I plan to run against Cindy Hyde Smith down here in Mississippi next year. Somebody has to step up. Why not me?

every weekend for me in the early 2000's 🫑

Mr. Potatoes is ready for a cuddly weekend. He had a stroke 5 years ago which caused him to have mobility issues with half his body and blindness in one eye, but he loves a lap. 😻

hey world... american double organ donor here looking for a new home country. I can manage huge construction projects and/or mentor your potential living organ donors. Warm weather is a plus, but not a deal breaker. just can't be a nazi country. πŸ€—

new pale blue dot image from the edge of Saturn by the Cassini probe. A tiny sliver of that dot has a wannabe momentary master of other humans. Carl Sagan's message is as profound now as it was back then.

I am trying to get something very similar set up for dialysis patients and I would love to do it fulltime. Thanks for sharing this idea, Mark. 🫑

got my outfit planned for the Kentucky Derby Marathon in April. swag level 11 outta 10 πŸ€—

I took 3 days off this week from severe burnout. I basically just sat in a recliner hugging a panther the whole time. 10/10 would recommend.

5 a.m. chow time 🫑

It is incredible that I, a dude who builds hospitals, but has only rudimentary medical knowledge, is VASTLY more qualified than RFK to run HHS.

Science will eventually determine that love was always a quantifiable wavelength, as elusive as dark matter and as obvious as gravity.

My very first thought that I can remember thinking was... "this is my last time here" It took me almost 40 years to understand the significance. It was my agreement I made before I lived this life. It is why I live as fearless and free as possible. true empathy was always the goal. always is.

make room for me brother 😩

Sleepy siblings 😻😻 Sassy and Mr. Potatoes

"things don't change until things change" I got off my ass and applied to 5 positions this week in totally different fields than my current career. I have 3 interviews already lined up. I have to feel like I am doing something that matters in a positive way to others' lives.

Told AI to make a pic of cats living their best life.... hard to argue with the results 😻

Sometime recently, after I had checked off every bucket list item for my life, I became completely content with no longer chasing after anything. Each day is its own with very little concern for tomorrow. I may stay in this mindset for a while longer, maybe even the rest of my physical life. 😌

I am generally against any human becoming a billionaire, but there are rare exceptions that give me hope... Mark Cuban @mcuban.bsky.social and Mckenzie Scott. These 2 have used their wealth to build incredible projects for humanity as a whole 🫑

short 🧡.... My advice to other loving souls in the USA as someone who is very liberal in Mississippi: 1. the existential underlying dread should NOT be your default emotion 2. do at least ONE thing that makes you happy every fucking day. 3. Disconnect from ALL social media on the weekends .....

For those that may need it, I plan to start driving people in Northeast Mississippi & Northwest Alabama to/from dialysis appts. Federal funding freezes are already disrupting non-profit places that have offered this service. DM me. yes, I'm real and my name is John Maxcy. I just want to help.

oh shit🫨🫨 we are getting shirtless running weather this weekend down in the Sip. 🌞

On this date in 1969, the Beatles gave their last live performance by doing an unannounced concert from the rooftop of their studio. 🫑

my wife has been out of town for a couple of days and I have survived on PB&Js, cheese and crackers, and applesauce. my brain still thinks I am 10 years old when I am home alone. πŸ€—

Squirt is pissed off because i stayed at the gym late tonight πŸ™€

Starting to get pretty worried that Trump's federal grant freeze is going to stall out living organ donation since 90% of us relied on NLDAC financial grants to be able to afford the travel and time off work. Fuck this stupid motherfucker and every dumb chucklefuck that voted for him.
