No exaggeration, Monster Rancher 2 is on my 'top 10 favorite games of all times' list. I can't recommend highly enough that this is an excellent price for a fantastic game, *and* it's predecessor (which honestly isn't a terrible game either... though falls well short of 2 IMO).

So I found out my eye doctor has closed their practice, and my patient info was sent back to my old doctor. A doctor who had left me feeling very... uncomfortable due to their reaction to transgender 'me'. I explained this to the woman who had reached out to me, expecting I'd get shrugged off.

A list if you're purchasing groceries as a gift or to help out people. Alt text available.

Pssst. I wanna tell you a sekrit. Sometimes I shout at @gailsimone.bsky.social's postings because a certain kind of shouty is humor, and I imagine it makes Gail happy and giggly to make people shouty in the right way. Who am I to deny the catharsis of practicing my 'exaggerate reaction for humor'?

Hey, my awesome creator moots. You know you want to! It's endorsed by @gailsimone.bsky.social after all!

Gender is a performance and I refuse to be typecast.

"Gharib da muh, Guru ki golak" Feed the poor, and you feed the Guru. Something else worth mentioning: langar is vegetarian (although not vegan), for those with dietary restrictions. It is done this way *by design*, because being vegetarian means they can feed more people of more religions.

I only have one good kidney, so the most I can do is put this on people's radar. :(

Eight million puppy-players just clicked 'Buy It Now'.

I... didn't know I needed Old Man Turtle Yaoi in my life. And yet here we are.

NEW MEME DROPPED!

If the dead don't want to be spoken of poorly then they should have been better people in life.

SONG FOR A FURRY Does he run? Does he play? Does he like to dance? My Sherwood Forest angel ain’t so big on wearing pants Face as cute as kittens, can he please be my mate? And show me all the downstairs Disney did not animate

Any and all 'late fees'. Bill payments, library books, subscriptions, movie rentals (if you're old enough to remember those)... Also, paying for at least an hour at the parking meter when you only need to be there for 15 minutes...

Unironically, this goes hard and I'm *going* to remember it. And I'm *going* to get to use it one day.

Babies and cheese slices. Just saying.

After lying dormant for quite some time, 1800gailbear.com recently started receiving violation reports again, so I thought I should put together a short thread about the site, its purpose, and how to navigate it. 1/8

"RACIAL_DEMOGRAPHIC are all super racist, and i feel the need to point that out for no good reason" the irony writes itself

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back! Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary. Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest! #MundaneHalloween

High pain days with a pet is the worst. Because sure, your pet will often sense it and be extra-cuddly, but: A) when I'm in pain, I just want to be left *alone* B) You still have to *take care* of said pet. I *do* love my clingy boi, but right now I want to wring his cute, needy little neck.

Well, I know the first (and only) thing *I'd* be clicking 'Dislike' on if this comes through. Look. Just because I dislike something, that shouldn't mean it affects others' opinions. If I don't wanna see it, I ignore it or block it. I curate *my* stream that way. Not *others*.

Some people from Canada are VERY VERY MAD at me for pointing out that Canada no longer allows pickles in the country. I get yelled at a LOT just for stating simple truths.

My 96 year old grandmother, all dressed up for her Hallowe'en party.

I know there's scarier out there, but for *me*, it was 'Fatal Frame'. It was a game I was literally only able to play in hour long stints before I had to decompress. I have a core memory of one of the moments that made me realized how much it was affecting me following.

TERRIBLE MOVIES I LIKE ANYWAY: The Lorax. Grammy kicks *SO MUCH* ass. (I hate when gifs don't upload right and I can't use the awesome ones)

@chucktingle.bsky.social So.... when *are* you planning to write this book idea? Or do you not want to steal Chuck Pringle's thunder?

No seriously, just read this thread. I got chills, and I mean that in the *best* of ways.

The tooth fairy once wrote to me IN ELVISH (or at least in runes) ON A LEAF! I was a lot more impressed by this as an adult than I was as a child. I wish I still had that leaf.

Phrases I never thought would come out of my mouth, but here we are: "If you didn't want my toes up your ass, you shouldn't have sat on my foot, Dummy."

While it's in a comedic tone, this 'How To India' YouTube page actually has a really good video talking about the act. It's not a how-to, but more an in-depth explanation about the why's of the concept for Westerners.

I woke up this morning to a Bsky stream that was basically nothing but baseball. Nothing. But. Baseball. For *hours*. Well, now I know how last night felt to Jays fans, at least.

@rolywest.bsky.social Immediately made me think of you and your love for other people's babies...

@radiodeadair.com As an avid fan of the 'Halloworst' specials every year, would it be possible to have a playlist put together of them? I mean, I do know I can make my *own* playlist, but figured I'd make the suggestion as I doubt I'm the only one who binges them every year! (or maybe I am...)

Oh, look what I just got from Instagram! A reason to leave instagram!

"What time should I expect you?"

I've been thinking about Matt Furie a lot during this period of political frog realignment, so I made this comic dedicated to him.

The only *true* way to ethically handle a Tesla:

Because I know I've got followers who will appreciate the aesthetic! You know who you are!

My best advice to try to get a handle on shit right now? Make something. Don't care what. Don't care if it's good. Don't care if it's just a big ass house you made in Sims 4, just lose yourself in something for an hour or so. It' s like flushing the brain toilet.

@8bitmickey.bsky.social Yeah so I took a look at the 'stair method'. And then I came across the 'fast travel' method and the fact shinies don't despawn and.... Never mind what I said about them fixing things. This feels like a feature, rather than a bug... with, admittedly, unexpected consequences.

Did you know you could do this? *I* didn't know you could do this. And now I do. Because of this lovely sign that's not going to be able to really *stop* the issue. .... I can't help but wonder if someone put the sign up as revenge for being fired.

I'll die on the hill that people can change. Not all of them *will*, but people absolutely *can*, and those who do deserve that chance to show they've improved. "You're only saying that because you-..." Yes. I've fucked up in the past. And I'd prefer the world to know who I *am*. Not who I *was*.

Sometimes I think I just have a soft heart. I’ll believe anyone who wants to change. The most wonderful people are the ones who’ve faced what they were, and chose to become someone better. What’s funny, though, is I’m not even suggesting GP is that sort of person because I honestly don’t know.

Oh no. No, no, no. Dammit! And I was so looking forward to Subnautica II, too. :(

Every now and again, going through old downloads, I come across a picture that I don't remember downloading, and I have no clue why. I must inflict one of these on you, because if I don't, it's going to drive me mad. Behold: Boobnana!
