Last, here’s Orlando the used bookstore cat in a perfectly sized box.

Here are more photos from Olympia. A couple of murals downtown, from a Japanese sister city and for a record store; an older doorway; and a shrimp sculpture made from metal utensils, bicycle chain etc.

I was way happier yesterday so trying to remember that, here are some buildings in downtown Olympia.

So my landlords now think that I agreed to a month to month lease. I emailed and left voice mail. What else can I do?

Today’s used bookstore haul was profoundly lucky and didn’t run me that much!

again, if you're rich, you don't actually have to be particularly intelligent and you only have to be semi-personable, because money buys you brilliant engineers, savvy accountants, and profoundly charismatic marketers. All of who get you more money.

this is on a bad collision course for how the richest people sure seem to be toddlers emotionally.

"nobody knows what lies beneath New York City" look, I watched Hellboy over a dozen times now, I even watched the sequel twice, and played OWoD, there are layers of catacombs and long forgotten antechambers which are somehow also easily accessible from the subway tunnels.

I really want there to be a movie in which Hugh Jackman plays Lord Greystoke so that it can be introduced "I, Tarzan (Hugh Jackman)"

... preferably based on the really weird later stories with Opar and Jad-bal-ja and crap like that.

how many times do I instinctively try to light up while listening to John Lee Hooker and now Hendrix?

look, why would I care about anything about the new 33 year old Wunderkind CEO of Chain I Don't Go To? Tell me about horseshoe crabs or pycnogonids, I have more in common with them and find them far more interesting.

#drawings from last night and today; wemic bard and human paladin (trying to do more unusual full armor), and a ganzi adventurer (linked to primordial chaos in Pathfinder) takes on an evil dwarf sorcerer and his demon back-up!

It’s kinda incredible that The Avengers are basically;

“I engineered a generator to keep shrapnel from piercing my heart and since that worked I figured I’d throw in flying powered armor.” “I’m a literal Norse god.” “I’m a technologically advanced android.” “I’m an extremely pissed off child abuse survivor.” “I’m literally the best archer.”

Then we get into how everyone drifts through the Avengers like “I fight evil with being short, hairy and Canadian but not polite BRAAAAP.”

I checked but nobody has yet made a fanvid of The Northman with "Berserker" by "Love Among Freaks"

#drawing today, an ettercap or some other variety of spider monster is poised to drop on an unsuspecting adventurer deep below the surface.

finding a Ted talk by a Xiaolin monk with added "enlightened" music got me to "Boot to the Head," and King Missile's "Meditation is Boring," and I started sitting correctly before thinking, if I'm doing that, I could listen to the Hannya Shingyo and actually meditate, so I did.

listenin' to "Boot to the Head" in horse stance, having a normal one

together they sing the aria “Ich Wünsche Das Ich Ein Oskar-Meyer-Wurst Wahre”

Subtoot/hot take; money *can* buy you happiness because money is protection in this society, and gets you experiences (Stuff isn’t experiences, but some experiences require Stuff). At some point money doesn’t; travel, good meals, medical care, a good home, maybe your own boat, etc is basically the same whether you’re making a 6 or 9 digit salary. I suspect being poor is similar (there’s only so much better off you really are) and it’s actually a bell curve.
