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.

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.

Korn, "Clown"

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 shoulda went to the good gas station that bakes their own brownies but, alas! I forgot about them until literally just now.

G. SaDiablo @sadiablo.bsky.social · 1h

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?

The Sanctuary
11x17 pen and paper
#surreal #macabre #PenAndPaper #TraditionalArt #DarkSurrealism #DarkArt #Art #InkSky #GrimDark

Pen drawing of a tall, slender feminine being made of black space with white symbols showing on the body and white ellipses in place of the face with an upturned crescent moon shaped headdress or horns with another circular one over the head in a 2/3 halo. This being is standing among several jet black tentacles in front of a large stone ruin with cathedral like overtones and lurking between the columns is a tentacled eldritch horror with several tentacles wrapped around and oozing between the columns with a gas giant looking planet several times the size of the moon in part of the sky visible in the upper right corner.

"Hi! Need anything?"

"No. *sits down across the room* Can I have some change and a coke?"

*banging head against the bar*

Me: Just that?
Customer: Yeah, and let me get some lottery tickets.

I swear sometimes I think my customers speak a language that sounds like English but whose words have different meanings.

G. SaDiablo @sadiablo.bsky.social · 8h

I seriously belly-laughed out loud and all my customers are staring at me. Good job! 😂
