I normally don't get roped into YouTube shorts, but....
God dammit, this one's way better than it has any right to be.
Or maybe that's the grammarhound in me.

So as an apology for not having the drink I asked for, KFC sent along a glass of their 'Fiesta Fizz'. Which is basically a glass of Sprite and .... a cranberry 'bath bomb'.
It tastes really nice, though if you don't like carbonation, you're going to *hate* it, since it adds extra to the drink.

It's a 'Tin Man' kind of morning for me.
Every joint I have: "OIL ME! OOOIIILLL MEEEE!"
Unfortunately I have an eye appointment, so I can't take anything that might interfere with that. Which means any painkiller stronger than Tylenol. So it's the waiting game.

"I'm sorry" is a complete sentence.
"You're right" is a complete sentence.
"We need to fix this" is a complete sentence.
"You did great" is a complete sentence.
If you don't want to look like an ass, stop showing your 'but'.

I heard there was a Cohen song,
And all the Christians got it wrong,
But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?
‘Cause you see its about getting laid,
It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,
But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

I used to watch TV with my parents a lot, including 'non-kid-type' shows.
I remember how powerfully I gravitated to Spock, because on so many levels, as a then-undiagnosed asperger's/ASD child, *I got him*.
That's the easiest one, but also not the first one that came to mind...

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives.
If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜

So, TIL that 'backshot' doesn't just mean a stylistic picture taken from behind the target. Who knew?

Me: What's wrong with me tonight? I'm out of it, I'm groggy, I can't concentrate. What could it be?
My stomach: YOU HAVEN'T EATEN IN 20 HOURS YOU FUCKING DIPSHIT
Me: It's just a mystery.
