Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

*waits until you get up close and nips you* <3

i warned ya 🐯​

Never been so disappointed by a headline in all my life.

Dude. My day job finally confirmed that we each have eight hours of paid volunteer time coming. Can anyone recommend a good charity in the area, especially one that suits my personality and putative skills? n.n; No sense in letting them to go waste...

Despite a lovely visit to friends in Shoreline, one half of the Parallax script finally put to bed, and the rich sense of accomplishment that comes with successfully feeding a fussy dragoness, I've got a melancholy that just won't go away.

Maybe if I get really stoned and spend the rest of the night playing Enter the Gungeon I can at least transmute some of it to frustration. Regardless, the worlds and especially my immediate world feels very high-entropy tonight.

Okay, either the Café gods are real or someone from Bauhaus is on awoo.space, 'cause they finally switched out the depressing folk for Mac DeMarco, and this is much more my speed.

Okay, Bauhaus Cafe, I was willing to sit here patiently and not take all the sadcore on the PA system personally, but the Velvet Underground and Nico?! That's just not funny. My feelings are valid too, you know.

"[T]o carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -- CS Lewis

That's what I thought, you astroturfing scumbags. Knew it the moment I saw your disingenuous little commercial.

Guess I'm voting Yes on 1631.

I still hope we're going to meet again in the Supercontext, like Grant Morrison promised.

I always loved how TV shows like Danger 5 and Strangers With Candy would end with a big dance number or cocktail party during the closing credits. They'd have the entire cast there, in character, regardless of who was living or dead, friend or foe, just having a big party.

Maybe the afterlife will be like that.

Maybe if it is, I'll skip the party and hang out on the Cosmic Porch anyway.

what the fuck am i doing up at 7 am

why have i already done a full hour of work

why on earth would a tiger even have a morning, none of my food is awake yet

what the fuck is happening to me

God, my emotions are supercharged today for some reason. Maybe it's the caffeine, but I've been from a 1 to 10 and everything in between, and back, several times today. If it keeps up, maybe I'll mention it when I see my doctor, but... cripes, I think today's just been a bit of a roller coaster. At least I'm getting a huge amount of work done.

“I think you should kill him and eat his brain," Mr. Frostee said quickly.

"That's not the answer to every problem in interpersonal relations," Cobb said, hopping out.

Today's #moodsnapshot is simmering right there in my slow cooker:

four cans of fiery chipotles, a lot of fermented things, and a can of hominy

fierce and complicated, yet kinda corny, just like me

I do, on the other hand, think we should round up alt-righties by the hundreds of thousands, force them into cinemas to watch this film Ludovico-style, and then feed them each a cookie and let (what's left of) them go home.

REINFORCEMENT: THIS IS AN IMPORTANT PIECE OF FILM BUT ABSOLUTELY YOU SHOULD NOT WATCH IT IF YOU ARE ALREADY DEPRESSED OR DESPAIRING.

I realize this will probably rule out a good half of us. :( Me, I'm having a pretty good day and am finding myself in kind of a "diagnose the problem, grab a needle, bite a leather strap, and lance the boil" kind of mood, which Härlig är Jorden suits very neatly.

Be warned. This is a beautiful film, but only via its utter bleakness. There is a core of grim humanity to it, and its satirical intentions are totally humanistic and noble, but there is nothing fun here at all.

Be warned that it opens with a scene of a non-graphic but harrowing act of genocide. It gets better from there, but is never pretty. I share it because it's timely and important, not because it's at all pleasant.

NEW IMPROVED INSTITUTIONAL QUALITY

SPOILER ALERT: THIS IS A FILM ABOUT YOU

Oh, Christ, no. Avenatti might be pondering a 2020 presidential bid.

At least this gives the left a chance to soothe my fears that when we got our own overambitious sociopath running for office, we might just back him.

It would do me a world of good to see us collectively shrug off the sort of self-serving cognitive dissonance that would let that happen.

He's being a real useful 900-pound-gorilla, but I wouldn't even trust him with my Samsonite luggage, let alone public office.

(i got exactly what i wanted out of this interaction ^___^ )

you're a stupid buttface with a stupid dragon butt that looks like your stupid dragon face cause it's some kind of dragon facehead butt stupid dragon butthead

(I promise this one isn't about anybody you know.)
