Friends, it is w/a heavy heart that I share news that @munchkinfunk.bsky.social passed away last night after battling congestive heart failure & pulmonary fibrosis. Ryan was a real one, a great friend & father to 3 amazing kids & countless pitbull furkids. He asked me to share this msg with you all:

As is custom in our family, after the Distribution of the Gifts begins the Playing of the Games, in this case Telephone Pictionary. House filled with love and laughter, as it should be. My heart is full. 💕

Getting up early to make cinnamon rolls has the added advantage of giving Santa time to fill the stockings before everyone wakes up. Yeast dough FTW! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate.

Had to put up extra hooks this year for all the peoples. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I am going to have a house full of people I love tomorrow. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

This is quite possibly the most nonspecific error message I have ever received

Me: [takes home tablecloth from Axe & Rose to wash over the holidays] Zip: a clean tablecloth you say? Here let me help you with that (Yes, I will wash it again before I bring it back, #RCTID & #BAONPDX friends 😂)

Okay I bought Powerball tickets cos what the heck. It's not enough to end world hunger or stop global warming but it's definitely enough to do several righteous things. Taking your suggestions on where best to spend that $1.6 billion before taxes when it hits tomorrow!

This week has been exhausting for so many reasons that I won't go into at the moment, so when the Safety Director told me the school parking lot was underwater it was almost the last straw. Thank goodness I have such a supportive partner in @efilnikufsin.bsky.social 💖

For some reason my phone decided that what I really needed to hear on my drive to work this morning was Andy Serkis, reading the passage of the marshes in the two towers. Wouldn't that have been my choice on purpose but my phone turns out to have been correct. Well done smarty phone

Get your last minute No Pity & Riveter gifts Saturday! #BAONPDX #RCTID

The power is out at my school so I've spent the past 2 1/2 hours messaging that we have a late start, checking on people who already reported, sending kids & parents away, and then sending a SECOND msg saying lol jk We are closed for the day Surprise home day for the principal AMA

Become ungovernable

IYKYK. Anybody have the original saved somewhere? Asking for a friend. #RCTID

I just spent an hour+ on the ☎️ w/my BIL as he ranted about govt "overspending" & I raised my hand & said "whoa so there are 2 sides to that equation, can we talk abt the revenue side" & after talking thru Reaganomics & other tax cuts he basically said we agree on a lot, F politicians & hung up. Win?

Welp, it’s not a secret on FB any more. No sense in it being a secret here. My name Ryan and I am on palliative end of life care. AMA.

The fur trade is definitely not what it used to be

Lol what the hell was this that I found in the shower this morning @efilnikufsin.bsky.social, were you reading the fine print on the shampoo bottles again? How many times do I have to tell you: "lather, rinse, repeat" is just a scam by Big Hair Care to get you to use up the product faster

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

If they REALLY wanted to annoy people they would have forced diplomats to switch to Comic Sans

I am team em dash I am team semicolon I am team Oxford comma But if you ever see a sentence start with "Additionally,..."

My oldest just texted me for everyone's favorite family xmas cookie recipe and of course I have a picture of it on my phone for just such occasions this time of year so that was pretty awesome all around

Last game of 7v7 was tonight & I didn't get injured so I'm calling it a win even though technically we lost 5-4. But that's respectable considering we played down a person for the 1st half cos we were short on non dudes. I didn't sub out at all for this reason so the noninjury thing was def awesome!

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

GDI @efilnikufsin.bsky.social just Whamageddoned me😑

Let's all take a moment to appreciate accuracy in labeling for our airplane foods

Oh MAN I wish we weren't such responsible working humans. Flight is so full that they are offering a $1200 voucher PER PERSON to stay an extra day in Madrid, hotel covered. Stupid jobs and responsibilities 😂 W/ @efilnikufsin.bsky.social

WELP, sadly our time in Spain has come to an end, so we will be returning home today--er, tomorrow still to my PNW friends. Spain isn't perfect BUT I'm here to tell my US peeps that in a thousand tiny ways it is so reassuring to spend time in a country that reminds you that another way is possible.

This was so well written and entertaining that I immediately sought out the author to follow and holy cow what a gem she is, as a writer and human. @naoisedolan.bsky.social if you are so inclined.

What could be putting young women off marriage? It really isn’t that much of a mystery | Naoise Dolan

Supporters marched to the stadium with full throated chants with variations of fvck Gijón lyrics, not our opponent tonight AND not even in our league any more. I can appreciate the petty hate as any #RCTID person can.

I'm gonna go with yes.

It's true doe w/ @efilnikufsin.bsky.social
