They do that a LOT. Especially when they know it's me on the intercom.

*intercom whistle*

"Yes, Starfleet HR? We have a problematic replicator."
(pause)
"No really! It's a replicator, but it's become sentient."
(pause)
"Please stop laughing, this is serious. Now it's handing out psychoactive drugs like candy."
(pause)
"Hello? Anyone there? Frackin' hell..."

Me too.

My friends that is. I'm fairly sure our social circles don't overlap save for online...

Given the shit I've gone through this year, I'm profoundly grateful for each and every one though. 🫶

That was me yesterday. Constantly hungry. Today? Could take food or leave it. Kinda weird, but I just go with the flow.
December 10, 2025 at 7:26 AM
Ditto.

My dental crowns groan at the mere thought of eating caramels.

Alternate translation: "Sam, tell us without using the exact words that you had a traumatic childhood defined primarily by neglect, ignorance, and abandonment issues. Because literally every human who existed before a few years ago was raised without your quasi-AI LLM thingy."

Amazing. And beautiful, too.
December 10, 2025 at 4:13 AM
The whole thing makes me want to hurl 24/7. Sheer fucking evil these bastards are.

Potato, po-tah-toe.

The galley was out of corn on the cob, so I improvised.

Both those problems can be addressed by precision transporter operations, whether you go with the corncob solution or not. (Surprisingly, it works for both!)

See me after your shift so we can discuss both details and...appropriate compensation.

I'm just...flabbergasted.

And reminded that JFK reportedly refused to wear a gifted cowboy hat because he thought it'd demean the office of President.

This is not how grown adults behave. This is the mind of a demented, feral child.

Yep. Many times. Many, many times.
December 9, 2025 at 4:58 AM
I do that quite often. Last night was an egg white omelet w/veggies and cheese.

I'm adulting. No rules on what I can eat when.
December 9, 2025 at 4:57 AM
Believe me, I sympathize. 🫶

They are marvelous, aren't they? Sometimes I keep going beyond what I planned and/or should in a workout just to keep that buzz going.

Ice + immobilization (if possible) is the usual treatment for a jammed or smashed finger, but keep an eye on it, 'kay?

(Advice from a serially clumsy gal. 😉)

The simplest answer is to ask them to name a single pro or amateur sports athlete who happens also to be trans.

I'm pretty sure the answer is statistically zero.

It is, CC. Love your art.
December 6, 2025 at 6:22 PM
Oh, no question whatsoever.

Love his poetry, too.

🤔 Hmm... I'd have to move to Chicago for the duration though.

You're still chuckling over that snickerdoodle recipe, aren't you? *snerk*

I've been expecting roughly this, which is why I made an extra effort this past summer to catch up on every vaccination I'm supposed to have at my age.
December 3, 2025 at 3:57 PM
You can do it, hon. I believe in you. 🫂
December 3, 2025 at 10:41 AM
Well, yes, we all have our crosses to bear.
