May have gotten some food poisoning or something last night... had some seriously aggressive stomach pains/cramps that made it impossible to keep food down or even sleep. Major thanks to @huskerfox.bsky.social, who changed my puke-bucket and stayed up with me all night 'till the pharmacy opened. <3

Well, now that I'm in crutches & a splint and now that so much as taking a dump will have to be a time-consuming production, at least I finally have a legitimate excuse for watching whole reruns of "Frasier" while on the can.

Aw right, here we go... at the hospital, in the waiting room and... per personal tradition, listening to my pre-surgery song to keep my nerves soothed. youtube.com/watch?v=xaz8...

In preparation for my surgery, one of my co-workers got me a lovely... Jesus credit card?🙏 ... I guess in case I die on the operating table and need to pay down some unredeemed sins at the pearly gates? 😇

LETS TALK ABOUT BLACK CHARACTER DESIGN IN ANIMATION! Here's our FOURTH BONUS UMBERT EP Featuring Austin Faber of @blacknanimated.bsky.social! Brought to you by our EXECUTIVE PRODUCER BACKERS!!!

This is why I fuck so heavy with Jellybox. Notice how they just pulled back and let an actual black person who been doing the knowledge come in and speak. It really is that simple, y'all.

"but at what cost?"

So, was the courtroom artist showing his bias by drawing her like a smug supervillain who just got away with murder, or does she just have Resting Evil Bitch Face?

I really hope this game is, unlike StarFox, one of those "Rebuilt from the ground up with liberties taken expanding the levels and gameplay" kind of remakes. If only because I played the bejesus out of the original to the point where I still have it memorized and it won't feel fresh otherwise.

It is now officially my 48th birthday🎂

I wanna see ANOTHER remake of Starfox, but... ... the original SNES Starfox. Fuck 64. I wanna hear the original soundtrack remastered, and the gibberish voice clips of my teammates while space dogfighting in glorious 4K. youtu.be/q1B9TbLfVaE?...

"Shut up, nerd."

I may have spoken too soon. They e-mailed me some brochures with information about preparing for the operation, and one of them reads "So, You're Getting Hip Replacement Surgery." ... Gonna have to call them on Monday. 🫤

I was hoping to catch up on some sleep during this bus ride down to the townships... but the apparent failure of society to teach people to BLOW YOUR GODDAM NOSE instead of loudly sniffling every 10 seconds (combined with it being allergy season) means I'll instead be supressing intrusive thoughts.

I lucked out! Was told I'd have to wait six-to-twelve months for the knee surgery. Got a call this morning confirming it's gonna be in one.

Hey y'all. I know we're coming up on a new month and that means rent is due. Most of us are already struggling pretty hard, and I know nobody likes seeing these links asking for financial help. Regardless, details are in the link. Thank you for your time. 🙏🏾 ko-fi.com/phlashdark/g...

I'm really NOT nostalgic for the 90s I grew up in... but I do think the inherent cynicism and the distrust of moral crusaders that characterized that decade really prepared me to navigate modern callout culture and saved me from a LOT of embarrassment.

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

It was... competent. It adequately tied up the story and checked all the boxes it was supposed to, but it lacked a lot of the bite, surprise and shock factor that the show became known for. Not nearly as bad as some other series finales I've seen in recent years, though.

The theme song to #She-Ra playing over and over again in my head is what's sustaining me at work, today. youtu.be/wR65P73X5GI?...

Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance, and Cocaine.

Delayed bus, broken down bus, rideshare glitch... God seems so intent on stopping me from making this doctor's appointment that after dragging my aggravated self to the clinic with minutes to spare, I'm eyeballing that unaccompanied backpack in the waiting room like it's an IED about to go off.

"If it were any more real... it wouldn't be a game!" -A video game from 1987.

I don't really mind the new art style, but if they're going in that direction, then they should redo the voice work and dialogue because it's jarring that these realistic and serious-looking characters speak with these goofy-ass Saturday morning cartoon voices.

Did some yardwork for my dad, this weekend. The neighbor's dog was determined to stop me.

This person name splinterwolfoxkarate on Instagram has stolen my works (and may others) and crop out my name and has blocked me please report this account hes also using AI to create other ppl oc hes stole for his account PLEASE REPORT

Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The protagonist is such an unlikable shit that I used to root for Principal Rooney. Even now, knowing what the actor was busted for, I'm still torn.

Man, the perfume industry is just as much of a scam as the wine industry. I just sampled an $800 bottle of cologne, and it tasted exactly the same as the cheap shit.

This is 'prolly going to be a huge mistake, but I've firmly decided I'm gonna try to learn how to paint #gunpla on a model I've already assembled about 1/3 of.

"Y'know, I think I'll try something new with my hair today." -Me, this morning. "You look like a lesbian." -A lesbian, just now.

Got my gams 3D scanned and modeled at the doctor's, today. Even had those little white sugar cubes attached to my leg. Also, my jeans appear to be melting into the floor.

Good news... turns out that despite my best efforts, I'm doing everything right.

“People need to be nicer to each other online” and “people need to develop thicker skin because it’s not normal or healthy to get upset at everything you don’t agree with” are two statements than can and should coexist actually

Had a brief panic yesterday because the difference between an orthotist and an orthopedist suddenly became very important.

Excuse me - pay attention to my drawing. Its beary educational - much learnding!

governor abbott took away our rainbow crosswalks but we replaced them with much more visible rainbow sidewalks, and some businesses have followed suit (one added rainbow exterior stairs)

It's insanely frustrating to watch the same people who lived through Dubya's Iraq war 20 years ago falling for the exact same shit that everyone now agrees was a huge mistake... ... but then again, it only took 8 years for everyone to forget 2016 and make the exact same mistake again.

No, I don't automatically like certain characters or shows just because I know their very existence drives ultra-conservative reactionaries into froth-mouthed insanity. ... But it helps.

My co-workers discussing Trans-Visibility-Day: "Do I wish I had been born a woman? Yes. ...Am I too lazy to do anything about it? Also yes."

This morning has been a Rube Goldberg-esque series of irritations and setbacks, culminating in "... You might need knee surgery after all."

I really miss you guys, but REALLY not planning any trips down South, now. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I work with a Brazilian immigrant who has become a fanatically patriotic Canadian. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 She loudly announces she's going to have a CANADIAN hot dog for lunch. States that any guy she dates has to be both hot and CANADIAN. Rude customer? Points her finger and yells "YOU'RE NOT A REAL CANADIAN!"
