He/him. Support your local neurodiverse. Anti-AI. Unions matter. Cyberpunk genre hatchling.

On the various places with the various names.
I'm sitting in my car in a park taking a break from reading today. I decided to do that rather than overtime to clear out some backlog projects. And when I looked up? Glorious nature graced my view.

Shined a beam of warm sunlight into my core, and left me a nugget of joy.

Melancholy lunch today. Not because it's a PB&J sandwich, or that I've added Doritos, but because of what I'm serving it on.

I used to use these plates to feed my cat on.

Missing her today.

You need a couple lures or flies on the hat. Might I suggest a couple of sparkly dangly ones or feather tufted ones?

Found this on a googly search, might be more out there.

When I was happy.

Ok, more like amorphous spontaneous three dimensional blob of art clog. Parts are on order. Can't find patience, though - it's not on sale, apparently.

Using one photo on your phone already, what is the announcement at 2?

And the panic attacks began
Great timing.

Trying that life thing.

The next month is going to be pain. (Speaking personally.) It's not that I don't want to help out. I'm overcommitted.

So here's a cat pic to compensate.

The cat wanted to let Great Lakes Cheese Company know how much she likes their white American cheddar.

But she doesn't have thumbs. And is currently face down in a plate of said cheese. (Not going to post an embarrassing photo of her doing that, so here's an older photo of her and a toy chilling.)

Not to shill someone else's stuff, but maybe this would help?

Took this a couple years ago. Not so much funny as makes me smile and chuckle.

Came in to work with a surprise. This bird has been trapped inside the warehouse all weekend. I gave up on Friday trying to chase it outside. Today, it took just three minutes to get it to drink rainwater on the dock.

I didn't expect it to survive over the weekend. My Monday just got 1000x better.

Fur princess is silently judging you for not napping.

(quick search on Grainger's website pulled up this entry. And scads more "correction fluid" and "correction tape.". It's there. You're just not making any mistakes. Yay?)

I found this, and it has become my go-to. I'll have to find the link to the creator.

4 non-selfie images that convey my energy?

Screenshot from the National Park Service. Preserving for ... reasons. Sharing because, well ... Because I believe it.

I have a product that replaces the layer of smudges with a new one. Unfortunately she doesn't like to be handed around.
March 15, 2025 at 6:24 PM
I stock up when it hits $2 a brick. Or I can make a run to Grandpa's Cheese Barn (but that's not cheap - just a destination day trip splurge).

Today's small joy. (She was curled at the foot of the bed this morning. She hasn't done that this winter.)
February 4, 2025 at 7:51 PM
Hey. (Supposedly that's the most common way to start a conversation anymore.)

If you are feeling upset, or sleepy, or cold, or nauseous, it means you're still here. And while it's not the best of times, I'm glad you're here.

You are wanted. You are needed.
You are lubbed.
