The world may be a mess, but at least I can still amuse my girlfriend by freestyling Strong Bad's "Everybody to the Limit" over the soundtrack to her new PS4 game.

cw: sandwich 

Lunch was prosciuitto, manchego, balsamic onion jam, and mixed greens dressed with olive oil, wine vinegar, chile flakes, and Thai fish sauce, folded into lavash flatbread toasted to the consistency of a slightly tender saltine. I'm a happy kitty.

re: kulturkampf 

NTM, I think I basically last any moral authority I had over the last year. I feel like me lecturing anyone on common sense and gentleness would be like William S Burroughs lecturing anyone on anything after he shot Joan. If I blew it, everyone else might as well too, because if I was actually *trying* to be good and failed, what the fuck's left? >_<

Wanna say I miss Discordians & Zen Beatniks, but they all turned out to be misogynistic assholes with Dumb White Problems too. Really hoped my contribution to the world would to be inspire people with some way out of the trap, but... yeah, I'm all out of ideas. Parallax is a vague, blind attempt to claw at it one last time, I guess. But shit, if they managed to turn Steven Universe into a forum for orthodoxy battles, what'll they do to us?!

Fuck Terra. Fuck humans. Fuck brains.

re: kulturkampf 

Seriously, this is like the third time this week I've read a biting criticism of leftists, thought "huh, this person does actually address some valid points," then followed them back to their timeline and gone "OK HOLY FUCK YOU ARE A GENOCIDE APOLOGIST DROP DEAD."

What the fuck is it about this time and place, that we're down to just two prime memetic strains, and they're both kinda sucky and fanatical and literal-minded? :(

kulturkampf 

Every time I get really cynical about queer otherkin socialist folk, at worst I sulk around about it for a couple of days. Inevitably, I end up reading something written by the sort of people who criticize queer otherkin socialist folk, and I end up bolting back to your collective side and cowering underneath your collective skirt. Because you people can be adorable loons sometimes (as can I), but the far-right is A FUCKING NIGHTMARE. Their disdain *alone* is a reason to like you.

nostalgia; camp; pfaf-adjacent? 

This B-52s video had such a huge impact on my early sense of aesthetics and what I want to be. I think it was my very first moment of "wait, what if boys COULD dress in fancy colors and hang out with the girls?"

Kinda wish I hadn't lived in NE Ohio, so I could have actually ACTED upon that epiphany much sooner. Sest lah vee-ay.

There are some things I could find to complain about, I guess, but Peggy is being super fun today, we're out at a cafe working outdoors in the sun, work isn't hurting my brain, the comic is looking gorgeous, and this is my absolute favorite season of the year.

Yeah, I'll take this. Just gotta keep the rest of the world at bay from it for as long as possible.

So... has anyone shopped the Princess Crown around the Star Fox team yet?

Asking for a friend.

My new boss (former boss-in-law) called me "amazing." It's so weird to feel competent. ^____^

i'm about to do something very cruel to some very good people (cw: dangerously pretty fox)

You can see her. But you'll never get to pet her.

I went to cuss at an OSX process that wasn't doing what I wanted, and it came out as... "GO EAT SOMETHING!"

I think my legendary ferocity may be waning.

extremely silly 

T-shirt concept:

A (live) anthropomorphic dog inside of an elevator shaft a la Die Hard, soaking wet and sad-looking, wearing a Santa hat and a big dog-shaming sign that says:

"NOW I HAVE A SPRAY BOTTLE TOO
MEOW MEOW MEOW"

catting it up (kinstuff) 

Today's activity:
* bit @anthracite (friendly-like)
* stalked, menaced, and killed some data errors
* stole anthracite's property (bong)
* ingested vast quantity of catnip
* hid in a box and took an extended nap
* trapped and tormented more data errors
* annoyed anthracite
* took another nap in a different box
* looked disdainfully upon some Reddit humans
* bathed self
* ate bowl of tinned mackerel

I definitely joined the right team. I'm proud to be a part of it. 🐯​

magickhxqz; reddit 

Was a bit proud of this exchange. It addresses important things the Armchair Rationalist crowd misses about brain management IMO.

Context: we were talking about Figure 1, the "immunity dog" meme. Orange had called the meme "lawful evil," and someone responded with "If it saves some from subconsciously worrying... doesn't the end justify the means?" Orange didn't like that idea, and I (Blue) tried to explain to 'em why a "magic feather" needn't be "real" to be a positive thing.

nostalgia 

Just came across this at random. This is PRIME nostalgia for me. Lily Tomlin doing an old blues number with Howard Shore on early SNL.

I just can't stop grinning at this panel of Noa telling Kurt something's just not happening.
