RIP, Joe

the GoFundMe for Joe’s final arrangements is live. please chip in if you’re able and share if you can’t gofund.me/1bd810ff

we went to cincy in early 2020, Joe insisted we come over for beers and his wife brought home barbecue. we ate and had bud heavies and then he mentioned we should go check out the bourbon trail

little Personal Update for the pals over here who are no longer over there: ya boy got a new job with a legitimate dream company, which offered a salary that may actually let me breathe financially. pretty good

[the loudest voice you’ve ever heard] go birds

welfare check on @miketaddow.bsky.social

when I’m trying to work out which of my old good tweets I can bring over here and get dopamine hits from

nothing has made me question my sanity and the paranormal more than toddler parenting. how did this get into the basement bathroom

my reach is significantly smaller on here but I will endeavor to try anyway: putting it into the universe that I’m available for 10-15 hours of freelance work a week (copywriting, whatever). RTs for awareness/signal boosting would be terrific, wedding bills are endless

tired: bluesky wired: greenbug

[scratches ass through overalls] dunno what to tell ya jack. your pipes are full of skeets

you trying to tell me an apple bought ‘em jeans?

it’s a weed vape called Instant Pot

drove past mcdonald’s and there was a bunch of police tape around it. managed to duck into the drive-thru and was horrified by what I saw

whomever gave that account an invite code should be electrocuted, and I mean that in the least hyperbolic way

six beers for five bucks was the american dream that inspired my move here. happy fourth, blooski gang

it’d probably get me banned for “making threats” or something over there but this makes me laugh every time I think about it

clockwork

Every refollow on this app feels like sending a note that says “do you still like me y/n”

happy fourth (day in a row eating hot dogs)

refusing to let my family eat breakfast until they correctly recite the pledge of allegiance. the baby is crying. I would be too if my flag-saluting technique was so weak. the cat stays outside for licking herself while the anthem blared at 6am, it’s simple disrespect

Jesus Christ I’ve become a prompt tweet with no way to change my notifications tab to “only from people you follow.” I’m going back to the other place

I’ll give $12 to whomever develops Skeetdeck so I don’t have to do work during the work day

[gonna continue my “first time ever watching ITYSL” thread over here] just got to the hot dog man episode and the meme makes sense now lmao

love an excuse for a hot dog and a high life or three

thinking about making the traditional fourth of july hot dog meal a little multicultural with the addition of an australian-style accoutrement (grilled white onions that you dump some domestic lager on while they’re on the griddle)

saw a guy at the nature and science museum wearing a daily wire shirt and hey dude moccasins. imagine saying “hey babe let’s go see some stuff we probably don’t believe in, I’ll wear my racism uniform”

you trying to tell me a beef shorted these ribs

when I ask for my communion wafer toasted:

I could’ve sworn I’d seen interstellar but I don’t remember a single fucking scene after that big wave on the first planet. matt damon is in this shit?!

damn he’s right

welcome to all new bluesky users. please keep in mind that it is still in beta. there are many features still missing, so please be patient. for example, you may notice that this app loads posts and then shows them to you, instead of not doing that for some reason.

I’ve been playing Days Gone since the end of my last TLOU 1/2 playthrough and it’s kinda janky by comparison (and I couldn’t care less about the storyline) but it’s a bit of fun. definitely heavily influenced by TLOU as well

some days you just have to go with the “whatever they ask for” method of making your kid dinner

my sister unfollowed me on the bird app in 2019 because she was “tired of seeing posts about nothing but edibles and sneakers” and just re-followed me on my “new” account last week, and now the site is dead. my family is ruined

bluesky just got immeasurably filthier

the skyline chili instagram account posted a picture of a restaurant celebrating one of its employees’ 50th work anniversary and the last slide she’s holding a louis vuitton bag that probably cost two grand. if I’m 70 and still working in food service just give me the fuckin cash man

until such time as the other site is fixed, I’m afraid I’m going to have to be annoying on the other ones

Adrian’s folly: walking a mile to the store for “one thing” when it’s 80 out and making the return journey harder by loading up on impulse purchases

this was way better than I expected

how’s the weather over on Bluesky, it’s pretty bad on twitter

I asked miles not to mention this publicly

can’t believe my family isn’t even grateful that I paid our stupid rent for june instead of spending that money on nuggets tickets and big coors banquets

mother? I barely know ‘er!
