Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

@typhlosion Duchamp.

I mean, I already live in a fucking sewer, why not name myself after a toilet artist?!

@Leucrotta I've made you listen to this, right?

This might in fact be my favorite cover of all time.

@Leucrotta

hello darkness, what'cha knowin'
I've come to watch your flowers growin'
hear the Salvation Army band
doo dee doo doo
feelin' groovy

We spotted Shemp on the way home from the cafe and he was pawbing along just fine on all four feet. Must have just stubbed something. =^___^=

@Austin_Dern Shemp turned out fine, which is the important thing, and Peg and I hashed out some ideas that *might* be able to finish the comic's half-baked middle. So I can't really complain, but thank you hun! <3

@chimerror You know who needs a lot of enrichment time? Raccoons.

You know what raccoons do when they don't get that enrichment? Tear shit up.

You know who I really like? Raccoons.

Feeling pretty meh, big ball of anxiety and pessimism today, but tomorrow is my Immunity Day (vaxx + 2 wks) and I gotta admit I'm feeling pretty good about it.

Meanwhile Shemp has a limp, poor guy. :( He won't let us pick him up to have a closer look, but there's no blood trail or obvious injury, so I'm hoping it's just a little bruise or something. He and Artie have both certainly turned up in the past with limps that mysteriously disappeared in a day.

And I'm starting to seriously grapple with the possibility that my brain might just be done with Parallax, that the plot just can not be repaired to my satisfaction. It would only take one good creative jumpstart to get it going, but with life starting to go back to normal, I'm running out of excuses for why that jumpstart hasn't happened. And it's had a year and a half.

@Austin_Dern He hasn't been the same since they outlawed bellbottoms.

I DID NOT NEED TO LOOK AT TASTY THINGS

*deep breaths*

OK. OK, cat. It's OK. You live in New Orleans. It's gonna be OK.

@001zlnv I mean... are zoomer kids really into the Irish Troubles these days?! O__o

@001zlnv Yeah, you do what you can with the tools give you. It's just... so *specific* though. :O

no seriously, why do people do this

@PennyPennyPenny Four weeks. Twenty papers. That's two dollars plus tip. The enbies owe me two dollars. I want my two dollars.

@Phorm Congratulations, Agent 00🍾​. Return to base. If you are intercepted, the harem will disavow all knowledge of your brassiere size.

it tells you everything you need to know about me and my damage that, on a day where i have a full to-do list, i spent 15 minutes painstakingly ensuring i had four suitably random emoji after the champagne bottle

it also tells you something that i spent another three minutes rewriting this post because i'd originally said "the four most random possible emoji" but realized that was probably not accurate. something deep inside me didn't want to mislead you into thinking i thought i'd objectively determined this.

@Austin_Dern They do have one called "Silver Fox" but I don't trust it.

@Austin_Dern And yeah, @anthracite has had to remind me a million times that they won't put human blood on a sno-ball, not even in New Orleans. Apparently it's considered rude? And yet every single stand serves "Tiger Blood." It just strikes me as hypocritical. 🐯​
