One of us was having the time of his life and the other was being a Top Tier Husband <3

BEACH VACAY Gosh heck criminy, I didn't realize how much I'd needed this

A week ago I hadn't planned to take time off, then my husband suggested we take next week off as we've both just finished some stressy work projects. Just to chill and catch up on chores and such. Once I booked the time I realized how badly I need a break... And now we're going to Tenerife o.O

And crazy to think about, but today is our 100th episode just after Star Trek day!

This was a delight. And thanks to the magic of editing, @kmart.bsky.social and I were also joined in song by @kergiby.bsky.social and @crimsonruari.bsky.social! pca.st/episode/3b84...

WOULD YOU RATHER A) be strong, indestructible, and able to fly and see through walls like Superman OR B) be able to bring yourself to go to bed on time and reliably sleep comfortably through the night until just before your alarm goes, feeling rested and energized four days a week

Paddle paddle paddle Braved some more open water today, enjoying the last stretches of summer!

This is my rifle And that is my gun This one shoots bullets And that one

Haaa I can't remember why "John Stoat" wrote that or why it's in my handwriting XD Do you know, @carrizo.bsky.social?

I've been excited for this for so long! I can't wait to play through this story @toledo.bsky.social has written, inspired by his own experiences as a missionary in Argentina, about Elder Hartley's mission in Paraná. Religious life is unfamiliar to me, and I'm keen to explore this story!

This is wonderful news! The book is fantastic and I had a great time narrating it. It was really fun to work with @utunu.bsky.social to craft and refine culturally appropriate character voices — and figure out how to speak Gnollish without a cool drooly muzzle XD

Ruin a book by adding "Tom Clancy's" to the title: Tom Clancy's Heathen City

What are the odds the Kurrukh becomes the next niche Rule34 target of the fandom* Taking bets now! *I am actively influencing the results, shhh

Celebrated my husband's birthday at the zoo this weekend with some excellent friends. These are the good days! 🎉

Can't sleep so I searched "noticed you across the bar" and Bluesky is pretty great actually

WOW that's amazing to see And it's a dang good book too! Go see for yourself if you're at EF :)

Yaaaay! I finally got to show my co-host @kmart.bsky.social around the 31st century and watch Michael Burnham on DRUGS and we got to peek through a book about the incredible make-up that a wonderful listener gifted us and AAA it was so much fun!

Who's a Stand-Up Paddle Puppy? Who's a little SUP Pup? Me! I am! And I'm heckin PRECIOUS! (seriously I'm taking to this thing like a duck to water and I hope we have a long lingering summer so I can enjoy it more)

Being a greymuzzle rules because when your friends throw a rager they're like hey hey, help yourself to Doritos or LSD (if it's your first time, ask FuckWolf78) wanna talk about Renaissance men's fashion for an hour or enjoy some lightly grilled filet mignon or cuckold my husband or take a nap?

I watch Star Trek for the plot.

Context doesn't matter, just enjoy this great new phrase

...doesn't it?!

Old MacDonald had a van

I had completely forgotten this episode. I missed a bunch of Voyager's seventh season when they aired in 2000 and subsequence rewatches haven't cemented them in my brain.. So interesting to rediscover these great stories decades later!

How many French speaking people have named their cat Gépété by now

Heck jeepers fuck

And here's the kicker:

what do we want TIME TRAVEL when do we want it

I'm pretty quick at phone typing but some words are speed bumps every time "Why yes I'd love to make your friend's a... c! q, u... a... i? n- *re-read* -tance!"

Heckraiser #MildHorror

A recent thought I'm mulling: Some combinations of virtues are just really rare. Inspiring AND considerate? Cautious AND adventurous? Imaginative AND disciplined? Determined AND understanding? When I think of people with any given virtue, they almost all very clearly lack a specific other one

From now on I will be pronouncing metadata as muh-TAH-duh-TAH

I've heard the "pee is stored in the balls" quote but I don't know who said it, why it's funny and I never bothered to look it up Please explain it to me as uselessly and insanely as possible (without actually lying)

Annnnd that was the final straw. Uninstalled the One Handed Porn Feed Scrolling App that used to be called Twitter because it doesn't do the one (fully legal, where I live) thing I used it for. Feels good.

Who turned off my antivirus? >:( #StarTrek #TNG

I've been looking forward to this one! We're finally doing "Masks", that bonkers episode of TNG where the ship turns into a temple. It was so much fun! joyoftrek.com/episode/joy0...

If you see this, I implore you to post from your device without context

This is my fighting style.

Halfway into July and the colours are still flying. Hell yeah.

Recruiting @kergiby.bsky.social to edit our Star Trek podcast was the best(*) decision I ever made * One of them anyway (**) ** Maybe not one of the very best, but it was up there (***) *** Sigh. No it wasn't

What a fantastic dayn Rustled up a bunch of friends, rented kayaks and paddle boards and spent the day on the water in our home town.

I saw Superman today! what a delight. Earnest, insightful, bright, emotional and fun. What more can you ask for? Supes is a figure of legend, like Odysseus, Anansi, the Monkey King and Homer Simpson. He doesn't need to be reimagined; he should be who he is: An immigrant who cares about people.

In hindsight, I don't know why I imagined this would wind up in front of an actual Youth

Age verification BUT FOR YOUNG What's a thing that was completely normal for you as a kid but utterly baffled every greymuzzle who ever learned about it?

Being a dog in my 40s makes me really aware of, and thankful for, moments where my mind and body just feel really good*, right now. My breaths feel nourishing, my comfy home-clothes are smooth on my skin, my muscles glow pleasantly from recent effort and my thoughts are calm and uncluttered. Nice.

uhhh excuse me

My TTRP buds today unintentionally produced the phrases "a complicated mechanism, like a RuPaul Machine" and "an airtight, body-fitting coffin, like a Suckofffagus"

WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING Supping is a water activity when you're planning on swimming anyway Why the hell did I try it fully clothed and with no towel or dry clothes And there was nobody around to save me if I got attacked by ducks or a Killer Pond Shark And there was goose poop on the deck

Oh, just a 44yo dog impulsively renting a board to try stand-up paddling for the FIRST HECKIN' TIME in his life at 9PM on a school night #yolo (remember that, fellow youths?)
