I had a moment just now where I almost typed "must be Tuesday" into Slack before realizing I don't know this co-worker well enough to be sure she would get the reference. But I know Y'ALL would.
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration
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

I look more rad than Lutheranism
pittie and I think corgi mix
My mom and stepdad had a pittie/corgi mix, and he was awesome and adorable.
Surgery update: hand still not evil.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Just to be on the safe side, don't expose it to bright light, get it wet, or feed it after midnight.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Your poor housemate come off like a mensch imo, fwtw
That's very sweet of you to say, -t; I'm biased, of course, but I very much agree with you. He's been a role model for me for pretty much all of the decade-plus I've known him.

You don't *think* it's done any evil... but they are tricky bastards.
My Zoom buddy is rewatching Buffy -- I just took the dog on quick a half-miler, so I printed out an "Out. For. A. Walk.... Bitch." meme and pointed my camera at it for when he rejoins the call after his meeting. I toyed with just using it as my video block screen, but that way lies too much potential for "oopsie, didn't mean to leave that up!" issues when I'm on with regular people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had to run over here from Bluesky to share this with Sophia: [link] (and everyone, but that who I always think of when I eat beets)
Saying hi to a coworker this morning, I just said "At least the weather is good" and she went right into how much anxiety etc she's having, and we're not even close! It's a shitshow at my job.

Always Anti-fascist!
I stupidly waded into "Addiction can't be a disability because people decide to get high," yesterday. For people like me, it's like stepping in gum. I always think I'm done, but it's REALLY hard to get rid of. But I'm just so over "Not you; the people Who Game The System." that I have receipts. I have CVS receipts. Because I've got time, because I get *just enough* which was the entry point of the discussion in the first place.(Maybe I used to think that, till I considered the pill cabinet in my outlaws' family and how they had to lock it up, whereas I think they could leave it hanging open in front of my face and it would not be intrigued, whatever. maybe they don't have my poison, though. Every time I read about ecstasy, I do think "Better not," even now.) But, boy, I know how to really make the most of my last bits of freedom...it's true, we disabled folk...just, like, live *deeper* than the rest of y'all. Inspired yet?
