Spoiler warning: f1 I said earlier this season (along with many other people) that McLaren was going to FAFO if they continued to say papaya rules in public but prefer Lando when the rubber met the road. It would potentially leave the door open to Max…and look where we are now.

Ah, I see we signed up for another episode of “I Stayed Up Later Than I Wanted and My Team Didnt Even Decide to Win: A Brittany Story” without my knowledge

Word is that ICE is in Greenville. We keep each other safe. Here are some tips from people in Chicago: www.reddit.com/r/baltimore/...

Last saved meme is your moral philosophy

FIRE SALE 2025. December 1 - 3. 10AM Eastern. A preposterous amount of sketches, drawings, and studies from my flat files. 🔥

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Cascadian Gamers’ support for Extra Life is one of the highlights of the fall to me. Fun streams, cool prizes, and fundraising for a very worthy cause. If you can spare some funds, it’s definitely worth it!

I will never understand the people who can look at this and shrug.

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

And THIS is why I said at least every captain needed to speak and be unified. Guess who is gonna get the hate from the Fox News crowd now? Sarah Gorden, that's who. The only Black captain. Okay, going back to work now.

Have some joy in the form of Vinny trying on the sea pancake costume we got several years ago for Toby (RIP my big beautiful boy) - who had about twice Vinny’s body weight. Pictured with Vinny is his favorite toy, Sting Crosby the stingray. I will also share a photo of Toby in it as well.

It’s not a whole new game, but I will take all the ACNH I can get!

About to find out how many “defying gravity” videos it takes to counteract a singular “for forever” (dear evan hansen) watch on a dreary monday morning

Does anyone else’s dog sleep like rigor mortis is setting in? It’s not always like this, but Vinny does end up sleeping in a cheerleading pike at multiple points in the day

Help, I got the new pokemon game but cant progress until I pick a starter 😅😂 (not tepig)

Tonight’s reminder that maybe we are Too Online: listening to @oddevan.com have to explain who the hat man is (after offhandedly referencing him) to an older neighbor 😂

Walked into the last day of my freshman eng class to find we didnt have a final exam the next week, but a paper. Due that day. Barely started, I was given a 24 hr extension, but I would lose a full letter grade. Only academic allnighter I pulled. AI could never make me as proud as that B- does.

I need someone to invent a search engine to parse whether a movie plot was a hallmark movie or a fever dream

C4! Let’s go @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social #CriticalRole

thanks to working with @gains-skeets.bsky.social, one of my nonscale goals has been achieved: being able to pick up dogs (specifically ours) easily for maximum photos/snuggles 🥰💪🏼

This week’s proxy giveaway is: KPop Demon Hunters! Made these yesterday, hope you like them. Share and be following me next Sunday, September 14 for a chance to win!

(CW: shitty political text) Received this today, saying Nancy Mace, of all people, is too liberal-especially on trans issues and gun control. Yes, THAT Nancy Mace, who’s said abhorrent things about trans people. I have to wonder how anyone could truly believe that. Is the base that gullible?

First regular season bills game starts a little after our neighborhood pool (historically my “third place” during the summer) shuts down for the year. As with a lot these days, holding joy and sadness in both hands.

Finally got to play my “raining cats and dogs” commander deck last weekend, but it suffers from the classic “not enough included tokens” precon issue. I think I am going to make some of my own featuring pets of mine and my friends. Anyone have places they like having MTG tokens printed?

i hear @jsanderswhite.com hollerin from here

Lance Stroll is a has bin, as in he unsurprisingly has binned it again.

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI: At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

vinny bids all of you a happy international dog day if you celebrate 🩶 and sends you good tuesday night vibes even if you dont

I’m 36 today, somehow 18 years past 18. My 18th birthday found me a few weeks from starting college, and I got my first tattoo. 36 has me trying to recover from crashing after doing the job of 2+ people at work solo last week, and snuggling with a new pup. Maybe I should get another tattoo too?

we have left where my horse brain can go.

There are a few blogs I checked religiously and downloaded music from; recently I realized most of those blogs are defunct and the download links are broken. Rarely have I felt older or more verklempt.

Playing video games while the boys nap (@oddevan.com in our bed, Vinny beside me on the couch). It’s August and sub 80°. While there is a lot going on both in life and the world at large, this moment is nice.

Telling the new puppy offhand not to “phineas gage” himself while carrying a stick vertically, then having to explain the reference, is big former psych major problems

When you’re mean to me on the internet, this is who you’re being mean to (we got a dog over the weekend, everyone please say hi to vinny)

Harlem Renaissance Literature, my first English class freshman yr. We read The Souls of Black Folk, Quicksand and Passing, and several other things. Dr. Chevalier was amazing and challenged us. It was fantastic and eye opening, and I sometimes wish I had taken her up on the English major suggestion.

Pulled my 3rd god pack in Pokemon TCG Pocket while I was mostly just trying to get hourglasses for the release this week 😅

At the Waffle House selecting my waffle from the tank like at a fancy lobster restaurant

Up the Triumph!

Shoutout to the guardian in my Tower instance with the name “Donkey, Kell of Dragons” because that’s the Shrek/Destiny crossover I didnt know I needed today

Random stream in ‘12 showed the goal log/smoke/TA. I was hooked. A friend who moved from Portland scarfed me in 2015. I officially joined+dove in headfirst. Made logos/stickers/patch, put together a watch party for TACAP. Sadly, FO put further strain/distance in this long distance relationship.

Signing out for my first for-fun multiday pto in…a year? more? after almost 2 straight months of handling a week’s worth of tickets every day

Never doubt @oddevan.com’s obsession for Sonic, or my love for him.

On the site at noon, immediately wait time is “more than an hour”. Pining for the print on demand days, but then WOTC couldnt print their own money 🙄

Not to brag, but I am suddenly very popular today with commenter bots. Specifically they are extremely interested in my 2019 blog about what the first @gvltriumph.bsky.social season meant to me 🥲

Chris Thile tells a story of recording “Doubting Thomas” IIRC, he was asked “what about the ones that God didnt keep safe?” and was haunted by that. If a musician can feel the weight of that question, but those in power who loudly claim Christianity dont, there’s a problem with the faith.

if there is any sense of good in this world, ao3 will come back soon and all my bookmarked fics abandoned by their authors will magically have new chapters

Found out the stupid bill passed via a text from my congressman, boasting about voting yes and then asking for how I would have voted. Great way to confirm you haven’t been listening to your constituents, my guy.

Without downloading any new pics, where are you at mentally?

While a lot feels out of my control, there is still work to be done and good to celebrate. Ending Pride with calls to my senators on behalf of many whom I love, and now joy (dropout, yt, and sleep) beside my beloved.

Absolutely this had consequences. If only someone had known this would happen.
