My friend and I took the kids to oaks park earlier. Noticed a group of people with multiple men that just gave me bad vibes. Later in the parking lot gave the dude driving this truck some shit for their stupid flag. He stopped his car and reversed and a few other vehicles in his group also stopped their vehicles in front of us. They tried to fight us and called us faggots in front of children all for saying the flag was ugly and to get that shit out of Portland lol. Ended up being the same men who gave me bad vibes earlier.
They have since left but just a heads up because these guys are super aggro.

During the 2012 election - 7-eleven had blue cups for Obama and red ones for Romney.
I worked for the Obama Admin at the time and we were not even allowed to bring those cups into government buildings.

SniffiVerse™ walkies Toot 
Ello frens and fans of Arwen 
Arwen is still having issues with her right hind leg, so just a short walk for us again....
There is a beautiful moon, it's nearly full now... 🌔
I rode the bike for 40 minutes at the gym. And I had ten minutes in the massage chair as well. It was needed...
My body is sore. Maybe from the garden work that I did yesterday. Maybe from the anxiety and stress caused by yesterday's events... 
I'll try to take it easy today. I need to call the vet to check if they have the meds for Arwen so I can pick up a refill.
But, maybe, my mind will need distraction and such, and it will push me into doing more garden work in the back garden. To get the anxiety out a bit... Who knows...
After walkies, I'll work on my blog a bit. I *need* to write a blog about yesterday's events. I know I wrote a longer Toot at the start of this night here, so I may end up using some of that in the blog post. I need to write about it, it's still too present in my brain...
There's so many mixed emotions cruising through me.
Fear of what happened to both my parents but also to the biker! I'm hoping with all my might that he will be able to recover...
Gratefulness for my parents to be as OK as they are now. Grateful for all the people that helped the biker and my parents. Grateful for my friends that offered me the support that I needed so badly at that time.
But also sadness... That my dad was/is responsible for this bad accident. That he injured someone so badly. But I also feel sad for feeling grateful that the biker didn't hit the front side door where my mum was sitting... I don't want to think of what would have happened then....
This will probably come to haunt me in my nightmares, and it wasn't even something I witnessed when it happened.... I hope my parents will be able to deal with this...
Anywhoo.... Let's see how I can make it through today... As I mentioned before, I'll never forget this birthday... But, not in a good way...
I'll send along my slightly edited moon snap, just to bring some brightness to this Toot...
If I'm chatting less today, and just liking or boosting, I'm just trying to cope... It doesn't mean that I don't appreciate you...

The image shows a detailed view of the Moon against a black background. The Moon is in a waxing gibbous phase, with 99.6% of its surface illuminated. The date and time displayed in the image are 12/05/2025 at 2:02. The surface of the Moon is visible with various craters and maria, which are dark, basaltic plains formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. The image has a square format with a slightly textured border, giving it a vintage appearance. The text "Waxing 🌙 gibbous 99.6%" is located in the top left corner, providing information about the Moon's phase and illumination.

The image depicts a two-story brick building with a distinctive triangular roof and a weathervane at the top. The building features white-framed windows and doors, with the ground floor having a large arched window above the entrance.

The image features two men in formal attire standing side by side, holding red documents. The man on the left is wearing a dark suit with a white shirt and a dark tie, and he is holding a red document with both hands. The man on the right is also in a dark suit with a white shirt and a dark tie, holding a similar red document in his right hand. Both men are smiling and appear to be engaged in a handshake. In the background, there is a flag with vertical stripes of blue, white, and red, and a smaller flag with a blue circle and stars, likely representing the European Union.

O homem em cinza parece estar se movendo com mais confiança, e o homem em preto o ajuda a manter o equilíbrio. A cena captura um momento de apoio e colaboração entre os indivíduos, com o homem em cinza caminhando com a ajuda do homem em preto, enquanto o terceiro homem os acompanha.

The image features the Hungarian Parliament Building, a grand and ornate structure situated along the banks of the Danube River in Budapest, Hungary. The building is characterized by its intricate Gothic Revival architecture, with a large central dome and numerous spires and turrets. The façade is predominantly white, with detailed stonework and numerous arched windows. The river in the foreground reflects the building's grandeur, and a small boat is visible on the water, adding a sense of scale to the scene. The sky is partly cloudy, with patches of blue visible, enhancing the overall picturesque quality of the image.

The image depicts a futuristic scene with multiple large spacecraft floating in a starry sky. The central spacecraft is elongated and cylindrical, with a complex structure featuring various protrusions and lights. It is surrounded by smaller, similar ships, all suspended in the air. The background is filled with numerous small, bright points of light, resembling stars or distant lights, creating a sense of depth and vastness. The scene is illuminated by a blue hue, suggesting a nighttime setting. Below the spacecraft, a flat surface is visible, possibly a landing area, with bright lights and streaks of light, indicating activity or movement. The overall atmosphere is one of a bustling spaceport or a gathering of advanced technology.

The image is a comic-style illustration with a humorous and exaggerated theme. At the top, there is a text box with the words "me after evil toilet" in a pixelated font, suggesting a humorous context. Below this, a large, bold "AAAAAAA" in a red and yellow explosion-like background conveys a scream or loud noise. The central image depicts a skeletal figure engulfed in flames, emerging from a toilet, with a swirling, fiery background. The figure is black with white eyes, and the flames are depicted in bright yellow and orange hues. The bottom left corner features the text "RAW DANG COMICS" in a distressed font, indicating the comic's publisher. The overall style is reminiscent of classic comic book art, with bold lines and vibrant colors.
