depression, sexuality mentioned 

Tonight took an unexpected turn for the very difficult. Masturbating got some emotional distance, but there's only so much you can fap away stuff that really pushes your buttons that hard, so this is still getting under my skin.

I should sleep and try to remember the world's bigger than this.

somehow I'd forgotten how hilarious the soundtrack is for Battle Beyond the Stars.

and now listening to the awesome part of Wolfen's soundtrack, and baring my teeth and growling at the appropriate points.

Apparently Wednesday is FEMA’s proposed cutoff date for food and water aid to Puerto Rico.

I called my Senators and left messages to fight this and extend further aid.

Honestly I feel like the way to affect actual change involves throwing heavy objects, probably on fire, but I’m too much of a Boy Scout for that. I can only assume I’ll die in a camp, from a pig, in a hate crime, or from the effects of anthropogenic climate change, still dutifully voting and calling my Congresswomen.

crass joke 

Ahead in the distance lay the many paired minarets of the fabled City of Bras, wherein could the traveler find one that actually fit and which didn’t have the underwire cutting into you.

One thing I remember was really cool in ERB’s original Tarzan stories (these are hugely problematic);

Tarzan is exceptionally smart. When he finds the home his biological parents built, it’s full of books intended for their kid (he never knew them, so he’s sure he’s an ape well into adulthood). So he teaches himself English but with arbitrarily chosen/ape phonemes- he can figure out what’s repeating vowels etc but his version sounds nothing like English.

ethnic, stuff on hellbird, why I am not on hellbird rn 

Me on Mastodon; wow what a slow day, think I’ll express how much I wanna fap, read about Carolingian stuff, or paint. S’cool?

Me on hellbird; violence is the only argument an antisemite is capable of understanding. Am Yisrael Chai, assholes, I plan to take several of you out before you kill me.

Once again I was suddenly wide awake. I'm relaxing back towards sleep, now, but was seriously beating myself up about art stuff and where, as it turns out, that delves right into my baggage. And feeling completely out of place on this one Slack.

Wanting to skip work just because I don't want to be at work, not because it's terrible or I desperately want to go somewhere specific or anything.

dental 

so I broke a molar a while back, and got a temporary crown today and then went to work, and I'd like to think I was a good patient while they were filing down bits of tooth to mount that crown. So my jaw is all sore and I'm all paranoid about the crown coming off.

and I didn't do everything I wanted to do today but I did a little studying and drawing, at least.

You know the first Foo Fighters album? That's not *them*. That's *him*. The album started as Dave Grohl's demo tape as something he was doing to try to recover from Kudt's death, so actually getting a band together came later, all the instruments, vocals and mixing on Foo Fighters is Dave Grohl.

I was gonna spew hate based on what's going on with the State of the Union address, but I basically think Republicans will make bank by the time anyone can mobilize to clean up their fucking mess, and then they'll use how difficult cleanup is to villify anyone doing it. It really feels hopeless.

CW for fantasy violence. from today (the gnolls) and from Wednesday but tightened today (displacement leopards; the barbarian’s trusty Bracers of the Minotaur helps him wield his plundered giant sword).

Hot take; the best pieces of Chex mix are those little pumpernickel bread looking things.

As long as I’m going more personal; last night someone who saw photos of me said something immensely flattering, though it’s personal enough I won’t blurt it out publicly.

Hey a Mastodon seal name policy? I already have a sealsona!

Pinnisona?

Phocona? (Or otariisona, but my character’s a harbor seal.)

.gif the year you were born;
* crinoid armed barrel bodied “elder things” load stone on the backs of dinosaurs
* a great war is fought with the octopus-headed beings living in the Pacific
* great alien vistas formed of cyclopean ruins open up to reveal something I cannot, and MUST NOT recall
* alien high pitched piping; “tekeli-li”

This is more specific to me, as I’m getting lunch! But it turns out Happy Donut in the financial district, isn’t just a doughnut shop. They have a really great selection of noodles and their prices are incredible for this part of San Francisco. Definitely a favorite place!

It’s currently thought that a lot of East Asian dragon legends aren’t just remotely about “dragon bones;” now that more sauropod remains are coming out of China, they are *really* long necked compared to N America sauropods.
