Yea, he really does love me. And always waits for me to either come out or get home.

Insulating the outdoor cat house for the winter. I hope Imposter knows how spoiled he is, and how much I love him since he attached himself to me. Still can't get him inside (he's feral), so the least I can do is make sure he's safe & warm.

Since the office gives me free lunch, snacks, and drinks, I figured I should actually go in to take advantage of it! Even though I'm full remote.

So I made sure to make myself at home! Haha. Already getting the best looks 😝

Does anyone know if these have any actual worth? I have 2x unopened Titanfall Burn Packs in good condition. Just been in storage.They are from the RTX 2014 event.

I see just a few on eBay, opened are like $200 and unopened $500. I don't believe that, so figured I'd ask the BluSky void!

The fact that people in power can go after someone they don't like, or someone they want to get back at, & have no repercussions is appalling.

Not just that, but the power to ban anything you don't like, that shows you in a negative light, & any negative press is just fucked. Everything bad is fake

Finally, finally, finally back to regular streaming this week 😊

Not for anyone else except for myself. Using it as a way to hit some backlogged games & have fun.

Primarily focusing on Wednesdays & Fridays after work (Central Time).

Yesterday I got my Flu Shot, Covid Vaccine, and one of my immuno boosters all in the same day. I'm dying today.

If someone can Doordash me ice cream today, I would love you forever please and thank you!

Now, time to continue to die.

@yozetty.bsky.social @timturi.bsky.social Every time I feel like I've finally gotten rid of this for good, it seems to find its way back to me...

Reminder: I'm not afraid to dropkick any & all ICE agents.

I've been tear gassed, pepper balled, rubber bullet-ed, maced & tazed in the past at protests & for training purposes.

Also, those fat lards can't outrun me. I will purposely play the Benny Hill theme on my phone as I run in circles.

Every day I keep forgetting. I don't even know why I keep opening it???

Cat Distribution System Update:

He now waits for me on my porch to finish my morning runs so I can feed him. I still can't pet him, but my porch is a safe place for him. I'm installing an outdoor cat house tomorrow.

I still don't have a name. Maybe, Echo?

Just what I needed on Sunday 🖤

Last minute decision. Promise kept. All laughs. All smiles. Ran alongside one of my best friends. No expectations. Just fun every step of the way!

Another Core Memory achieved 🖤

📷 THREE RUN TWO

The Cat Distribution System is really trying again to send me yet another cat.

Fun running the Chicago Marathon today! Plan to high-five everyone, pet all the dogs, sing, dance, be goofy and enjoy the day. Hopefully I'll still finish around 3:45 with a smile on my face 😊😊

Back to enjoying morning runs. Running, one of my greatest joys ❤️

This weekend I:

1) Got tear-gassed by ICE (protest)
2) Headbutted an ICE agent
3) Helped run them out of Pilsen (Chicago)

Would happily do it all & will do it all again. It's the least I can do. Seems like I can handle tear gas better than most, and plan to chuck it back into their SUV next time.

I think I found this year's Halloween Costume. Artie, The World's Strongest Man.

I love my Xbox, AND this is complete idiocy. I'll most likely take a break from my subscription and just focus on the games I actually have.
Microsoft is increasing the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate by 50% to $30 a month ($360 annually)

➡️ news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/1...

New updates and changes to tiers, Essential, Premium, and Ultimate, Cloud streaming quality, etc

The Adventures of Pete and Pete is still God damn amazing! Finally able to rewatch it again, and it still hits hard.

Also, 'Eerie, Indiana' is another show that still holds up. Someone needs to come re-binge both of these shows with me, Please & Thank You!
