World’s Worst (retired) Cowboy™️, at your service. Proudly queer. Proudly tired. Embarassingly Gen X. Introverted in reality, but online isn’t reality, is it? Writing, filmmaking, and healthcare are my favorite topics.
Sunset on Friday 18th December 1908. I have cleaned-up this astounding autochrome photograph of twilight 117 years ago, taken in colour by Julien Gérardin. It is an original colour plate, not colourised.
Americans genuinely don't understand how little they actually produce.
Never underestimate the importance of a good hat when the climate is harsh.
Can’t believe our country is being run by the villains from Buffy Season 6
You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

In the 1980s, video games let you fight Nazis but in the real world you had to maintain your house, family, and friends.
In the 2020s, video games let you have a house, family, and friends but in the real world you constantly just have to fight Nazis.
I’m trying to think of a glass half-full situation here, and all I can come up with is that I’ve seen enough Mad Max movies to know I have the wardrobe for the times.
Sigh... yes.
In case you're curious, this is the internal Meta "fuck DEI" announcement received by Meta employees
There goes my hard work. Hernia repair yesterday. Taking it easy today… and for a few weeks.
Just a reminder that Trump tried to lie and claimed the terrorist attack on New Orleans was the work of immigrants.
Because he will jump to any tragedy with glee while distorting the deaths of Americans to push his own agenda.
This is the man we said should lead us back on November.
Happy 2025.
Happy 2025*
*2025 does not guarantee happiness and side effects are likely to include internal screaming and crying
This MAGA Civil War is getting so sad. It’s tears me up inside to see brother-cousin fighting brother-cousin like this over the holidays.
Quick 6.64 mile Christmas Eve run
Nothing lasts forever.
Woooooooo!
Say it with me now.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Krampus? The large furry German dude who’s into bondage and won’t put up with bratty behavior?
Why would I want him to skip my house?
They need to stop the platonic male covers of “Santa Baby”.
I’m sorry, but, unless you’re obviously gonna let Santa pork you raw like Marilyn Monroe singing it, you’re not doing it justice.
Guys… commit to the material!
The image features a cropped screenshot of an article headline, authored by Alice Thomson, titled "Don’t replace the culture war with class war." Below the headline, a crying man meme is superimposed with text saying: "Bro please don’t worry about why you pay more in taxes than billionaires. Worry about the War on Christmas & The Trans Agenda.

Every conservative columnist right now.
My dog, Thor, has claimed my @chrislopezstudio.bsky.social holiday pillow as his own.
Everyone has their favorite Christmas movie moment. Sometimes it’s “Every time a bell rings, an angel gets his wings”. For others, it’s the “mankind was my business” monologue from Christmas Carol.
Those are fine, but this one’s my favorite:
Congrats! I can’t wait to see it (once work and the holidays allow).
Whoever and wherever you are in the US, think about something you can do to support marginalized people (LGBTQ, women, BIPOC... anyone not a white heterosexual Christian man) and then commit to doing it. Small or big, your efforts are needed now more than ever.
Your annual reminder that Cindy Lou is currently the frontman of a hard rock group, “The Pretty Reckless”.
I will never, ever get over this.
Bluesky has overtaken both Instagram and Twitter for the FIRST time.
