Finally got to play Blue Prince (thanks to a birthday gift from a cutie) and holy FUCK I am hooked. I've said I don't like puzzle games for ages and this has me firing on all cylinders

Happy birthday to me! Here's to 33. The Kura x Kirby promo roll is deeply terrible, and the egg isn't even star shaped. A dire omen for the year to come.

Unemployment office sets appointment. They miss their appointment. Calling says they are too busy and have no appointments then hangs up. What a beautiful world. I just want to buy groceries, dawg.

Man, I'd consider going back on antidepressants, but I don't have insurance anymore. What a beautiful country I live in.

I finally finished the current Honkai Star Rail story and did the epilogue. Got enough jades for a pull and got Cyrene.

What a strangely beautiful way to end that story.

I did a phone screening with a recruiter who fully imagined qualifications on my resume and couldn't help me at all. "I see you're credentialed to teach in Texas?" Yeah, buddy, nailed it. Who wants to bet that's the result of an AI pipeline versus plain old being bad at a job?

It's funny to me that I can get an ABA job in less than 5 business days. Speaks a lot about the industry that it's predicated on churning and burning through behavior techs. Anywho: isn't searching for work in late-stage capitalism ft. facism grand?

I'm going to put a spell on you! The spell is, "we should play video games and eat candyyy!"

Thank you, Emmbunn!
Here comes the orb ponderer, ponderer of the orb! 🧙 a wizardly costume for @LikeAMetaphor.bsky.social! #bunnart

"I'd tell you what my costume is but you've probably never heard of it. Its underground."
Or I am lazy and want to wear comfy fall clothes at work today

I am fully convinced that I am cursed, and the curse is to never get Pokémon Shinies. In almost 30 YEARS of playing, I have found maybe 3 naturally. Why am I made to suffer?

Pokémon games and an 11th hour plot - name a more iconic duo. ZA has been fun but goddamn I crave something beyond this writing. Anyways, here's to trying to fill out the Pokédex!
