I read. I write. I have cats. I eat too much. Occasionally I gad about town frolicking & cavorting, what with the shenanigans and the goings on. Cisgender (He/Him).

My Alexa devices were working fine earlier but now they’re not responding at all. Is the outage getting worse?

Why the fuck are you all online shopping at 2-4am?

Watched the first couple of eps of Sheriff Country, purely because of Morena Baccarin, having no idea it was a spin off of something called Fire Country. It’s super cheesy copaganda, not a serious drama in the least, but mildly entertaining.

There’s a Dick Turpin Halloween Special. Which begs the question, did anyone remember Dick Turpin? Or know it was still a thing??

The President of the United States of America publicly posted a video of himself, as King, shitting on US citizens. LET THAT STINK IN. #Trump #NoKings

Had a dream last night that I was visited by my cat Nightingale who went missing several years ago. Was so sad to wake up and realize she was still gone. 😞

So glad Matlock is back for season 2!

Doing history reading tonight (Global History since 1500), and reading of the European colonization of the Americas and Africa, and the birth of the transatlantic slave trade, is really depressing, but whenever I try to take a break and start scrolling thru current events 😫😫😫

I would very much like another Monk movie.

Needed something fun and silly to watch so I decided it’s time for a Psych rewatch. Makes me laugh every time, and I had forgotten how his dad is such an asshole in the beginning of every episode lol.

Seen some people saying they were disappointed in the Peacemaker finale. Personally I loved it, bummed there won’t be a season 3 unless Gunn is secretly planning a Peacemaker movie? Or something involving the Charlton heroes as a group?

I think I might start instantly blocking anyone who posts, “Why doesn’t one reporter ask him” etc etc etc. BECAUSE THEY DON’T DO THAT ANYMORE. Please stop asking.
