Spent my day off laying on the couch with period cramps. In a just universe we'd get some Gerard Way™️ Spice Bag ramblings tonight, but nooooo it's another four days 🤨

Bar next door is having a bit of a slow summer, so I have made it known that: - at the next karaoke night I will pause my Friday evening events. - I will do Wrecking Ball. - I WILL bring a hammer. Someone is bound to have a cam I guess 😹

Okay, I'll call it. Hearing Gerard way going "I'm okay now" in real time fucking fixed me. (My B stage photos came out fucking atrocious cause my camera couldn't deal with the lights, but have one anyway)

Oh yeah, not sorry, I'll be mcrposting for now. You know, I think a lot of young Isa - looking for Christina Aguilera's "I'm okay" circa 2004 but got lots of search results for "I'm not okay", - and the AU where they didn't say "uhhhhhh wtf" but went and gave it a listen. So many years wasted 😬😬😬

I travelled 14 hours on trains from three countries just to see my favourite dorks, and the moment I walk in the door at my store, they call out "Ah thank god... Judge!!!" I love my life 💜

I can't believe I suppressed the urge to get a tattoo because I didn't want to interrupt my swimming routine... Just so I could break something in my knee right before the hottest time of the year 😭😭😭

Btw I chatted with a customer this week and it turns out they're in a rock band and they gave me a plek they had in their pocket. I'll take it as an omen for that MCR gig 🤞🤞🤞

Sketchy black and white comic
Panel 1: A cute kitty is being cute
Panel 2: 2 ai bros saying "AI will die if we don't get another million trillions" and "pls make my business profitable for me" (any ressemblance to actual individuals is purely incidental)
panel 3: cute kitty rises a cute paw with cute beans
panel 4: guns shoot out of it's fingers instead of claws, texts says GUNS!! so you can tell what's going on
panel 5: kitty shoots the guns obliterating the AI bros in a gory mess, saying "die faster"
panel 6: cute kitty licks their cute paw saying "motherfuckers"
in the corner there's a box saying "make a terrible comic day 2026"

Sometimes I think I have become reasonably good at taking care of myself, other times I stumble over my own feet and go "it's nothing, really" and keep working. Then a customer who's a doctor goes "uuuhhh tell me if you need something please" and "does that move at all?"

Obvs I didn't end up in jail. But I did confess to some teachers over a drink that we were the ones who set the floor on fire in front of that one teacher's classroom. They said "yeah, that guy was a bit of an ass"

So, class reunion started with one guy I have probably never had a real conversation with plopping into the seat next to me and saying "I look at so many penises each day" (they're a urologist) and it ended with me saying "there are no buses until tomorrow and jail is closer than home" Good times 😆

This afternoon I will play more music roulette with the mp3 player in my headphones. Rules: - no songs I have in my rotation - the more ironic the better - for each song I know I also grab an unknown one by the same artist - we do not listen to the songs until they come up during the workout

I got headphones from AliExpress for 20 bucks and tried them in the pool today. They have an old-fashioned mp3 shuffle mode, and it graced me with that moment where American Idiot faded out and Dragostea Din Tei came on, and as I turned there were two rainbows above me. Five stars, no notes.

On second thought I guess what bothers me most about this is that people might get the idea I'd actually get hurt in a brawl.

Aw fuck, I tend to get some hyperpigmentation in the face in summer, but it's been okay so far because it was more or less just following my features and just not super visible. This time I was hit by a large round, weird spot that looks like I've been in a bar brawl.

Of all the shit I say at work, what silenced the room was when I said I'd be making "just a few simple desserts" for a bbq: A tiramisù, cinnamon cruffins, and by popular demand a fennel tart with chocolate topping (a joke that got out of hand). So anyway, have a pic of the fennel tart

Time Machine Conversation xkcd.com/3251/
4-panel comic. [Person surrounded by glow talking to second person with hair in a bun holding a hoe] (1) PERSON 1: Oh hi! Guess my time machine works. How’s life in the iron age? PERSON 2: Not bad. Developing new kinds of plows. PERSON 1: Cool. PERSON 2: Also my brother was just lost at sea. (2) PERSON 1: I’m sorry. PERSON 2: It’s OK. I think sea navigation is probably impossible. (3) PERSON 1: Oh yeah, you don’t have the compass, right? PERSON 2: The what? PERSON 1: The weird rock that always points north? PERSON 2: What are you *talking* about? (4) PERSON 1: It *does* sound ridiculous when I say it out loud. Anyway, spoilers for the magnetic compass. Sorry. PERSON 2: What’s a spoiler? PERSON 1: ...Spoilers for the concept of a spoiler, too.

tv shows reeling nazis in like
3 panel comic done in the style of a Roadrunner cartoon

Panel 1: 4 stupid little Nazis are standing around a sign that says “Fascism”
They are all super excited about the fascism they are about to witness.

Panel 2: A large shadow is suddenly cast over them. They all look up.

Panel 3: A huge boulder labelled SATIRE lands on them. Crushing them all to death

The pool was cold the last two weeks, so I've switched from three units of swimming to just one, but have been doing some short runs. So, does my knee hurt because a) too much exercise b) too little exercise c) the wrong exercise d) lol fuck you, you're old and the universe hates you 😐

I got the job of inviting our former teachers to the class reunion. The one I remember most fondly (and agonized over the proper way to address them because I really can't remember if we were on a first name basis) replied that they're too poorly to leave the house. That hit hard AF.

I told a friend I'm going to see MCR, and he was like "I don't know who that is" I said "Black parade, you know?" And he deadass says "oh yeah, I think I went to see them like 15 years ago, but it was boring and I wouldn't do it again. I'm really hyped to see Placebo next week though." 😭😭😭
