Today marks 10 years since I graduated college?! 😱😅 Here's a pic of baby me to commemorate.

I love this little guy so so much 🥰 Going to miss our morning snuggles a ton while I'm away on vacation. #blackcat #catsofbsky

hatsune miku but from the midwest

Instagram had the audacity to punch my soul with a banger song in a sponsored ad... And now every other post is just incredible artists I would never find on my own?!?! I'm forever gonna mourn the fact that there's endless music that could rock my life that I may never find 😱 it's so unfair!!!

"Do cats understand when we—" Lemme stop you right there. Let's just cleanly end that sentence at "do cats understand" and I will tell that mine at least, do not.

I am happy, but I seem to be incapable of planning my life more than zero days ahead. I have a sinking feeling these two facts are deeply related

Imagine if all our politicians cared about making everyone's lives better instead of stuffing their pockets?! We need a yinzer Zohran for PGH!! 😭

Happy happy birthday to a hella cool dude!! 🥳🎉✨ Hope you're having a great day @benbriggs.net 🎂

RE2 (remake) is alllll fun and games until Mr. "Imma bunch your guts in" X shows up I'll tell ya what 😂 I thought the jumpscares were bad... Lol. I was yellinggg 🫣

I'll never feel so loved as when Void runs to me w/his fave toy in his mouth + chirps at me as he throws it and scampers off. Every time I stop what I'm doing to say 'wow you brought me your nyamen?! Thank you for taking care of me!' and he prances off like he kept me alive, and he did in fact 💖

My son is so cute 💕

I only learned about the cruise ship + hantavirus a few days ago and the way various media sources keep saying "it's not going to be another covid" feels reallyyyyy fucking sus. 🫣😬

Baby's second RE game, defeated 😎✨ I sincerely thought this playthrough was gonna be so much longer than RE9, but I luckily had some help from a couple wonderful peeps when I was lost af 😅

no kings, but my friends are royalty

Love getting my car inspected and slapped with an ~2k bill of shit that needs replaced 🙃 How's everyone else's day going?

If there are 2 wolves inside me, it doesnt matter because the fucked up one is winning

Pretty cool how one side gets to cheat and the other isn’t allowed to win fairly

who in the american political structure is going to call it the hentaivirus first?

Whoops, accidental hour long depression nap 😵‍💫 I hate this

How is it only Wednesday?! I just want this week to be over already. I need a fuckin break y'all...

Big bad in the sad feels.

Arguing how death the kid wouldn't break his arms w/recoil... Me: "have you considered that he's a perfect boi" Bestie: "ok if I were to do that tho?!" Me: "but are you a perfect boi" Bestie: "NO! I'm simply a mannn!!" 😂😂😂 #souleater

if there's one thing about me its that i can perfectly mimic graphic design, and if there's two things about me its that i WILL forget to drink water

what do you want

The only LLM I ever wanna hear about is Long Loooooong Man

Get you friends who when you snap em @ 12am "might try to clean the craft room" reply with "you wild, send me updates" then gas you up for doing the thing you've wanted for months but finally have the motivation for. It's so much better after ~1 hour, mostly just gathering stuff up/condensing.

Saturday I realized if the Pens lost we'd be out for the season. Bestie + I agreed to watch game 4 @ the local pub w/the promise that we'd go to tonight's game if they pulled it out. Well, they did!! And they did it AGAIN tonight 😎✨ PGH playoff games go hard... keep it up! 2 more to beat Philly!! 🐧

Utterly ADORE Redstart Roasters!! If any friends are ever in the burgh, please do yourself a favor and get some lovely coffee there (and lemme know cuz I'll swing by to join ya)

Photos from the last couple weeks that bring me joy. 💖 I've been dealing with some mental health struggles lately, but my life is full of many many good things + people. Just gotta focus on that.

Some of yinz don't have a bestie that matches your exact level of insanity and silliness, and it shows 😂

Sometimes you gotta accept the bad depressies... But did I leash my brain + drag it thru a lot of tasks I've needed to get done. Am I still underwater on a ton of things? Absolutely. Did I get a bunch of odd things done tho? You bet I did. And it's very normal to get a bubble bath at 2:30am, fyi

Been feeling the depressies the last few days. Forced myself to go do errands despite it. I was scowling/being grumpy, but when I drove past the construction at the end of the street one of the guys yelled "I LOVE your hat!!"... And it made me smile real big. Gotta focus on the little things. ✨

time for a cat nap 💤

I've got my fave big hoodie on, my favorite death cab for cutie album playing on vinyl, a candle lit, a window open and Void just laid on my chest... Truly this is what life is about. I couldn't possibly be more content and happy with life right now.

For anyone that might need to hear this: you can start over. At any time. Even if you thought you had life planned out. And sure it'll be scary, it'll be hard, it'll hurt, it might even feel like a you're living a double life sometimes... But you can be happy again. And you deserve to be.

cosplayers nodding sympathetically

And third and fourth and fifth and- Every state should be doing this. Would cut down on predatory landlords buying up every starter home in the country and trapping young people into renting forever 😒

This one segment of subtitles in the video I'm working on is a fairly decent encapsulation of how every day feels like with major depression and ADHD

Check out Mike's work if you're in need of any audio, video, or photo-io work for your project(s) 😁 They're really hardworking + easy to work with and will make sure your project gets the polish it deserves! ✨

Gentle reminder…

Happy Birthday, @jumpcosplay.bsky.social. 🥰❤️

It birthday. 🎉

We can't be more interested in preserving business models than basic humanity and expect to flourish in any meaningful way

If you hit me with a shitty April Fools 'joke' today, I'm allowed to bite you. You won't know when, but I'm coming for you. Seriously, why is this still a thing...

i made a poster for a meetup my nordy friend is hosting cos i too am bewitched by that zesty little lawyer man #jjk
