So I was going to escort my friend’s teenaged daughter to the Stray Kids movie this afternoon, but she’s sick. Char has enthusiastically stepped in so the tickets don’t go to waste. We’re either going to look like two cool aunt types, or two old frosted flakes who wandered into the wrong theatre.

My friend is having a birthday celebration later today, so I made him a present -- his favourite DnD creature. He is a DnD fan and actually DM'd the last long campaign I ran Dandy in.

I’m not an Olympics person, but seeing clips and hearing the crowd cheering so loudly for Canada made my little heart skip two whole beats.

I started BG3 origin runs twice over the past couple of months. Really tried. But everything felt off without Tav there, so I didn’t end up getting very far. The companions need Tav. And by Tav, I mean Dot. The companions need Dot. They need that daft little bat. Holes in their souls without her.

I went out with a friend - one of the people I dedicated Monster Mender to - and he told me that it’s the first time he’s ever had a book dedicated to him. I blurted out “Really?” Because he’s a wonderful person who should have dozens of books dedicated to him. A lot of you probably should, too. 💗

So yesterday I had my first proper session with a psychotherapist who works with late-diagnosed, neurodivergent adults and is also neurodivergent herself. I can't even begin to tell you how being understood felt, even if just for an hour. I was a mess, but a temporarily happy, briefly relaxed mess.

Other thought-terminating clichés:
"Let people enjoy things"
"You care about this too much"
"It is what it is"
"Here we go again"
"It's fine, bro"

How often have you seen someone say "it's not that deep" or "it's just a game/movie" on social media? Those sad phrases are examples of what are called thought-terminating clichés and they're deployed to shut down intellectual inquiry and kill curiosity.

Love Chappell but have we truly considered the cultural implications of turning absolutely everyone and everything in pop culture (regardless of their values or messages) into a machine gun-toting avatar who's dropped into a kill-or-be-killed scenario?

I’ve not done it since I was a kid, but I’m semi-watching Oliver! right now and I still don’t understand so many years later why this thing is over three hours long.
I do remember Kid Me being incredibly disturbed that I found the murderous piece of shit villain attractive. Physically, I mean.

I've taken the paywall off this eulogy I wrote for my magical, mysterious ex-stray cat George - who died last year - in case anybody would like a read.
It was very, very hard to write but I think it might be my favourite thing I’ve ever written about cats.

Night Lights in the Desert Highlands. One of my favorite spots on the game. Also for my main Enya given this place has quite a significant meaning to her for multiple reasons.

Today is Mad Pelagius Day, which means it's Sheogorath's Summoning Day! Today you can ask Sheogorath over to discuss any number of things, and even request services from him if you're brave enough. Or you could just share a cup of tea and some nice cheeses together, your choice.
