Sending spooky noods this season 👻😈

Donut Level Black Mage @vanivalentine.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I have always wondered what mewtwo tasted like.squirtle is probably a gamier turtle soup. Attic is getting spooky. My child getting some sun on the porch. And it’s back? Or never left Buffalo? Wild.

A little help @bernielomax.extranapkins.net @crumblsucks.wyattswickedgoods.com . I got this ball signed anywhere between 1998-2002/3 at the Q. I thought it was Wally Williams but can’t remember . Met him when I was very young and working the bullpen.

Saying goodbye shouldn’t be this hard. Y’all, I’ve had my first real ugly cry since I left my job of 23 years and Jesus does it fucking suck. Tim “ my whale” was not on my bingo card for making me cry first. Wednesday will not be the same. Thank you Tim for everything.

Got prescribed a Xanax before my blood work today. I am terrified of needles. & no tattoo needles are different. Honestly I don’t think I needed it if I just keep getting hot people to do the tests or shots. Today’s phlebotomist could take any amount of blood they would like and I wouldn’t of cared

It’s extremely rare when I hang out with Waseem outside of our work places. Tonight we went to a card show and he helped me trade a few cards to get another one for Ian. 2 down 1 to go. Also got lectured about having expensive cards just raw no sleeves and stuff

The hall hasn’t been this empty in over a decade. It’s so weird. My books haven’t been in boxes like this since 2007/2008 and living in storage. Statues are dust free and back in their boxes is unreal.

So the last 2 days I’ve been processing games. Pro tip…. Manga digest size bags work perfect for PS1/2 games and fitted graded card sleeves are perfect for loose Sega Genesis games.

Dryer blew me back to early 2000’s emo vibes. Mid smirk cause of the goober in the corner.

Like I wanna catalog this journey with y’all but I also have to get it all out , sorted,cleaned, priced packed for other store locations and within my already hectic work schedule.

It just doesn’t stop. No games inside the boxes but still need to check for manuals and stuff. This collection has me so overstimulated it’s nuts.

Back from another quick trip to Mexicali. I might start doing more of these to see where my mom was from. Much closer than the original roots in Los Mochis (abuela).
