Every new season of @dimension20.bsky.social is so much fun, they all seem to have their own personalities that instantly capture my attention, but Dungeons and Drag Queens season 2 has jumped off so incredibly so quickly that I just needed to skeet about it.

I have watched a ton of movies that I haven’t seen in ages with my kiddo over the holiday. Wizard of Oz, 101 Dalmatians, White Christmas, and many more. I forgot how good a lot of these are.

I’m having a hard time with treats in the Cook household. Should my 2yr old get treats whenever he says in a very cute way, “I get a popoo (popsicle)?” I think he needs to do more tricks my wife says it’s treat time anytime?

Merry Christmas everyone! Even if you celebrate another holiday I hope you have a great celebration!

My 10 yr old is watching Scrooge on Netflix and asked me if Debtors prison is a thing today… I had to tell her, “not yet… not exactly… or well… that’s not what we call it today…”

Teaching kids is the hardest task I’ve ever encountered. I have been a dad for 18 yrs and it’s never once gotten easier. I have 4 kids and parenting each one of them is a full on different job, requiring different skills… imagine being a teacher… wow

New episode about how we love our freedom to ban stuff.

Consistently is key when building a Bluesky following, that’s why I post hilarious one liners every day between 11:72 and 12:83 pm

What’s Eating Gilbert(s) Butthole

When I had a violent stalker who would graphically describe how he would have me gang raped, puncture my organs and and break all my bones, I was told the police "couldn't do anything". Consider this a reminder that they absolutely ✨can✨ do something. They just don't care about YOU.

You can’t have Robin Hood without King Richard…

If Trump = Prince John Maybe Elon is the Sheriff Is Mitch Mconnell Hiss? The Rooster minstrel is @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social Who in the heck is gunna be Robin Hood in today’s world?

@skeetofgod.bsky.social image you’re the DM at a d&d table telling the story of Robin Hood who do you cast as the characters?

More people should watch Robin Hood with their kids… that way they know who the good guys are in the story when they look out into the world today

@forrestvalkai.bsky.social I imagine you tell a Robin Hood story well, if you were at a table where this story was being told via d&d what part of that would wanna play most?

@brennanleemulligan.bsky.social how would you tell the story of Robin Hood? If you were to play a Robin Hood character in a story, what world? Who would you want to dm? Who would you want at the table to play other characters?

Watching Robin Hood tonight and thinking how applicable it is today… If Prince John is Trump, is Elon Hiss? Who is going to become the real word Robin Hood?

Exactly

We used to say, “Up your butt and around the corner!” Much more than we do now…. I miss it

Roku tvs have a BabyShark channel… if you aren’t a parent of a toddler you don’t understand how both terrifying and terrific this is at the same time…

Sickening hypocrisy.

@theardenhart.bsky.social I hope you had a great trip and a happy birthday! Guess who is 2 days late to “the line”

I’ve been saying this for a few years now

I have a hard time discussing issues with anyone when they lack context… i was having a convo about UHC this morning and when I went to point out how wealth disparity today is greater than during the French Revolution, they looked back at me like what’s that…

What if we’re all a lot less intelligent that we think, AND we’re still smarter than the next president of the US of A

'I never thought bullets would spray ME' sobs man who voted for the Bullets Spraying Everyone Amidst No Universal Health Coverage Party.

I like how Bluesky lets me directly tell authors how much their work has meant to me, that’s pretty cool

I don’t know how many parents there are in my feed, but the tree of wisdom has become everything for me
