Thankfully I didn't have to actually go to twitter to see this screenshot. Pablo was awesome way before this. This just adds more cement. Fuck ESPN.

suddenly felt frantic at the grocery store. Left without buying anything and here is the partial fallout. This type of thing has been increasingly common for me as stressors continue to pile up #cptsd

This right here is the most succinct way of saying WHY CPTSD needs a separate diagnosis in the DSM.

Since there are actually motherfuckers in a local subreddit who are calling for the homeless to be killed, this is for them (though they won't listen).

Post a perfect album from the 90's that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or Alice In Chains.

With all my derealization and having to re-check everything to see if 1) I did it and 2) if I did it right due to extreme trauma, teaching myself to record, mix, and master cohesively with new equipment and software is *very* hard. Sample of my notes.

Remember when, quite recently, Amazon would send emails saying "Ever wonder if your reviews are getting noticed?" Now, they're probably not, and *intentionally*. You also can't click just to see, say, 1-star reviews anymore..or any other stars. It gives you a the same short list regardless.

I may actually need to wear a KN95 (I don't have an N95) mask indoors. I just ordered a small air HEPA air purifier.

"Bacta" is me and my brother's way of saying "back to bed". It also is a Star Wars reference but I'm not sure which came first.

Finished drums for my third 2026 Traumor song. The second song is finished and I'm not sure whether I want to keep releasing singles or to wait until the album is done. But my predilections as a masterer keep changing. *shrug* I have finished writing 2 or 3 other songs too. #metalsky #traumor

An NA beer and my first lunch outdoors in many years. However. Before I got back in my car, some fuckface rain a stop sign, I hit the horn…and not only got middle fingers but a knife brandished from the back seat.

This didn't work. Nothing works against the juggernaut that is my parents house. The only winning move is not to play.

Wrote a lengthy piece about the system and our Democratic nominee. Got this. Which is why democracy is a failure.

My local Walmart, which used to be a Kmart 30 years ago, has been undergoing a major remodeling in the last couple months. The pharmacy finally got their own bathrooms. And they finally started selling guns and scopes right out in the open. I feel safer already. #armyofdarkness #boomstick

@consumerreports.org I am extremely disappointed that you now allow people like John Deere to use your name and checkmark in their ads. I can't try to report this because this happens when I click on the appropriate link.
