Monday’s sure been Mondaying.

anxiety went through the roof for no reason I can figure out. Occasionally sudden drops in temperature or pressure changes will do that, or returning from weekend set things off, something. Definitely a "cup of coffee will calm me down" morning.

trying to remember my ideals are about being kind rather than being right; that's worth stepping past my bitter lived experience and emotional backlash, and requires giving the benefit of the doubt to a lot of people. If only hurtful intent caused harm, the world would be a less painful place.

NIN original: I need to get laaaaid if you don't cane me all my dreams are deaaaad

Clan of Xymox cover: I spend a blood point and use it to power my four dots in Protean

somehow I'd never listened to the rest of the Clan of Xymox album with the cover of my favorite Cure song

holy crap this is awesome

The full con (or in this case party) cycle where BEFORE I worry I mess up everything and won’t be wanted and shouldn’t go, and then I go and have a great time and I have to LEAVE and go back to normal life and I MISS everyone and now I want to cry.

#drawing today!

For the longest time I thought “Turning Japanese” was about anime and since that wasn’t very well known in the 80s that’s kinda weird. Especially thanks to the line “everyone regards me as a psyched Lone Ranger” which I parsed as “cyclone ranger,” some sort of tokusatsu reference.

@obscurestar I introduced some 20somethings to Astrix as my good aging raver deed of the day!

Banished to the Clown Village on the Welsh shoreline to extract clown information

Sabertooth vs Wolverine, the low cost SFX version in @erin_kitsune’s kitchen.

Misheard “winter festival” as “wiener festival,” and was really stoked for a few beautiful moments about trying out all sorts of hot dogs.

I remember things like Twitter, ArtStation, and DeviantArt being usable, and for some reason all these feel about as far back in the past as living in Alameda.

a mere decade ago, I'd need to eat a chorizo burrito with a couple of large strawberry margaritas to get acid reflux this bad, and I miss both being younger and access to a Mexican place as nice as Otaez (Otaez was really nice. Apparently it closed and has been replaced by ultra expensive stuff).

I SAW A RICH MAN'S HEARTH
WITH A COLD CORPSE OUTSIDE THE DOOR
IT'S BETTER TO BE ALIVE
THE LIVING CAN KEEP A COW

NEVER GO ABROAD FROM HOME
AHEAD OF YOUR SWORD AND YOUR AXE
YOU CAN'T FORTELL A FIGHT
NOR FEEL A BATTLE IN YOUR BONES

"Marche" from the Nutcracker Suite reminds me again, that I'm still pissed off that the Mystery Men did NOT leap on Ballerina Man during their superhero audition. That dude would have kicked so much ass and we all know it.

we're back to don't tell my allies to fuck themselves

Just one #drawing tonight!

Down down to goblin town
Down down to goblin town
Down down to goblin town
You go, my lad!
Ho ho, my lad!
Goblins riff and goblins yiff
Goblins love to split a spliff
