Year I started owning that whatever I am, it sure as heck ain't cis.

Year I started the process of getting well overdue ink committed to my skin.

Year so much shit went sour and so much stuff went right.

Here's to slightly less sour, slightly more right.

Here's to another year not going as planned at all in all the good ways.

What a god damned year it's been. So much bad. But so much good, too.

Year we moved for hopefully the last time, into our hopefully forever home.

Year I started wearing kilts, because I can.

Year I made it as high up in my career as I'm likely to get.

Year I reconnected with people and a creative pursuit that had meant so, so much, and made new friends on the way.

What the fuck just happened.

Dear Metroid Dread, your controls are nowhere NEAR tight enough for you to afford this kind of vanishing platform bullcrap.

Random elderly Irish dude at Woodie's, watching the purchases in my arms: "So how ye planning on loading the bird seed on the mouse trap?"

Me, fluent in Irish: "Carefully. :)"

Wanted: a button I could press like "I am just done playing this game but I'd like to know what happens next" and then it goes into automated narrative mode till the end.

Centaurworld is by far the best show with fart-related plot points.

@LionsPhil Even later on, as I remember, Windows interrupts were not reentrant until Windows 2000. Fun times.

@LionsPhil Nah, it's just a subtoot to Anne Rice's passing. She notoriously had a bee in her bonnet, to put it kindly, about fanfics of her works, and litigated every single one she could find off the Internet, even though her works are some of the most fanficable stuff ever written.

On the plus side, imagine the galore of overdue vampire fanfics that's just about to roll in.

Interesting mystery for music experts: who the heck wrote and sung this English cover of @shellerwilliam@twitter.com 's 1991 song Un Homme Heureux?

You wouldn't right-click a car.

@zebratron2084 Ooof. Warm hugs but not too tight, I don't want your eyes popping out onto my shoulders or however mammals do those things. c..c Please don't look at me directly while not wearing your visor once you have the laser eyes on, thank you. ♥

@zebratron2084 ........ And now I feel weird because as far as I'm concerned, you're that car's driver.

"But, doctor, I am car driver Paggliacci" I suppose.
