Yeah, well, big muscular shit don’t do it for me, but if you show me a Sam Elliot coded coyote man…
Tall, thin, kind guys with good smiles and nice eyes can get it.
Ian McKellen, Bongidoink Crumpledanger…you get the picture.

So how big are your cones?
This one came with a Bluesky link ( and I've quote reposted/reskeeted/rewhatevered it. And the answer is: nowhere near that big. Shit, I'd have to make a hard pivot to hoop skirts. Even parachute pants wouldn't hold a pair of those fuckers.

This giant pinecone belongs to the coulter pine! It can be found in California & Mexico. Nicknamed “the widowmaker,” it produces some of the world's largest pinecones—which can weigh ~11 lbs (5 kg) & plummet to the ground with deadly force!

Things are bad for a lot of folks right now, and I feel…conflicted in the shittiest way…about waving my little “help we’re drowning” flag surrounded by other floating victims of several consecutive shipwrecks, but waving the damn thing’s all I have at the moment.
I’ve obviously been pretty absent from this account lately. It’s pretty shitty to bounce in with a request for help, but an explanation will follow.

Oh, and please share this around. Yeah, I wanna see awesome shit from people who follow me, but I also wanna see what other folks are vibing on.
For my birthday this year, I’d like to see things that make you happy.
Show me a project or a piece of art/music/writing you’re proud of, a photo you took that you really love, a photo of you that made you feel good, a funny story…just anything joyfully celebrating you.
SFW/NSFW…doesn’t matter.

Honestly, the only reason the dot isn’t a vanishing spec off the bottom left corner is that some of questions are worded to involve “strangers”, and that’s not something I’m into. I don’t really go for the whole “a stranger is just a friend you haven’t fucked yet” philosophy.

I rarely cry. That’s not a hypermasculine thing; it’s more a general mental illness and trauma/abuse thing. My late stepfather made it clear when I was young that I never had appropriate emotional responses. So, I slowly choked off my emotional responses until they barely ever rose.

Really not doing well tonight. Neuro appointment today to go over head MRI didn’t go badly, but also didn’t go great. May have Schrödinger’s time bomb camping out in the middle of my brain. Could be benign lesion; could be a cavernous malformation that will eventually bleed, maybe severely.

This thread is worth sharing on this side, too.
Been off antidepressants for about two months now. Haven’t been able to get back into the doc the get things set back up. Working in a fourth-floor office in a building where every floor above 1 is a mezzanine has meant a lot of whispers of “Just over the railing and it’s better for everyone.”

I feel like keeping this visible is a good thing, but it feels fucky to repost it on the same day that I lead off with a morning thread about suicidal ideation.
To be clear, there’s always going to be an overlap between “things are bad” and “well, end it”, but that’s not where I am right now.

Muhhhhh…I should keep sharing my semi-desperate plea for financial aid, but I don’t want to keep putting my pathetic ass in front of others. No one wants to see my shaky tin can and sad face.

It’s easy to feel like the world is an awful place, but there is so much good. So many people are kind and caring, sweet and lovely, wise and funny and open. Never forget that your neighbors are worthy of love and human grace. And never forget that you are, too.

Yeah, no. That app is to shitshows what the Silmarillion is to prologues. Account deleted. Ask me shit in DMs or replies, until I find an alternative that isn’t infuriating.
"would it be weird if i called you even if it's been forever?" - I’m one of those folks who, despite loving to hear from my friends, does not like out-of-the-blue phone calls. Message first, then call, and I will be ready to indulge you for hours. Doesn’t matter how long it has been.…
