Sometimes I watch a TV show or movie, read a book, or hear a song, and I get that jolt of inspiration every writer waits for. K-Pop Demon Hunters is an inspiration overload.

I bought this, totally not to put dice in, two weeks ago. It arrived today (several days early), and it's broken. The box looks partially crushed, and the nose cap is shattered. It took me literally less than two minutes, and a new one will be here by March 2.

Old Josh had a rough sleep last night. He wasn't sick or anything; it was just that his mind was racing. He suspects that without his medication, he'd be in the middle of a hard manic phase. This is why he takes his meds even though they make him tired. Boils and Ghouls, mental illness is a bitch.

When it comes to laptops, I don't believe I will ever buy anything but a Lenovo ThinkBook again. This is hands down the best computer I've ever used or owned.

Besides this being complete bullshit, I have one main question. Who is supposed to pay for these "Official Papers" that are mandatory to exercise our constitutionally guaranteed right to vote?

You don't understand, I had to buy this. I needed it... for reasons!

WEDNESDAY Deluxe 6-inch Articulated Figure, 11-Pieces, Interchangeable Face Plates and Fashion, Customizable Collectible Figurine, Kids Toys for Ages 3 Up by Just Play
Fans of Wednesday Addams, infuse your existence with a tinge of melancholic glee with the Wednesday Deluxe Figure 9-piece set. Inspired by the hit TV series, this stylized, 6-inch poseable Wednesday doll is sculpted with exaggerated features and comes with 2 interchangeable face plates, so you can switch her expressions between iconic side-eye and wide-eyed stare. She comes with 2 hairstyles and a cat-eared headband, for even more customization. Ultra-cool Wednesday wears a stealth-goth outfit straight from the morbid teen’s wardrobe: oversized black hoodie, striped tee, black knee socks, and platform sneakers. Pose Wednesday with her cello and bow on the black, embossed spiderweb base, and perch the mini Thing figure on the music stand to set the stage for an imaginary nocturnal sonata. The Wednesday Deluxe collectible toy figure makes an excellent birthday or anytime surprise for collectors, fans of Wednesday and the Addams Family, and kids ages 3 years and up.

I thought that my favorite scene was when Max stepped out in the NCR power armor and marched forward to do battle with the deathclaws. But I was wrong. My fav is when Max is ready to go unarmored against them, and the NCR shows up. I admit, I choked up.
