This is where I post from:
An image grab of The Simpsons episode “Reality Bites”. Lenny is in a derelict house, the front facade fallen over, clutching a spoon and a can of opened beans. He is wearing an old tank top, striped underwear, and slippers.

Just for fun, name two completely unrelated movies that share the same director.
The poster for the 1999 film ‘The Limey’, directed by Steven Soderbergh. The poster for the 2017 film ‘Lucky Logan’, directed by Steven Soderbergh.

I’m loving seeing people get into Death Stranding 2. There seems to be a real appreciation for the series since its initial release.

Meanwhile, me in 2019:

MUAHAHAHAHA I can pull things apart and put them together
An image of a PS2 with its case pulled off, showing the exposed power supply, a dusty fan, and a HDD enclosure. The motherboard of a PS2 with the heat sink pulled off. Surrounding it is the controller and memory card connection, the fan, the power supply, and a little iFixit case with all the screws organized. Tada!! After cleaning the board, adding a new watch battery, the PS2 is reassembled. Also there’s a steelbook of the Wicked 4K in the image because reasons.

Rude there’s no Star Trek licensed dog collars available to purchase.

All I’m saying is this is the face of a commander who knows the difference between Ceti Alpha VI and Ceti Alpha V.

He’s earned his gold command uniform.
Lieutenant Junior Grade Sergeant Pepper (AKA Serge) resting on patio furniture. It is a close-up shot of his face, in bright daylight to show off the 15 year old French bulldog’s greying fur along his face, chest, and paws. The blue tones of the seat cushions beam from the direct sunlight of the rooftop patio. He has an adorable smile on his face, enjoying his elder years.

RUN do not walk to your nearest local book store and pick up @scaachi.bsky.social latest book March 4!!!

She will bully you otherwise.
A picture of Scaachi Koul’s second book “Sucker Punch”, released March 4 in book stores everywhere. The book is crooked, at an angle, overtop a lovely quilt my partner made, modified from a quilt pattern design to become all the colours of the rainbow. But back the book, GO BUY IT

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
At the gym, where a friend took a photo of me in my tights and tank top. The top is loose, with an imagine of Jesus wearing a halo, arms bulging and carrying a protein shake. Underneath, it says “Hallowed Be Thy Gains”. I have my arms behind my back to show some definition in my chest and arms.

A view of my kitchen sink, with a sponge inside, and a dishcloth on the side. A glass chemex is in the centre, broken into two pieces. I was washing it and it slipped out of my fingers.

I need to bring my setup to record my deadlifts. Until then, there’s this evidence??
A selfie of me standing in front of a mirror. I’m wearing a tank top and shorts, long socks for deadlifts, and flat shoes. Behind me is the 280lbs I am deadlifting for 3 sets of 8 reps.

His head is resting right on my kneecap. It’s heavier than you think.

I am in slight agony.
My dog, Serge (full name Sgt Pepper), resting on the bed with me. His head is resting right on my left kneecap.

Taking a selfie from the side Another selfie. This time facing forward, my right hand on my stomach. A final pose, awkward as all hell.

Soup heads, rise up
A picture of piping hot chicken noodle soup I cooked. I found a TikTok recipe and decided to give it a shot. I didn’t add a few things at the end, mostly fresh herbs. Behind the soup is my dog Serge really begging for some soup.

I will fully admit using only one page for your Home Screen and making it mostly social apps is certifiably unhinged. I just don’t know the alternatives?

Woo!!

Toooo infinity, and beyond!
Yes I’m aware that’s a Toy Story reference. I’m holding the new 4K Steelbook of Galaxy Quest.

A screen grab from “The Shawshank Redemption”. A wooden panel, where the phrase “BROOKS WAS HERE” carved in it.

A photo of Shawn reading on stage a recent Naked Boys Reading event. A Halloween event, he has fake blood on his temple, which drips into his beard, sliding down his neck and chest.

Loved Star Trek growing up. TOS was on often.

Regardless of when he appeared on screen, I ran

Core terror memory, absolutely
Balok, or rather, the puppet Balok used to intimate people, from the Star Trek TOS episode “The Corbomite Maneuver”. Face portrait of a puppet, large bulbous head, long nose, and a small mouth. He has piercing yellow and black eyes, like a cat. He is shrouded in green and red tones, masking his pale grey complexion.

Yup. We frozen now

Post dog pics I guess?

It was at this moment I realized perhaps looking bloodied wasn't a great choice.

Still looked rad.
Reading a book on stage naked. Fake blood is applied on my chest, shoulders, and face.
