Happy 5th birthday to my dog son, Scooter!

Sometimes I want to post random thoughts but then I think “what if it’s not appropriate?” And then I end up posting a picture of Scooter instead because that’s always appropriate.

I’ve got a lot of past ACNH villagers visiting me because of the hotel now. Lots of love for them 💜

I live close enough to work that I came in on a snow day. It was a good idea to do so because no one else except for my manager came in, and I was able to catch up on the grocery and bulk back stock.

Today is hibernation day. Too cold to go out except for my dog’s potty breaks. Might draw later. It’s a good idea to have a recharge day every now and then :3

I get to visit my girlfriend in April AND attend a local convention?? Hot dog I’m super excited now ☺️

Almost 6 years later, one of my first villagers came back to visit me at the hotel 😭🩷 Agnes you are a nice pig 💜

Hotel rooms in ACNH though…I will say it’s a lot of fun to design them.

I’m having a hard time finishing my first game of the year because of a bunch of new updates for existing games that came out.

Oh hi, how are you?

Playing Mario Kart with my nephew tonight and I was teaching him about old memes from the internet and some from the Runaway guys. “Move faster Pokey” and “A Bee?!” was enough to make him laugh and repeat it. Also “Mama Luigi”

My Nintendo recap from 2025!

I should artwork more, it’s just a matter of motivation. Though, ADHD makes it hard for me to stay in task especially after I get home from my full time job. Might start coloring stuff while watching anime. It does help me.

First piece of artwork for 2026 is a custom Lanturn for my girlfriend, @cicabeot1.bsky.social !

The only pro of not going to a con is you don’t get exposed to con crud.

I love being gay for girls it’s so much better than being straight for girls

Also the Spy x Family movie has the most anime scene of resisting/giving in to the urge to poop. I’m not kidding. 10/10 funniest scene

I always try to make a note of trying to motivate myself to draw more but really I’d like to thank my girlfriend for getting me to make her custom Lanturn stuff for her. It certainly helps! :3

Christi has been working on a custom Lanturn portrait I’ll be using for thumbnails for an upcoming LP. And I’m super excited with how it’s been turning out. It’s been a while since I’ve had a custom Lanturn to use.

I’ve just realized that the last few years the only reason I’m saving money is because I’m living frugally. I have long term plans I want to achieve.

Belated Christmas present from Christi because international shipping during the holidays is a gamble. She’s so cute. Worth the wait. :3

For the first day of the new year, I beat the DLC story in Pokémon ZA Legends! I know there’s more to do now so really I’ll be trying to fill the hyperspace dex and see how many shiny Pokémon I come across :3

From @doviroth.bsky.social ‘s daily December Challenge, I at least remembered to post plenty of positive things on his Discord server :)

Ringing in the new year with @cicabeot1.bsky.social in Animal Crossing has become a nice tradition 🥰

Gotta be looking dashing - while dashing towards the new year. Happy New Years! #pokemon #pokemonfanart #popplio

I got a homemade hat from my girlfriend’s mom and I’m loving it! (I needed a winter hat)

I watched Jingle All the Way tonight for the first time, and the last half hour or so was one of the most batshit acts to a movie I think I’ve ever seen. I did have fun pointing out Minnesotan things I recognized though.

Almost a week ago I finally caught my 5000th fish in ACNH!

20 minutes ago I was saying how I don’t have a shiny Alpha Pokémon yet. Then I proceed to find a shiny Alpha male Ralts…Christi luck lol

2025 is coming to a close, and I’ve kept a list of the games I beat this year. If you count the Sonic x Shadow Generations as two separate games, then I’ve beaten a total of 9 games this year. Here they are:

I have a cool nephew. Glad he has a Switch 2 now. Hoping he can get more than just Mario Kart World at some point. Also my brother said the only reason he would borrow the Switch 2 would be for Kirby Air Riders. Lol he really wants to play that game.

From my parents for Christmas I got these games. I’ve already started playing Donkey Kong Bananza and have been enjoying it :3

Also because if I had my own children I’d want to spoil the heck out of them lol

I am kind of relieved to not have to worry about Christmas in terms of children. At least when buying Christmas gifts. Now I’ll still spend a bit of money on my nephew but I consider that not too much since I can still pay my own bills.

Caught up on Smiling Friends with @yoshigamergirl.bsky.social and our braincells all died.

I just remembered I got a $50 Amazon gift card from work. Perhaps I'll invest it in some wireless bluetooth ear buds and start listening to more music in 2026

Sneeze a lot when you are stuffed up. It really does help! But also resting and fluids of course

August 2022 to December 2025 will mark one of the longest periods of time where I never caught any sort of illness. Yesterday ended the epic streak once my nose started running and I got the sniffles. Damn you viruses lol

Here’s what I listened to in 2025. Check it out. youtu.be/TmcPdtxDiBc?...

I went bowling for the first time in a couple of years this evening. It was my work’s Christmas Party. Had fun. Most of my time was spent watching people play at the cheap arcade games and seeing who got the best scores in bowling. (Not me, I got last place lol)

I did buy the Pokémon Legends ZA DLC. Played 30 mins of it. More tomorrow, but so far I’m enjoying it!

We’re dabbing. @yoshigamergirl.bsky.social #ACNH #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons

Got a one-off out today! @yoshigamergirl.bsky.social and I play some Kirby Air Riders together. Some much needed pallet cleansing for the channel. Enjoy! youtu.be/W8KLzoE0bl8?...

I’m finally down to 48 battles left before I get the shiny charm in Pokémon Legends: ZA. It’s been a looooooong process of a lot of battles.

Tomorrow… (Drawn by @yoshigamergirl.bsky.social)

Made it to 35 As always, screw cancer

I don’t listen to enough of my own music during work because having earbuds in while you are on the sales floor is rude. I guess I could have them while I’m packing fruit but I just choose not to touch my phone at all.

Loafies getting a lot less shy

Seems like it was only yesterday that Claudia moved in…but today I received her photo!
