He's wearing a straw hat and a green tunic. Behind him is a green square.

Title Screen for the Yawhg. "The Yawhg" is handwritten over a frame with bronze and purple floral embellishments with two bluebirds at the bottom. Behind the frame the city the game takes place in is out of focus The city map for the Yawhg, a castle town with a forest, arena, alchemy tower, gardens, palace, tavern, hospital, and slums areas to adventure in. It sits by the seaside.

Male pattern baldness
My warrior of light, Gilgrim Dunmoor. A Hellsguard Roegadyn with brown hair and purple eyes. He has a mustache and beard, oval frameless glasses with embossed brass arms, and greying hair with male pattern baldness. He used to shave his head but has loosened up since going to Tural and decided to let it grow out (also hats look better on him now)

The Mandate of Heaven is mine.
Screenshot from Mahjong Souls. It's the 13 orphans special screen. A woman stands stop a mountain surrounded by golden light. Foxes made of light bound around her and she holds a glowing orb. At the bottom it shows the hand played (13 orphans, pair of green dragon) I won with a Ron from the person who was in 1st place. They have -537000 points and I have 116700

Woke up in a cold sweat with this laying on my chest.
My beefy left hand holding a red box with 精品旅遊麻將 (boutique travel mahjong) written on it in gold lettering with a gold colored frame around it. Behind it is a quilted comforter. Behind that is my legs but you can't see them.

Cute fat boys when it hits 60° and the leaves start to change start dressing like Robin Williams on the movie cover of Jack
Robin Williams on the movie cover of "Jack" a movie where he is a child who looks like a grown man. He's wearing a red polo with yellow and blue stripes, oversized jean shorts, sneakers with rolled-down tube socks and laces that drag on the floor. On his back is a brown backpack and he carries a grey lunch box in his left hand. He is flyirned towards us, waving with his right hand.

In order to level up my tamagotchi planet I have to start a new guy but I don't want to get rid of my sweet plump son, Kabutotchi
Kabutotchi, a fat little rhinoceros beetle tamagotchi. His head and arms are orange with a big round red body and little blue feet. He has a pair of small wings. His cheeks are puffed out and he appears to be blushing. Kabutotchi chilling in a hot spring with a rubber duckie Kabutotchi banging on a snare drum. There's a hammock in the background.

@winesloth.bsky.social Asked me about Kamen Rider Gills and I had 3 paragraphs of details typed out but deleted it all and just told him this instead.
A discord screenshot of August/Winesloth/CoffeeKaiju asking me what "what's his Thing" (regarding Kamen Rider Gills) I responded: "He got kicked off the swim team because he freaked out his coach :( and he can bite >:)"

I'm gonna scream. I'm going to puke. Cactuar is my enemy for life. What do you mean I have to pay out 48900 points? What do you mean I'm at -30,900.
A screenshot of Final Fantasy XIV Doman Mahjong. The cactuar (who had the lowest amount of points) got 13 orphans and the player had to pay out 48,900 points, putting them at negative 30,900

*mentions mahjong out loud once*

AT&T: "Quake before our AI generated grandmas playing Mahjong. Purchase AT&T Fiber®"
An AT&T sponsored ad email. The picture is an AI generated image of four elderly women sitting around a mahjong table. The tiles are haphazardly piled in the middle and their hands are hovering in mid-air, facing the wrong way, or impossibly long.

Had a great time at Gateway Fate with @vieratrickster.bsky.social . Super proud of @dickblastoff.bsky.social for his performance and the work he did on his costumes!

Two people sitting with a crowd behind them. The one on the left is my friend, Coffee Kaiju/August Leshy. The one on the right is me, BardZaku/Gilgrim Dunmoor. Both people are wearing face masks. Coffee Kaiju is wearing bunny ears to represent his warrior of light, August, and a combo breaker hoodie. I'm wearing a Schlafly Beer company bandana, a n open button-up with FFXIV job stones, and a pride D&D ampersand tank top underneath it.

He's getting better about bringing the spring all the way back to me instead of dropping it halfway across the room.
A black cat with crossed eyes laying down in a big-ol box. There's bite marks and chew marks all over the box. In between his front paws is a neon green plastic spring.

A couple of weeks ago @xraybeeb.bsky.social showed me this TikTok and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Whoever made it loves Kamen Rider in a way that I understand deeply.

Eating five of these every hour until my posting improves.
A big-ass bottle of generic Tylenol. The bottle is clear and the pills are big capsules that are half red and half grey. They will not give you autism 😔 but you should also be careful about how much acetaminophen you take.

I want to thank everyone for making Cheeseburger's gotcha day an unofficial holiday but I promise you that he won't understand or appreciate it.

Happy gotcha day to my boy, Cheeseburger! He's been with me for five years now, growing strong and healthy!
11 Kittens who look to be 2-4 months old standing/sitting/laying on a concrete pad in a grassy yard. There are several tabby cats, a grey cat, 3 orange cats and 2 black cats. The two black cats are circled in red with a red question mark above them. One of those two is probably Cheeseburger! One of them looks skrunkly and is walking to the left, the other one is sitting directly in the center of the frame. Picture is from August 2020. Cheeseburger on his 2nd day with me. He is a skrunkly black cat. There is an injury on top of his head, above his right eye and his right eye is squinting. He's sitting on a brown boot on a speckled bathroom floor, his paw rests on a grey bath towel and his tail curves sharply at the end like a cane. Cheeseburger several months later. The wound on his head has healed and his eyes are fully open. He is clean and comfortable. He is laying on a red couch with his arms folded in front of him. In front of him is a tablet playing bird videos leaned against an earthy green throw pillow. Cheeseburger in 2025! He's gotten very big and strong! The picture is from a low-angle, which makes him look bigger than he is. He's strutting along a window sill, the white light from outside highlights his whiskers and accents the reddish-brown in his dark fur. You can clearly see in this picture that his eyes are a little crossed.

I genuinely miss the taste of acid nasty cigars. One of these and a cup of black coffee and I'm having a good time.
5 Acid brand "nasty" flavor cigars. The Cigars are thick and comical and they are standing on their wide end. The band around them is red with the "ACID" brand in black and gold. The flavor, "NASTY" is in bold white on a black band closer to the thick end. These cigars had a rich bitter taste that went well with coffee or a cola (in my opinion). The ends were a little too thick for a standard cigar cutter so you might have to bite them.

Is now an okay time to talk about my love for the Provo, Utah flag from 1989-2015? What if whoever did it was just real mad that they changed their cool flag into the shitty boring flag they have now?
The flag of Provo Utah from 1989-2015. A white field with "Provo" (the P is capitalized and the rest of the letters are lower-case) in a bold and italicized sans-seriff font with a shadow underneath it. It's angled upwards towards the right and slightly off center of the flag. It is underlined by a rainbow gradient bar that extends from the far bottom-left section of the flag (this end is purple) to just under the "o" in Provo (this area is red). Just to be clear, I don't live in Utah. I just feel very strongly about this flag. I love a good flag. This flag, while outwardly "bad", is completely unique and I love it for that. Graphic design was the passion of whoever designed this flag, and that shit was tough to do in 89'. Canva didn't exist back then. Personal computers were still a novelty. This is a flag that could only have been designed and used officially at that specific point in time. And for that it is beautiful. I still have 1000 characters left to type whatever I want???? These are some other flags I think are really good. I am only judging the flag designs, not what they represent. They are in no particular order Argentina Lebanon Wales Canada Arizona The Municipality of Bocoio Colorado Kansas City Lockport North Newton Ogden Syracuse Belarus Brazil Kenya Moscow Kitwe Seoul Chicago Hong Kong Alexandria St. Louis The Lesbian Pride Flag The Bisexual Pride Flag The Pansexual Pride Flag Laval Ottawa Jocoro Zaria Cedar Rapids Denver Dodge City That's all the flags I like. The current Provo, Utah flag. Its a boring-ass light blue field, in the center is a white circle. Inside of the circle there is some water, some green mountains, and a white sun outlined by a golden sky. It's shitty and boring and has no personality. Nothing unique about this one. Making me mad just looking at it. I don't live in Utah.
