how is it I keep forgetting how much I absolutely love "Doing the Unstuck"?

The expected mood crash listening to "It's All Too Much," missing stuff which lost in TIME as well as space. I could go back to A^2 and I know entirely too well it couldn't be the same magical place I knew when I was a college student and the world seemed infinite for the first time ever.

#drawings today, including I finally drew an uvuudaum for a friend who’s been having an unusually shit time lately.

gah, TDOR not TDOV. I apologize for being so completely dogbrained right now.

made summer salad and had a few cucumbers left over so made Szechuan cucumbers for this TDOV thing. Made fried tomato and egg to use up the last of the tomatoes, as dinner.

The TDOV thing are other Jews, so in case someone keeps kosher, I'm prepping pork *last*, gonna put that up to marinate and call it a night.

talked to my Dad and things are NOT good. Since I can't stay until who-knows-when tomorrow or Sunday evening, I'm not headed over there before Thursday which tbh is a relief.

I'm trying not to think of this drug test as taking time out of my life to violate my boundaries for a potential job, but instead if this helps me get the job, I just got to whizz for money.

guess who's awake with anxiety

Okay apparently my foul mood translated to nostalgia for when TTRPGS were Dark™️ and Edgy™️©️

I really REALLY loathe this one person talking about their AI "art" on Tapestries MU*. Look, I go to the plaza to idly be around conversations and maybe look at otter girl text descriptions and stuff, not so I can listen to something low-key offensive.

it helps to tense all the muscles in your neck and shoulders while singing along to Henry Rollins' "Liar"

"You aren't half as good a liar as this guy, Beavis!"

Test, can I post from my phone?

Okay, question; if you're using Mastodon on your phone, what client do you recommend? I WAS using Amaroq and then my copy conked out.

I've put in several phone calls to both senators to oppose KOSA previously, but two more calls can''t hurt, so I left messages again. Problem, one of the two senators is or was one of the act's more enthusiastic backers.

"I'm not feeling depressed today," they said, having sat on their ass in front of the laptop instead of showering for a fucking hour after shaving, brushing teeth and finding clothes to wear outside.

New analogy I like about ML as a tool.

Suppose you stole a screwdriver from a plumber. Yes, you could potentially fix a sink (if you removed the trap to clean it), but you can't fix a sink by jamming the screwdriver in the drain, rattling it around for a bit, and proclaiming you're a plumber.

man I really wish The Hu covered more Metallica than just one song

IN HIS LANDS HIS HONOUR INCREASED
BUT TO HIM AND HIS FOES HE'S ONLY A BEAST
HE WAS
SKULL SEEKER!
HE WAS
SKULL SEEKER!
TAKING YOUR LIFE!

lest you think I only obsess about dinosaurs the lyrics to Basil Poledouris' "Riders of Doom" include "Uh-oh! uh-oh! BAD GUYS!" "Cold, cold, it's fucking cold! It's really cold out here!"

anyone ever do that thing where you invent lyrics to instrumental music?

F'rex "Mystic Circles of the Young Girls" in Rite of Spring includes "I, Archaeopterix, pretty bird! Who's a pretty bird? I'm a pretty bird!" and "Strutho, strutho, struthomimas" and "I am Lambeosaurus! I am Lambeosaurus!" for obvious reasons.

oh wow check out this really awesome cover of my favorite Cure song!
