Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 09/10/2026This Halloween, I’ve been using my parent’s 1997 Camcorder to film spooky things around Philly in order to bring back that 1990’s Halloween vibe. Here’s part one. 000

Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Timeline cleanser: Some birds dropped birdseed over time into my planters - thus growing more birdseed. And today? Today is harvest time. Sparrows are so dang cute. 010
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Six years ago today - I was on a zoom call with Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom (couple). Oh, how the world has changed. 012
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Some good news for a change! Turns out after I shattered my wrist via a bad skating accident - one surgery was enough. My nervous system can finally rest. Now onto physical therapy. Wish me luck! 030
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Beach outfit for the Gay Beach. Feeling good about it. 020
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Reminder: Three years ago today - Convicted Felon Donald Trump officially became “Inmate No. P01135809”. Trump will always be a convicted criminal. 042
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Nothing quite like some Renaissance painting clouds irl. 020
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Has a sunset ever stopped you in your tracks? Has it ever happened in a graveyard? And have you ever gotten lost in said graveyard at sundown for a few hours trying to find your way out? 030
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Who else remembers this 1990’s episode of Nickelodeon’s Pete & Pete? Because this pool chemical is seared into my memory like the Final Destination log scene. 000
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Just because this debut time travel author is recovering from broken wrist surgery - won’t stop him from finalizing his first 1990’s Time Travel novel (first of a trilogy). Will finally be done by next week. Then comes the sequel! 120

Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 01/08/2026So a family of House Sparrows - while attempting to eat Sunflower seeds - accidentally planted a bunch of Sunflowers on my patio. Feeling pretty great about it. #nature #flowers #birds 010

Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Timeline cleanser: If you can, walk through a creek, explore a new trail, let your inner child shine. Wissahickon Valley Park lets you do all of those things & more. What a gem to have in the Philadelphia area. 020
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 17/07/2026The weirdest coincidence just happened. I found out that my Great (x7) Grandpa Rev. Johann Philip Streiter, the first “Strider” to migrate from Germany to Philadelphia, landed on Sept. 26th, 1737 - while Benjamin Franklin (only 31 years old) was working a few blocks away at the Philadelphia Gazette. 020
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Take a break & watch these baby sparrows cool off in their pool (aka bird bath). 000

Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Remember Jeff Sessions? What ever happened to that guy? 110
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Timeline cleanser: There’s something so cute about watching a baby Sparrow (or any other bird) discover the world around them. This one decided she wanted some cuddles from this Tortoise yard decoration made of stone. 010
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 08/07/2026It’s like when you used to put glue on the back of your hand and let it dry as a kid 030
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 07/07/2026It's so hard to say goodbye to these puppy dog eyes - even if only for a day. 020
Chris Strider @strider.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Pro-tip: When you’re roller blading for the first time in decades, make sure to do it on flat ground. This wrist is currently giving 4th of Bruised-ly. 100
