I figured when I turned 40 that feeling upset that certain people don’t even say happy birthday would kinda be a thing of the past. Yeah it’s just another day, but when these are people that you recently drove halfway across the state to see for their birthday and they can’t even say the words hurts

I'm trying to get myself in the Christmas spirit, which is silly because I have more or less hated Christmas since I was a kid. I need to clean my office, maybe get a candle with a nice christmas-y scent, and if I feel really bold a tiny string of lights. Might not work, but it'll smell nice?

A lot of subordinates are asking questions about why I have yelled ENOUGH! that are answered by me yelling ENOUGH!

Apps are always asking me 'mute? block? report? don't recommend? downvote?' when the only option I want or need is "Imagine I am your grand vizier and I have yelled "ENOUGH!" without explanation."

Happy thanksgiving. Boat stuck.

Pope said stop being weird

Pffft, ya'll don't think I have ADHD do you? (Yes, yes I do. Officially.)

"I need to find a new job and go to college. What IT field will still be relevant by the time I finish my degree? Oh, security isn't going anywhere." Now I am a Data Security Analyst.

This whole "going through a midlife crisis" thing as I am literally about to turn 40 in a week is kinda harshing my buzz, not gonna lie.

I wonder what it says about me and my musical tastes that I mostly grew up in the 90s/00s and yet if you were to ask me my musical "decade" choice I'd have to tell you I'd listen to 80s over most things.

There is ratfuckery afoot, of this I am certain.

I picked up Pokemon ZA and just started it. Now, I haven't seriously played a Pokemon game since... Red. I spent an entire summer playing red and blue with my buddy, and nothing has captured that high. ZA, in like 20 minutes, has captured what my brain always said MMO Pokemon would be. Wild stuff.

I have been so incredibly depressed lately. I'm taking my meds, but nothing brings me joy for the most part, and when it comes time for dinner every night **nothing** sounds good, which leads to me not eating, which is saving me money but you know, nearly passing out from lack of eating isn't good

@cmet.bsky.social I just want you to know that you have what might be my favorite webcomic running right now, and I look forward to seeing what the brigade is up to weekly. This Becket and Klara stuff is killing me, though -- every time they're together I am just going "NOW KISS". So, thank you. :)

This mood is just - really strong right now.

So I'm looking through the roadmap for Destiny 2 and I noticed that they're doing universal slot exotic ornaments, which is rad. But it makes me wonder -- what is the difference in systems between that and just making Ghost Shells custom appearances?

With my birthday coming up, I might pick up Pokemon Legends: Z-A. I know I have had gaming paralysis lately, but I haven't played a good pokemon game in a long, long time.

I am so, so fucking tired.

We're gonna be playing Pathfinder (think D&D but better) over on Cool Zone Media Book Club for the next six weeks, and I figured why not start with a little prequel story as a teaser, complete with character art. margaretkilljoy.substack.com/p/the-tale-o...

Missed my shot by a few days then took it midday today and hooo boy, a few hours later I felt like absolute dog water. So much so I asked my MIL to watch kiddo and just crashed out for two hours feeling ill. Slightly better now but it's the lingering effects that are bugging me.

I know they're going to try and drag us back into Hell tomorrow, but fuck that and fuck them. Tonight we get to breathe a small sigh of relief that there are people out there still fighting for everyone, and it's not over. I can breathe again, for the moment.

Okay I am abso-fucking-lutely over this day now.

A movie you've seen more than seven times with a gif.

Body dysmorphia is a bitch. I've lost this weight, I'm fitting into way smaller clothes (hell my wife bought me L undershirts and I managed to wear it to the wedding) but when I see myself in photos all I see is how big my belly looks and it's just so self-defeating.

My Destiny 2 Halloween Costume this year. It's been a surprising hit with the community, getting lots of Best Dressed awards. #FotLCreation2025 #Destiny2

I'm pretty sure the guy who I knocked out with 1 second before evac in ARC Raiders is really, *really* cross with me right about now. Shouldn't have gotten into a gunfight with me earlier, I guess. 🤷‍♂️

So I gotta ask -- what was the last song that was stuck in your head? For me it's both Elton's version and Taron's version from Sing. Oy, could be worse. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHwV...

So uh, in better news -- I'm going to a wedding this weekend and knew I needed new clothes because of my weight loss. I went from a 54 waist to a 44, and a 5X shirt to a 2XLT (and honestly I fit in an XL but it's not flattering or easy to breathe in).

All I'll say is if it wasn't for having bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

Spent a few *hours* attempting to configure the Wireguard + PiHole setup with Google Cloud and I'm not sure if I'm just not smart enough, or if I'm doing something wrong, or what -- but I cannot get it to work. Argh.

I don't think I'm super intimidating but uh, maybe? I'm like a 5/10 I'd think.

You ever get set off and then you just can't cool off? Like hours later and you're still spiraling back on it? How do you shake it off? I'm really struggling with it tonight and every time I think I've managed to relax I immediately get amped up again.

Hey @falloutplays.bsky.social what are your thoughts on ARC Raiders?

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

@aclu.org Hey ACLU, isn't this a violation of the Hatch Act? I pulled this from the USDA website about 5 minutes ago.

Chirico going to grab a soda from the fridge Votoms ost for some reason:

I think I am going to put up a list of the awesome games I need to play and make a wheel, and the rules will be "you must play for 1 hour." Then do a quick 1 hour write-up and if there's a game that just GRABS me then I'll have something new to play. I guess. Maybe.

While I may be suffering from severe depression right now, I did force myself to restart BG3 for a new, “final” run using a tiefling hexblade. I’m only level 3 and I’m already hitting enemies with shadow blade + booming blade for 30+ damage a turn. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

I present to you: Corb Cooby + Orb

I've had the plague for like a week now and it feels like at night once everyone heads to bed and I am just alone with my thoughts, that my drive to do anything is just gone. I have a dozen AAA titles I could play but gaming ADHD is stopping me from starting something new (fear of the unknown?).

the gang has to go shopping for a charity auction at the Gallagio, and so... #art #worldofwarcraft #warcraftart #orc

@mynameisbyf.bsky.social Hey Byf, I'm sure you get a billion lore questions but are you keeping up with the weekly logs? Is that Drifter's ghost (I think it is), and hooo boy does that mean that we've got ghosts feeling emotions? Like ~love~ emotions? Jealousy? This is wild.

If I could stop being other people's punching bag for like, a couple days, that'd be nice.

#TTGF now officially 7/8H!
