I've been playing AM2R lately and it is so much fun. Exactly what I needed to get my Metroid fix until I can afford a Switch for Dread and Ravenous

Ugh. This might be a hot take/risque statement but, Humans are not meant to work so much. We are meant to eat, and play and sleep, and fuck. All I want to do is those things. Fuck capitalism

Played a speedy round to beat the sunset and I successfully played all 18 holes of disc golf so I was feeling myself. I'm not really all-that but half of being all-that is just forcing the belief. Eh I don't know self esteem is weird

Alright I think it's time I finally formally recommend this album Usually if a large number of songs from an album get stuck in my head through a week, it's time to talk about it and let people know

Alabama Shakes released their new album on Friday but I'm afraid of listening to it because I'm pretty sure I will perish from pure emotional release

Frogs are such interesting creatures. Nature was like "we need a slimy little guy that eats lots of bugs and primarily need a lot of water so it swims but it also is very good at jumping." And then Nature was also like "we also need a uglier, tankier version. How about Toads?"

I think I sometimes lean into the "the verbose post implies serious deadpan" thing too much

There's a dg guy on twitter that has been insufferably argumentative about the most stupid stuff lately. But it's challenging me to present clear and thorough arguments

As soon as Aaron Gossage starts showing visible frustration, it's probably over for him. His game drops like crazy. after the 1st time he slaps his own knee or hand after a bad result. I hope he keeps his head on straight, if nothing else but to pressure the rest of the top.

The 18th hole at Toboggan is cool in concept in relation to throwing techniques but it looks so weird off the tee. That angle makes it look small compared to the rest of the course.

Started feeling bleh right as I started my shower so I just did what I could to clean essentials quickly. Which meant skipping my hair. Not getting your head wet but taking a shower for everything else feels weird.

Had to head to the youtube to see who agreed with me or who agreed with his fuck-ass take. Way too many men are overvaluing how much Pro DG is providing for its players. This whole situation is way more of an indictment of the Pro DG industry than anything else imo

Geezus, just listened to the GripLocked show for Worlds Hunter is being entirely completely over dramatic about Taylor Chocek. Like, just absolutely crazy and reductive and assumptive. But maybe he's just being inflammatory on purpose. Hard to say.

Bluesky keeps signing me out and I couldn't be bothered to find my info to sign again. But I had to share some outrage about Hunter from Foundation Disc Golf so I'm back

Fuck it, if my body can't for some reason find the way to drive to a field or a course I'm going to sweat my ass off anyway in the backyard and jump some rope and practice some putts

There's still time for Silva to turn it on, but it's gotta be like, now. There's still plenty of disc golf left

After all the rain we've had this year, Lake Travis in Austin is full (for now). This mean the water level is higher at a lot of parks, which also means we don't have to descend nearly as far down shitty rocks to get down to the water. Pictures of hippie hollow look so sick

I need a new desk chair but decent ones are just a tad expensive for me right now. and no I'm not going to buy used because that would kind of defeat the purpose of buying a chair that is better for my back. and no I don't spend too much time on computers.

Yesterday, I woke up and thought "huh, I should throw the Discraft Meteor." For no real reason at all. I have one with the old Discraft single flight number. No one is talking about it. It's just an old mold. But damn is it a fun disc. Might have to find a new one just cause.

It's honestly such a mind fuck to be pretty much completely ghosted by a close, long time friend. And I let them do it to me twice in my lifetime. Wtf is wrong with me.

it's so weird, I've never been much of a "oh shit I've gotta have *collectible thing* at all costs, even though I won't be utilizing it that much and it's going to go into a pile of similer things" because like. I want it to be worth the money

I was thinking about posting something like "Some men out there might think they are 'leg guys,' but they haven't met me. I set the bar really high" but I don't know that there is a good, non-misogynistic way of saying that

me: "ah it's gonna be a slow week at work I'm gonna do so much fun stuff and exercise after work" also me: *stays up too late each night because I feel like I won't need as much sleep for the slow day tomorrow but then I'm tired after work anyway*

haven't played a disc golf tournament in a few months and there is one this weekend but there is a fair chance of rain and I would like to steel myself and play it anyway but it's the two courses in town that are probably The Worst To Play when it's wet.
