We DO NOT throw perfectly good food away in this house. We put leftovers in a Tupperware & let it go bad, THEN throw it out!

Every time you boop a cat’s nose, the cat gains 25 xp, which doesn’t seem like a lot but it adds up

The reward out for the person who shot United Healthcare's CEO isn't even enough to cover 1/9 of the bill we got for 28 days of radiation.
A screencap that reads: NYPD Crime Stoppers has announced a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible.

get up, get ready for work. Work, work, work, work, lunch and check on my right to live, no decision yet? Still arguing. Cool. Cool. Work. Work. Work. Go home. Check on my right to live again ...

I know a lot of people are saying this, but it's so overwhelming and exhausting and dispiriting to have your right to life - to live! - be argued before the Supreme Court while you just have to go about your day, making money for your bosses and surrounded by people who don't care in the slightest.

something that is especially clear if you have studied colonialism a bit: a load bearing aspect of maintaining even a semblance of democracy (or defending a sitting autocracy from democracy) is having a military that is unwilling to kill its own citizens

Wikipedia picture of 25 different shades of violet in squares - OK so here's the thing I just discovered a great Bluesky exploit.  You only get 300 characters for a skeet, but you get 2000! For the alt text description.  This means that long winded silly geese like me or you can blather on and on about a story or really anything without needing to break it into a series of linked skeets.  All you have to do is use a bizarre image and hope people check the alt text! Ah the unbridled power of silliness!  I could talk about my RPG campaign from last night. Or my interpretation of Heraclitus' fragments about sleep and the sense in which sleeping people are sharing in the work of the cosmos along with awake people.  Woke people? Heehee, I could share Dr Corley's silly work on using the "Batman-Smoot per Gaetz per Scaramucchi" as a unit of force, and the difficulties in quantifying which batman unit is to be used, or exactly how long it was from Gaetz's nomination to his dropping out.  About 8 days.  Ok do we count from the President-elect's signature, or from the press release?  And at the end from when Gaetz announced he was dropping out, or from when CNN asked him about the 2nd 17 year old he's accused of having sex with 45 minutes earlier? Also there seems to be some disagreement about whether to refer to a period of 10 days as a "Scaramucci" or as a "Mooch." See I am blathering about silly things in what Zhuangzi call "flowing words" and I still have over a skeet left! One of the students at my school the other day was wearing a shirt saying "FUTURE MILF." Presumably most people like to masturbate.  So is the shirt semantically a near synonym with "Future Mom" or does the indexicality of the I, disappear when the acronym is made into a mere noun, so that is closer to "Future mother that I hope others would like to f***"  I dont know.  I can't figure out the meaning of the shirt (and thus whether or not it violates the school's dress code).  Well it's hilarious to me.

So one of our RPGs is a diceless variant about characters that move often from world to world. Last night our characters were in. Fallout world and about to attack a Brotherhood of Steel base. But in classic RPG style one of the characters decided to turn battle night into seduction night.

Cartoon of cute cat sleeping in a 4 poster bed.  Caption in handish font "can't mistakey / if not awakey."  Bedspread decorated with strawberries and strawberry flowers and mild lace border.  Cat is clutching a strawberry stuffie while sleeping.  4 socks and a bar cellphone on floor in foreground. Background includes nightstand with lava lamp (plugged in with outlet) and partially eaten and opened can of tuna.  Wall includes a framed picture of the cat's favorite box. Cartoon signed @susie-esse.  4 poster bed has 6 slats at head but only 5 at foot, likely an allegorical Western version of Zhaungzi's famous teaching of "4 in the morning, but 3 at night." The cellphone has a star shaped fob of some kind, not really sure what that is or why, you'd probably have to contact the artist. Cat has a pillow in two tones of pink.  Actually multiple tones of pink are echoed throughout the piece on bedspread, sheets, strawberries, socks, tuna can, lava, lettering background (wallpaper and floor?), light browns for bed, picture frame sidetable, etc.  greens in cellphone, strawberry caps. Etc.  dang 2000 characters of description for an image is hard and Im not really and artist, that will have to do.

It’s really something to watch the Party whose supporters poop on the floor in the Capitol and wipe their feces on the wall tell us which bathrooms to use.

I've been asked to tell the story of the Jar Carrier, my favorite ancient Jewish trans person. They show up in 3 of the Christian canonical gospels, but get ignored or misunderstood by Christians a lot, and I like telling their story when I get a chance.

I never really got the hang of Twitter, maybe half a dozen tweets a decade ago. Couldn't get the right balance of social and parasocial. My FB started out social, but got slowly more dysfunctionally parasocial over time. Already struggling with social vs parasocial balance here too. Any tips?

Just saw the last episode of Stargate SG1, (I know over a decade late). It was a great last episode, which is hard to pull off. (One of our current RPGs is set in the Stargate setting, so we've been working on finishing the last few seasons.)

Gonna attempt some theology on Bluesky to delay grading. My friend Helen recently said that she stopped being Christian in 2022 after being a talented Christian theologian (check out her book Wonderstruck), and that the main thing tearing her away from Christianity was atonement - cont in replies

Hmm, Intro post? 2 kids at home: 20, 22, 1 wife, technically poly. Living in Indiana (yikes). Recently been into reading Wandering Inn, Worm, and many many webcomics, playing RPGS with my friends (one Stargate themed). Delicious in Dungeon, Vox Machina, other cartoons, listening to weird music...
