Wish I could make it this year. Been too long since I was last “on planet”…and have yet to partake in Life Day… *visions of Space Mom singing*

Here comes Star Wars & Disney Store online tempting me into adopting a lothcat… www.starwars.com/news/disney-...

Klingons as therapists: “Today is a good day to cry”

JoeZarian Date: 2’25/1026— So…this weekend was the 40th reunion for my high school graduating class. I’ve not attended since the 10 year event. Granted, I do live about an 8-ish hour drive (each way) from my hometown. However, if I *wanted* to, I could make it work. Therein lies the rub… 1/10

Well…this was a pleasant surprise that was a longtime in coming. In my prior tenure with my employer in their tech support dept I would randomly speak with a peer in a sister site who was an Aussie. Now that I am in a different dept, that has not occurred; much to my aural sadness… 1/2

And this is why I HATE that my employer has moved/hosted a good portion of their stuff on a cloud service: major AWS outage has literally hobbled operations for us today. 🤬

If you’re seeing this, drop an old photo you still love. A photo of @kevidently.bsky.social & me taken by a WDW Photopass CM in the Magic Kingdom the night before I took him to Pandora: the World of Avatar in AK for the 1st and seeing his brain melt on Flight of Passage… (Feb 2018)

I enjoy scraping the dust off of my geeky profile from time to time to post/share things, like this announcement by Hasbro regarding TRON merch (found via @laughingplace.com on Twi/X while they’re on the ground at NYCC this weekend).

First day back on work schedule after extended weekend. Feeling introspective (forever and always). Here’s a throwback to 6yrs ago of me being contemplative and introspective… #mcm #monochromemonday

Slipping into that whispery headspace where feelings of lonliness come peeking ‘round the corners…

Well…this was NOT on my JoeZerween Bingo card: neighborhood power outage. Just hit less than 15mins ago. Service provider is already aware and the message on their auto-systems is giving an estimate of by 6pm local time for restoral of service.

👀 👉🏻👈🏻

Jumpin’ Jiminy… Just posted my latest photo to my dust-laden tikkytok account. I forgot to include the usual parade of hashtags. Will be curious to see what kind of reach it gets…

Nipped from a trailer for Zootopia2: new equine to thirst over… *screenshot from an IG Story feed ad for the film

JoeZarian Date: 2’25/0928— Though I’ve been quiet online about it, the concept of me nearing another birthday does appear in my brain from time to time. Feeling more blasé about it overall this time ‘round. 1/7

*attempting to look innocent and not called out by the last panel…*

Well…please pray for me as I attempt doing a thing graphic design-wise. Recently saw an element that would—in my opinion—make for a decent piece for use by @batuupride.bsky.social. Bear in mind, I have NO graphic design experience to really speak of. Just rare, random, brain-flashes that hit me.

This past Sat I was out and about handling errands. Had my trusty iPod Nano (7th Gen) w/me to keep me entertained. It appears I have lost my wee audio pal. I haz a sad and accept I shall need to replace it as I prefer to keep music/podcasts/etc on a separate device instead of on my phone… 🫤

Seems over in the other place, Mr HiRez is using his subsidiary account to post something like this…and reveling in the adverse reactions it is getting… My stocks of gasteds to be flabbered are in no way surprised seeing this from him.

Time for this fatboy to see what the offerings branded under her saiintlyness, Dolly, are like…

Not me considering purchasing a silicon peen-replica an OF and animal care activist has had produced of himself. But…he’s such an adorable, goofy, golden retriever of a himbo with Mummy era Brendan Frasier vibes… *swoon*

Little late for #tummytuesday in the Eastern timezone for the US, bit still wanted to share this as this current Tummy Tuesday also fell on National Teddy Bear day…and this throwback to 9/08/2018 would appease both nicely, I believe…

Oooo…the voice of JoeZer…??

I’m not angry. I swear. Don’t let the bit of scowling while wearing a shirt from an Eagle Levi/Leather bar. I’ll let you draw your own conclusions. Make sure they are correct, or there may be floggings to be doled out.

Started a bit slow this morning, but I am now on my way in to DragonCon as swiftly as the L/subway gets me there…

Hi. It’s me. I’m the problem, it’s me.

@itsamia.bsky.social signing at #dragoncon

Day 2 has kicked off…

So…here I be…

Remember this from a few days ago…? My company’s tech team did, indeed, ship out a replacement from HQ to my home. It arrived this past Thursday, and I opted to wait until this weekend to set it up. Umm…

Well…looks like I get to call my company’s tech support “teams” to see about getting a replacement monitor as this can’t be a good thing going on with the one on the right… 🤨

What was once bare bones, has now been updated to be more fleshed out. Time to go a-tapping and such!

The team at Drunken Dragon Hotel has produced quite an array of merch related to DragonCon and some of the niche fandoms (Cult of the Marriott Carpet, Cult of the FedEx standee, etc) by tieing in them into mainline fandoms (Trek, Star Wars, etc)…

For those of a mind, the DragonCon app has begun operation for 2025. It is bare bones at the moment, but it is live. Have fun updating. Should anyone desire to pop me as a friend in the app, zap me a DM via this platform…

I was having an OK-ish day, for a Monday. I swear that I was… However, between seeing the suit at the US Supreme Court to have Obergefell v. Hodges overturned, and someone I follow posting a meme equating… 1/4

JoeZarian Date: 2’25/0807— During work today I was handling an item that needed to have a follow set up for it a few weeks out and found that my birthday is now exactly 8 weeks away. At this very moment I am not of a mind to celebrate. Could that change as the date draws closer? 🤷🏻‍♂️ uno/dos

Scrolling the social medias outside BSKY and this was plopped into my feed by Al G’Rhythm over in zuckerbook. I have a feeling y’all can guess which actor caught my eye first before their dialogue kicks in… youtube.com/shorts/IF-WQ...

His next scheduled, geek-related, appearance is set to coincide with DragonCon in a few weeks during Labor Day Weekend (held in Downtown Atlanta). Look for him there as the huggable “booth bear” assisting @missingvolume.bsky.social…

BP at the Movies has concluded. Our hirsute JoeZer is awaiting the next available transit off Midtownia to the moon of Arium Falls…

Disliking the humidity (boo, summer in the south). In the lobby area at the moment… Overheard quite a few others mention not having seen SW: ANH on a cinema screen since the “special edition” release in 1996. Also a wide mix of age ranges.

The JoeZer has landed at the Fox. There appears to be an Imperial presence here already (courtesy of the GA garrrison of the 501st Legion)…

Hi, howdy, hey, y’all!! JoeZer here! Today is the day for the showing of Star Wars at The Fabulous Fox Theatre in Midtown Atlanta. I have an extra ticket available if you’re in the metro Atlanta area & can get to the Fox by 7:15pm (movie starts at 7:30pm). Send a DM to Batuu Pride to claim.
