Aaaaand I'm live with the final age of my #CivilizationVII playthru as the peace-loving, totally-not-a-pirate Blackbeard!

....I may have lied a bit. I'm REALLY pirate-y.

Come join us!

At 12:30PM, join me for the final age of our #CivilizationVII run as Blackbeard!

We were SUPER NICE and NOT AT ALL plunder-y to our neighbors in the exploration age, so I'm sure they will be HAPPY to be friends in this one...

See you soon!

Welp.

After testing on multiple computers and with different cords, it appears my Logitech brio cam is kaput.

RIP, friendo. Time to look for a new pet cam (because right now I'm using PJ's camera for the pets, LOL)

Finally completed my base set of the Darks at the end of October. Had major surgery on Nov 7 & can't get any tats for 18 months...but I'll be adding to them once I'm cleared.

I purposefully made the Summoning Dark more faded/scrawled than the other. I think it works.

And I'm live, with one (1) new bionic hip and one (1) sassy kitten, diving into the world of piracy as Blackbeard in #CivilizationVII!

Come join us!

Surprise!

At around (ish) noon EST, join me for a short stream starting a run as Blackbeard in #CivilizationVII!

Since it is my first stream back after surgery, it won't be too long as I can't sit in chairs for extended periods, but I need to conquer the world!

So I did the thing before I chickened out (or came to my senses) and threw up a GFM as a stop gap measure. I hate doing it more than anyone will hate seeing another fund raiser.

Anxiously posting a day one post-surgery proof of life with a completely makeup-free pic.

My makeup is less vanity and more armor (even against my own brain); So while some may think it vapid, or "unnecessary", remember that people don't wear their makeup for YOU.

Also yes I know I'm translucent

I know I'll feel better at some point, but right now I'm in so much pain I can't even sleep.

Le sigh.

I joked with the anesthesiologist to "play some #FinalFantasy orchestral music" when I got to the OR

When they wheeled me in, she started playing the FF7 main theme. 😭

Hospital for Special Surgery in NYC and all their staff are fantastic.

Out of surgery. They gave me my phone and tablet because the ADHD goblins making brain go brrrr.

I bet I'll be SUPER GOOD at crosswords right now.

I haven't yet gotten around to updating my @throne.com
