Someone at Pixar knew what I liked and designed that scene for me.

And I grew into that role over those six weeks.

It was a complete personality-shift.

And you can't know what will happen until it does. And it's different for everyone.

Some of my best friends went the other way and became douchebag, supervillains.

Again, with garbage trucks full of my own baggage... I showed up (a day late) and was instantly appointed the "Work Dad" and "assigned" my "Work-Wife" who was stationed at a COLO unit... because they had deigned her "Work Mom."

I was one of the most "decrepit" E6s in the Coast Guard (mostly due to HYT and some personnel tweaks that landed me there) and when I made Chief, I was not the Chief that I thought I would be. I felt was feeling my way through it the first six months. When I got to the CPO Academy...

Just to correct the record: I followed you on Twitter first and I have never, once posted Mrs. Incredible's can on my timeline here or there... because that's a cherished secret that I've kept to myself all these years.

But, now that you've mentioned it publically...

Gurl... that is too much dragon-slaying to just drop on the Skyline like that.

They're 2 tacos for $2 that ran in the early-00s was a killer deal.

There was a JitB across the street from the bar I used to frequent in the 00's, in Alameda, with some really interesting characters; and the routine was "get smashed, get two tacos (or four)" and head beck into the fray.

Honestly the best place to do that if you don't have a Jack-'n-the-Box nearby.

I wonder if Bigfoot has a humanoid-shaped dong or if it's shaped differently...

Anyways, good night!

The first thing I did when I joined Bluesky was to block that phrase.

I'm not nearly high enough to understand that logic.

Good on you, Dan.

The promise of access (and the money that comes with that) is never worth the cost to what it does to your soul. Ever. Never ever.

This is the person who posted a snarky statement or a meme, that you chose to follow, without doing your due-diligence.

Just foreshadowing...

When it comes to politicians eating pizza, especially with NY-style pizza... I don't trust anyone who comes away from it not having pizza-sauce glazing their face, looking like they ate out Mrs. Chef Boyardee's pussy.

I draw the line there, because the grease, sauce, and cheese are unpredictable in their motions... if you order an actual, good, properly-prepared, slice of NY pizza.

Sure, with a Pizza Hut slice, yeah. Don't spill. But a proper NY-slice? I want to see it get messy on a bitch to know it's real.

I can already smell the aftermath and there's better ways to get protein. Do what the old people do (and what I did when I was competitively swimming) and drink Ensure.

It's time I put on the Sabrina Carpenter album I bought a month ago and never opened. The oppressive fog of gloom and doom needs a shining beacon to peek through; and a really horny, slutty album is just such a spotlight of hope and joy.

I want a President who can eat a slice of pizza without a fork and a knife. Fake-ass New Yorker.

They're giving a guy who runs a company that built a machine that parses through data and uses it for really unethical purposes access to their ID so that the unethical machine can pinpoint exactly who requested (let's be honest about who is going to use this and what for) unethical content. Genius!

I've been noodling about this, but not "this," all day in regards to my tomfuckery during the waning days of my military career.

It's really all about being strategically dickish. There's still a series of rules and an order. You just have to find clever ways to get away with as much as you can.

Badgers and raccoons get treats from me because they keep the hedgehogs and opossums out of my yard. Not that they aren't charming in there own, special way.
