I used to write stuff, now I make videos, trying to stop being a news raccoon. Yeah, I don't get it either.

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad
February 10, 2026 at 8:18 PM
I may skip a video today.

I have an idea, but I feel like I got beat up in my sleep last night and I'm so lethargic today.

I'll script it and see if I can get energy to perform it, but don't put your money on it today.

Twitter is a cesspool.

But once in a while, they have a few gems of fake outrage responses.
February 10, 2026 at 7:44 PM
Yeah, that pesky little thing called "The Constitution" again.

So that makes 🐘 on record for abolishing / ignoring the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 10th, 12th, 14th, 16th, 17th, 22nd, AND 23rd amendments AND several parts of Articles 1-6.

I'm wiped out, just so tired, sleeping, or trying to, for only 2 hours at a time jut 'cuz "AAAHHHHHH"

But I have new glowy toys today, I might see if I can get pics later or tomorrow night. And I realize in this fandom saying "new toys" has connotations, but it's not that.

A rare early morning video, because it basically wrote itself last night but it was too late to make a video.

So during the super bowl last night, ring doorbell said the quiet part out loud. this is why you should ditch ring.
February 9, 2026 at 2:58 PM
Apparently Ring doorbell ran a superbowl ad where everyone suddenly figured out that it's a privately owned surveillance service that can find "anyone".

Welcome to the knowledge club, everyone. I did a video about this a month ago, and the news is as old as October when they announced the merger.
So I guess people didn't know this, but if you have a ring doorbell, they recently signed an agreement with flock meaning any officer can access your camera without your knowledge.

They claim they'll notify you, but come on. Given what's going on do you really believe that?

I feel bad for my housemates. They can't get a watchable version of the game.

The TV feed is broken, the livestream they found has an AI Trump pushing crypto, and the only other online feed they could find is a twitch streamer doing an auto-play of Madden '25.

And I'm here eating cornbread, so....

Raise your hand if you really don't care about the "super game" being run by a $20B corporation that promotes a game where 40%+ kids that play it and 91% of their pros have life long brain injuries (CTE's) and has on average 10-16 fatalities a year that's on the air right now.
February 9, 2026 at 12:26 AM
Do I really feel like making a TT video nobody will see today?

3 major furry cons happening
1 "Superb Owl" on TV today
and the only script I have is talking about said owl and how they rake in $20 BILLION yearly, including $80M from TODAY ALONE.

I should just finish my laundry instead.
February 8, 2026 at 10:03 PM
Just to say this, I'm not at FurSquared.

Various reasons, but the biggest is that I'm not in a good headspace to go to a furry con. I know someone would set me off today and I don't want to do that.

So I'm just home today, self-medicating my issues with caffeine and peanut-butter choccie candy.

A bit of news today,

It's not that he posted the racist thing, it's that his own office defended it, and his entire party has the audacity to pretend to be surprised that he posted racist stuff.

Or that they had to pretend to be offended by it, you pick and choose.
February 6, 2026 at 10:15 PM
I would cover this as a story today, but I can't make it funny.

Which you think would be easy, but the study itself is kinda... icky.
It's time to think about human reproduction in space, scientists urge
"If reproduction is ever to occur beyond Earth, it must do so with a clear commitment to safety, transparency and ethical integrity."

So @fursquared.com is this weekend, and still debating if I want to go.

If I do it'll be a 1 day thing on Saturday, and I'd pack the suit with me even though I have no place to "stage" out of. (Which one? No clue)

It's really just a matter of how much social battery I have, which isn't much today.
February 6, 2026 at 8:20 AM
Yeah, gonna skip today.

I'm already hitting the "blank staring 'cuz lack of sleep" phase here, and I'm feeling like I can't even read anything 'cuz my vision is sleep-scrambling.

Tomorrow, I'll try again tomorrow.
February 5, 2026 at 9:52 PM
I'm considering covering this as a story, but I see it going further back and I know it'll take more research.

Mainly I wanna see if this is newborns, or in the 5-6 year old demographic 'cuz the big anti-vax push of 2020 is making the kids pay the price for parent's political choices.

So I'm sitting in a hospital waiting room. I'm the wheelman today, not the subject.

But I didn't realize this fleas gonna be a "sit and wait" drive today.

Oh well, at least I'm dressed now, right?

Questions I really don't want answers to #2138

If anthro animals were real, and there was a subculture of them that were into human-sonas and art and animations and dressed up in people-suits, would they call themselves "Skinnies" or "Fleshies"?

A little news out of Minnesota, and why I'm not celebrating that they're pulling agents out.

On one hand it's good, on the other I see what they're doing.

Almost 11 PM, and all I want to do is drive over to Kwik Trip, buy bags of potato chips, and sit here depression eating them all.

Who's coming with?
