It’s fascism cancer metastasizing not a fascism pimple we can pop.

Where’s the trash gremlin dating app? Everyone on Hinge seems to have their shit together (I know they’re lying but they double down) and I’m not sure Tinder is viable.

Well quitting sweet treats isn’t going well but we are still holding the line at No Soda.

The spotter’s job is that if you die because you fail your set to make sure and add more weight so when they find you they think you’re a beast.

Wait, really?

Attending marriages, seeing family have kids, and here I am 41 and living with my grandparents. I feel so behind but also do I really even want those things? Could I ever even afford a house? A kid? What’s my life going to look like at 50 or 60?

I’m considering unhinging a bit. What do y’all think?

Cursed, but not like, in an interesting way.

Sigh. Grandma tryin to convert me to catholicism again.

Oh! It’s depression thoughts o’clock.

*standing on the shore gazing out to sea* *The wind blows, rustling clothing* *I turn with a tear in my eye* “I just want to simp for someone who’s going to simp back.”

Okay I’m gonna try implementing Rule #2, No Sweet Treats and see how it goes. It’s a dangerous rule in our current circumstances. But Rule #1 No Soda has held strong for at least a week.

Train called the “Trundling Fortress” was this idea I came up with last night. Thinking about it today I had a vision of a rail yard and thought maybe a dragon being involved in its operation. So now I guess I have an autistic ass dragon who collects and runs life size trains. ::shrug emoji::

“Ian, why do you put trains in all your adventures?” I’m quite fond of robust public transportation.

Suffer no kings to live or rule.

Last night, Trump signed a new EO basically declaring himself king, using the Unitary Executive Theory—aka “POTUS can do whatever the fuck POTUS wants” doctrine. I didn't know much about it, but here's what I've learned so far. It’s the legal theory behind every wannabe dictator’s wet dream. 🧵

Tbh I’m glad I got out of MTG before it blew up with all this wild crossover shit.

An unelected individual has access to our private government information. This person seeks to dismantle the US Government from the inside. And we’re holding up some signs and standing near civic centers. Hopefully this is just the first step but we’ll see. Protest season doesn’t start til its warm.

I feel like I’ve lost so much strength. My bench, squat, and deadlift have all dropped from 225+ down to like 135 - 150.

I didn’t want to go to the gym today. But I did it anyway.

Thinking about squishing the levels of D&D down and sort of normalizing a more horizontal experience rather than a grind towards quasi-godhood which begs the question: Do you need to have incremental rewards and goals to have a good, long term adventuring experience?

I don’t attribute malice to Trump. He’s just racing to escape the consequences of his many crimes. Musk, sure, but I also don’t think either of them have some grand plan. It’s just their opportunity to break things and profit. Nothing bigger in it for them than that.

Earth is named for what you stand upon, the dirt, soil and stone of your world. So is Dross named for the cast off waste and refuse of innumerable strange worlds upon which its peoples tread. -more worldbuilding

Do you think the Democrats have figured out you can’t vote out an “unelected special government official” yet? Or do you think they’re planning to be all “we can win in ‘27, we need your $5!”?

1 rule: No soda Persists

My friends often make fun of me being alone. Little do they know I've taught myself to notice when a woman is engaging me with interest. Notably, this is isn't when a woman is engaging me with disinterest, which is a skill I haven't devised a solution to.

20% of my to-do list.

The bartender was scrolling past My Cousin Vinny on the TV and holy shit this movie has both aged and has legs. Like it’s still kicking,

I’ve been studying skirmish games like Mordheim and Trench Crusade and one of the interesting things about Campaigns is the game mode where characters can grow and change like in an RPG. -Even die-
