The combination of the past few days of stress, agreeing to see parents tomorrow, probably going into a stressy week next week, and feeling really upset at something on Telegram convinced me that this might be a good time to have half an edible.

Wearing my poncho, since for some reason I find that very reassuring. And listening to Neil Young's music for Dead Man. Probably swap out to Zeppelin and IM at some point though.

lost as I may be
in the fog of my own noise and triviality
Grand Holy Mother, grant me clarity
I am standing on the edge of forever
forever.

Drew for the first time in days. Horse archers face orcs (I picture this guy as a chieftain, about to go down defiantly) and a drow fireteam (fighter, drider spellcaster, cleric). Despite the mushroom architecture I wasn’t actually listening to Infected Mushroom. #drawings

it's wild how the original version of "Of Wolf and Man" is all Ron Spencer spray of viscera when will you Rage, and the Goodnight Texas cover literally makes me tear up.

* listening to the Van Helsing soundtrack again
* which understandably reminds me of The Mummy Returns soundtrack
* best part of The Mummy Returns is the evil army, watches evil army parts
* suddenly wants smokes, tea, and date mahmoul

But twink death need not be final. Should the twink prepare a phylactery beforehand - for instance a pair of particularly short shorts - upon his 30th birthday he will rise once more as a twink lich, unable to be turned by normal clerics.

where is the horse and the rider?
where is the horn that was blowing?
where is the helm and the hauberk and the bright hair flowing?
they have passed like rain in the mountains
like wind in the meadow.
the days have gone down the west
behind the hills into shadow.

How did it come to this?

another WoD sounding track, to me. A group of Garou (or similar) hunt down and kill something, then perform a ritual in the latter half.

I always thought this sounded like how it feels to finally come out of a major depressive downswing.

The “do not tear up in Safeway because ‘Dreams’ is on the speakers” Challenge

Phone screen done, in person done. Took the opportunity to get to Fuji Bakery, the best sugar doughnuts/malasadas in Seattle (though Donut Factory’s pretty good).

apparently my post-phone-screen-brain goes from "Adam West" to the reggae version of the Batman theme tune and from there to "One Step Beyond." Alternate-Universe-Jon *did* get to grow up in grimy horrible northern England listening to stuff like this or something.

Okay, vivid dreams that were something like a mix of therian meetup with The Northman, so maybe let's *not* listen to Heilung late at night on high-anxiety nights in the future eh?

Need to remember that the big reason to be positive on social media isn’t that I’m a nice person, quite the contrary. It’s that frankly the people I want to respond to in anger are incapable of understanding anything other than violence which sadly cannot be granted them, but if I say something positive to someone, those are people who CAN listen.

it's seeing the aftermath of wildlife hunting contests

it's the same thing as looking at photos of concentration camps and lynchings and the ghost dancers lying in the snow banks. same damn thing. Same damn thought process motivates it.

and I wish there were a way to HURT these creatures RIGHT BACK in any sort of meaningful way that would get them to FUCKING STOP, but there isn't. All you can do is watch the casualties mount up and be glad it's only sometimes it's an Asian or a Black or a Queer or a Jew or a protester instead of dozens of coyotes or whatever
