Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only

So far we have several mutations, a character who’s been bitten by a vampire, some delicious drinks, and THREE TANK FIGHTS… and we’re still a month from game day! Pile on the chaos for Team Sensible Shoes, and help us help the kids! www.extra-life.org/participant/...

Nap time! Blanket fort if ya got em.

Oh hey, it’s one of the games I did some supplementary testing on back in the day. Always did dig the visual aesthetic of the game. Developers had a lot of fun with what PS1 polygons could do.

We’ve crested $1000 now, and so I will paint up the Magma Giant so that it can pummel Team Sensible Shoes with its massive fists! A Kitsune-turned-Dark Stone Shaman, a Sumo-turned-Nun, a ???-turned-Enforcer, and a ???-turned-Traveling Monk will fight the magma monsters for #EXTRALIFE next month!

Mini mix-and-match me!

Today I taught a young Canadian person about the band Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet. This is their own culture they were ignorant about! What is going on the Great White North?

My father has decided that my inspired class will be a Traveling Monk. Prepare for a lot of jokes about ringing the bell. But what’s my background class? And what classes will @qryztinker.bsky.social play on game days? So many choices for chaos for the kids! www.extra-life.org/participant/...

I’ve received two coins recently that I quite like. One to celebrate the good works of a friend, and one to celebrate my own good works and service.

our national motto

The painting milestone for my first $500 raised for this year’s #EXTRALIFE are these fabulous Magma Fiends. I am very happy happy with how they turned out, and they look great on the board with their lava trails. Team Sensible Shoes will have a fiery good time fighting them in six weeks!

In just 6 weeks Team Sensible Shoes will gather around my table and livestream our Shadows of Brimstone experience as we take part in #EXTRALIFE for the 9th year. Help us help the kids, make the game more exciting too! Character selections are still up for grabs! www.extra-life.org/participant/...

Helped my brother buy a new car today and this was the only decoration the salesman had on the desk.

Weesa warriors!

I’m googly eyed for the googly-eyed squid (Teuthowenia pellucida) 😍🧵🧪

Doordash Bonks says: "Yousa deffin'ly be walkin' without rhythm, or yousa be callin' da worm."

From the letters of renowned smuggler Doordash Bonks to his mother, translated from formal Gunganese: “Dearest Big Mama Bonks, I have arrived on the Hutt planet of Nar Shadda, ready to begin my life as a smuggler. Already I have made myself useful by intimidating a Pyke into ceasing to (1/4)

Meesa called Doordash Bonks! Meesa bombaaaad smuggler.

Okay, look, Starfield in its original form is not a great game, but hear me out here…

Last night we watched the surprisingly excellent WHAM! documentary on Netflix (done by the same guy who did the recent and also excellent doc on DEVO). I have now already lost WHAM!ageddon for 2025, but I feel so free. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wham!_(...

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Watched “Return of the Jedi” tonight, and I hadn’t really realized how skewed my mental image of this movie was by how many dozens of times I watched pan and scan versions on smaller tv’s. All manner of background elements felt new to in digital on a large tv.

I’m watching “The Empire Strikes Back,” and I always love how Luke Skywalker, hero of the Rebellion, crashes two ships within about 20 minutes of screen time.

The Magma Fiends are nearly ready to take on Team Sensible Shoes in November for this year’s #EXTRALIFE They like to eat too many rocks and then dribble magma all over the floors. Sort of like kitties, but worse.

8 weeks from today we’ll be hours deep into day one of #extralife weekend, and we still don’t know what characters we’re playing (and I’m painting)! Help shape the destiny of the journeyman characters of Team Sensible Shoes, and help us help the kids! www.extra-life.org/participant/...

Oh so that’s what Coil was talking about. Huh.

Hey, did you know that there’s multiple chances to choose the character destinies of Team Sensible Shoes for Extra Life in November? It’s true! Tell us what we’re going to play and have a hand in the chaos. I’ll even paint the player figures ahead of the games! www.extra-life.org/participant/...

*me in the very early 2000’s*: Evangelion is my favorite anime, perhaps a favorite entertainment over all. There’s a lot in some of the characters I really identify with. *me now, a year after getting formally diagnosed with depression that I’ve probably had my entire life*: Oh. That makes sense.

And now I see this on an LGBTQ warhammer FB page lol. So, have my LGBTQ ork meme.

Today I learned that the song “The Gambler” is not an immediate cultural touchstone for my therapist. She is younger than me, so I guess she has an excuse. I am broadening her cultural horizons with every session.

It’s happening again! Team Sensible Shoes once again heads to the mines to fight monsters and rack up mutations to help the kids of Children’s Miracle Network! Game days are Nov 15 & 16, but all manner of chaos-inducing incentives are open now! www.extra-life.org/participant/...

We’ve collected examples of trans culture across the globe to remind us that there have been and always will be trans people. Everywhere! ✨🏳️‍⚧️🌏 Take a minute to learn about our transcestors!

Tom Clancy’s Feminine Mystique

Happy Trans History Month! ✨🏳️‍⚧️✨ We’re here and we’ve been here! Trans people have always existed and there's so much wisdom, strength, and talent we can find from our trans-ancestors. Here are some historical trans figures that helped shape our present and our future.

I had a vision earlier today. Divine inspiration, really: “Dirty Danzig: the songs of ‘Dirty Dancing’ done in the style of Danzig and the Misfits” How can we make this a thing? I feel like we’ll have the time of our lives if it can be made manifest.

Finally finished “Into the Drowning Deep” today (yes, I am a slow reader), and what I particularly enjoyed about the book was how thick with hubris the story was. Even the characters we should be rooting for have some hubris smeared across their lives, and it was delightful.

The only Gavin I'll vote for

Fuck all the way off.

Okay, but also, Matt Berry is the voice of Bane.

It’s Friday, it’s been a very long week. Tonic water is blacklight reactive. That makes life a little more bearable already.

Joke’s on you, I’m the end of my bloodline anyway.

Today in Pacific Drive: I saw a column of rock rise from the ground and moments later sink back, and I thought “Huh, wonder who that’s for.” Not 15 minutes later one of those columns had risen up and flipped my venerable old station wagon upside down with me in it. Oh, that’s who it’s for.
