So I've been dealing with an antibiotic resistant sinus and ear infection for the better part of 4 weeks at this point. My left ear has been partially blocked this whole time and the increasing pressure in my skull makes me wonder how much more a brain can handle before it goes squish.

So, I did more at #OriginsGamingConvention this year than I have in many years past. My kids were running the show, and I was joyful to help them participate. But I missed meeting @legendsofavantris.bsky.social folk. I'm exhausted. But cannot shout out @windmillgames.bsky.social enough. TY All.

Sobbing in a t.j Maxx parking lot is not how I wanted to spend today but here we are.

This just came in the mail. I'm thrilled to read #TheKingsWeaver by @novaecaelum.bsky.social !!!

Youngest kid: Asks a question about scabs forming, and immediately gets distracted when I try to answer. @joeauerbach.bsky.social : Maybe you could hold their attention if you had hip sound effects and were a character called Skibidi-Platlets.

I don't know how I missed The Dead Zone in all of my King adventures...but damn.

Okay this is something I've been wondering for years. Do children experience pain physically differently than adults, or we just get accustomed to pain as we grow up? When kids get soap in their eyes it burns like fire and they scream and cry. When I do, it burns, but it's a mild annoyance.

To celebrate our upcoming Vampire the Masquerade Campaign, Sanguine Arch, we're going to release the player curated PC playlists of our Kindred ahead of each prologue episode! Enjoy Lia's playlist here @mythicalmagpie.bsky.social : www.patreon.com/posts/introd...

Today is #freecomicbookday. I decided to make something for the #comicbookartists at ours. It's my first #zine. But also if there is an artist in your life feel free to share this with them as well. If you are an artist, please take this to heart.

I'm so excited to share this with everyone! I'm participating in a Vampire the Masquerade LARP with @symphonyhorror.bsky.social at the helm. My intro will air on May the 6th in Twitch!

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senator Cory Booker gathered on the steps of the U.S. Capitol this morning to launch a sit-in protest.

Mr. Man won't look me in the eyes because he has to wait another 10 minutes for dinner.

Anything to avoid paying taxes. This is more than what they quoted EM would end world hunger.... I cannot understand how these people sleep at night.

@bobbymoynihan.bsky.social my kids are trying to kill me this morning. But thank you for this moment. As someone with the occasional anxiety, and with very few words of dialogue, this scene makes me cry every time.

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

You absolutely are. Hail the Traveler. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world, Mad Martigan. #valkilmer

All of these updates come across like Daily Planet push alerts about the arrival of a new superhero in Metropolitham.

He did it. He beat Strom Thurman's record. @booker.senate.gov still going.

I think I just heard @booker.senate.gov's live mic say he's shooting for 25 hours...

Longest speaking filibuster ever was 24 hours, 18 minutes by Strom Thurmond in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957. In a few hours, that record will be shattered by Sen. Cory Booker, a Black man, laying out the case for saving democracy from an aspiring despot.

In one hour, @booker.senate.gov will have beat the record for Senate filibuster. It has been giving me hope today that some in power want to be the change. They want to talk about our values and what tax cuts to the super wealthy would cost us as a country.

In 2 hours and 33 minutes, @booker.senate.gov will break the record for filibuster. I hope he can feel us cheering him on from all corners of democracy.

I just called to thank him. I'm not his constituent, but am so moved by his work up to today, but the last 21 hours have been so inspiring. www.booker.senate.gov/contact

I think he's 19 hours into the filibuster. To say I am moved, is an understatement. Now we need to get the rest of the party on board. www.youtube.com/live/rCUK2Vb...

Senator Booker already had my admiration, now he has our eyes and ears. Thank you for putting yourself, mind and body, on the line. We're listening.

So this is completely anecdotal, and I suppose at some point in my life I had been given steroids before this.... However, the 6-day steroid course I was put on for a pinched nerve has helped me exponentially with my ADHD symptoms. It is a marked improvement in my ADHD symptoms.
