cw: corporate hellworld; false pride; rainbow-washing
So I just made the mistake of reading the news immediately before getting started on my day job, which means I went straight from reading about DeSantis to seeing the new "SHOW YOUR PRIDE!" setting in MSWord on my work laptop.
And now I'm left with this unsettling and hollow feeling, like I just got a card in the mail from a distant wealthy aunt that reads "SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR IMPENDING GENOCIDE" with a picture of a sad cartoon puppy and a $5 gift certificate.
And it's not even signed.
I found a really good image search.

I just had the most boomer-ass discussion problem with @zebratron2084 overc whether or not me feeling that “Let it Be” is probably my third least favorite Beatles albums is grounds for a breakup. Once we looked up the track list it was over though. There’s one halfway banger on there and the rest is just music for dentist’s waiting rooms.

enh
i'm alive
overwhelmed by work and the never-ending cat drama (current plotline: we have a human squatter next door and now HE'S accidentally trapping artie up there semi-daily)
mostly hiding out on discord, kinda happy to be away from anything resembling twitter tbh, mostly just been at the edge of depression and playing a lot, lot, lot of slay the spire, nova drift, and civ 6
peg and i have been a little squabbly and stressed but we're otherwise good, fought a little the other day but then she dragged me to a Frontline Assembly/Ministry/Gary Numan concert and i watched her dance for hours and that did miracles for our stress levels i think
otherwise yeah
enh
i'm alive
now i want a whole collection of wrongly illustrated state T-shirts: the barren deserts of Seattle, the gator-infested mists of the London bayou, the neon glamour of Jackson Hole's theater district by night...
meanwhile I'm over here staring at the way queer people used to refer to themselves in the 1990s in the most charming, snarlingly unpolitik way and wondering if some of y'all would just melt like a chocolate bar left on a sunny dashboard to hear it. language is a full-contact sport and if you react with disgust to any jargon that is even mildly outre you are handing ammunition to people who wish you overt harm
Hey, is anybody else playing King of the Castle or willing to pick it up? I'd love to get a game together.

I feel less safe and secure as a modern adult now knowing that I can, at any time, buy an Optigan for only $4,000.
re: POKER FACE, "ESCAPE FROM SHIT MOUNTAIN" (S1E9) SPOILERS
I mean, her whole banjo leitmotif is straight out of a "lost lovable miscreant dog" show from the 1970s ferchrissake... Gonna start callin' her Boomer, or Benji, or Wishbone. XD (Or Coyote Doggirl, h/t to Lisa Hanawalt...)
She's such a good scragglepuppy though. You just know that in her last canid life she had a reluctantly adopted little flock of ducklings following her around, or something...
Every now and then I run across this drawing I did of @zebratron2084 and I always feel like I have to share it.
perv gear, zeerust, black ICE(?), extremely large polynomials and yes that is a euphemism for something
So @anthracite has new breast pumps. They are shiny and solid black and make her look rather like a cyborg. I want to dress her up in a trenchcoat and have a hot night of shadowrunning on the town together, maybe pennyskim the Orbital Bank of Zurich with her four terabit nipples.
