I just have Lily now, but my sister's cat Louise also used to live here. She's a standard issue as well (with socks)

Oh yeah, we got those Standard Issue™️ cats!

What kind of critter is this?

A black, brown, and orange mackerel tabby cat lying on a gray rug. Her arms are stretched under her chin, while both of her legs are sticking out to one side, making her look like a seal.

We are so far beyond satire at this point.

Ooops my bones probably need more than a single molecule of vitamin D.

A blood test result for Vitamin D, showing 11.5 ng/mL, well into the "deficient" bracket, which goes from 0 to 20 ng/mL.

The software I'm working on runs on a RaspberryPi and serves a webapp. But, it's experimental and things can break so I built a little "rescue" web-app that lets you view status, logs, and restart the service or reboot the machine. 😎 <100 lines of python, love it.

A rare sighting

The most beautiful weed in my front lawn

It's a picture of a yellow flower. I don't know what kind of plant this is. Maybe a kind plant nerd will tell me in the replies. Maybe not. Life is unfair, but at least this one little yellow flower is pretty.

Mental health got me feeling like Sisyphus and that boulder of his.

Graph from my mood tracking app, showing the average mood for the last two months. March is quite bad, with some consistent improvement in April, only for a sharp decline over the last few days.

Y'know, I didnt want a new fridge, but the old fridge forced my hand. Long live the new fridge.

Been thinking about this post again.

A post from the r/Atlanta subreddit from 8 years ago that says "I wish Atlanta could put a metal plate over my hollow soul".

Between depression, heartache, and the state of the world, it's hard for me to be "visible" today. It means a lot to see so many others speak out and be visible. So, I'm still here, still visible.
