the urge to leave quotes from the Havamal or Voluspa in all caps on the Thirteenth Warrior soundtrack on YouTube

@topaz Apparently there was one which isn't showing up anymore?

The Lost Mines of Phanserviss!

No-one knows what sinister things the scantily-clad drow, slickly slime-draped illithids and muscle-gut gnolls might be planning down there, but it's gotta be PRETTY DAMN SINISTER. Perhaps they're planning to summon SOMETHING HOT.

@robinhood I mean what's weird about carrying an anvil, like maybe they're trying to squash a roadrunner?

LONG AGO

IT WAS ANCIENT GREECE

MYTHIC LAND OF NO PANTS

It’s not that I’m bored with superheroes, it’s that comics with superheroes are always better than movies with superheroes.

Maybe progress. Job hunting did not make me think about killing myself this morning, it merely made me feel angry and scared.

it's not good per se, but it is reassuring (this couldn't be my failure in any way) to get an "after careful consideration we decided to go with other candidates" email about an hour or two after I apply for the job.

HOT TAKE: if you'd never been exposed to Star Trek and therefore only seen photos of Leonard Nimoy without Spock's distinctive ears and haircut, you would parse him as either a tech CEO or possibly a Nick Cave/Johnny Cash style musician

AD: at Amica insurance, we know this isn't a house. we know...

ME: In fact we'll tell you reasons why it isn't, right when you need to pay for something.

@frang sheaths or ferrets?

AD: "Did you know the same API which can do this can do this? And... this? And... this?"

ME: "AND EVEN THIS! I'M AN ADUUUUUUUULT!"

added kochujang directly into the fried rice while cooking it, why NOT really?

I just got past a crapton of childhood programming to avoid people and wallow in self hate because damnit I had mead and wanted to draw?

@frost thanks and yeah, it’s been very close sometimes.

@bluestarultor thank you!

I think largely independent of everything else going on. I honestly just want reassurance that given everything I had in my childhood I am actually doing relatively OK to be single childless with no career poor with the college degree that never went anywhere.

Imagine as many annoying bumper stickers and t shirts as right wingers have about guns, flags, and morality but about weird hyper fixations
