if you're trying to take a time out from the horrors, high key recommend browsing the dog clothes clearance section at HomeGoods

this shit is so stupid and perfect

today in "puppies are praxis"

(bc everything is on goddamn fire but it helps to remember small soft things still exist and are good)

the wee beastie absolutely decimated the first mat I got for his crate so I had to pick up another one

it is genuine artificial Muppet and he loves it

pittie in a raincoat
I know
I know

it's serious

many things are absolutely awful but the puppy keeps doing this thing where he shoves his snoot in my armpit to keep his lil nose warm while he's napping

that part's p good

yeah, it's always hard to let them go

but happy to share / puppies are praxis

this guy: *decides he'd rather sleep on the couch, tysm*

me: nice try. time for bed.

beastie: *LOUD HARRUMPH, reluctant shuffle to his fluffy Muppet bed*

me: sir.

the most put-upon puppy in all the land: *SIGH FROM THE DEPTH OF HIS SOUL, trots back into crate*

this was such a good, smart decision

that I totally foiled one episode from the end bc an attractive human invited me to a low-key hang with local restaurant people

spoilers: I am too old for even the lowest-key of hangs with local restaurant people 😂😫

he and his team also made us thank you art, which was amazing

💜💜💜

he stayed at my house one night in like 2015, when they were doing the big Last Unicorn tour! it was rad

he liked my dog way more than any of the humans in the house, as was right and proper

WE DID IT, JOE

of course now I'm trapped

but luckily I already got more laundry started so I guess we can just stay here for a bit

in my defense

bright solstice, bsky

from me and the wee beastie
December 21, 2025 at 11:17 PM
I just realized that for the last like four years I have watched at least one truly terrible Christmas film

this year's might be the worst ever

tonight's "feature?"

(blame @biggiesmediums.bsky.social)

cut to

(sometimes the internet makes nice things happen)
December 20, 2025 at 2:03 AM
a great thing about adopting a puppy is when said puppy curls up in your lap all cute and sweet and snuggles into your chest

and then looks you dead in the eyes and chomps your entire forearm

good thing he's so fucking cute
December 15, 2025 at 6:27 PM
okay *somebody* out there must be an expert in Jainism and also watching "Pluribus"

right?

help me, internet, I have a really fun/weird oped commission idea 😂
December 5, 2025 at 10:45 PM
