A long holiday weekend just means more opportunities for my children to drive me up the wall.

and it's why just blocking them over here instead of fighting/quote dunking is the truly meanest & pettiest thing you can do to them. folks act like just blocking is some sort of act of maturity or being above it. SHIT NO, I'M SADISTICALLY TORTURING THEM WITH INVISIBILITY. They hate it SO MUCH.

This poptart bowl needs more poptarts.

Companies, schools, programs, they will all, every time, choose the shittiest and most useless man over the most brilliant and useful woman, because it doesn’t matter that she hasn’t done anything wrong: the moment he sexualizes her, she is A Problem.

I bought dogpile and another game today and all I've played all day is dogpile. Thanks @folly.studio !

This is such a good book! Great mystery and characters. I can't wait to read 100 books in this world.

The children and I have created alternate lyrics for "Santa is Coming for Us" in which Santa is absolutely coming for you omg watch out look behind you he's here right now Santa's coming for us He's gonna beat you up He'll take your lunch money And kick your butt Etc etc

Unfortunate that we have to say National Guard is here to help and isn't ICE and I'm glad he said it.

Metroid Prime 4 is very good and very pretty and causes me to stop blinking because I just want to look at all the things

What if I'm bad at everything but no one is mean enough to tell me

I think my favorite part about the Duck Detective games are the ridiculous facts on the loading screens. @duckdetective.bsky.social

I went to track my package on the UPS site and instead of loading the map it just loaded the page I was on in an iframe. I'm like in Inception

I don't know how the editor didn't catch how many times people sniffed in this book. Please choose a different word! I thought maybe everyone was on drugs!

I once read a book about a dragon and multiverses and got annoyed that they said that the mountain pass was open during the winter.

I think that some people need to stop posting / writing through things and instead try therapy.

Sometimes my cat sits at the top of the stairs and passing him is like

Obvious noise of two children running around upstairs Me: you're supposed to be in bed Children not in bed: we're choosing a book Rustling noises, tape being used, packaging being opened Me: IN BED!

I remember listening to an NPR interview with Watson (I think it was Science Friday) and he was so fucking sexist and racist that the interviewer called him out on it several times and cut him off.

/5 Ezra Kleinism would have me seek mutual values and agreement with the people who brought us to that, and who still support it. I would rather see them burn in Hell.

I always feel bad when I don't like a game that people like. It's a great looking game and I love a walking sim but it's not grabbing me. My kid likes watching me play this so I'll keep playing it as long as he's watching I guess?

...is it too early for Christmas decorations? is it too early for joy?

Look we all have our unguents ok

I love my small town setting off fireworks even after this terribly long Mariners game

A sport has too many players when one can play for the first time in the playoffs.

I had this exact same scarf Veronica Mars is wearing. Thanks 2000s

My kids have spirit week in a few weeks and one of the days is theme park/Disney day. Is Disney Hates Free Speech or Disney Capitulates to Government Involvement better for a first grader's t-shirt

My partner and I were riding bikes and he went downhill before me and warned me that there were slippery leaves at the curve at the bottom of the hill. I snapped back, "I've seen drivers ed videos" and then immediately slid and fell and ended up with a huge bruise on my thigh.

I'm having a lot of fun playing Deliver at all Costs. The story is weird and a car tried to throw me into a volcano while I was throwing it into a volcano. I keep forgetting I'm not car and can exit car because I've been playing truck games like Roadcraft anyway 10/10

Veronica Mars is a great show and I can't believe I never watched it. I'm only on episode...6 maybe but already there's been a rape handled like I would've, a trans parent accepted, and a same sex kiss that the camera moved away from okay it's still the early 2000s

Just going to try to put out more love to fill this vacuum of hate. That's all I can do.

My heart will never have enough room for people that don't care if children die in a classroom

I just don't sleep anymore

This is really silly but the setup music for the pixel buds is delightful

If I only could I'd make a deal with jaguars And get them to eat our faces

Really excited to read this and started planning out our vaccines for September It's September

I had a "fuck the patriarchy" summer and shaved my legs once. I highly recommend it to all who dgaf. I even went on a (PNW) beach vacation, into several pools in several states and it just did not matter.

I've been doing things for myself lately (showering, 3D printing things I need, buying myself clothes or earbuds or electronics for a project) and it feels really good. Taking care of yourself is good, y'all.

Happy Labor Day!

Someone please invent something that will tell me which smoke detector is beeping.

Things my dog ate yesterday: - about 5 oz of an iced vanilla latte - part of the lid of the iced vanilla latte cup - plastic ice cream tubs - a chicken salad with ranch - 3 pounds of apples - most of the plastic bag containing the apples - half a hot dog - dog food

What if no site allowed numbers in its usernames? Would bots just be random words strung together?

I asked my partner what brand power washer we have and he said "oh no is it recall Thursday?"

Hey AI companies, hire me and I'll help you plan and produce your video updates. This one is free: do a practice run and you'll see you need to move your teleprompter up!

One week until the kids go back to school. Every day I sympathize with my parents more and more.

My children don't want to eat at IKEA for dinner. Where did I go wrong

I saw 3 seals today. It was a really good day.

Finished This Princess Kills Monsters while on the beach. A really delightful, witty, laugh out loud book. Loved the characters and would happily read 100 books in this world. (Sorry for the crummy photo, I'm awake at 7am on vacation and everyone else is wisely asleep.)

I am very glad I was able to serve on a jury and that some of our rights survive.

Tried to talk to my partner about something that happened when I started the car today and ended up talking about when I "logged on to the car". I'm not having a good brain day.
