Fun fact: 262 is the lowest integer that doesn't have its own Wikipedia article.

tarot, relationships, woo, Silicon Dawn 

Me: "Hey, kiddo. I love your mom--a lot--but I'm really getting frustrated at the fact I can't seem to make much gender, social, or spiritual progress down here in NOLA. Also weed. -_- What if...? Just what if. What if something something Seattle again. I guess that's it."

Dawn: "Stick to the plan, you asshole. Here, have a Justice. It's not for you. It's for HER."

Me: "You're absolutely right. Just checking. I can't imagine bailing on your mom anyhow. Not ever. Not only is it a moral imperative... she's cute and funny and she's giving me a comic. And she's got a nice butt. Just peeking into those alternate universes we talked about last night. Thanks, Dawn, you're a good kid."

Dawn*: "No shit. And please don't talk about Mom's butt. If I was meant to think about butts, I'd contain a Seven of Butts. Or a King of Butts. Or something."

Me: "You and I both know damn well she was probably tempted. Maybe I'll badger her into finally doing the Yiffy Vixens Tarot. You want a little sister?"

Dawn*: NO GO AWAY

*I might be putting words in Dawn's "mouth" here for comedic value. n.n;

mood (--), gender 

You ever just catch a glimpse into an alternate reality portal and just... kinda avoid making eye contact with that other, happier, saner, realer you and pretend you didn't see them? Because waving, let alone reaching out to touch them, would be far more painful than you could bear?

Yeah. A dear friend of mine is celebrating one hear on HRT. And I could never harsh my genuine joy for her by saying this where she can hear it, but...

Bugger all. I hope this whole fucking timeline collapses in on itself and leaves the other one of me to live her life in peace. The last fucking thing she needs is to know about me, and how close she came to being me.

re: mh, financial, -- 

@kistaro @anthracite Have you considered adopting a small, fretful bear with a bowtie?</private_joke>

(Anthy and I have nicknamed my fretful, overly-practical side "Booboo." The Ranger doesn't like it when she forgets to pay her medical bills. -__- )

@arilin *double-takes at you for a moment, then pets the pika MUCH more carefully* =^_^;=

re: virus, chris christie, extremely mean, unapologetic rooting for loss of life 

@001zlnv That motherfucker is REAL high on my "OK, COVID-19, do at least ONE decent fucking thing for us and take him out" list. I'm already pissed enough at the virus for taking so many good people yet SPARING Boris Johnson. Fucker owes us at LEAST Christie and Pence funerals at this point. -_-

re: More predatory pika musings 

@arilin [🐯​] I may be biased as, you know, a gigantic fucking tiger, but I have bad news about the scariness of your yawn. *tiny fearless scritch*

unpalatable media 

Just started watching Uncut Gems. I think most of my friends would probably be allergic to it since among other things it's really MALE, but wow, Adam Sandler really is killing it in a dramatic role here. And I don't know how I'm going to feel about the rest of the film, but the music direction is really hitting me so far, it's all ambient and whooshy and not at all what I expected in a neo-noir.

re: subtoot (oh man I feel you on this) 

@sig (I spent all my brainmatter looking at Numberphile videos, but I am SO COMFORTED to hear I'm not the only one who feels this way. There is something rotten in Social Justice Land, and I don't want to leave, but damned if I don't feel like I'm gonna end up having to live as an outlaw here sooner or later...)

I had a lovely evening with Peggy, watching Midnight Gospel and Youtube videos about the sort of numbers that make theists out of mathematicians, and my sense of wonder has been momentarily restored. If John Conway could live with the boundless existential agony of never quite knowing why the Monster Group exists, I can deal with a little quarantine angst.

re: subtoot 

I suppose I owe people the consolation of knowing the above isn't targeted at anyone in particular, just at the general Federated Gestalt Mind, which can basically consider itself to have had a rock thrown at its moralistic callout pulpit.

I'm just tired of this place, tired of every other place, tired of my allies, tired of my enemies, and while not really tired at any of you lot as individuals, I'm just... tired. That popping sound you heard was just my fuse.

food 

I have been eating healthy shit like kale and fish all week long, and tonight I have made a judicious and civilized decision to stuff my face with cheesy Tex-Mex crap.

And drink a little horchata spiked with a lot of gin.

@typhlosion I'm afraid I'm so old I'm from the "floating silver ball and no entertainment whatsoever because all we got is Dusty's Treehouse and eight hours of Pinwheel" era of Nickelodeon. n.n; The big orange splat was after my time!

re: :cannabis: / ill probably be near jupiter or saturn. or the other way? venus and mercury? 

@joshua [🐯​] If you happen by Mars, say hi! I promise I won't let the other Martian tigers eat you! Hell, we'll save you a fish. =^_^=

Brief politics message: there is a general strike among essential service personnel starting May 1st, focusing on major outlets like Amazon, Target, and Instacart. Whenever possible until the strike demands are met, don't use these services. Respect the picket line.
