A baggage claim area of an airport. Several large white boxes have been taken off of the baggage carousel and a couple of guys are reviewing the shipments. Maybe hard to see in the image, but the shipment boxes are marked "donated human tissues".

Update: finally made it home! The eagle has landed!

Before leaving the airport, I went to pick up a suitcase from baggage claim, but the luggage bags seemed outnumbered by large white boxes of donated human tissues. Christmas came late for patients and maybe some cannibals in the area, I guess 😋

An art piece in my hotel room, depicting the Pentagon building five times (each in a different color) and layered sort of like pancakes if some of the pancakes defied gravity and levitated like ghostly spirits.

Ah well. Time to sleep easy. Goodnight, Pentagons.

My nightmare continues. I've escaped the coming winter storm in upstate NY. But my flight out had been delayed and we landed in DC *just as* my flight home flew off, so I was rebooked for an early-morning flight tomorrow to Charlotte NC then to home. Really, I should just seek out a flying Vixen.

Only a couple hours to go at the airport until I get to find out if the eagle will take flight today. Here's hoping 🤞

Meanwhile, I need help staying awake. Send helps! 😋

Hotel checkout is in an hour and my new flight out doesn't board until this evening, so I'm thinking about bumming around Syracuse NY a little in the meantime (but also not wanting to lug around luggage in this weather). Any particular recommendations from the hive mind? Thanks! 😊

Well fuck me from all angles. I boarded my flight out earlier this evening only for freezing rain to prevent take off. Rebooked for tomorrow, and now I have a hotel bed to desanctify. Send help/nudes/whatevs. 🤣

Visiting family. My mom's house is tiny, so I overhear her shows from the other room. A man is now yelling at a ghost: "I'm not afraid of you!"

The house is clearly possessed. But, title deed or no, if the possessor can't live peacefully with others, the ghost has every right to have him exorcised

Was putting on my shirt after waking up this morning and, putting an arm through my sleeve, my thumb decided to stab me underneath my nose and draw blood. Guess it's gonna be that kind of day 🤣

Greyhound is a place for memories of a kind. One time when I was 19, I took a nighttime trip on Greyhound to see a friend, and this guy about my age with weird teeth tried to make out with me on the bus (I declined) and some other lady had broken down and converted to Mennonitism or somesuch...

37 here. Also live in Ohio.

Aw, thanks ☺️ I try 😋

Me chilling on the couch

Indeed. 😊 Just trying to be cozy and lazy while it snows outside

Pretty good here, thanks. It's a quiet day here; I'm just recovering from the festivities yesterday and trying to keep warm 🤣

Howdy 😋 How's it going?

Thanks, you too! 🎄🎁☃️😊

Another family Christmas without loss of life or limb. Doggo's worn out from barking at the strange relatives, kitty's had too much catnip and is napping, and I'm just here, voting presents.

Hope you are all having a wonderfully festive Thursday! 😊

December's been a crazy month for me (work- and health-wise) but hoping to be able to relax some over the holidays. On my trip from the airport, my niece introduced me to an important cultural artifact and it'd be remiss of me not to pay it forward 😋

Introduce yourself with 5 cars you've owned.

Darla, Jasmine...oh, I thought you said cats (though I suppose one never 'owns' a cat, now since I think about it...). Sorry, I never named my Hot Wheels as a kid and couldn't tell you much about them anyway. They had wheels, I guess.

A parachuting clown decoration supported by a light fixture in a coffeeshop bathroom. He is watching you and knows what you're up to, and yet just smiles creepily.

I guess this coffeeshop didn't put away its Halloween decorations yet. Though, in fairness, isn't every day Halloween these days?

A welcome mat reading "Merry" in front of a public trash receptacle on the sidewalk

Ah, wasted no time with your Hohoho'ing this season, I see 😋

NYT: "NYC's closely watched mayor's race draws to a close"

My fucked-up brain's reading: "NYC's closely watched mayor's race ends in a draw." The horror...

Oh no, I haven't lost my energy or will or motivation or self-drive or whatever we're calling "conformity to the social imperatives of a supposedly individualist society." It's just the anemia talking

Five minutes: enough time to avoid the stigma of a minuteman, but not quite enough to mistakenly graduate into full-on wankerdom. It's a difficult balance, sure, but one might as well try one's hand at it

Those pinatas really don't know what to think 😋

Feeling relaxed this evening 😊

Me lying in bed naked

I've been going through a lot these past few weeks and haven't had much nakie time lately, so I gotta change that tonight 😋 May require cuddles too 🤣 Hope you've all been well!

Thought I was done shaving when I still had the left side of my face to do. Guess it's gonna be that kind of day 😅

Hope your day's going well! 😊

Me resting my eyes while sitting on the couch

I wanna nap...

Me at home, allegedly alive and well.

Hope not to disappoint, but I'm alive! 😊 Been pretty exhausted lately, navigating palace intrigue and so on. But somehow I'm still doing well under the circumstances.

Could still use a haircut though

That one time I joked that my relationship status was "relationship anarchism can be its own kind of oppression"--the joke was as much that I'd say such a thing as it was about RA--and out of the woodworks, a rare, wild Pokémon appeared to defend the philosophy.
