1. Stop assuming people announce all their activism on social media. 2. Stop demanding people announce all their activism on social media. 3. Stop deriding people for not announcing all their activism on social media. 4. Dunking on people on social media isn't activism and isn't praxis.

Signing off for a while. Mental health reset.

Time to unwind and continue my annual rewatch of InuYasha before bed. And yes, I’ll be leaving it on if I fall asleep. Nothing like waking up at 2am to the InuYasha outro!

Annual replay begins now.

I’ve never seen a meme so accurate.

Stand with us, or fall against us. Flippers up.

In this house, me and mine stand with the penguins of Heard Island. #FlippersUp

It’s Friday. And I’m thinking tonight will be a good night for pizza, video games, and some anime. The ol classic Friday night. Therapeutic to say the least. Who else is up for joining?

InuYasha and FFIX. I am perfectly fine living in 2003.

My Animal Crossing island just got hit with 10% tariffs

I’m not political. And I’m aware there are far, far worse things going on in the world. But…a 24% tariff on all imported goods from Japan? The time is now, fellow anime, gaming, Gunpla enthusiasts. The beacons are lit. Our nerdom calls for aid.

Gaming domino effects are real. Been on Trine a lot today but it has me wanting to run the Torchlight series again. I love it when I get that itch to just game game game.

One of the more fun things about gaming is rediscovering a game you haven’t played in years. Today, for me, that game is Trine. So much fun. Relaxing in its own way. Having a blast with this title again.

Kids are watching a SpongeBob movie and the cameos so far are a bit wild. Keanu Reeves and Snoop Dog were not on my SpongeBob Movie Cameo Bingo Card. Danny Trejo, however, makes perfect sense. And I love it.

I’d be mad not to, right? Right. Sunday plans are set it seems.

Yall, I’m so excited my six year old son has found his first non-gaming nerd hobby. Don’t get me wrong. I love gaming with him. But tabletop gaming is super fun, too. I’m over here scouring sites for deals on Bakugan, trying to pump up our little collection lol. Being a nerd dad is the best

So, Bakugan is definitely taking over this household. Never been a big fan but my son is absolutely in love with it. So here I am. Learning how it works now!

Anyone feel like visiting my island today (or vice versa) on #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons today? I’ve been placed on bed rest by the wife. Been pushing myself too hard lately and it seems I’ve suffered a setback in my broken ankle recovery. So it’s ACNH today with some Spiritfarer thrown in.

230am. Up for the day. Sleep is becoming harder and harder to find. Time for a game or two I suppose. Games. Meds. Sleep Token. Quite a combo at this hour.

My son made a choice today. I’m not mad about it at all. I’m a nerd. His mother is a nerd. We just want him to find things that light up his own little nerd path in life.

Best $15 I’ve spent in a long time. Couldn’t resist. Love a local flea market.

Anyone on ACNH tonight, my island is open to all friends. Feel free to say hello. I’ll be on for a little while longer. Been up since 130am and exhaustion is chasing me down.

Let’s wind down the day with meds for the busted ankle and more adventures in Animal Crossing New Horizons. My island is always open to visitors. I hope you all had a great day. Feel free to say hello if you need someone to talk to about anything at all!

Are you even a parent if you don’t let your kids put Bluey stickers all over the boot you’re wearing to protect your broken ankle as it heals?

It’s a solid day for more Animal Crossing. Ankle is getting even more swollen and bruised. Long healing process ahead. ACNH is definitely the perfect therapy game for this injury recovery.

Without downloading new pics, where are you mentally

My six year old son loves Transformers and also wants to “build cool robots like daddy does”, so here we are. Time to begin his obsession with kit building.

RG 1/144 Gundam Epyon is finally complete. Always feels good to finish a build. #gunpla

Nothing wrong with a “I broke my ankle and this will make me feel better emotionally” purchase. #gunpla

I want to take a moment to thank scientists who helped create painkillers. They’re helpful at the moment, as my 85lb half lab/half German shepherd decided that my broken ankle was the perfect spot upon which to lay down. Nothing like searing pain to wake you up. Meds and ACNH to the rescue!

Anyone else still on ACNH these days? Always up for making new friends and visiting new islands. It’s been the perfect game while I begin the broken ankle healing process. #gaming #comfortgame #animalcrossing #animalcrossingnewhorizons #acnh #healing

Broken ankle = suave new footwear.

Busted ankle with a doctors note for “light duty and desk work” has its benefits. #gunpla #work

I survived the monstrous storms last night only to be taken out by my glass ankle this morning. Nothing like busting an ankle after stepping off a curb all wrong. My body is failing me as I stare down the age of 40.

Good morning! I live just about in the middle of the pink area in Alabama. This is going to be a fairly unfun day down here. Good thoughts and vibes are welcomed! Expecting one hell of a tornado outbreak today. This is where my training of growing up in Oklahoma comes in handy. Battle stations!

Update: I picked up Risk of Rain 2. Further update: I am AWFUL at this game. Cant even clear the first mission. How does one accomplish this seemingly insurmountable task??

Anyone pick up Risk of Rain 2? How is it? Worth the $25 on Switch? #gaming #RiskofRain2

Recently finished this fun build. #gunpla

Fellow #Gunpla enthusiasts who also live in Tornado Alley. Do you have contingency plans for protecting your built kits? Where I live is expecting to get one hell of a storm system come through this Saturday, so I am trying to figure a way to protect my built kits. Ideas?

Hear me out.

Not many feelings I detest more than the apathetic feeling of losing interest in all the things I love to do. Severe burnout and/or depression is horrendously draining.

Hope you’re all doing the best you can out there. Everything is fairly scary, but having friends here to talk to about the things we all love helps.

What is one to do when one has four conference calls on Teams scheduled in a day? Easy. Build a nice little HG 1/144 Gunpla kit. #gunpla
