One of the benefits of a cross country / International move is getting to learn about the exciting technological advances in Billy bookshelves over the last 10 years.

happy pride, any excuse to post my favorite poem

Last night in Colorado - AJR at Red Rocks Amphitheater.

The move is going GREAT

I haven't even finished unpacking and I already fucking loathe Telus with the fire of a thousand suns. I feel like a Canadian already.

speaking of latitude, I feel like this map should be general knowledge.

The mightiest of moving tools.

Portrait of a move. (Not a still life so much as a still-surviving life.)

It me

Renaissance Festival for Father's Day.

Them: how's the move/packing going? How are you holding up? Me:

One good thing about Trump — and there’s a phrase you’ll rarely hear me say — is he may have finally killed the automatic export of American culture to the rest of the globe.

Canada Caravan hooooii

"It's good to be blessed with work." I've got a month of feeling REAL blessed coming UP. Our first U-Haul truck knows where we're going.

A predator is using the power of our justice system to further target one of his sexual assault victims. And not a single person thinks that move will even dent his support among GOP leaders.

Gonna send an apology letter to Lucasfilm HQ

Listened to this at the same time my son and I got to Young Lief 7: The Casino. So, SO perfect.

My youngest daughter's birthday party turned the entryway into a Converse ad.

Them: You just need to recharge your social battery. My social battery:

No reparations for Black Americans. No student loan forgiveness for folks struggling w/ debt. No UBI for working Americans. But reparations, treason forgiveness, and UBI for Jan 6th insurrectionists who attacked Congress. Got it. [joycevance.substack.com]

I encourage you to reach late middle age by any means necessary if for no other reason than to find out just how primo the naps are. No matter how much you like naps now you will not believe it

They cut school lunches and THIS is the bipartisan school funding bill they come up with? Fuck you.

Okay what the hell is this fashion trend? Buy the right size pants. The fitting room is free.

Something-something 10000 monkeys with typewriters #wtf #thisaintshakespeare

All these fucking guns and no one can aim.

We generally keep our home pretty tidy, but there is a certain level of "keeping your gut sucked in at all times" to listing/showing a house that just... wearies a fella.

1. Image is not mine. 2. I know there's a grocer's apostrophe - the alt text for the image notes it with [sic] 3. The incorrect apostrophe makes the whole thing better, imo

The headlines says "trampled to death," but the body of the article says "ambushed and killed," which is the kind of energy I'm looking for in these situations.

We are a hobby of temporarily inconvenienced Elminsters.

Pretty good house for a big family. (I like it, anyway.) www.compass.com/homedetails/...

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

So much of my frustration right now is from other people's priorities utterly misaligned to my own. Something hyper-critical? My contact is on a permanent siesta. Something I'm mildly curious about? My contacts react like I'm covered in BBQ sauce and they are STARVING.

Session 09 of our co-op #Ironsworn: #Starforged #ttrpg campaign. We pause to trade with an old and deeply unsettling acquaintance. What starts as a resupply turns into one of the biggest lore sessions of the campaign so far. "A new faction appears! The Tethered." youtu.be/fuz3O9EGgEk

I wish the unending parade of little annoying roadblocks that come up as part of moving to Canada would hurry up and teach me some goddamn patience

Forgot my headphones. Going to have to ignore everybody at work without any mechanical assistance, like some kind of caveman.

When you toss and turn so much your dog actually growls at you.

One pound of ground beef now costs more on average than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour.

Got a letter yesterday from my insurance company informing me that they were canceling coverage of our home insurance effective at the end of May. the reason that they gave was a hail damage claim from 10 years ago and another claim for frozen pipes... But there's a plot twist!

Eventually, there comes a time in every US corporate employee's life when you encounter someone on a business call while they are using the toilet. However. Today marks the first time I've run into someone who took the next step and said to themselves "Speakerphone mode should be FINE."

My son has started to refer to his grandfather as "Even Older Dad" #midnightburger

75 of these happened in the last 81 days (when I learned about this achievement). #totallyfine

kind of amazing that everything trump does can be understood through the lens of narcissism and it's related needs (e.g., self aggrandizement, revenge, domination, grievance validation). i don't think any character has been so one-dimensional, not even wile e coyote or scrooge mcduck

My mental state these days
