My phone's maximum battery capacity is at 69%.

That's about 40 percentage points higher than my personal battery maximum capacity.
Screenshot of the section of my iPhone 11 Pro Max Battery Health & Charging screen that reads, "Maximum Capacity 69%". nice

Turns out it's because my VPN is set to connect to Netherlands.

Weird that the app gives me this "down for system maintenance"message though (website gives generic "Oops, something went wrong. Please try again.").
We apologize for any inconvenience. Our application is currently unavailable while we conduct essential system maintenance and enhancements.

Some get manicures/pedicures. Others, their hair done. Facials and other treatments are popular. Waxing and bleaching are preferred by many.

Me? I go for the full cat grooming.

There was good turnout today, but I don't know how it compares with the attendance here for the Hands Off event.

It was a bit of a journey for folks from Broward County, but that's no excuse as I showed up from far west Sunrise, about a 45 minute drive.

Those […]

Selfie of an old, Black, bearded man wearing a dark blue "Harris/Walz" T-shirt with part of today's protest crowd behind me A crowd is participating in a protest at Bayfront Park, featuring several signs. One individual prominently holds up a sign that reads, "PRISON WITHOUT DUE PROCESS IS A CONCENTRATION CAMP." A crowd is gathered for a protest in an urban setting, holding various signs. One prominent sign reads, "In 2025 you will learn what you would have done in 1933!" Other signs address themes like education and social security. Sign that reads, "History will remember the cowards that kept quiet allowed this to happen."

A gray female tabby cat laying in her bed looking up directly at the camera. She's a big girl in a rectangular bed in which she fits perfectly. Her form flows in such a way that she looks like a loaf of bread proofing before being baked. She's a very sweet, loving cat but her expression is one of indifference, perhaps bordering on annoyance, at being photographed. This was a couple of weeks ago at Saving Sage Animal Rescue Foundation in Sunrise, Florida. She's since been transported up north where they have an extreme shortage of cats available for adoption thanks to effective spay and neutering programs throughout the northeast. Infuriatingly, there's an overabundance throughout Florida.

I don't eat or like mac and cheese but my mom invited a bunch of people over for Palm Sunday and an early Easter egg hunt and it was obvious she was in way over her head when she bought mozzarella for the mac and cheese.

Hopefully people like it, my first […]

Large pan of macaroni and cheese cooked to what seems to be golden brown perfection. I won't be able to judge its quality because I hate the dish.

My two favorite signs from today's Hands Off anti-Trump protest rally in Hollywood, Florida.

I mean, Smokey's right af 🤷🏿‍♂️✊🏿
Three large black and white Hands Off stickers across the top of red sign with bright yellow borders on the left and right. In the center is the head of Smokey Bear flanked by #Resist bumper stickers on each side. Archer above Smokey it reads, "Only You" and below, "Can Prevent Fascism" White background bordered by light yellow, gray text reads, each word on its own line, "Computer, End Program"

I made a new friend today, Tara. She's a small black and white cat brought down this weekend by our team at Saving Sage Animal Rescue Foundation from a shelter in North Carolina impacted by Hurricane Helene.

I'm holding her awkwardly because she was moving […]

Old, masked Black man awkwardly holding a beautiful black and white cat with my left arm while snapping the selfie with my right hand. Thankfully the low angle of the photo has Tara, the cat, covering most of me, particularly my face 😂 She's just casually hanging, for that one instant, looking at something in the distance.

Dry cough and fatigue all week. Maybe it's run its course, but my #COVID test is negative 👍🏿🙏🏿👏🏿

I'll test again in 48 hours to be sure.

Hopefully it's not COVID-related at all, but it's definitely possible and I'm not sure if I've had it at all since […]

[Original post on mstdn.social]
At-home COVID test strip with just one blue line indicating a negative test result. I'm holding it above the section of the instruction leaflet that shows how to test for a negative result. This is my first COVID test because this is the worst I've felt since the pandemic began. I've had a dry cough and periods of extreme fatigue since Sunday. Both symptoms have subsided, but I'm still having coughing bouts that can last a few minutes, overall.

We're under a #tornado warning, again. In #southflorida.

This is not normal, at all. Well it didn't use to be, more accurately.

A scene against a black background: Jack Skellington of The Nightmare Before Christmas standing on his curly hilltop peak with a fierce expression on his skull and in a slightly crouched yet aggressive pose, backlit by a bright full moon. Floating above him on each side are the orange-glowing eyes, nose, and grin of a Halloween pumpkin to his left, and a cutout of his skill with scowling eyeholes and evil grin to his right.
