Well, the universe played a trick on the kiddo today. Baby's first court date. Traffic court but he's high anxiety. Drove him out there and was on site in case he needed something. The ticket had the wrong court address printed on it.

Impossible burger meat was nasty in the brew. I flew too close to the sun.

Damn it. Trying to stay on top of things at work from my phone in the court parking lot and just got the “you need to mask more” signal from the boss.

It’s very awkward to be in a position to not know how to help your adult kids grow up because it was just abuse and neglect in your own upbringing.

Taking the kid to (traffic) court. Woo boy, the day is gettin real a bit earlier than I’d like.

True stories from my life: long long ago my partner at the time and I were packing up the car to visit her parents for Christmas and a stray dog presented on the doorstep. Like literally walking to the car, open door, dog is sitting there staring at us.

I googled some nutrition info on something earlier and it defaulted to the shitty AI. It started with the obligatory wrong answer then followed it up with “If you’re asking about (exact thing I bought) available at (store I was at and in the exact location) then it’s this.”

Sweet potatoes in the witch's brew was...not optimal.

I can't remember where I read this, but I once read autism described as fundamentally anti-capitalist because you're incapable of measuring things by someone else's value. The things you're told are valuable aren't to you and vice versa. And I kind of agree.

This is the closest that Iran has ever come to getting nuclear weapons, but not because of any material issues. Eventually Trump is going to lie about an agreement that doesn't exist, and once that happens every Republican is going to ignore any evidence Iran is pursuing nuclear.

You know what. I decided to give them a try and Impossible Nuggets are pretty close to real nugs in taste. Color me surprised.

I will never forgive City of Villains for making me change my character’s name from “Erectile Dysfunction” 20 years ago. I gave you people gold.

🔥 @redstateupdate.bsky.social (MURFREESBORO): “I ain’t sayin’ there wasn’t fraud in government before Trump — but I Guarantee-Damn-Tee you there’s a shitload more now. ‘Fraud’ to Republicans means a Black person/Somali immigrant is doing it- or an undocumented immigrant is in the hospital.”

What kind of deal could Iran even make now? The US has clearly demonstrated we cannot be negotiated with and that nuclear weapons are the only thing we respect. So what is the point? All that’s on the table is a deal we won’t honor and they can’t honor because we’re unreliable and unprincipled.

Got a bunch of new veg for the witch's brew. Taking a long bath with my new soap in a bit. Hell of a day off.

Modest proposal: All politicians and corporate officers must, as a condition of their position, be attended by a monitor during all decision making who’s sole job is to say “God Damn, Son. No, that’s dumb as hell” when needed.

I’m tryin, Ringo. I’m tryin REAL hard.

I cannot believe they haven’t rebooted Ask Jeeves as a delivery app. Jeeves is a fuckin butler y’all.

Looks like Don Jr should have told papa it was ok to steal the silverware if he wanted him to show up.

You know, we actually don’t have to treat Cuba like a bitter ex-boyfriend. I get it. We were close way way back in the day and it stung when Cuba decided it just wasn’t that into us.

Going through some old pics and came across this real warning sign from my travels that tickled me. Presented for general use. Caution: This will blow up in your fucking face.

A modest proposal. 1.7 billion a year for each victim of ICE to a cause of their estate's choosing. First year goes to the families and children they left behind. Deducted from the DHS budget, for every year they had left to the average age of death. Every year of life stolen by the trump admin.

What I’m getting from the news lately is the wealthy will set money on fire for the stupidest most long shot bullshit peddled by the most obvious dipshit con man, but only if it hurts people. It has to involve hurting people, all other profit is secondary.

Great, someone pressed the big red button at work. Now I gotta be all pissed off. Fuckin with my zen.

Time for another Siddhartha or Demian read through I suppose.

It's oddly comforting that there is actually a very good chance Trump just steals the IRS money. These dipshits celebrating because they think they're getting a payday really need to research his history on actually paying contractors.

It's kind of weird that there are a flood of posts now that start with "I've never ordered doordash, etc" and 100% of the time they make a point that says the whole post could have been shortened to "I'm a fucking asshole." It's the "I don't even own a TV" for a new era. No one gives a fuck.

Substituting TVP crumbles into the witch’s brew was a success.

Kid 2 pulled a knife on kid one. Everyone is ok but I guess this day could be going better.

My socially awkward brain is fucked. Guy at the counter was just being personable and said “You gonna enjoy those chicken tenders?”. I am aware he’s just being chatty and the right answer is “yes!” So why does my brain vapor lock and my first thought was…

It’s weird that Dune got so popular but you never hear about how later in the series the guy with perfect prescience decided women had to control the entire military and civil government to keep it from becoming predatory…

Feeling pissed enough at half the country to dig up this blast from the past.

Experiment with home mixed laundry detergent went pretty well today. So I guess that's one less thing to get scammed over. Good day.

Fewer plagiarism machines. More Rube Goldberg machines.

It’s interesting how the little things come out as you finally start to deconstruct programming when you’re raised in the worst aspects of a male culture. Fuck it, buying the “ladies” deodorant. I do not want to smell like Baja Blizzard Cumshot or Burnt Mahogany Throat Punch. Baby steps

Someone needs to tell the press the answer to this total victory bullshit line is “Do a flyover”. Grab them big orange balls and order them to load up you and your whole god damn bloodline for a flyby of Tehran. Take your cabinet and Elon with you.

Hey, so, the 1988 John Carpenter film "They Live" is free to watch on YouTube. No, the irony isn't lost on me.

A note from SC. I was shown Roots in elementary school, and for a too brief period of time the face of slavery’s victims, the person who taught me to love books, and the smartest science fiction engineer in the universe where the same fuckin Black guy. The GOP can eat shit. We will stop them.

Goblin life: I'm currently scolding a dog and a cat that they got their share of my baked chicken already.

I guess I'm a weird crock pot evangelist now. So be it.

Of all the things I love about this cat one of the best things is she responds to “Please don’t do that, maam”

I don’t understand the extreme aversion to ketchup on hotdogs. It’s delicious and I won’t be hearing otherwise.

Driving to home town to visit mom. Time to buckle up for this fuckin roller coaster.

I’m thinking in the next iteration we add a quarterly review for politicians. Popular vote. 51% no confidence means probation. 2 quarters in a row means recall election. A recall means all appointments are immediately reversed, including courts.

Good stew today. It's the little things.

It’s a weighted blanket and cat sitting on me kind of day.
