I had to rehome my flock.

Sad day. I had to rehome my flock. I was down to fewer than 15 chickens total, but living in this house is no longer sustainable for me. I don’t expect to be here a lot longer. I put out…

Me, with glasses and a beard standing indoors, in front of a black shelving unit filled with books, action figures, small sculptures, and knick-knacks. A framed photograph of my dad wearing a black shirt and hat is visible on the shelf. The words "Woman's Gowns" appear on a dark binder, and various collectible figures, such as a "Gizmo" from Gremlins and a small toy van, are displayed. A framed landscape photograph featuring a sunset is hung on the wall to the right.
