Queer Trekkie Old Dude on a strange and difficult path.
Erklärbär.
I practice Buddhism because I'm terrible at it.
Autistic as a motherf***er.
I love humans, all of them, but humanity is a constant disappointment.

When all the sceptre'd crew
Have paid their Homage, due
The Guillotine
Let Freedom's flag advance
Till all the world, like France
O'er tyrants' graves shall dance
And PEACE begin.

I'd love a five-second-delay in comments here, like they use for live footage of events where people may say "fuck," because it would allow me to the typos I only see 1 second AFTER I type literally anything ever.

As my official responsibility as a duly designated Angel of Joy's Death, I am preemptively reminding people that Mark Kelly is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Exxon Mobil, supported Lord Dampnut's EPA pick, and supported the grossly inhumane Laken Riley Act.

So 86 Democratic cowards voted to condemn the "horrors of socialism" (and yes, the PA Turnpike is rough sometimes but horrors seems excessive). BUT. Two voted "present," the coward's way of cowardice.
Meaning 88 Democrats are closet fascists.
Nothing in fiction can ever be too obvious again.

PATTON: Well for one thing, Bill, they're being aggressively targeted at my friend's shows. And my shows when I let my "genius" friends perform. Also disabled people. Because people forget that I'm just a rich guy. BTW thanks for the opportunity to launder my image. Be sure to catch Dave in Riyadh!

Popped on here for about ten minutes and I'd like to request that every white dude do what I'm about to do:
Shut the f**k up for a few hours. Because holy hopping bollocking shite you guys are extra awful at the moment.

In a world of constant nightmare garbage trash moving at ten thousand knots, I'd love a new CRPG that can run on my potato and has lots of juicy weird lore without being a punishing slog.
Can I have this? Can i *buttons.* What the hell.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

The universe is inherently random, which means that when you apply human values to it, it is inherently unjust. We owe it to each other to try to balance the scales. This is something that the Democratic Party never comprehended, and certainly never cares about. A third way, or we're doomed.

Here's my most embarrassing secret: when I am sorting things alphabetically, I am always singing the Alphabet Song in my head. I can't stop it, and occasionally I sing it under my breath without knowing.
I am free now.

Still not accustomed to my new new physicality; how do you people deal with being *cold*? Being in the heat still sucks, but now the cold sucks too?!?
Off to smoke a pack of Pall Malls and eat six gallons of coffee ice cream.

Some well off or connected person should send us one of these Red Magic 11 Pros so we can own something really cool for a small business we hope to eventually open.
Also it looks so cool & could stand up to our clumsiness.
