Bought a house in a quieter neighborhood. Apartment / condo life was destroying my mental health.

Switched to Linux and set up a Jellyfin server.

Laser eye surgery. No more glasses or contacts.

There is only one headline I’m looking for 🪦

Reaper just working his way through the octos, leveling up for the final boss fight. This one’s a doozy of a pos too

“Bad” movies. I adore low-budget films made with love and sincerity (rather than the cynical cash-grab types). Even if those movies are made to ride trends and mimic successful formulas.

“Something has to change politically in this country,” said Bos, a member of the United Auto Workers who identifies as a centrist. “Seems like it just kept getting worse and worse and worse.”

It’s you. You have to change. You won’t. You voted three times for the guy who has never taken responsibility for his own actions.

I prefer mead, Soju, or sake in that ABV range

I’d like to believe they’ll follow through. 🙄 But even best case scenario, it’s gonna take more than two years to investigate, prosecute, with the sheer volume of crimes and corruption. And even then… the damage won’t be undone in my lifetime.

Sucks to suck

The guy who keeps telling us he’s totally not ever been anti-vax

This is such a wild disconnect, it’s truly mind-blowing. Piker’s reaction is pretty much what I’d expect. We all know how far gone these people are, that they live in this weird archaic unreality bubble. They didn’t think this through, they sincerely thought this would be embarrassing for him. The right wing gerontocracy is so out of touch, its like they’re from another planet

This has been fascinating and all, and I’m glad that psychology is having a big moment and whatever, but like, I’m kind of over this whole… “watch the narcissist slowly deteriorate” thing

I’m ready for the “post-mortem on this guy’s career” phase where we all collectively wander around in a daze for a while

The Shere size

As a child, an easy listening radio station soothed me to sleep. It kept the monsters at bay. I would not unpack nor understand the psychological abuse I suffered at home for decades. The song now reminds me that a late bloomer can still be beautiful. Crushes me to death every time.

It’s the heart, afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It’s the dream, afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It’s the one who won’t be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul, afraid of dying

That never learns to live

Fun fact, the woman who wrote this song, Amanda McBroom, also played JAG Capt. Phillipa Louvois in the incredible Star Trek: TNG episode Measure of a Man

This like when the waitress comes around asking if the food is ok
