@LeoBurr I see - now I wish I’d be able to get one mask more 😅

@LeoBurr Sin of Pride could have some stripes painted to his face 🤔

@LeoBurr Unfortunately all tigs and yerfs are already deployed for other emergencies. Here only a goat/fish-hybrid or a demon are available. 🤔

@LeoBurr Oh - a there is an update available. Will have to talk to my doctor soon 🤔

Needed a break from work. So I let Yorick take over for a while 💀

A thread on Reddit. The top comment is Hexxas asking "What the fuck is a gender". Bookhead714 (also OP) replies: a male goose. Insomniacs cataclysm replies: that's a gander. a gender is a category of media. Vallence Dragon replies: that's a genre, a gender is a type of iron or steel beam. Fire king 08 replies: that's a girder, a gender is a dating app targeted towards gay and bisexual men. Anna_pet replies: that's Grindr. A gender is a poison-ghost type Pokémon from gen 1. Utopia_mycon replies: that's a gengar, a gender is an online retailer for industrial materials and supplies. CatPunch_ replies: that's Grainger, a gender is Harry's classmate and Ron's wife. bunch of letters replies: That's Granger, a gender is a tool used to polish or cut through metal using a spinning disk.

I love this type of reply chain meme so much

Three CFX masks on display heads: Sin of Pride: a demon with horns on the forehead and the chin. Yorick the skull: a white skull with a neck and chest looking like gray dried muscle tissue. Capricorn: a goat/fish-hybrid with fin like structures on chin, cheeks and the center of the head. Also golden horns and blue floppy ears. The skin is mostly white with a light blue tint and a few golden accents. Next to them sits a small red plushy demon with big eyes and little horns. In the background a calendar page of this month showing a picture of two guys in hazmat suits hugging in the forrest.

Sin of Pride and the Emotional Support Demon welcome the new guys to the squad:

Yorick the Skull (greyscale): a little grumpy but for some people that’s the kind of support they need.

Capricorn (zodiac style): sometimes nice and playful, sometimes quite […]

The same box again. The masks now only in clear plastic bags. The skull is clearly visible. The other mask is seen from the back - big scales and golden accents on otherwise light colors

And the bubble wrap is gone. I’m certain you can already guess the masks.

Same box as in the last post. This time most of the styrofoam is removed. The shape of two mask on their display heads is obvious. The masks are still covered in bubble wrap. One mask seems to resemble a skull. The other has some big scales one the back.

Looks like I’m getting closer 🤪😈

A closed cardboard box. The labels have been removed.

A cardboard box containing lots of styrofoam and the CFX mask care and use instructions on top.

Same box as before. This time with less styrofoam. Two bubble wrap bags start to emerge.

Something was delivered yesterday. Now I’m finally ready to open the box.

No:I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS! Yes: COULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE? I’D LOVE TO EXPAND MY KNOWLEDGE A BIT.

Stupidity isn’t cute. Acting like knowledge that someone is presenting is worthless is actually quite a turn-off. Unless the intent is to dismiss someone…And if that’s the case, there are about 2,000 better ways to do it.

@rubberdogs Wenn ich mich richtig erinnere, sind wir uns mal kurz begegnet - und ich hoffe, dir mal wieder über den Weg zu laufen. 🤗🫂

I am once again begging people to create written manuals on websites for software-y things they make, and not just video tutorials. Tutorials are not reference guides, and videos are not ctrl+F -able.

Periodic reminder for my friends seeing this account on bluesky
it's made using the mastodon-bluesky bridge.

I can only interact or respond if you follow @ap.brid.gy

Obviously the masks I ordered are both in stock and will be shipped this week. I assume they will arrive here some time next week. 🥳🤪

Won't forget explaining in a government security clearance interview I did for a friend that "yes I'm aware they posts nudes online, it's pretty normal in queer & furry circles to do that, no I don't think you could blackmail with it, all our friends know".

They were approved.

@gearlicious Everybody take cover! The fediverse is in danger of exploding soon! 😱🫣

@gearlicious Except for a single inspection JYT-4803 was never checked. Seems like it has to adjust its startup routines to include the checklist.

Inquiry: Where does a drone have to file the checklists?

@gearlicious nice boots and gloves

@gearlicious the eye on the second picture looks a bit like the drone to be is not a willing subject.

And a question: what is the tube with the pink(?) connector for?

Can't say enough good things about going to therapy

Hey BlueSky peeps, if you're following this account, just remember it's a bridged Mastodon account. If you want to interact with me (and please do!!), you gotta follow @ap.brid.gy to opt into the bridge 👀

Something I learnt from helping a friend deal with their FOMO and social paranoia:

Don't feel like you owe someone your presence, they aren't comfortable being owed something they didn't loan.

Something about my hand is different today 🤔
