Look what just arrived! Thanks @lkcreations.art !!
A copy of “can you spot the cat” from LK creations. It came with two beautiful archival prints and a card. It is lovely.

I just had the BEST weekend in a long long time. I spent Saturday and Sunday , from 8am to 8pm, at #hardlystrictlybluegrass. Now, I’m not a big fan of bluegrass or country music. Some of it is ok, some is just twee bullshit. But #HSB is a lot more than that. And my job there was to /

Show vs. Show #reacher vs. #neagley Look, I like the Neagley show, and the character (annoyed they decided to make her “damaged” instead of ace, but w/e) It’s stupid fun. But it is unquestionably worse than Reacher. Why? Simple. Reacher knows it’s dumb fun. Neagley takes itself WAY too serious.

My row of “recently reads” and TBR. Really just putting g some of the piles laying about the house in order. The five on the right are TBR. 

Not pictured: the entirety of the currently published Dungeon Crawler Carl series which is still downstairs. I love books.

I just saw the Squarespace #goth ad. That’s it. Turning in my goth card. If this what what we’ve become, I don’t want it anymore. (I’m still me. But fuck that ad. Sideways. With a burning rosebush. In a vat of acid. Wearing a gimp suit. Made of hot pink leather. With no air holes.)

Things that make me irrationally #happy. If you watch #reacher with subtitles on, like half the show is just the word “grunting” or “more grunting” or “grunting continues”. This show is SO DUMB and I love it so.

Mixed bag. 20 year old me neither expected or wanted to live this long. They’d be pleased that I have a home and am still deeply weird, but they’d be mortified I’m not any kind of famous or notorious.

Wow. Just saw that converse ad. (No. Not gonna repost it, obviously) Holy fucking shit, that’s not just racist (although it very much is that too…). That’s a goddamn threat. That’s a bunch of southern good olds chuckling around a tree. That is some seriously scary shit.

@gailsimone.bsky.social - has anyone ever thought about the fact that earth having MULTIPLE Green Lanterns must mean that our planet is a corrupt, crime ridden, chaotic cesspit. By galactic standards anyway. Cause that seems amusing.

Spent yesterday on friends boat. Just chilling really. Met a bunch of wild eyed conspiracy theorists. VERY smart folks (compared to me, a mental Lilliputian) but also totally bonkers. Why are smart people so often also bug-fuckin crazy?

Every now and then a phrase pops into my head that is so awful I simply must share, but again, it’s awful. So I save it for social media, where nothing matters and the rules are made up anyway. So here we go: “Fisted by the monkey’s paw.” i.e. getting your wish, but in the worst way possible.

My sister is a professional writer for a certain Big Word Company that has regrettably gone all-in on AI. I could probably do what she does. She’s also an excellent painter and illustrator, she could totally do what I do.

I have like a MILLION (not really, but a lot) things to say about Graham Cracker. But none of them are nice. At all. So I’ll just hold onto them until the Turtle and Mango Mussolini go too. Get them all out at once. It’s not speaking ill of the dead if they genuinely fucking deserve it.

What would you do if one day you realized that there are only a very few real people in the world. That everyone else, the VAST majority of them, are fakes, bad copies, or imaginary? And that you are NOT actually one of the originals. You’re just another #NPC. Kinda where I’m at now.

Just finished the #WonderMan miniseries. And damn, that was good, on every level. And I like how it neatly flipped the “Magical Negro” trope on its head. Sure, Simon had the powers, but Trevor was 100% the “Magical Caucasian”. 10/10, no notes. And, if you are any kind of performer? /
