🌊🌊🌊 Retired scientist in the PNW. Democrat and proud of it. I'm scary to repubs 'cause I believe in science. No DMs.

This one was feral. She adopted us at 1yo after having kittens and lived until she was 17.

My copy on my office wall. Gilmore's playing on the title suite is so full of emotion that I suspected his guitar was organic.

We used remote mainframes when I first started in 7th grade, typing and printing on a Teletype 33 with roll paper. My first "PC" was this Terak minicomputer while attending UCSD in 1977. It booted from an 8" floppy. Decades away from a light pen interface!

Mine's been hanging here a while as I no longer have a TT. It probably sounds like crap now as it was played over a zillion times. FLAC rips from my CDs and the 5.1 remasters are my go-to with my PF collection now. Good move on the headphones! WYWH is one of the most outstanding albums of our time.

Tiki asks that everyone go to a public fireworks display and not light them off in the neighborhood.

This is Jones. He is 7 years old. Jones had to be put down today due to a serious medical condition that just came up in the last few weeks. Jones has been my office mate since he was 6 weeks old and I'm not taking this very well.

Kona was a feral mom, giving birth to three kittens before we discovered her. We adopted her and she lived to the ripe old age of 17.

It was a big upgrade from roll paper printout, and we thought THAT was awesome! And just look at that R/W storage capability!

I had an outdoor cat once but I eventually trained her to be 100% indoor. Kona was feral and just had a litter at 8 months old when she adopted me. The kittens were placed in good homes and she was spayed. She lived until the ripe old age of 17.

Calicos and torties are adorable and loving and mean bitches with sharpened iridium claws.

Many are surrendering their pets during this financial crisis. Pet rescues can use your support in getting them all re-homed. Shout out to Cat Adoption Team (C.A.T.) in Portland OR who helped us years ago in adopting these wonderful babies:
