If Pokémon were real and you were just an average trainer, what would your team be?
(Be as realistic as possible. No Mythics or Legends.)
Mine would probably be SF adjacent, if not influenced more by the East Bay hills where I grew up! I did allow myself one dream pick, though 😅

... that's most of my Black Friday shopping done & out of the way 💜 Have to say though, it feels nice to go in the store vs order online again... and the wait wasn't THAT long 😅

I'm sorry you have to deal with this - I've always loved your work. 😔
Apparently there's a setting that you halve to uncheck to opt out of the AI crawling your posts. But it's still frustrating that these settings are only service by service & not universal - let alone that they're not clearer.

What fictional creature/villain traumatized you as a child?
(Well not as much a thing as the feels from the intro of beauty & the beast. Yes, the guy was a jerk. But the darkness closing in? *shudder*)

BAGEL?!? I'm sorry. But who cares about bagels when you can eat ass? I'll have my bagel or donut after I finish eating that ass 😉

Also, correct me if I'm wrong... But not sure I can fix no space in my bag by buying more slots here... It's more than I'd spend on any game in the app store to be honest 😅

Starting to get tired of the new PTCGP pack... You'd think that they'd choose which cards to include in the pack, given that the original cards are in other packs & the parallel foil cards are new. But no. They included both here (ie. Haunter)... and these cards don't even count towards past packs.

I'm not usually super adventurous when I eat out, but my goal is to start trying a lot of new places in the area.
So tonight I tried this German beer garden down by the water & I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food (warm, hearty, & not too oily) & the people there. I will be back!!

(That barbershop was really neat too! Beer & cold brew on tap - a nice place to relax while you wait - nice friendly barber... Maybe I should've come earlier!)

Every time I take a walk around Santa Clara University, I marvel at just how pretty the campus is.
Then I realize just how much money SCU gets - and how it dwarfs the funds that other Jesuit institutions receive...

Just found out that my grandma has kittens in her backyard 💜 It feels like a sign! Been thinking of getting cats but I've never really felt ready to - now I can just watch them grow up with Mom & adopt them when they're old enough - and hopefully when I'm wiser...
