My office chair just ripped while I was sitting on it. So now I'm watching tv instead of working.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
In other news, Buffista Island?
Only if it's in international waters.
Considering the potential sea level increases coming, maybe it would be better to find a mountain retreat.
...and able to fly.
(Ok, Buffista Space Station. What I want is a Buffista Space Station.)

Punishingly Intricate
Installing Signal on my phone to provide herd immunity to activists being tracked by the government.
What is this?

It's not unbreakable, but using encryption makes it more difficult for government/police to spy on its citizens. The theory is that if only people who need to hide use encryption on their phone, then people in power know exactly who to track. If we all start using encryption, then we make it more difficult for the government to snoop and find targets.

Oh man. I fee like even the things that make me laugh these days also make me wince. That and those Biden memes.
Rainbow knife, Matt? Nice.
Anyone else want to go to Mexico during the inauguration? There's a small part of me worried about being out of the country for it but also part that doesn't want to be anywhere near here.

This made me laugh so hard!
Congratulations, Callaluna. May you shake the dust off your feet and stride forth into a shiny new life. (Sorry America just peed all over the couch cushions, though...)
Good luck with the biopsy, Consuela.

Good luck, Consuela!
Anyone have ideas what I should get for my Trump-voting dad for Christmas? I want to buy him a bunch of books and make him read them but I know if he did that to me and gave me a bunch of catholic shit I'd be pissy. But ugh.
(Thankfully my brother is not coming home for Christmas this year, I don't think I can face him)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, probably don't pay for a trans person's new passport in his name, huh?

So, the headline here says "read the book that's not for you," but really they mean "read the book that's not about you," right? I mean, the book about the Tea Party people sounds like it's actually for me. [link]
