I swear to god. There IS a #cat there. Not an inky black void of hand devouring, belly rub absorbing, feline bliss.

You know what I DIDNT want for fucking Christmas? The #flu. And yet here I am. Worst part? Aside from a slightly phlegmy cough I feel FINE. But because I’m not one of THOSE PEOPLE, I am avoiding all activities so as to not share the love. Which means losing the last weekend of Dickens Fair. Fuck.

What are the odds on Orangey McFucklechin trying to get the #pope fired?

Updated to #IOS26. This new #LiquidGlass design philosophy? Well, my layman’s review follows: this shit is some hot garbage. My PROFESSIONAL opinion? It sucks. In order to break rules properly, you need to know why you’re breaking them. You need to have a purpose for breaking them, and you /

You are ABSOLUTELY not alone in this. I do live improv in massive crowds, give high pressure presentations, and more, nary a drop of fear is to be seen. My in-person charisma stat is a natural 20. But if someone takes my picture? It’s “Stoned Ogre just shat himself”. Every. Fkn. Time.

Hey #BlueSky: can we get some kind of setting that filters OBVIOUS bots and AI garbage posters here? So we can just block them as a category? The BSky is for humans. Not planet killing, brain melting, clout chasing assholes.

Is THIS movie a good idea to make into a shiny kids cartoon? I honestly cannot tell. Am I horrified, yet morbidly fascinated? Yes. Am I going to see this? Yes. Will I be cripplingly high while I do it? No comment.

BASK IN MY GLORIOUS WHISKERS! #cat #catsofbluesky #whiskerwednesday

Thing I love about #BlueSky is that is I click a post or check my notifications and then click “back” it takes me back to where I was, NOT to the top of the feed. It really is the little things.

Publicly it would be OCR-B. The single most dismally unaesthetic font in existence. But all the interoffice communication would be in comic sans. Because that’s just how it is where I work.

Just saw a license plate that read: “E S F J” I am both horrified and impressed. Probably one of THE most #californiapeople things I’ve seen all year.

#Elf on a Shelf = #Snitch in a Ditch Just sayin’

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

Our healthcare “system” in this country is utterly broken. While we have possibly the most technologically advanced healthcare available, those wonders almost never make it to the street level. They’re reserved for those with the most $$ or most powerful connections. This article series shows why.

Solid track here. A bit Einsterzende, a bit Alien Sex Fiend, a bit NiN. It’s got a propulsive line that keeps cycling around and the vox are undistorted but dark and pointy. Would be good on a dance floor. Check it out. #goth #music

There is no “right” or “wrong” way to pet a #cat. There is only the way that generates #purrs, or the way that results in #blood being shed. Sometimes these are the same way. Pretty sure there’s some kind of life lesson in there.

#morningcat Here, have some extremely therapeutic orange. Her scientific name is “snuggleasaurus murderbeansiti”.

Poor decisions long atoned for. OR Dead Chaos Gods rebuilt as Orders littlest bitch. Kinda the same thing really.

GenX is NOT the “greatest generation”, FFS, we are barely (and I do mean BARELY) mid. At BEST. I now return you to your regular programming.

#latetotheparty Okay, I really don’t like most anime. It’s 99.9% stupid cliches that if you’ve seen them once, that’s enough. But on a whim I started watching #OnePunchMan. This shit is hilarious. It openly acknowledges and subverts all of those cliches. I kinda love it.

It’s ok. I didn’t have any plans today anyway. #cats #dog #lazy

Citizens United is a pox on our country. It sidelines the people and gives entirely too much power to corporate interests. It needs to go. To wit: How to Get Rid of “Citizens United” open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

#smallbusinesssaturday!!! Come to the #DickensFair in Daly City, tons of crafts, food, shows and more!! If you’re especially unlucky you’ll get a face full of me acting like a complete Dickensian maniac!

Just one? You’re killing me dude. But this track is a definite, I may not be British, but I am in fact quite: (If you see this post a song that says something about you and/or where you’re from…)

I have been #cooking all damn day. Guess who ISN’T #hungry now? #thanksgiving

You just died. The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you. Huh. That tracks. She tries to murder me every morning.

