Thinking about it, vampires really shouldn't kill people. A human has 3.5 - 6 liters of blood. Nobody drink that much in one sitting, you'd hurl. Yes, you can chug 0.5 - 0.75 liters but that's about it, and that is definitely survivable.

Thought the exact same thing just today

I took a "check-5-viruses-at-once" test today and I don't have Covid, Influenca A or B, RSV, or ADV. Good old Rhinovirus for me then I guess. I don't know why a virus that toddlers can deal with makes me ill for several weeks, but I guess at over 40, I am an old man now.

Even though I've been doing really well all week, just texting to my sister about our mother's death almost made me weepy. My sister never knew her as well as I did, but suffered just as much. So maybe the fact that we're the only people who know how horrible she was, did it for me.

Hang in there, warrior! 💪 Man flu is a real ordeal and you're crushing it just by surviving! We see you! 👀

Guess who's deaf again! 🥳 (And also dying from man flu)

Well, I just witnessed a mexican standoff between my three cats and I didn't bring my phone.

I asked Gemini "when was december 14th a monday between 1994 and today" Now I'm in a full discussion about Heartstopper with a fucking AI, and I'm actually teaching it stuff!

My regular "I can't get shit done and I hate my life, but I've been dealing with this for decades now, so what" depression might be turning into an actual "I hate myself and I want to die" episode. No need to worry, I'm not there. I'm just realizing that this depressive episode might be a bad one.

I've been battling a couple of health problems this past week, one of which is the feeling that I'm getting a cold but it's just not happening. Now my right ear just did this weird crackling thing that reminds me of last year's middle ear effusion, but please, God, not again.

I'm starting to watch Heated Rivalry so brace yourselves for my opinion 😆

Think God and Jesus squabble over breakfast? "You've got to get a better handle on your fans." "Dad I try but they don't listen to me, they're doing the literal opposite of what I told them!" Then the Holy Spirit goes "media literacy is dead, I keep saying," and they both give him a death glare.

I got some soft treats that seem to be made of heroin, judging by the cats' reactions, and Bella unwittingly took both her pills 💪

Turns out that Bella has high blood pressure and will need pills for the rest of her life. It's day one and she already bit me. It's a teeny-tiny puncture, so I'm not heading immediately to the ER, but I might have sepsis now 🥳

This morning at around 9 am, I got a message about when Hotfix A (discussed yesterday at EOD) would be done because nobody put in the time and energy to change a single parameter in the running system that would make the hotfix unnecessary. I said "I hope to finish it today".

Tini is breaking ✨️The Castle✨️ and I haven't even had the energy to finish it yet. #catsky #CatsOfBsky

Happy Fresh-Flowers-For-My-Boy! I fucking love daffodils

I'm either developing psychosis, or somewhere in the neighborhood somebody is blasting basses at a level that is so low that I can barely consciously hear it. But somehow, I can hear it inside my eardrums. Like when you lay on your arm in bed and can hear your heartbeat, that kind of sound.

Looks like we’re getting Black Church Bay in 2026! #JoeLocke

I just had a code review *with the customer*. Why exactly did he hire externals if he knows the perfect way to do things and apparently has the time to comb through *MY* code???

Has anyone ever talked about how Elle says "Let's talk about something else" about as often as Charlie says "Sorry" in S1? #Heartstopper

I just called my adopted cat, my sweet little baby girl who has been with me for 15.5 years "Suse, eeehhh, Teen, eeeh, Mausi!" and I'm officially a *DAD* now.

My colleague is making me challenge my inner Jane Spring. "Can we maybe xyz (since I'm unwilling to read the documentation or take notes when you explain something)?" Me: "Hmm? Yeah, sure, eventually."

What nobody has said this entire weekend, or maybe nobody even recognized: How much my mother looked like her own mother. I've only seen my grandma a couple of times in person, but apart from the hair color, they were almost identical I must never ever bring that up in front of her though

Oh damn, the Alive livestream is tonight. Like a week ago a had a *really good question* before falling asleep, immediately forgot it, and never remembered it again

So, I've spent the weekend with my entire family whom I haven't seen in years. My mother because I cut contact, the rest because I was scared to come out and then started transitioning. It was a lot but good. I really hope I can see the rest more often again.

My father sounded pretty much alright on the phone since yesterday, so I don't actually know what the situation is atm. He and my aunt, who's currently staying with him, also asked if my cousin had my address for when she picks me up tomorrow. We're both in our 40s,we can figure out how to carpool!

My cousin just talked me into going to my father's on Friday. I don't even know where we'll all sleep. I shouldn't be making decisions like this right now. But oh, well, death and stuff.

I feel a strong urge to text my mother "Don't worry, I will adopt Tina & Susi, they will be taken care of". But at one point she had said "If anything happens to you, I will not take care of your cats, they're going straight to a shelter!"

I just called my father, because this morning he said he'd call again tonight and then didn't. But he does have a lot on his mind right now. I'm putting what we talked about in a picture with a content warning because it will contain graphic descriptions of death and my bad mental health

Well, my mother has decided she wants to die. I'm both kind of in shock and don't know what I'm supposed to do now with this whole being-estranged-for-almost-a-decade thing

"This package is delayed due to severe weather in the delivery area". Bitch, it's drizzling. There are also no severe weather warnings for hundreds of kilometers and the package was never out for delivery in the first place. Just fucking admit you forgot it in the warehouse.

This wasn't exactly a planned project but I'm kind of proud of the progress I made today

This is going to be a hit! #catsky #DIY

I'm going to scrap one of those 12, which was a bit excessive tbh, but fear not, I already have a replacement in mind!

The QA team has approved The Box™ #Catsky #CatsOfBsky

Everyone knows how very much against AI I am. But I'm currently working with a technology I haven't touched in years and in the meantime they included a shit ton of AI that actually works. Like, this thing is reading my mind and giving me actual working code for what I want to do 🤯

I finally made that damn chicken!

Colleague: Where is the data?? Me: It's right there. Colleague: Well, I'm using this interface that's notorious for the data not being up to date and I can't see the data! 🤦‍♂️Sounds like a you-problem then...

Apparently Sunday now means migraine-time.

Why exactly did I decide to start playing Maid of Sker? I fucking hate horror games! It already got one cat-startling scream out of me; any bets on how long until I give up?

So far I've found 4 / 16 antibiotic pills that Bella secretly spit out. So I'm assuming she's going to have to go for another round...

I just realized that I might be able to "fix my broken lamp" by replacing the bulb and HOW DID I EVER SURVIVE THIS LONG???

Next year I'm going to need one of those Christmas tree netting machines cause that fucker barely fit down the stairs, through the hallway, or the front door

The customer really liked my presentation 💪 I kind of really want a drink now.

Check out what I made!

I just did a puzzle where a clue for "Alaska" was "Island". I hat to break it to you, Muricans, but Alaska is very much attached to Canada.

I'm starting a new DIY project because I don't already have 12 unfinished ones lying around 🤷‍♂️
