not to brag but i'm 7 beers in and spelled "sycophant" without trying

anyone else feel like nickelback must be relieved that kid rock is now the shitty butt rock act people dunk on?

it's incredibly frustrating that walmart and target have run out so many stores in this area. i don't want to shop there and i don't want to order from amazon. i'd like to shop local but i can't like... i need socks. why is there no other place i can go to buy socks?

When you've been alone all day and your RSD is raging no matter how much you remind yourself it isn't real, at least Godzilla has your back.

I went to a coffee place this afternoon that was run and staffed by queer people. I felt so much more at home there than anywhere I've been in the last 3-4 months. It's a weird thing for a cishet straight dude to say I guess but queer folx make things better.

I love how much love music there is in this area. I wish most of it wasn't covers. I'm dying to see a real punk/bc show.

At a moose Lodge to see a band in rural western PA. they're playing Avril Lavigne so clearly punk has made it mainstream since Avril invented punk.

i worked out with a buddy who was kind enough to include me in his home workout. it went well. tomorrow is legs and abs. legs are fine. abs are... terrifying. haha

forgot to post this up yesterday bc i haven't been on here as much. but here's another folk punk artist you should listen to and support this month and every month. blackguyfawkesmusic.bandcamp.com

consequently, if there are any punk, hardcore, or folk punk acts in the NWPA/Southen Tier NY area looking to play, please DM me.

made a joke to my friend about having his band play a show up here bc there is no punk scene. now i'm actively looking for bands and venues.

it's Black History Month, so go give support one of my favorite folk punks: adaywithoutlove.bandcamp.com/music

I have procured Texas hots. Be jealous.

Fully medicated for the first time in months. Hope I don't annoy the fuck out of the people who now think I'm chill. Adderall really is one hell of a drug. Gotta love that ADHD life.

i've not listened to a lot of crass but this line from the insert of "yes sir, i will" has been cropping up in my mind for years.

there is little that brings me more pleasure than a new set of strings on a guitar. it may sound like garbage when I play but it's a prettier kind of garbage

Hell yeah, I fuck with AI I fuck with Abolishing Ice

i've only been listening to bad religion for a little over a decade but this song remains my favorite www.youtube.com/watch?v=PR_P...

i've been playing really a lot of BTD6. now i want something different. should i get back into enter the gungeon? somehow all the other games i really want to play i can't run on my machine. i really need to get a new one

did a voice chat with my sister and the niblings. i love talking to them but the camera is not flattering at all. xD i'm getting old as shit

ran out of anxiety meds and haven't found a doctor yet. that means i've been playing guitar so much my stupid bursitis is acting up.

i think the internet collectively owes kathy griffin an apology for the fallout from the pic with the fake trump head

it's been like 20 years but i have someone using the standard evangelical tactics trying to save me. like, i'm actually having to stop and think about my responses because i don't have their script as well memorized anymore. i did drop "apokatastasis" and send him a scholarly article about why

been talking to a few folks and there may not be a room or need for a food distro near me. apparently local homeless encampments were busted up last year and people may have moved on but maybe a hot food distro would work. still, i'm leaning toward a skill share group and maybe a reading group.

thinking of ways i can be the sort of person to wear this shirt and have no one question it. femmefindsatl.com/products/rac...

forgot to post this on friday but i at least actually got a 5x5 this week. haha

Cannot stress enough that you can just do stuff. You don't need permission. You can just do stuff because it needs to be done by someone.

I estimate I do 200-300% more doom scrolling now that I live alone. I need to start reading again or something just to give my mind a break.

I was incredibly disappointed that they didn't have apes of the state on touch tunes so I could play it at the bar last night

they pour rye a lot heavier handed here than i'm used to. hoo boy am i glad my friends knew to drop me at home

ran into a friend from hs at the bar tonight. she is now married to a woman and i got an enormous lore dump from the people back in the day. going home again is wild af y'all

Lunch was awesome. It was nice to spend time with someone that shares my political leanings. A lot of my family are liberals but many are conservative (even if they've more or less abandoned MAGA afaict) so being able to openly and easily talk about issues was refreshing.

the thing about not buying salty snacks (stupid bp) is that there are no salty snacks in the apartment when i want to eat salty snacks in my apartment

i stg i owned gunfire reborn on one service or other. now i can't find it. must have been pulled with no notice.

5x5 for this past week

i've had four glasses of red wine so of course i'm trolling chuds on facebook

Just going to repost this one from @theoatmeal.bsky.social

tomorrow i'm having lunch with a hs friend i haven't seen in like 20 years. pretty stoked. she knows the lay of the land wrt groups i might be interested in working with around here so that's a bonus

i'm feeling the push to start a fnb group in this small, rural area i'm in. leading something like this is outside my wheelhouse, i'm more of a box carrier. gonna have to talk to some people from the old crew about getting started.

i really want to figure out how to do this song with an acoustic guitar. damn it's good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG1i...

current listening and also my current frame of mind

if you're sharing ai slop and doubling down on it when people call it out then you're not someone i want to follow on here

whether Renee Good was trying to run down the ice officer (she wasn't) or fleeing, her actions were justified. fuck ice

thinking through something here: i regularly see people misattribute feelings and motivations to christianity that are foreign to my experience. particularly i am thinking of how it absorbs cultural symbols and then local populations use them in their religious expression.

they're running a chaos mod on Halo for AGDQ. 18 year old me would have loved crushing this.

walk accomplished. she almost ran into traffic bc she saw another dog but we made it safely home.

The pup wants to walk but we have to wait until all the after work traffic clears. She does not understand this but it will inevitably lead to her wanting to turn around by the time we get to the end of the block. Frustrating.

i can't believe AGDQ is in pittsburgh right after i moved away. ugh
