my gaming group trying to arrange a huge board game party for my friend's birthday in july, and of course i'll be out of town that weekend so i can't attend. however, the reason i'll be out of town is because i'm seeing weird al yankovic in concert with my brothers, so that's cool too.

i have a horrible confession to make: i love heavy metal music and i listen to heavy metal all the time, but i've never listened to iron maiden. i think the only song i've ever heard from them is "run to the hills." maybe one day i'll check out some of their other songs.

i found out today is #makeaterriblecomicday so i hurried up and made one of my dumb #gijoe comics, hopefully it counts as a terrible comic.

i just subscribed to a blocklist for anyone who follows more than 10,000 people. honestly if you follow more than 5,000 that's just deranged, but 10,000 is followback weirdo and bot territory.

i don't watch television at all, but i found out yesterday that tubi has 24 seasons (!) of "how it's made", also known as the greatest television show ever, so guess who's watching "how it's made" today?

when i put something on ebay and it sells right away, part of me thinks "good, i'm glad it sold, now i can get rid of it" and part of me thinks "damn, i should have set the price higher."

you know its going to be fun at work when you sit in the break room for a few minutes (which is air conditioned) and as soon as you walk out on the shop floor, your glasses immediately fog up.

i don't really promote my writing very much, but i finally uploaded all my resident evil books to my personal website. you can read them all here: andreasleachim.neocities.org/residentevil

goose update. there's a goose family, plus two additional gooses, and if you look closely, you'll notice the bird sitting directly in front of the goose family is actually a duck. #gooses

i bought a half dozen donuts but i only ate two of them right away. why? because i have self control, that's why. (five minutes later, runs into the kitchen to scarf down the other four donuts like a ravenous wild animal)

hey @bsky.app @support.bsky.team love you folks but i have a request. i'm one of the smaller accounts on here but sometimes people like my posts and i don't know why. perhaps a tweak of the algorithm is in order. thanks.

so anyway, the first seven chapters are basically done for the new resident evil book. gonna do another couple read-throughs and change a few little things and then i'll get it posted on my website by the end of the month. also finishing up the first five chapters of my next original novel.

when i'm writing resident evil fanfiction, i often need to come up with a bunch of science-sounding bullshit. but i want it to be at least vaguely-accurate science-sounding bullshit, so i just spent the past hour reading wikipedia articles about white blood cells.

goose family update #gooses

i noticed a few posts on here about "bloomsday" and i thought it was about the comic strip bloom county.

in toy related news, i now have all four of the gi joe transformer crossovers. i got each of them used on ebay with just the transformer and no gi joes, since i already have the vintage figures. i think they're pretty cool, but they aren't making any more of these, right?

enter sandman has to be the craziest song about going to bed

i'm at the protest in milwaukee right now, having a great time. #nokings

the boys are back in town! they were resurrected by an evil spell and have come back to wreak their undead vengeance!

my computer: i have to restart. got an important update. me: i just restarted you for an update like three hours ago! how can you already have another update? my computer: this one's super important, i promise.

i don't get worked up about delivery dates when i buy things online, but it does annoy me when the tracking says my order is "on time" to be delivered tomorrow, but as of today it's in a city over 1000 miles away. you know goddamn well it isn't arriving tomorrow.

it's friday the 13th, son of friday the 12th and heir to the friday family fortune.

the only celebrities i've ever interacted with are heavy metal bands when i go to concerts. when i went on the "70,000 tons of metal" cruise last year, i shared an elevator with simone simons and mark jansen from epica, which was incredibly cool.

the reveal trailer for the spaceballs sequel says there have been two dunes since the original spaceballs, but they forgot about the scifi channel dune movies based on children of dune and dune messiah, so there's actually been like four dunes since then.

i just ordered some new underwear on the internet. i know everyone is jealous of my amazing action-packed life, so let me tell you, the excitement never stops around here.

this is true: my supervisor at work is in a band and he has convinced me to come and see his band play at a bar this friday. i better get a big raise at my next review.

the reason that so many morally bankrupt and intellectually dishonest scumbags are in positions of power in our government is because our entire society and culture rewards morally bankrupt and intellectually dishonest scumbags.

i just found out orbit culture has a new song out, holy crap now i have to listen to it 600 times in a row.

email: "your package has been delivered!" me: "yeah but my mailbox is located way out on the sidewalk like 100 yards from my actual apartment building, and i don't wanna walk that far."

walkie-talkies can only be called that if you're walking while you use it. if you're running, you have to call it a runnie-talkie. if you're sitting, you have to call it a sittie-talkie. you get the idea.

i like big butts and i am capable of lying. in fact, i lied just now about liking big butts.
