I have four days off work. I'm not going to put pants on, leave my comfy chair, or get out from under my blanket the entire time. I am pretending my wife and I are the only people in the world. It's going to be glorious.

I turned around yesterday and kicked a bo. I'm fairly certain I broke my small toe. I swear to god, one of these days I'm going to have a week where I don't do something incredibly stupid to myself. I don't know when. But some day.

November 13th-19th is Trans Awareness Week.

Every time I hear that someone has “rizz” my immediate reaction is to picture Rizzo the rat in his letterman jacket and backwards hat, and then if I think whoever we’re talking about is at least as cool as that I go “yeah”

My wife talks about our babies. Every day, they buck the odds. And every day, I'm grateful to have them in my life, no matter how long or short the time. And I know this is a better life than the kittens could ever have expected. They deserve it.

My artist friend LJ is creating resin-cast holiday ornaments. She needs to raise funds to get new molding equipment and supplies. #art #artist #holiday #christmas www.kickstarter.com/projects/ljs...

i accidentally stumbled on a great inexpensive gift idea, which is to do your partner's half of the chores for them for a day or a week or whatever is appropriate to your arrangement i did it for Morgan's birthday and also for our anniversary and it went over very well

I'm the luckiest they that ever there was, with the most wonderful wife. 18 years and everything's changed, but the important things have only gotten better. Here's to another 18 years of learning and growing with you, beloved.

Honestly, I would pay money for this. I'm sure Poe would understand.

Like an 8 under normal circumstances (for reasons I'll never understand). But, like, a -5 when I'm in my "Oh god, I don't know what's happening, what am I doing here?" stage.

need to get back to the #GreatTrekWatch and finish it it was an ambitious project that deserves to be completed

#StarTrek Discovery said "fuck" once, like, just to prove they could, and they coasted on that energy after

You wanna follow some cool trans writers? I gotcha. go.bsky.app/VaypaqC

time to switch to winter wardrobe well, not quite time, but i have cute sweaters i want to wear so, close enough

my CC is taking away our offices at the campus where i teach it's very demoralizing

i don't know how people do it for any value of "it"

Okay, ya'll, the rules have changed. You are now encouraged to go back into the past and stomp on butterflies. Stop somebody's grandmother from meeting their grandfather. Whatever. Let's give it a shot on another timeline, okay?

So, as some of you may know, I have frog fear. Serious phobia. Don't even like to see pictures of them. However, I will make an exception for the Portland Frog and all their inflatable friends. Fight the power, baby.

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from “Star Wars,” “Star Trek,” “Dr. Who,” or “Transformers.”

I am the luckiest person in the world. Adjusting to my job has been hard for me, with autistic masking, learning large amounts of things, and doing job tasks I've never done before. And with no need to ask, my wife picked up all the slack and made life wonderful. I love @nerdybutcute.bsky.social

Sometimes, as an artist, one gets to draw something just FUN! This is a Krull-er.... A pastry weapon based on the Glaive from the 80s film Krull. I LOVE this! Thanks to Fainting Goat Games for commissioning this piece of art from me.

Out of training, and first full day of work. I've worked with customers before, but never providing support over the phone. I'm exhausted. My head hurts. My eyes hurt. Good lord, I have nothing but admiration for people who are good at/enjoy this. Y'all are rock stars.

Thank you, Mr. President. We miss your steady, intelligent, compassionate leadership.

my doctor stabbed me twice in the arm so i am not doing any chores today, i've decided. that's really quite fair, i think.

my brain fog is caused by medication and not COVID, so i have hope of recovery from it as soon as my regimen changes, but god, it's awful

Twice, during a rare order of delivery food, I have tried to get crunchy Cheetos. Twice, I have been denied my lovely powder-covered treats. You'd think in a world like this one you could still get the little things, right?

the thing about one of my current meds is i hate it

the thing about the state of the world right now is i hate it

I mentioned Talk Like a Pirate Day to my trainer at work. She thought I said Taco Pirate. I deeply regret that I am not an artist, and cannot take advantage of this marvelous image. But if you are and are inspired...hey, at least share the pics with me, okay?

Back to working. Back to masking (with, perhaps, questionable success, but hey, I'm trying). I'm genuinely quite tired. #ActuallyAutistic #Autism

As glad as I am to have a job again, this whole "getting used to operating on a schedule for eight hours a day like a real grown-up" thing is taking a lot of getting used to. I am SO out of practice at this.

Nice!

As part of my birthday celebration, my amazing wife, @nerdybutcute.bsky.social, did the sink full of dishes I've let build up for the last four days. She is amazing, and I'm so, so lucky!!! (Sometimes, it's the little things.)

I listen to audiobooks while I sleep (it helps keep my brain from getting overly talky at me). And I woke up just in time to hear this: “Humans need fantasy to be human. To be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape.” I don't know about you, but I needed to hear that. #Discworld

The Marquis of New Orleans. Besides his sorcery, he's also a great warrior. His enemies say he's a were-crocodile from the Old World. Would he not be more fearsome were it true? Under his leadership, New Orleans has become the seat of magical power & bard culture in the south New World Territories.

school starts today another semester opens excited and nervous, as always got @moggerb.bsky.social by my side, so it'll all be well

sleepless night, the night before the start of the semester as always some things never change, do they?

After two years and four months...

the popularity of #kpopdemonhunters is poisoning my Google searches for info about 13th century Persian Sufi poets, damn it

#ttrpg goodness!
