Hello, I'm Lizard, a twitter refuge. I'm a comp sci major working at a small town pizza shop in Ohio while I get through my degree. My primary interests are
- D&D and other TTRPGs, doing a Blades in the Dark game rn
- 3D printing, though I've been too busy to do it recently
- Volkswagen brainrot
I really like this image of by old car I took while trying to do some maintenance on it. Really conveys the vibe of "I am 4 hours into this 30 minute repair and I am so fucking done with this shit."

one of my favorite little facts about the restaraunt I work at is I know for a fact that place does not have any functioning fire alarms lmao

I have gotten so much smoke in that building before that I've had to put on every extractor fan for several minutes and go outside, and still no alarm.

modern gaming is so fucking wack. I can play a game that looks like it came out 7 years ago and somehow it lags on a machine I spent over 1,000 dollars on literally less than a year ago and we're supposed to act like it's perfectly normal

this might sound dumb, but honestly there's something I miss about having a car thats just an absolute fucking beater.

There's something freeing about driving a car so shitty that nobody cares if you break shit on it.

"I should get into woodworking" I think surrounded by a rusty shelf I've half sanded down, innumerable unfinished 3D printing projects, an unfinished soldering project, an entire car I need to replace the engine on, and unfinished notes from all of the studying I haven't done

I like that there's now the very specific ecological niche of animals that are extremely fucking good at stealing shit from humans.

the burnout leaving my body so that I can regain interest in my hobbies just in time to more efficiently procrastinate at studying my midterms

last night I rolled percentile to get a vibe for how strong a random explosive the party has was, and got a fucking 100

Anyways, a player character nearly died lmao

istfg I couldn't figure out why I couldn't level my 3D printer, and it turns out a fucking bolt securing the hotend was loose, so it was wiggling around too much

I thought I was just a dipshit who was incapable of leveling a 3D printer, but I guess not

just got a 2nd mk4 golf that doesn't run...

BUT its a GTI, and it was a really good deal, so I guess its time to start working on a mk4 again.

I'm about to buy a 2003 GTI so that I can have *two* mk4 volkswagen Golfs that don't run

The year is 2035. I meet President AOC in the Oval Office. "You've done well," she says. "By telling men to dress gay, you've lowered the population rate by 90%, thereby reducing carbon emissions." She slides me a manilla envelope. I can now afford a home in a walkable neighborhood

Drive my car halfway into a ditch, managed to back it out, and it started overheating due to snow piled up in the radiator

*then* the accessory belt (which drives the alternator) got broken off at some point, so interesting day

my boss is a very interesting figure politically. Like they're a conservative who has specifically stated to me that they respect socialists and communists more than liberals.

I love how janky and makeshift everything feels in 3D printing

Like I just stuck my filament in front of a space heater for several minutes and it drastically improved print quality

It's also very common for people to apply a gluestick to the print bed before printing to improve adhesion

it's a fascinating study into the minds of anime fans that evangelion ended up being the subject of decades long ship war, with people frothing at the mouth over which they want to fuck, when two characters have basically explicitly unhealthy sexual feelings for major adult figures in their life

apparently my partner described my gender to her friends as "like if a man was a la croix" lmaoo
