yes I know

we kill small children <strike>to make matzoh</strike>

I've heard it before.

whoops.

That's not a friend, I guess.

also, it's not only Crow-soundtrack-listening-season here in Seattle, it's Bladerunner-soundtrack-listening-season

chummer

I might have an overnight guest this weekend, and I suck at housekeeping, so I figured before I ran out of spoons I'd do some cleaning.

I cleaned the toilet, tub, sink/counter in the bathroom, the stovetop and microwave in the kitchen, got rid of some fridge fossils, took out trash, and made a pot of kinda dilute curry.

This is not exactly "Beowulf LET Breca beat him in swimming the Baltic because he was busy trashing sea monsters" bragging but it's something.

Short rant: I know what side I’m required to/supposed to take, I know what side I’m biased towards, and I also DON’T want to take sides. Dead, traumatized or unhoused aren’t national or ethnic identities. I’m sure someone will tell me I’m the oppressor for my desired neutrality here. How about maybe I’m not a fan of war if any larger than 1/36th scale or outside historical reenactment?

I keep having to remind myself that SW means sex workers and not Star Wars and I was real confused for a while.

<Luke>I just wanna go home and masturbate and get high and read whatever I can find about Mawangdui </Luke>

Admittedly not all at the same time, that’s disturbing.

Oh man between dreams about needing to pee and getting up to pee (and drink water. Maybe there’s a connection) my kidneys are in GREAT shape this morning.

@amaranth@weirder.earth had asked about werewolves yesterday. I have this theory that most shapechanger stories solve towards canines, since we're looking for animals that might scavenge close to human habitation and get spotted - foxes, wolves, coyotes, though hyenas and even (if you're at sea enough) sharks. In the preindustrial world, in the dim light between houses, you can't be sure if the animal you see out there in the dark is your neighbor.

Managed to make myself draw today. #drawings

About the situation I don't usually feel comfortable talking about;

I'd gotten the impression that because I support a "two state solution" that makes me incredibly right leaning by comparison to what's usually very left leaning politics. I think I should be up front about this and if people want to block me, at least that way I'm being honest.

another Jew says "look, this is shit, I don't support it, I hate it" look we're Jews we're NOT gonna agree with each other necessarily and also a fairly important part here is that this is shit, I don't support it, I hate it

an Arab goes off and that is fucking 300% understandable, I get it, this is shit,

a nice American leftist with no fucking personal connection to this says Free Palestine etc and all I hear is yet another gentile screaming kill the yids

ANYWAY

since I would like to talk about or project anything other than completely unproductive anger

what would you LIKE me to talk about, or would you like me to post some artwork?

holy fuck

this is the best track on the album but it's unusually good right now

oh sunshine
your loving beauty passed me by
should I waste my time
in your valley beneath the sky
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
I am home!
you move your own mountain
the trees have grown
the trees have grown

now it's over
now it's over and I'm goin' home
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
I am home!

oh honey you know that you can (and will) lick my doo
oh honey you know that you can (and will) lick my big fat doo
aright

wow this next Queens of the Stone Age track I tried out is either the blandest variety of heterosexual relationship whining *or* it's about having a major dissociative episode connected to child emotional abuse

I can't tell which. Time for something lighter like Stravinsky

okay pause on Stravinsky so I can listen to Queens of the Stone Age "If I Had A Tail"

HOLY SHIT THE BASS oh wow why didn't I notice this little flourish

especially cause we're almost at the best bits of Rite of Spring

The Best Bits of Rite of Spring:

* stands digitigrade, tucks arms in against chest with two fingers out on each hand, stomps around as much as possible after hours

look I wouldn't be wobbly if I had a tail!

damnit it's too late in the evening to do stompy dances to Sacre du Printemps while stoned, while wearing nothing but a fursuit head (look it seemed appropriate for Rite of Spring)

I don't want to be rude to my neighbors
