“You have my sword.”
“And my bow.”
“And MY constant dwarfsplaining!”

“You have my sword.”
“And my bow.”
“And MY Bad Dragon ‘Altenauro, Chief-Warg, in Realistic Red’ with extra cum lube... what?”

Ah yes the part of Peter Jackson’s FotR where, as a rebound relationship from Gandalf, Saruman literally makes himself a new not terribly bright but really muscly boyfriend.

Time passed in the Shire much as it had before, and incidents of arson and muggings were usually overstated to dissuade the tourists.

The self hate sure is starting early this morning, I ain’t even had coffee.

gotta say talking to customer and figuring out where to go in Google Drive to get at these reference documents is kinda the most useful bout of acid reflux/insomnia I've had recently.

uspol, media, narrative, angry 

So a lot of people call out the lack of accurate "terrorism" semantics as racist, and yeah, that's *true*, but also;

I feel like our media has decided on which premade narrative to use. This isn't the Scary Outsiders Threatening Us narrative, it's the How Could Such A Nice Normal Person Do This narrative.

What's actually going on now doesn't count, 'cause they've decided to make it the trope someone decided sold best back in the 90s.

@Jssra has had me thinking about eating duck for weeks now and I’m seriously pondering spending money on eating half a duck later.

But I probably need to crank dishes first. And I have to get home. And I kinda want to shave head hair and go image diving for Paul Felix pictures to save for later analysis. And I want to draw, independent of all the art I need to do to learn or for customers. Seriously if I could afford to keep going on part time work I’d do it.

Snoozy. Does not help that the AC just now started working in here this afternoon. 45 minutes and I can go sleep on the bus hopefully.

representation, bombing/uspol mention 

Especially in light of the bombings in Austin, police murders and the ongoing assault launched by DeVos, I really want more... WYSIWYG? Black representation. Not noble victims, certainly not negative stereotypes, just people who happen to be Black doing whatever interests them. I know how much it sucks to be from people only acknowledged as noble victims, villains, and comic relief; I want a healthier, fairer atmosphere for my friends and fellow netizens.

brief lewd mention 

In no real order I’d like to;
1) make a comic
2) have someone put me naked on my back and touch everything from below my navel to the top of my ass-crack
3) wander around a forest
4) hug a cat and kiss them atop their tiny cat noggin

Nothing like some Type O Neg to make you think “man today would be better spent hanging out in a graveyard/smoking cloves or a coffee shop/reading Alice Miller or something.

Hot take;

It’s incredibly human to want to make giant crossover events. The Infinity War, the Argonauts, the Wacky Races, etc.

But actually it isn’t. Herakles/X-Men/Scooby Doo/Judge Dredd/etc are way awesomer largely off on their own doing Herakles/X-Men/Scooby Doo/Judge Dredd stuff with *maybe* also Atalanta/Inhumans/Predators/etc.

Make too much of a big hero rumble and it’s like having too much enchilada sauce on your fried kimchi and potato perogies with extra baba ganouj and cheese.

tonight's anxiety spike is going away, leaving the urge to stay up for half of forever as that's more appealing than anything likely to happen at work later.

A tangled mess of "well, why would I want to make myself sleep and be merely unhappy instead of completely miserable, since it's been demonstrated I can be made completely miserable regardless of starting mood," familiar from my old job.

Of course that I'm actually bone tired pushes things towards eh, go sleep.

@anthracite whoa look at this glorious thing

despite the recognizably 2001ish chunks of comic I've seen reproduced elsewhere, the covers suggest a glorious attempt to recast the movie's Asimovian intellectual coolness.

trying to remember; being who I am, what I am, is okay. I make mistakes but am not innately an incompetent fuckup. My friends value me.

It's hard to remember this even with all of the good things people have said. I hope it's okay that it's hard for me to remember.

I don't feel terrible or even bad, right now.

song lyrics 

where do bad folk go when they DAH
they don't go to heaven where th' angels FLAH
go to a lake of fahr an FRAH
see 'em again till the fourth of JULY
