She's like Togepi! Togepi is 7 lbs and is a tiny kitten size, but she's 2.

She's also super soft, the softest kitty I've ever touched

You never know! Maybe someone will post old photos haha.

I double-checked and you are definitely in the feed if you were curious.

The feed only includes posts with photos/videos by default, although I've gone back and forth about mixing in text posts

I did have Tiki Bar in there, right below Trader Sam's. I have MOST of your other suggestions in there already as well, but I'll add the others - thanks!

But sometimes the drama is real though.

Like this time when I made a pen pal out of the flaming ruins of someone else's relationship

Look I'm just saying sometimes the drama is real and it's juicy.

I made a toxic friend this way

It is a GIANT list of keywords + hashtags, with some users thrown in (usually tiki bar accounts, e.g. @thelostlagoon.bsky.social is on there).

I can't even capture all the sources in 4 screenshots but here's my best attempt. It's set up using @surf.social.

It would be nice if there was a "browse backups" button here or something like that just to see what's available, not sure how difficult that would be to do depending on how you implemented the backups (and obviously if it's just 1 file I'm out of luck anyway haha)

I can confirm that on my PDS's drive, those images are all there, as expected, uncorrupted.

Below is taken from the PDS container itself, in storage/blocks/did:plc:kf7kejzn4dpqczmp6jd3uci6.

Although PDSLS says the blobs can't be found... but they're right there...

Reminds me of my little girl who was found underneath a house all skin and bones weighing just 230 grams and now she's 3.6 kg!

Still smol but she's just a precious little girl

Hmm. Says all the blobs have come over, but we already knew that thanks to Bailey's comment below.

I'll restore from a local backup once I'm home, and worst-case I'll just remake the post.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Hmm. They WERE working - my PDS is running from my homelab and I did some reconfiguration the other day which knocked out my avatar for a hot second.

My avatar came back but you're right - those pics are missing.

That said, the MOOver doesn't seem to be able to resolve me rn (@baileytownsend.dev)

My view for the evening. Farther back than I was last year but not by much

Got my awkward Game Awards photo and AMD gave me a cute cat pin
December 11, 2025 at 11:51 PM
Last year my fiance kept seeing this girl with purple hair on the stream, but not me. This year I will be the one that shows up in the stream
December 11, 2025 at 11:10 PM
Made it to The Game Awards, hopefully with pink hair I can be seen on the stream this year
December 11, 2025 at 11:07 PM
New hair

Sometimes I worry that there was a reason this child was the runt of her litter

(Alt: a small black and white cat is staring at a ceiling fan. Her head wobbles as she tracks the blades until it slows to a stop. She ducks when a blade passes overhead, as if it were going to hit her from ~2m away)
