Just three felines chilling #Caturday

Chinese hot sauce stock replenished

Promo shot for the weirdest possible Brokeback Mountain sequel

It’s that time of the (Chinese) Zodiac again, time to pat some horses’ asses, 马年要多拍马屁！

Love this for them

Heated Rivalry, feline edition #Caturday

Fun times…can’t use CITIC’s online banking because I need to update the driver…can’t update the driver because multiple anti-virus programs insist it is corrupted with malware…nice one, CITIC

amazing

that Bears TD pass was insane

Started to watch the show Ponies and was really confused as to why the lady who does awesome Trump lip sync videos had the lead role in a Cold War thriller.

Was it worth it to cook the turkey bone broth down for 5 hours? Yes, yes it was. #soup

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

A Beijing Didi driver wanted to pick a fight with me today after he learned I was American (he asked). He said “what would you think if another country sent troops and kidnapped your President?!” I told him “that would be amazing, all for it.” Jaw drop followed by a pleasant conversation #China

For no particular reason m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dmfy...

Me: Nice Duplo tower, kid. What’s up with all the eyes? 3 y.o.: It’s a watchtower, Daddy. Me:

Mixue Bingcheng HQ in Zhengzhou. Crazy lines of people waiting to get in. #China

It’s a brave new world (moka pot Christmas gift)

Even the Inner Mongolian in-laws liked the cheesy bacon cornbread. Patting myself on the back a bit, ngl

Loki, shrouded

Loki living his best life on #Caturday (there is a heater in the cabinet underneath)

Elder Millenial record day #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

So glad we fought and won the War on Christmas.

Few things in my day to day make me feel murderous rage, but Microsoft inserting Copilot into everything and making it basically impossible to remove is one of them.

一山不容二虎 (“One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers”) #Caturday

R.I.P., Jimmy Cliff. When your music makes a three year old halfway across the planet spontaneously break into dance and pick up an instrument every time it’s played, you’ve left something beautiful in the world.

The grass is always greener…and the faucet water is always tastier than water from the water bowl #CatsofBluesky

Thor doesn’t think outside the box. He doesn’t think inside the box, but he also doesn’t think outside the box, just a not a very smart cat. #Caturday

Had a dream my cat was running for a Senate seat and getting through the roof support because he wouldn’t comply with the Republicans (I mean, he’s a cat and wouldn’t comply with anyone, but he definitely wouldn’t comply with Republicans).

Felt unsettled watching “Death by Lightning”. Just a strange, through the looking glass feeling seeing an American President speak in full sentences and actually have an interior life and morals.

Feeling safer knowing these babies are double stocked in my hotel room #China

Had to go to Paw Patrol to keep 3 y.o. entertained while Daddy watches baseball #WorldSeries

Squeaky and Loki wondering Where Did Our Love Go #VinylSky #MusicSky #Vinyl #VinylCommunity #CatsOfBluesky

Trick or treating in #Beijing

Our black cat finds the cat faced jack o’ lantern much scarier than himself.

Introduced the three year old to Dark Side of the Moon #Music #MusicSky #Vinyl #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #VinylCollectors #VinylRecords #NowPlaying #NowSpinning

Delicious Palestinian stew recipe my three year old daughter helped prepare…as a father I can hardly bear to look at the images but will suck it up and watch “Gaza Doctors Under Attack” albeit without my wife who understandably can’t deal @zeteo.com #palestine

Didn’t expect this statue in Wuhan to be carrying a Louis Vuitton bag and wearing an LV belt #China

Don’t worry about a thing #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

3 year old chose a Bob Dylan record, cat digs it #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

Did the Emperor *really* think he had New Clothes and just couldn’t see them himself? Or was it a power trip to force everyone around him into accepting an outright lie and further subjugating themselves?

In September, for a while I will ride a crocodile Down the chicken soup-y Nile Paddle once, paddle twice Paddle chicken soup with rice

Late night emergency cat food delivery, cats didn’t mind the Meat Package or BARF®️ branding #China

Loki, enjoying his blanket, blissfully unaware of the outside world

Cat digs Ella

I guess the revolution really will not be televised

3-yo wanted me to be a bridge between the sofa and coffee table, so we had an impromptu music appreciation session with Simon and Garfunkel

Some music appreciation for the three year old to complement her patriotic education in kindergarten this week

Objective for my 3yo’s preschool class in Beijing today, as shared by her teacher in the parents’ chat group: “To cultivate feelings of love and respect for the motherland and its military personnel, and to experience the sense of security and happiness that comes with living in the motherland.”

Amazing that certain period dramas are now aspirational rather than cautionary tales.
