Going live for the start of Season 5.5 in Marvel Rivals! www.twitch.com/craftycurler

...sigh... Should I try to make another serious run at Twitch streaming? I want to, but my of my social anxiety/self-doubt is screaming "No!"

My poor Buddy has a stomach rash. Since he won't stop licking it and let it heal, he's back in the Cone of Shame for a few days.

My dog, Buddy. "We sure did love our exercise. This year, we went on 156 miles worth of Walkies! Yay! "I must've been a hungry boy... You fed me a total of 710 times - that's almost 1,100 cups of dog food! "I was definitely the Bestest Boy, too... since you gave me 438 treats!"

That tracks, tho.

I'm so over trying to interact with other Trekkies. For being fans of a franchise rooted in equity, celebrating differences, and embracing the future, so many of them can't (or won't) enjoy any show past Voyager. The comments they write are just negative vitriol, too, and I can't anymore.

Okay. I need to know. When Gays come and pick Their Diva, I chose Annie Lennox. My friend Nick freaked because he, too, is an Annie Lennox Gay. He insists we are rare. Are we?

GAYS AT GALAXYCON IN COLUMBUS! WHAT ARE YOUR WEEKEND PLANS FOR BAR HOPPING?!

I got an upgrade to Business Class on my flight to Columbus since I used credit card points. The legroom is insane. Instead of being happy about it, I'm genuinely mad because I know at one point in time, this much legroom was standard for EVERYONE. Late-stage Capitalism is the worst.

Buddy knew I was flying away for five days. He made leaving my house emotionally impossible. Oof. Columbus, you better be worth it this year. 😅 (I'm jk. I know it'll be a great time.) ...or else. (That is not a threat. It's me barely keeping it together.) ...what...?

Finally had the time to sit down and cancel my Spotify subscription. Excited to try out Qobuz! (But still open to other suggestions, too.)

I know I'll ultimately be okay, but the number of unexpected, sudden bills in my life needs to slow the fuck down. Like, Right meow.

PSA✨

Outside of "To Tell The Truth" (1969) and "Survivor" (2000) have any other game shows had theme songs with lyrics? 🤔 youtu.be/XMS_DdEnYZ0?...

Fun thread! Over 40? Drop a selfie. I am 40, so hopefully I still qualify. 😅

WHO'S GOT TWO THUMBS, SPEAKS LIMITED FRENCH, HAS A FRAGILE NERVOUS SYSTEM, AND FINALLY BEAT MARVEL RVIALS' ZOMBIES MODE ON NIGHTMARE 4 WITH ALL FIVE CHARACTERS SOLO? THIS MOI. (I stg, Khonshu owes me a blow job for the amount of work I had to put in to do this in his name... 😅)

Best. Snow Day. Ever.

...omg... I finally did it. And honestly, I can't believe I finally did it. But yeah, I actually beat Marvel Rivals' Zombies mode on Nightmare 4 difficulty in a Solo Run with The Punisher. This mode is INSANE.

"Elphabussy" is a word I did not need to ever hear a gay man say to describe his "magical (you-know-what)."

My mom just said she misses the old TSN curling music. 😳

WHY ARE THESE COLORFUL SIT-IN-YOUR-CAR CAR WASHES SO MUCH FUN?!

OMG... I finally did it! I FINALLY completed every single achievement for every single hero in "Marvel Rivals." I've been chasing the last one for Captain America since the game dropped a year ago, and getting right timing and luck has been an absolute bitch... but tonight I finally pulled it off!

If I say, "like a Chika Cherry Cola," who out there knows what I'm talking about?

The biggest difference between the shots we call on a Sunday morning and the shots the pros call at the Olympic Trials is theirs is Plan A, whereas ours is a prayer. #Curling 🥌 #BrunchLeague #WindyCityCurling #SixEndsAndASnack

Talking with a friend, I laughed at thought of Trump "Blowing Bubba... And friends, an idea hit me... because Oh my God, of course... Can we get a bunch of people to go to the next Trump rally with a bunch of soapy water & wands, and have them "Blow Bubba"s at him as a form of silent protest? 😅

Wait. The Epstein emails joked that Trump sucked Clinton's (or, rather, "Bubba's") dick? I'm sorry, what? No wonder this man wants all of these files buried.

Alright, enough bitching about Boomers. Here's a timeline cleansing pic. Buddy was laying on the guest bed my nieces use, and he looked sad (like he was missing them). So I joined him, bu passed out. Somewhere in there, he scooched over 🥹... and mom snagged this photo.

Sitting in my doctor's waiting room. This obnoxious 70yo man has been completely overbearing, and I'm ready to scream.

Someone was not very happy with the overnight atmospheric developments... (and the other one was 😅)

"Wait... This is what you humans spend so much of your lives doing?"

Bit by the Autumn cooking bug. Currently making a crock pot of apple cider, and a pot full of gumbo.

I haven't taken a selfie in a minute, but the lighting of tonight's sunset after I finished the yard was too good to pass up.

Call. Your. Bitch-ass family. OUT.

Peak Autumn season colors are here!

Superboy and Krypto wish you a Happy Halloween!

Only people of a certain (awesome) age will understand me when I say I'm talkin' square biz to ya, baby.

Yes, it was Arm Day. But this post is more to thank the incredible woman who's been instrumental in my fitness journey for five years: Beth, my trainer and friend. Through midnight shifts, physical exhaustion, emotional & mental fatigue from life... She's been there for me. Thanks, love. 😊

Some pics from Sunday night's pumpkin carving with the family

It's so frustrating to get bad teammate after bad teammate in Marvel Rivals comp on a night I'm dialed in. And yet, what's even worse? Finally getting a great squad of teammates, only to have a shit go of it and become THEIR bad teammate.

After weeks of trouble, my stomach issues finally cleared up. I told my gastroenterologist the happy news. She nodded with a proud smile and said, "Good shit."

YASSSS, QUEENSLAYER!! My friends and I beat Nightmare 4 in "Marvel Rivals" Zombies mode after a 55-minute long grind through all twenty waves. Super fun, but omg was I sweating at the end. 😅 They should've called this difficulty Insane or something, given how different it is from Nightmare 1-3.

I feel like I could re-skeet this every day. I won't, but I could given, y'know... *gestures vaguely* ...everything.

Does anyone know how to "reset" the Twitch algorithm? It keeps suggesting the same streamers to me, no matter how many times I click 'not interested.'

Ordered Halloween costumes for Buddy and me. They're simple, but I think they'll be cute. 😊🐶

Videogames are art unless they are live service with pay to win microtransactions, AI and crunch, then they are the opposite of art. Art lifts us. It does not drain us.