READ THIS COMIC. GIVE HER ALL THE READERS. I POWERED THROUGH ALL OF IT **JUST** IN TIME FOR HER HIATUS. MUST. HAVE. MORE. WEREWOLVES.

Fuck. I need to follow EXACTLY 30 more people. That way my following count will be proper (333). 303 is a weird number.

Said it before, saying it again. #oakland has the BEST food in the country. Today was Understory. A worker owned collective that just served me possibly some of the best pork EVER. DAYAMN. Sweet, smoky, and fall apart tender with a sweet pickle salad and rice. understoryoakland.com

Maybe. BUT THATS NOT MAC AND CHEESE. That’s the ghost of a goddamn kitchen murder.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you? I am so, so, SO fucked.

Pffft. Nemesis? She ain’t all that, just because she carried us halfway across the galaxy she acts like she the hottest thing since Emerson. She’s just a big damn taxi, that’s all……. ……. … She’s right behind me, isn’t she? #transformers #bots #toys

READ THIS THREAD. If you want to understand why we who have learned, and rarely, mastered a craft will ALWAYS look at #AI users with disdain.

#cartoon #wisdom Pinky & The Brain was a wildly underrated show. It captured the contrast of shallow intellect and true wisdom so perfectly. “Smart” people spend all their time trying to be like The Brain. Wise people just be like Pinky. I ain’t gotten there yet, but I’m working on it. Someday.

#pluribus Okay. One of the reasons this show gives me the willies? There’s an undercurrent of “only jerks are genuine” running through it, and that’s presented as a positive. I’m also obsessed with one question: 1: what happens when everyone joins the hive? What does the collective DO when that /

#comics I live them. I tend to read the stuff that is art and story first, BANG POW ZOOM last. Not to say I don’t enjoy it, but it’s never really “filling” - so to speak. So when I stumble across a story with a character who is just dripping with possibility, but the story is basically /

Malkovich, malkovich, malkovich? malkovich malkomalkmalkkkkkovich!! Malkovich Malkovich Charlie Brown!

This. 100% Well, genuine small business and handcrafts excepted, but that is only one oddballs opinion. :)

My woo? Faeries are real. And they will Fuck You Up if you’re not careful.

Last night I had a #dream I wrote a whole-ass book. Designed a cover. Got it published. Everything. Only to realize, AS I WAS BEGINNING THE PROMO TOUR, I had forgotten to have an editor take any kind of look at it. Mortifying. This is what I get for having a feed full of authors.

Hey #millenial folks. Has anyone called you a #boomer yet?

Prediction: #trump will NOT be in the #Epstein files. But some guy named Banolb Fnump will show up thousands of time. ………. Banolb Fnump needs to be skinned then shot into the sun.

Hey you. Yes you. Look, I know we all got problems, and we can’t give to everyone, but Lemonade here consistently post stuff that makes life better. If you can donate or repost, that’d be cool. Thank you.

Top five film genres: - stuff explodes real good, but funny too - in the future shit get weird - brain get undone before body does, messily - villain gets over it and saves day - shit makes no sense until it does

My fave time related phrase: “Will have always been….” No I am NOT high. Shut up.

Did anyone else catch the “shocking even for him” racism the orange felon displayed when insulting Taylor-Green? Like, his disclaimer made it even worse, because that is EXACTLY the language a white racist uses when they do a racism and then try dodge did it.

Oh that is HILARIOUS. A bunch of the webcomics I read I. The mornings are down due to #CloudFlare #failing. And the “more information” page is a page telling anyone who visits that……. ……they should be on CloudFlare. Best ad strategy ever. Fix #1: fire the marketing team and reinvest in security

I know there are a lot of people needing a lot of things out there right now. But if you can toss a coin or two to this place to help the critters out in the face of human encroachment- that’d be cool. I know the person running this, they’re 100% legit. #wildlife #animals

“Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.” Fitting. I have no saved memes.

Christmas traditions are not always bad. This is one of mine. Every years me and a few hundred like minded freaks from all walks of life gather here to wallow in the world of Dickens. It’s part Christmas Craft Fair, part dodgy history lesson, part bar, part theatre…
