Um...

10 hours into 2026 and I have cleaned up my first cat puke of the year. Happy New Year!

I would keep my little TV on MTV in my bedroom until I could see the Ghostbusters video

Dinner tonight: Roasted picanha (Brazilian cut top sirloin) and broccoli with a mustard vinaigrette. Copain Pinot Noir for me and Long Trail Ale for @theamericanjerk.bsky.social 🍽️🍜 Happy New Year to all who are celebrating!

Folks, I am happy to announce that I have a ~5lb picanha roast in the oven! Getting ready for New Year's Eve here in this house and I hope you are all also off to some awesome festivities as well! 🥳🍽️🍜

Dinner tonight: NYT Lemony Shrimp and Bean Stew. I used Rancho Gordo Royal Corona Beans and added some mushrooms and potatoes that needed to get used up - archive.ph/XyUQl 🍜 🍽️

I've waited 3 years to make this post

Finally broke down and scheduled a telehealth appointment for this chest congestion. In theory, I could be healthy again just in time to go back to school! [/lol sob]

BTW, for those who may have heard about this issue and were (correctly!) concerned (or, like me, *actively* pissed off): https://coywolf.com/news/productivity/firefox-is-adding-an-ai-kill-switch/

Dinner tonight: Roasted salmon on a bed of lentil and potato stew, flavored with garlic, smoked paprika, and thyme. Just improvised from pantry and freezer stuff. 🍜 🍽️

daily routine

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

As a high school teacher, I also agree with everything in this thread.

The Week Between Christmas and New Years

We’ve opted for a rewatch of an old fashioned film adaptation of a classic British novel. (If you haven’t actually seen it, it’s a thoroughly enjoyable movie grounded in what feels like a genuine love for Austen and Zombies.)

“Describe your Bluesky account in a single image.”

Throwback picture of Parker, who was definitely having a normal one. #Caturday

I can't get over those cartoon eyes. Those delicate, translucent 'leaves' (cerata, as I've learned). Those supernatural, otherworldly vibes. That Pixar-cum-Ghibli creature appearance... And eyes drawn by Gary Larson. I can't.

Happy Pop-Tarts Bowl Day to all who celebrate

And Tiny Sim, who DID die

I would get up, but Parker has decided he needs my warms this #Caturday.

Update - after a wonderful evening of time online with friends in far places, Kickboxer, and red wine I feel much better! Still a little stuffy, and I think the congestion might be in my ears. I should totally do a bunch of Romanian deadlifts, right?

Mood:

"please welcome the voices of huntrix" no they're just huntrix now. they're huntrix and they fight demons

Please rise for the national anthem youtu.be/uFlNZ2-vTYo?...

Lunch today: Still under the weather, so chicken and mushroom ramen with pantry and fridge stuff. Merry Christmas to all of you that are celebrating today! 🍜 🍽️

Fine, whatever, this random cat is your new god of the winter solstice

I realise now that I subconsciously rank the muppets by which of them I would not want to be bitten by.

And Tiny Tim, who did not die, because

A thought for the day.

Show me how your 2025 went

In honor of the holiday season, I'd like to share this classic story by Will Eisner. Seventy-seven years ago, Denny Colt presented "The Christmas Spirit Of 1948!" www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1...

Well the good news is that the congestion seems to have mostly left my chest.The bad news is that it is actively taking up residence in my sinuses.If I have avoided this turning into bronchitis I will take that as progress.Don't think I'm ready to go back to my work outs yet.[/Eyes weights guiltily]

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, eventually found himself on a planet called Third Earth, where he had a long-running quarrel with a group of anthropomorphic cats
