I don't get how anyone can see the vastness of what space is; the amount of galaxies that exist beyond our own farther than we could even fathom... and be so sure that we are the only planet that life could possibly exist on.

Can't sleep. Clown will eat me

This is probably my new favorite photo of me. I feel like it really captures me as a director in the ring. For context, this was at the recent Lo Cal Swordfight beginners tourney we just hosted.

If you ever wondered what a College of Swords bard looks like. It's something like this.

Ahhhhh! It's coming in today! Got an email with the tracking code like 2 hours ago, checked it, and it says arriving this afternoon! Now I can't sleep!

Ewoks are what happens when carebears stop caring. I didn't choose the murder bear life. The murder bear life chose me.

Both my blood pressure and blood sugar are back to normal, healthy levels. I'm no longer pre-diabetic, nor do I have hypertension anymore. HELL YEAH. What's my secret, you ask? ... .. . Swords. #HEMA #combatsport

You ever cook something you think is gonna be bomb AF, but turns out extremely disappointing and not very good? It's edible, but tastes like disappointment. But you slowly force yourself to eat it all, because you're not wasteful and you invested that time to cook.

If Frodo had a cat, the one ring would have never been found.

Starting "Alloy of Law" and seeing only 10 hours (6 for 1.75 speed) and 20 chapters after finishing stormlight archive I'm like....

I have not had a thrill like this in finishing a book series in a very long time. Once I hit the last few hours, I couldn't stop. No sleep was allowed until I was finished. Now I can't sleep because I'm all riled up from that! Ahhhhh! #cosmere #windandtruth #stormlightarchive #lifebeforedeath

Can someone please explain to me properly and in detail why lawmakers/policy writers can hide shit in their policies? Because things like "tiktok ban" shouldn't be allowed to be hidden in something like "humanitarian aid for places hit with natural disasters" that people desperately need to pass.

Just got an email response a couple days ago regarding my new gear. They sent me a mock up for confirmation, and said after I confirm they should have shipping info to me within 3 weeks. Here's to hoping I'll get it before SoCal Swordfight!

I just thought of something... I wonder how the tariffs are gonna affect the gear I ordered from Europe last year that won't be ready till close to March this year to send to me. Idk much on how tariffs work.
