Man, Haribo is so good. I think my favorite bag right now is Starmix, as I only need to get one bag and have multiple different types of gummies on hand. Which include my snakes! Plus I actually like the little cola bottle ones.

Listening to parts of the Mario Kart 8 OST feels like drinking coffee Tight, now I've got caffeine pills at the ready

I gotta say, a little bit of smoked salt really does go a long way when eating some leftover soup. Sometimes that's all it needs, lol

I'll be darned, the lemonade at McDonald's is actually pretty decent It's not Minute Maid, plus it's got actual lemon in it (it's probably one of the few things I do get there though, lol)

I understand y'all need to make a living as artists and all but at some point you should ask yourselves if it's really worth staying in a place managed by a nazi who will literally steal your hard work.

Commish for @spatiamorph.bsky.social thanks much! Featuring a Psyduck dressing like a Gumby!

Today I learned: there's a recipe for banana bread in the description of OneyNG's "Pointy Bits" cartoon on YouTube Click on "more" to see it

Just tried the Limoncello LaCroix for the first time. Holy cow, this is some good stuff! Even ended up drinking a second can of it; new favorite, for sure. With that said, though, I think they need to rename this flavor... because this tastes like frosted lemon pound cake, icing and all lmao

Do yourself a favor and block Straitfox on every platform, he's a racist, bigot, narcissist (and of course a trump supporter lol) who's spent the last 10 years shitting on anyone who doesn't treat him like gods gift to mankind. Hates my husband and by extension myself, despite never talking to me

This felt good. Ran out of chips mid-fight because I suck, but whatever. Get pwned anyways

It's pretty nuts how a character from a cartoon known for swearing a lot and being offensive can make me hungry for grocery store Chinese takeaway But damnit, sometimes you just gotta scratch that itch

FYI google have now stopped "-ai" working at the end of your search string. So put this at the end (after a space) instead: &udm=14 Fuck you #google. #AI

Right, I'm kinda done screwing around. Call me a "negative nancy" if you wish, but it's time to start taking action. We can idle no longer. www.npr.org/2025/01/28/n...

Got around to watching the second Sonic movie! That's a lot of references... I knew G.U.N. was a thing, but not actually anything about it. Maybe I should try brushing up on Sonic lore a bit. Good to see the team back together, though! And the baseball scene at the end really made it for me, lmao

Emotional Support Bro (Part 2) - Gator Days

I'm so glad to see Estelle Ellis voice Krystal in various fan projects. She had so much potential as a character all the way back in Dinosaur Planet. But then things happened, and then she got basically thrown away. Until Event Horizon came along! I've been really enjoying what I've seen so far.

Looking back over the years, it seems like pizza from local joints like Martin City Brewing Company tends to be the most common birthday meal choice for me and my family. I suppose it makes sense -- a couple of times, we went to mom and pop Italian joints and they made me pretty happy 👍

I always keep thinking that Balrog from Cave Story is a toaster. He's not; he's actually based off of a 𝘣𝘢𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘰𝘢𝘱. But with that said, he does still possess a few robotic traits. Interesting.

Jolteon 🧦

"Which Eeveelution is your favorite?" All of them! But if we're going by design: 1. Espeon 2. Glaceon 3. Umbreon 4. Vaporeon 5. Sylveon 6. Leafeon 7. Flareon I also like Eevee, but it's the base form. I don't wanna say that evolving it makes it look less appealing lol

So me and 4 other people were in the middle of playing Monster Hunt; one of the mods said he was tired but chose one of the larger maps anyways But whatever, we still play it... everything starts going well, but then suddenly people start leaving mid-game one by one until it's me and the mod

As I'm watching TV on my phone while brushing my teeth for the night, this pops up. The irony, while mild, is still rather present with this one.

Whuh oh. Now that I've discovered that I do enjoy decaf tea, I'm starting to drink it iced and unsweet quite a bit again But truth be told, it's such a mood enhancer. Especially when combined with some of the "herbal" varieties... mint being a particularly good example of this

Guilty pleasure: I really like the Wal-Mart ready-to-eat fried potato wedges They're cheap, plentiful, and the ones over here are just really damn good when they come fresh from the frier

Man, I'm so glad most of the things that I use nowadays run nice and smoothly. I doubt I could tolerate what I had to put up with 20-25 years ago, haha

My mom ended up watching the first Sonic movie after she found out that Jim Carrey was in it She thought it was pretty okay

I don't think this would last very long around our house, lol www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6q4...

If "birds of a feather flock together" - THEN - "pieces of shit clog the toilet" ... as I've always wanted to say "turds of a feather" but that makes absolutely zero sense. (there's also "pieces of poop form a group" if one can't make a soccer mom named "Karen" angry, but whatevs)

Going to get a medicinal shot or have my blood drawn doesn't scare me. I look around the office, or just daydream -- if I'm not thinking about what's going on at the moment, then I usually don't feel the needle going in. Or if I 𝘥𝘰, it's barely noticeable. Sometimes I even ask if they did it, lol

So apparently Christmas was still going on today, holy shit We ended up visiting a food pantry, and... we ended up not only completing most of our shopping list, but also got 3 half-gallon cartons of whole chocolate milk and a $15 𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘣 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘶 as well We were most certainly not expecting that!

Even if I might not play Pokemon GO as regularly as I used to, I think one thing that I may need to start doing again is collecting "vendor trash" (i.e. Pokemon with very low CP values that are supposed to be traded in) so that I can start gaining a LOT more candy and stardust over time

Today we celebrate Boxing Day in the UK, so named because cats spend the day exploring empty boxes discarded from Christmas Day* *This may not be true
