KATIE KATIE KATIE @katie.bzky.team !!! SHE DID THE THING

BEHOLD
Screen capture of Twitter post and comment Acyn (quoting Donald Trump): AOC is Low IQ. If you give her an IQ test, have her pass like the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. Those are very hard... They're really aptitude coignitive tests. Let AOC go against Trump. The first couple of Show more (cut off here, photo of Trump on Air Force One talking) Quote-Tweet by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Hello Mr. President! Out of curiosity, did those doctors ack you to draw a clock by any chance? Was that part hard for you too? Asking for 340 million people.

for the SAKE of FUCK remember that the Enragement Farmers and doofbots are HERE on Bluesky as well. For example...
not the actual Wikipedia page.
A replication of a Bluesky media post replicating a screen shot proporting to be from Wikipedia listing "Notable celebrity members" of the Church of Scientology. This is not in fact a screen capture of the correct page displayed when viewing the Wikipedia page, most likely posted by a lonely enragement farmer trying to micro-transaction their way to internet fame.

A photograph of Donald Trump speaking with his eyes closed. Caption: ANY TIME THIS MAN IS MAKING THIS FACE WHILE HE'S TALKING, HE IS ALSO CRAPPING HIS PANTS. Although let's be honest here, he's likely to be crapping his pants at any point in the day. There is a non-zero percentage that he shart himself this morning, and continues to do so.

INCONCLUSIVE
A screen capture of me asking Google "IS IT ILLEGAL TO HIT ELON MUSK IN THE FACE WITH A BOAT PADDLE?" There's a Quora question as the first reply: "Does Elon Musk have a punchable face?" and then a bunch of "People also ask" which includes "What are Elon Musk's rules?" and "Where does Elon Musk live?" So yeah, Google can't tell me if it's illegal to hit Elon Musk in the face with a boat paddle. I think we may have a case.

See, if you go get your passport photo when you're already tired, achy, and more than a little frustrated... they'll compare it to you in person when you're at customs and just wave ya through...
This is a picture of me. Blocky, various shades of blond hair going gray, lots of gray streaks in my beard and mustache, in a rumpled green plaid camp shirt which is not sitting evenly on me at all, with a general expression of @__@ or possibly g__g which will mess up text to speech engines sorry gang. I look tired, achy, and more than a little frustrated. There's also this one random weird cowlick of hair right at the part on my left side which I didn't know was there but it adds a certain something to the overall photo. My passport picture, gang.

It is 20 degrees F in south Texas.
BREAK OUT THE OREGON HAT
A photo of me - scruffy, bedraggled, wearing a dark brown plaid “bomber” hat with furry and a flap that is folded back above my eyes which makes me look like the Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight or maybe just a lot better protected from the bitter cold

ya ever see a picture of someone you have a compulsion to draw mustaches on and can’t draw ‘em on the PC you’re using so you grab a tablet and search for the sloppy beyotch’s name and find a bunch of other articles & expand your portfolio even more than planned?
screencap of an article. The text is really irellevant (Musk locking government workers out of computer systems) but the picture is of Elon with a drawn on Hitler mustache AND a black eye! Bonus! photo of Elon that some media flack ran through a filter so it’s black and white with a green background and red lines looking ooh so cyberpunk except Elon’s wearing a baseball cap like a dipshit and sporting a black eye and Hitler mustache scribbled on by yours truly photo of that sloppy beyotch Elon Must all 8D Hello Fellow Smart People only some miscreant has blacked out two of his teeth, drawn on a Hitler mustache, and put a big scar on his forehead. It was me. I was the miscreant. photo of Elon “Living Proof That Generational Wealth Ain’t A Sign Of Greatness” Musk looking pouty. Some fiend has drawn on a Hitler mustache, a black eye, and written PUNCH ME! on his forehead.

Gawrsh. Apparently Reddit does not like my collection of "Drawing mustaches on Musk as a form of self-care" for r/MildlyVandalized
A screenshot of my post on the Subreddit r/MildlyVandalized - in which I took a screen capture of the ZEIT ONLINE photo of Elon Musk giving the Nazi salute (the arm of which was literally taped over with blue tape) and scribbled a Hitler mustache onto the picture. Below the post is the alert "Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/MildlyVandilized"

Spotify has me pretty well filed:
Screen capture of Spotify's "Matthew Legare aka Tobias the Adequate" Radio channel. "With Bo Burnham, Kimya Dawson, Garfunkle and Oates and more". Yep, that about covers it.

A screenshot of Spotify with a search for "Tobias the Adequate". Yep, I'm on there. The "top result" song is "The Dread Peasant Festus" which isn't what I'd have expected but still HOLY COW I AM ON SPOTIFY

222 is a nice symmetrical follower count...
Yet another screen capture of the top bit of my profile which indicates that, at the time of this screen capture, I have 222 followers. Nice and symmetrical. That's honestly the only significant feature of this image.

HA! 198 Followers!
A picture of my profile and now the follower count is 198. That’s it. That’s the joke.

199 followers. I have so many questions.
a screenshot of the top of Maffoo’s Bluesky profile page, indicating that he had 199 followers. This is a number which confuses him because he’s just this guy, you know?

TWO OF THE STRAYS KITTENS HAVE COME OUT FROM UNDER THE CAR AND ARE NOW WITH THEIR MOM. THIS IS MORE CAT THAN PLANNED
a medium close up shot of Bootsie - a black cat with white-tipped paws - lying on her side on a maroon fleece blanket in a cat condo. A very small grey kitten - Smol Shadow - is snuggled into her tummy. A smaller version of Bootsie - Itsie Bitsie - is starting to clamber over its mom’s back lega to get away from the giant goober taking the picture

From the My Little Pony comic “Neigh Anything”, on the left - Shining Armor (a white unicorn with a dark blue and teal mane) is attempting to be all cool and say “Hello” to Princess Cadence on the right (a pink unicorn with pink and white mane). Shining’s delivery leaves much to be desired, coming out as “hELLo!” which implies a voice break typical of hormonal teenage males. Cadence and Twilight Sparkle (shown on the right in front and slightly “lower” than Cadence - a purple unicorn with a dark pink and grape purple stripe in her mane) look startled and deeply concerned at this outburst.

this shall not be a productive day
Matthew is sitting in a red and black high-back gaming chair is wearing a blue t shirt and has a large fluffy dilute calico cat in his arms. Said kitty is a mix of light gray, white, and light blond and has her head firmly wedged into the crook of Matthew's left elbow. She's purring, which isn't something that can be depicted, but it's something that Matthew can clearly hear. Matthew's expression is one of quiet, slightly resigned satisfaction because Matthew knows he's not getting anything done for a while. MEANWHILE the background is mostly made of dark brown IKEA "Billy" Bookcases with a variety for ukuleles and other stringed instruments, on the shelves. There are also some books and random accessories as well.
