowing that they were having to listen to gospel music while practicing! 000
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 05/11/2025From AL.com on #auburn first practice after #fire #hughfreeze “Gone were the sights and sounds of gospel music and preachy messaging on the video boards, and it was an energetic scene as hip-hop music blared in the background…” 100
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 02/11/2025@shutdownfullcast.bsky.social I am pretty sure I missed the window for voicemails and that’s on me. But I - a Bama fan - inadvertently fired up the Noles tonight, even joining the shirtless dudes swinging our shirts, and for that I am sorry. #ohthepagentry 000

Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 23/09/2025Given the current direction of Florida leadership, I can no longer associate myself with FDEM as an alumnus. My college. Gone, no semblance to what it was when I was there. My 13 year career with FDEM/FLSERT. No respect for where it has headed. I’ll always have my FL state parks, right? Right? 083

Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Woke up today and all I can think about is how someone should have a house party and have LCD Soundsystem play Daft Punk Is Playing At My House and then they could write a song called LCD Soundsystem Is Playing Daft Punk Is Playing At My House At My House. 010

Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 11/05/2025There was an environmental studies class about art and nature with her though that was just excellent and resulted in one of my favorite papers I have ever written. 020
Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 11/05/2025I got assigned to her when I got there, coming from art school and all. But I had already decided to study biology and so soon switched. I remember liking her - but she got mean that I couldn’t stop saying, “Yes ma’am,” to her. 200

Richard @rdbutger.bsky.social · 15/02/2025A Russian sea was known from 1859-1972 as Gulf of America. In 1859 Governor General Nikolay Muravyov-Amursky of the Russian Empire ordered a map made and declared it was the Gulf of America. 100
