Welp. Time to check my email and play BS spam bingo to find out which author I’m paired with for the final round… 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

This is 🔥!

Our Deebot has been unpredictable lately. It is old. Probably needs a holiday.

I want one… but I want it as a canvas to stud with jewels, rhinestones and shiny, flashy bling-bling so my cult will be FABULOUS!

It’s a better deal than most wannabe dictators and actual dictators get…

Nope. Regular prison is fine. No special treatment. 😁😁😁

Cinnabar? It’s a red mineral, maybe it can stain and make dye? It is the source dye for vermillion, so yeah… cinnabar.

Well, “soulless evil wrought of pathetic people who deserve no pity, mercy or the common decency afforded to all creatures under the sun” seems apt to me.

I wish the 3-year old and mother the best and hope for their future in a place better than they are being force to leave.

Slither puppy!!!!!

Best to just presume they are all sold out…!

Guess I should look elsewhere to sell a game based on Nat Turner…

Companies should not be required to store the recorded document, just that it was verified. There is no need to keep the PII, just a record of the fact that it was checked.

Anything else raises significant liability issues for everyone.

Good for you! 😁

Going to pretend I said something funny. Brain is not working at the moment. 😅

M. David Scoble @mdavidscoble.bsky.social · 2d

And… are you old enough for this ride? 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Today, Zach is off his food. Again.

Pain was the cause the other day but today I think he feels tired and will eat when he is ready.

He did take all his meds, and eat a few bites for me.

Triffid. Clearly a Triffid.

More likely… people just leave tiktok…

I was wrong yesterday. I like to post crafty things on Tuesday and amateur radio things on Thursday. Ugh.

Enjoy this picture of Zach as he heals as an apology for my thematic transgressions.

Zach, a 10-year-old black and tan silken windhound whose tan has turned to grey. He is sleeping and his very long nose is foreshortened in the image to appear bigger than his entire body.

Zach was attacked by a dog recently and suffered serious trauma. He had to have life-saving surgery. He is now recovering at home.

Those MREs from 199x won’t eat themselves… not like the ones from the 80s…

I also have vision issues and struggle with the alt text window. I end up expounding on the photos as the text has a higher limit than my actual post… although that might be due to my own predispositions… 😅

M. David Scoble @mdavidscoble.bsky.social · 3d

I guess it’s time to go back to glazing and nightshading all my bluesky photos for maximum AI poisoning…

Stupid gits.
