Rogue, grump, dog lover, pop culture opinionist, scotch consumer.
My relationship ending after 20 years has to be the lowest point of my life.
After the crap of the last 10 years, this is just the worst thing I have ever experienced. Worse than cancer, worse than the fire, just the worst.
I’m going to get thru this, but I don’t think I can take many more hits.

I tried to buy a new gaming/work PC this morning from @corsair.com to replace the one I lost when my house burned down.
First Chase Bank blocked the purchase and while we were on the phone with them, the price of the machine literally went up by over 1k and wouldn’t check out.
Thanks Trump.

Today, we are in the local McDonalds parking lots in #Altadena. It’s where FEMA have set up shop. The sense of sadness here is all encompassing, like a real, physical blanket woven purely of despair.
Everyone here lost everything.

Hey folks, as you may know, we lost everything this week when the #EatonFire destroyed our #Altadena home.
It took everything we had. We have the clothes on our back and not much else.
If you feel able to help, it’s would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

So Spectrum Internet want my home insurance info to bill for the router that was destroyed when my home was burned to the ground in #Altadena during the #eatonfire
What a wonderful way to kick a person when they are down!

30 seconds or so.
That’s how long it takes for my brain to wake up in the morning and remind me that our home, block and town is gone.
#Altadena was set on fire by SCE and left to burn by LA County officials as ‘collateral damage’ while resources were sent to the Palisades, Hollywood and West Hills.

Got this notification at 4.30 am this morning, turns out it was prophetic.
Our house is gone, our street is gone, most of #Altadena is gone in the #eatonfire
Just like us, our friends neighbors & thousands more lost pretty much everything overnight.
We are heartbroken.

i loved the What If...? comics as a kid and really enjoyed season 1 of the series, but #WhatIfSeason3 was a bit disappointing. it had some fun performances, but fell flat overall.

@paulsemel.bsky.social, @annoyedgamer.bsky.social, and i have a nerdy chat about it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrMg...

Downloaded Stalker 2 this morning, I was very keen to give it a try but since it doesn’t seem to work with an XBox controller via Gamepass Ultimate for PC, I think I might have wasted an hour or so.

That’s some good viewing right there. Got to give thanks for @lfcr.bsky.social !

I would never have guessed that NYC was the home of so much royalty.
So far I have seen the kings of Donuts, Falafel, Coffee, Waffles, Hot Dogs and Bagels.
Who knew?

Spent the last 4 days in NYC and it’s done more to heal my soul than anything ever could, mainly because they are already Xmassing so hard.
While I love LA, it just can’t compete when it comes to the Xmas experience.

16 months later and I’m over it. Finally realized that it’s the quality, not the quantity.

Would the last decent person to leave ‘X’ please close and lock the door behind you. Then seal it with liquid concrete and weld some 10 ins thick steel plates over the door so the rest can’t get out?
Thanks.

Being on X felt like the cancer had crawled out of my prostate and onto my phone screen.
Now it’s so nice to open up a social media app and not be greeted with page upon page of bile.
Hope it continues.🤞

Finally deactivated Twitter today. Took me way too long to be honest.
So much sewage in human form there, from the top down.

As the new season approaches, I decided to write about my almost 50-year relationship with @bbcdoctorwho and the amazing woman who sparked my love for the show.

Question: How many additional social media apps must we sign up for to make Elon cry?
