The initial monologue "THE GRID. A digital frontier. I tried to picture packets of information as they moved through the computer. Were they like BOOGERS? Were they stretchy, could you roll them up and flick them?" while popular with 10 year old test audiences, was edited to better fit the final movie

@robinhood Knuckle tattoos that say

HOUNDOF

ULSTER!

political complaint 

and y'wanna know what's practically worst thing about this needless, egregious BULLSHIT? It's that not only are the worst people in the world upsetting me while I'm drinking coffee, stitching images and listening to Louis Armstrong on a sunny day off, but my FRIENDS complaining reminded me they're fucking out there doing crap, and now I'm making YOU feel as bad as my friends just inadvertently made me feel.

“Where do you get shortbread?”
“About three shelves below the tallbread.”

It bugs me how my *actual* worries and self-doubts (for instance, any gender dysphoria) are completely buried and hard to separate out from all sorts of abuse issues, but 1) I guess that's true of everyone really and 2) if they could easily be separated out from a huge tangle I'd have resolved them years ago.

dream last night - I'm with a friend showing off these 90s vintage, West End Games Star Wars splatbooks I'd just bought, and we're looking at a fake ad for cybernetics. Black and white with 1990s awesome computer graphics of a head and a dissected hand. The text is something like "She sees his screens. He holds her hand" and I say something like "if my fingers looked like that they'd hurt more than they already do."

"Low Rider" => discovering "Up in Smoke" is free on YouTube => discovering "Point Break" is free on YouTube => discovering "Surf Nazis Must Die" is free on YouTube

I could potentially have a VERY stoned VERY SoCal themed weekend

"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!"
"My mother was a pure woman from a noble family. And, unlike some, I know who my father is."
"WAIT WAIT WAIT how did you learn our language?"

this DnD session I;

* helped defeat a bullette, pretty good for having been knocked down below 0 hp twice
* kept an unarmed, unarmored healer from getting into bullette bite range, and hauled an NPC to safety
* calmed and retrieved 2 oxen who ran away from the caravan during the resulting wildfire

Apparently at some point I became not only The AMAB Player Whose Characters are All Girls For Some Reason Can't Imagine What

but also The AMAB Player Whose Characters are All Icelandic Named Girls

So apparently I'm a Bjorkaboo or something.

@Tuftears "whole armies of grinches" oh, those would be the githyanki. :)

last night - originally I wanted to riff off the”Celtic elves” concept but I really couldn’t make the description of riastharae from the Tain work on the elf champion’s face. And in fact I’m unsure I successfully communicated it at all!

last night, since I feel things other than rage or despair sometimes.

pet play 

@Oneironott no matter what, no matter how far apart we might be, you’re a good otter.

@Kusimanse tengu or kenku depending on if you're in Pathfinder or D&D!

@Tuftears Look, walls are built either low enough that a ninja can scale them with various gimmicks (vaulting over each other, standing on sword guard etc) *or* have enough unfinished stone that it's easier to climb with gimmicks (folding hook ladder, nekode).

You wouldn't want to be rude to ninja after they spent all this time coming up with awesome gimmicks, would you?

So I double checked and a Cost of Living Raise is supposed to catch up with the Cost of Living. That's supposedly 2.5% for Seattle, so even though I'm pretty angry about it, my company's willingness to grant me only a 3% raise is basically Cost of Living.

Which then raises the question, how has the cost of living in the Seattle area *only* somehow increased by 2.5%?

last night, Japanese flavored D&D; I’ll hopefully tackle monsters next.

anyway I am *trying* to avoid the horrific negativity that I felt while cooking via listening to "Colours" by Donovan, "Scatman's World," and Dismemberment Plan's "You Are Invited."
