2025 is honestly a terrible year already and I am compensating for it by going to more conventions and concerts. Society may be crumbling but the @dropkickmurphys.com are still there for me.

Well. Fuck today.

Uhhhh. That was it, THE critical role. #criticalrole

Oh. They’re getting EVERYONE into one place. This is gonna hurt. #criticalrole

Going to get into as much of the #criticalrole finale tonight as possible. They’re leading off as the Mighty Nein and I’m already in the feels.

I also saw my shadow this morning. I hope it doesn’t mean we need to put up with six more weeks of that attitude of yours.

It’s a weird flex to wait years between conversations with someone , just to send them pissy messages about Hillary Clinton on a Saturday night. Or so I’d think.

The key is to be so annoying on Facebook that the official Drumpf page deliberately refuses to follow you. It takes effort, but it’s worth it in the end.

You could watch the inauguration today. Or, hear me out, you could go to the nearest zoo, smuggle in a pound of uncooked bacon in your pockets, and see which large predatory animal busts out of its enclosure and chases you down first. As your wellbeing goes, it would be a lateral move at worst.

Downloading Baldurs Gate III so I can spend tomorrow pretending I’m defeating evil with eclectic weirdo friends and probably a cool sword.

Hey LinkedIn, please don’t email me telling me to say happy birthday to a former classmate who died over a year ago. It’s… not the optimal way to start the week.

Had every intention of actually working from my office downtown today. The additional snow and the city of Topeka’s almost comical lack of interest in plowing residential neighborhoods in the middle of town said otherwise.

Oh gross, it’s my first full five day work week in nearly a month

If you feel like you need to go anywhere in this blizzard… maybe just go to whatever whimsical lands a book you have on hand will take you.

Had the convo about starting a commune with all my friends again. This remains the dream.

Post your favorite Star Trek character but wrong answers only

I have less than an hour until I begin the long holiday weekend, no pressing tasks to deal with, and some undiagnosed something-or-another urge to start learning unusual latke recipes.

Based on the trailer alone, I think the new Superman movie might be the Bluesky to Man of Steel’s X/twitter

The water was out at my office this morning, so no coffee. Work replacing something on the water line was right outside my window and loud. So massive headache. I credit the reintroduction of caffeine to my soul this afternoon with fixing said headache even more than the reduction in noise.

I identify heavily with cartoon witches because omg leave me alone with my soup this is why I moved to the forest in the first place

I feel like it’s relevant that it snowed the day after I bought a Fleet Foxes vinyl.

I haven’t been posting much because I’ve been preoccupied with a not great situation in actual life. But here’s a sleepy dog for you all.

I may be cringe,, but at least I’m still wracked with doubt about it at every step of the way

Bluesky is great so far, but I think I need to put in the effort to find the unhinged D&D wing that must surely exist.

Please support bookshops. Independent bookshops. They are so wonderful. Yes you pay a little more. But I think of it as paying for the experience. The experience of browsing. And that oh-so-important bookshop smell. 🖖 Fu** big corporations.

Didn’t think this would be a great game for the Chiefs going in. Looking like I was right early on. Meh, happens.

Today was…. Bad. So yes, I’m getting bubble tea and a couple of records. This counts as therapy.

Prerequisite “I have a cute dog” tax

Well I’ve been on here for fifteen whole minutes and haven’t seen anything that comes off as… Let’s say… “goose steppy.” So that’s a good start.

Alright nerds, I’ve joined the influx. Can this be the outlet for random thoughts, unnecessary live sports commentary, and freaking out over something happening on Critical Role that I lost when I quit Xitter?
