My ADHD meds are backordered so I've been off them for a few days, and I don't feel like I've ever been this tired before. Everything is like moving through sludge, and I have no idea when I'll be getting them. 🫠

Pete Hegseth is what you would get if you put Mac from Always Sunny in charge of the military.

A blood moon eclipse on my 39th birthday seems...ominous? Portentous? Something like that. XD

It just dawned on me that the Jesus Loves Marijuana guy from Community is Coach Beard, and I don't know what to do with that information but my mind is blown.

If people talked about food the way they talk about entertainment on social media, every meal would be either the best or worst thing they've ever eaten.

As a kid who basically WAS Tim from Jurassic Park, Dr. Alan Grant (and by extension Sam Neil) was my hero. This one hurts. #RIPSamNeill

Finally saw The Mandalorian and Grogu, and enjoyed the hell out of it. I truly don't know what people were expecting, but it delivered exactly what I hoped it would.

"Know your knot" and "No you're not" are homophonic sentences with very different meanings.

In The Lion King, Scar faces consequences for misleading his constituents and not following through on his promises. This is how we know it's fiction.

I think I accidentally took an extra Adderall this morning and I'm low-key mad about how good I feel.

I'd like to think if I lived in ancient Greece I would have been a philosopher; because I'm really good at overthinking things and pretty bad at actually doing things.

One fun thing about living on the outskirts of Portland is that you can sometimes hear packs of coyotes howling at the sound of distant sirens.

"The hands of the king are the hands of a healer. Thus shall the true king be known." I rewatched Return of the King EE recently, and while it is all an incredible film, the scene that hit me hardest was when Aragorn was personally caring for Eowyn in the Houses of Healing.

Words can't do justice to the rage I feel right now. Fuck ICE, fuck Trump and Miller and Bovino and their entire cabinet of shitbags; fuck fascists and nazis and cowardly piss-babies who feel nothing but contempt for their fellow humans, and who happily, callously perpetrate violence against others.

Please. I need a Punisher movie where he just kills so many ICE agents.

The inherent problem with any story where Santa Claus exists but people stop believing in him, is that people would KNOW he exists because SOMEONE is giving kids toys on Christmas that the parents didn't buy.

Theater Kids (and I'm including myself among them) have been far-and-away some the kindest, most accepting, and enthusiastic people I've ever known. High school and college theater gave me (a previously home-schooled and undiagnosed AuDHD kid) a place where I could be my weird, awkward self.

Them:... Me: So a lot of people think the towers referenced in the title "The Two Towers" are Isengard and Barad-dur, but they are actually Isengard and Minas Morgul, which was once known as Minas Ithil, and was the easternmost fortification of Gondor before it fell to the Nazgul in TA 2002

Lists like this are helpful because it gives us a list of people who will be the first to go when the revolution comes.

@girlwithatail.bsky.social @brettmorris.bsky.social Just started listening to the new College Town and yelled "Meet-cuticle!" when Jan and Beebo were trying to figure what to call flicking each other's fingernails. No idea if that's anything. 😆

My main question about this ballroom being built is whether there are a series of tunnels running underneath where one could conceal large amounts of gunpowder.

Okay but RFK IS autistic, right? I can't see any other reason for his obsession with autism, and he also seems to a fucked-up special interest in animals.

I'd like to thank everyone involved in #ResidentAlien for making such a weird, beautiful, poignant show. The amount of times I went from laughing to crying to laughing again was not insignificant.

It's fun (and by that I mean depressing) to rewatch 30 Rock and see how many of the satirical political jokes are literally just our current reality. Which further proves we are nearing the natural conclusion to the road America has been on for the 50+ years. Anyway, it's a great show.

If I wrote an autobiography, it would be titled something like "I'm Not Trying to Tailgate You, I'm Just Trying to Go the Speed Limit: My life constantly being stuck behind people going 15 in a 25 zone."

Can't wait to play a Wolfenstein-type video game where you play as an immigrant in a slightly more dystopian America, but instead of nazis you're blowing away ICE agents.

While Jurassic Park will probably always be my favorite of the series, I think the dinosaur design really peaked with JP3. Conversely, I feel like the dino designs in the JW movies felt like bad photocopies of the originals.

Say what you will about Rise of Skywalker, but the idea that it requires regular people coming together en masse to reject fascism is extremely relevant.

Having ADHD sometimes feels like your brain is a room full of toddlers, and developing a new hyperfixation is a like someone putting Bluey on the TV.

"Our system only works when it's allowed to steal anything from anyone." Is really a great summation of Western Imperialism.
