a band so completely soaked in weed, they don't just suck, they suck, cough frantically and giggle.

Back in my college town there was a restaurant, Tios, which had a monthly hot sauce tasting. You could try out as many hot sauces as you wanted on saltines, you'd write little reviews, and Tios would order some of the hot sauces that people really liked. They sold hot sauces by the way. Also maybe as long as you were there you'd probably want a pop to deal with the hot sauces and maybe you'd like a burrito too. And hey, now you'd remember Tios as that awesome place with the hot sauce tasting if you wanted to eat out at some point. It was a pretty good gimmick.

So one Saturday after I broke up with a girlfriend, I figured I'd go to Tios. Sampling hot sauces sounded normal and sane, a good comeback to all the stress right? Exceeeeept, I was being REALLY CHEAP so I did not get a burrito, or a pop, or anything to buffer the sheer volume of hot sauce I obsessively wolfed down in part because it was an endorphin rush. About twelve hours later a lot of pure capsicin, stress and nothing to soak it with meant I *really regretted* this decision.

Telling this story to one of the other people in the group though, their response was "I'm imagining you shoveling saltines into your mouth with tears running down your cheeks, 'more hot sauce will soothe the ache in my soul.'"

#drawings today, the remaining six classes; fighter, druid, paladin, wizard, monk, bard. Do you think I should work them up and if so, with clothes/armor/equipment or just as nude pinups?

#drawings today; just completely thrown off by multiple phone interviews. Drew every DnD class as an excuse for trying to do all sorts of bodies and faces. Barbarian, warlock, cleric, rogue, ranger, sorcerer…

And that's phone screen 3 down. I really hope I did well on this one, this would be a good one.

Okay, and here's the little crying jag from being stupid amounts of stressed. Well fuck.

phone screen 2 down. This one was a lot more arduous.

First phone screen done. Hopefully did not do too badly. I now have 30 minutes before the next phone screen.

Useless heat advice from a Georgian;

Shit. Where yall're at is now the temperature of a car hood in the middle of a strip mall parking lot, and that's in the shade, which just plain sucks. Go to some place that has AC which hasn't died yet, and hope when you come out it's magically September already.

I wish I was an alien and all the news was good

So I had this horrible thought;

The late Nichelle Nichols was a competent actress playing a competent character who was frequently downplayed. But this was during a not just a racist but a horribly *sexist* chunk of time. I think a white woman would have been expected to be a pretty chunk of scenery, but a Black woman would be expected unfairly to be a far more competent actress and expected to be okay with the idea of being a background character. Terrible shit overlapping gave us someone really cool as the only regularly appearing woman on old Trek.

apparently I have become someone who yells "I hope you get cancer and the chemotherapy doesn't work" at a certain public figure on the radio. I don't feel good about this, but then, if anyone from his party had something resembling compassion or ethics, maybe I wouldn't be have to question that one.

if you should die before me, ask if you can bring a friend?
pick a flower, hold your breath and drift away.

Two more inked #drawings, DnD characters or NPCs; kobold alchemist, derro wizard, drow ranger, tabaxi/cat folk rogue.

One furry #drawing so far today and a batch of inked furry stuff; some musicians, wolf, horse, a seal-hyena hybrid and a hybrid fox.

Everything today feels like a brisk swim in molasses.

no my pronouns ain't "baby," they're "Janet/Janets." "Miss Jackson/Miss Jacksons" if you're nasty.

IF YOU'RE ALL ALONE
LET ME SLEEP IN YOUR BED
Let me tell you something
SLEEPIN' MAKES ME FEEL GOOD
I ain't afraid of no sleep!
I ain't afraid of no bed!

#drawings today, gnoll marauders in a town, and a noble dwarf fights his manxome foe, a jabberwock!

Aaaand… homemade Tunisian pepper paste!

tonight's project is making harissa. So far I've improvised a mortar and pestle and set off the Using the Oven Alarm. This is the first time I've roasted red pepper. I think in the future, I'm gonna just buy the premade from Trader Joe's, which among other things should keep from setting off the Using the Oven Alarm.
