I'm gonna do something I have never done in my life... make an introductory post!

Hi, I'm Gen. 👋
I'm a GenX bartender in a gambling parlour and I WILL bitch about work. Vociferously.

I p much post whatever comes to mind, whenever I feel like it.

Hey y’all- a great, small rescue in Austin can use some help. They’re trying to get a badly injured kitten from the border up to Austin. If you’ve got a few bucks to add, that would be huge.

And yet another precious life is hanging in the balance.

Believe it or not, we truly loathe asking for help as often as we have been lately. But right now, another kitten desperately needs us — and whether we can step up depends on what our supporters are willing to make possible.

This little one is currently at Palm Valley Animal Shelter. She was brought in by animal control after being found stuck in a fence for three days. Her right front leg was already gone — amputated by trauma — with bone exposed. 💔

With no veterinarian on staff, the shelter has no means to provide the care she urgently needs. She’s been given an END OF DAY deadline — 5PM today, October 16th. Without a rescue stepping up, her story will end there.

We want to say yes. We want to bring her to safety.
But to do that, we need your help.

We’ll need funds for transport, our rockstar volunteer transporter Jessica has already agreed to make the drive for us, a surgical amputation to clean and close her wound, and ongoing care. If our community can rally behind her, even just a few dollars at a time, we can tell the shelter she’s safe and on her way to healing.

Can we count on you to help us say yes?

Every single dollar, every share, every show of support tells us she’s not alone - and neither are we.  

Can you spare $2 for this little one today?

Cash donations are the priority today, but I’ve also got their Amazon wishlist for folks. Again, this is a great, niche rescue who does amazing work. They do kittens, puppies, and occasional squirrels!

I've tried a few brands and I keep going back to Bose. I like their bass! I'll probably just save them for home speakers now, though.

These el cheapo audio monitors were perhaps my best purchase EVAR. I mean, I'm a Bose girl for life but these Ars-Technicas have blown me away!
I'm jammin' tonight/day and decided to play "Money for Nothing." Have you ever noticed the bassline?? I mean, I know it's difficult when you're distracted by Mark Knopfler doin' his thing up front (deservedly), but that bassline fuckin' SLAPS.

It irritates me that people think you need drugs to have a hyper involved imagination and imaginative experiences

Mental illness works just as well

A bit on the nose, but I love this song SO much. That bassline lives rent-free in my head.

When Korn came out, absolutely no one on the radio sounded like them. For good or ill, they changed metal.

Everything else you can pretty much just read a summary of on wikipedia and call it good. *shrugs*

Now, if you want to know more about ~religion~, I highly recommend Karen Armstrong! Start with "A History of God."
And almost none of it's interesting.

The only book of the Bible I recommend is Song of Solomon (or Song of Songs, depending on which version you choose). Religious scholars like to say it's an allegory but it's straight-up erotic poetry.
I was gonna stop smoking today but fuck that shit, there's a pig tryna diss me.
I shoulda went to the good gas station that bakes their own brownies but, alas! I forgot about them until literally just now.
Seven (7) hours later I am home with a fudge round. Which is not a brownie but is as close as I could find at the gas station.

(Do NOT come into my mentions talking about the abomination that is the cosmic brownie. NO. Bad human!)
I dunno, I only heard it over the phone. It was GLORIOUS.

some things may not be reclaimed, like memories of wonderment and misplaced comfort, but new things happen, like filthy amounts of rum and the promise of a new beginning.
Regular reminder that when I worked on the tech helpline in college, I actually convinced someone to kick their computer.
My favourite academic / IT story involves a phonecall to our IT support:

Support: Hi, Alex. How are things?
Alex: Fine thanks.
Support: So, what can I do for you?
Alex: It's my computer.
Support: What's wrong with it?
Alex: It's on fire?.......What do I do?
