Hello! Long haul truck driver, amateur drone pilot, truly bad banjo picker.
Expect photography and long silences
🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈 He/Him and in a wonderful relationship with @starlightserpent 💓
(My opinions are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of my employer)
Coming up on 6 hours in this loud as bay🙃
Once again rescuing another load. Buddy's pump stopped working, so we are using our gravity pipes to feed from his trailer to my pump to the customers silo. Trouble is, his load has cooled, so it is VERY thick and slow.

The truck didn't want to start this morning, and like, mood, but we both got work to do.

Was busy as hell today.
Finally got internet at my house, finally put my snow tires on, did a few small renovations, & meal prepped about 3 weeks worth of food for the truck. My feet are killing me and I'm tired, but it's been a satisfying day. Off to Ben & Jerry's in Vermont tomorrow for a delivery

I see you, silver Audi SUV, flashing your lights at me in these Montreal streets. I'm not moving over so you can illegally pass me. In fact, I'm gonna drive a bit slower and more carefully. Oh, look at that, a cyclist wants to merge. #LongHaulLife

Even on my day off I'm pulling wagons. That #LongHaulLife got its claws in me good. Hope the weather holds out for tomorrow ls big move (spoiler: it won't.)

I guess there's no such thing as a convenient day for your wallet to go missing, but moving day feels like a particularly powerful dick kick

Oh Montreal traffic....Always giving me time to take a breath, stop and think about life. Whether I want to or not.

It genuinely amazes me the number of people I've seen mocking people on SNAP benefits for no real reason other than to be cruel.

Happy 33rd birthday to my trailer, I guess, damn. #LongHaulLife #TankerYanker #Tremcar

Learned that
A: my new neighborhood has porch pirates
B: Amazon makes you wait over 24 hours before they will let you submit a "I didn't get the package" claim.

Got to my Unload early this morning, so it's going to be a good, long weekend for me, assuming I didn't just Jinx it lol.
It's finally getting cold enough that I can wear my insulated gear. This high vis sweater I got from the company has no right being this comfortable. #LongHaulLife

Just pulled over on the side of the highway and got a big ass snapping turtle out of the middle of the road.

Men will really live like this and not see a problem.

Didn't think it was possible, but I somehow managed the millennial dream and managed to get myself a house! Super thrilled to be going on this journey.

Look, I'm not SUPER well versed in the occult arts, but I get the feeling the truck stop sage and crystals probably isn't bringing the vibes or energy you want it to.

Listen, I have a lead foot myself and aren't a huge fan of speed cameras, but COME ON guys...this is embarrassing.

Had a weird one tonight, but a good lesson I should try to remember. #LongHaulLife

Had to go rescue a load when one of my co-workers stopped working. Essentially we're drawing into my trailer's pump, and using that suction to offload.
He was lucky that I was in the area.

After about 10 minutes of Googling I'm really irritated that they've made it illegal for me to sell my kidney in most of the modern world.

I just got passed by a champagne colored Subaru with a surprisingly large bumper sticker that read "PRE-MARITAL SEX IS STUPID AND RISKY"
Imagine having that be the take you want to be publicly known for.
