see that little blemish of reddish pink in the sand to the left of the seal?
At first we thought omg adorbs 🥰 look at that little baby seal. I love that seal. It’s making cute seal sounds.
then we too noticed the red spot. then we drove a little further and saw an unimaginable horror. TW do not read on if you’re bothered by death and suffering
on that little cute seals right torso was a gigantic fucking shark bite about the size of half a large dominos pizza. Out of the bite spewed the seals insides.. laying right there in the sand. those weren’t cute seal noises we’d heard, those were death moans.
that transition from ‘omg look at that cute seal’ to ‘oh shit someone take that thing out of its misery’ is something I’m struggling to reconcile.
I hope everyone had a better July 4th than that now dead suffering animal. Happy Monday.

iPhone 16 review. a totally non-technical review. context; i upgraded from a 14pro that i got two years ago. got the 16 pro white with 512g (wish id gotten 1tb but i flinched at the price) this phone cost me $1,414.29.
i didn’t need a new phone. old one was perfectly fine but wife needed a phone, hers was a 12 and battery was strugglign so justified the purchase by giving her my old one. plus new camera marketing was stellar and im a sucker and i just like to buy new stuff.
so i guess my thinking is this - we’ve reached a critical mass with iPhones, big leaps in capabilities stopped several iterations ago. my two year old device never seemed slow, camera never seemed bad, it never left me wanting for more.. continued..
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! a quick thread about marriage.
*this picture is from 2005, the day Candice and I eloped, got married in a Texas courthouse without telling anyone. we had gone on our first date just 3 weeks prior.
Marriage can be absolutely brutal. its work all the time. anyone who says otherwise is a fucking liar. Sharing every aspect of your life with another human is unnatural and requires relearning how to live.if you can do all that then you win. a life shared is a life lived
and while marriage is hard being alone is also hard. you have to choose your hard. there are no cheat codes.
any English majors out there? I heard someone use ‘cocksure’ in a sentence and it sounded awesome and smart and badass but I’m not sure I understand it’s usage vs just saying ‘sure’. I want to be cocksure I’m suing it properly (that seems right, right?)
I should probably get a job or something
way too much free time on my hands since I left new york city
