I have to figure out how to meet Bill Lawrence one day. Just finished Shrinking, man. It doesn't matter what show this guy does; it's always comedy and emotional punches woven together in the best ways. It's inspirational.

My girlfriend and I drink 25 disgusting soda pops ranging from Unicorn Yak to Ranch Dressing to Eagle Fang. 3 were actually good.

I really need to look for opportunities to do D&D again. That was one of my favorite activities during the pandemic, and I had one of the best DMs ever, but my group fell apart due to personality conflicts. D&D is such a great hobby. I just wish it were easier to find groups.

I know many of you dislike politics, but I'll be honest, I needed tonight. I needed to be reminded that most Americans didn't want this orange nightmare we are in. That people were willing to show up at the polls, not just on social media, to push back on the 1937 referendum. Keep resisting.

As a reminder, especially now with SNAP benefits turned off, if and when you see someone stealing food, no, you didn't, shut up and walk away.

Yes. People who are willing to support monsters from the shadows are the worst kind of monsters themselves. If you are willing to support someone in private, you should also be willing to vouch for them in public; otherwise, you are a coward with an agenda that prioritizes only your own interests.

When are celebrities AND streamers going to realize *not* speaking *is* still speaking?

Yes. You'll keep fans who don't want to hear about politics. You'll keep the people who want to stick their heads in the sand. But when you refuse to take a stand against healthcare being taken from grandma...

My heart goes out to all of those at Twitch who lost their jobs today because Amazon thinks AI can do it better.

I got my start streaming cuz someone saw value in me as a disabled person with a fresh perspective that needed to be heard. I had 0 followers. 0 CCV. What made me different was who I am

I bet I can make you hear audio with just text:

Autobots! Transform and roll out!

As SNAP programs are cut nationwide, it amazes me how many people are saying, "Good. They'll have to get off their asses and work if they want to eat," completely ignoring the 11,000,000 disabled people on those programs who would absolutely love to be out working, but can't. Where is your empathy?

Gonna tell my kids this is AI.

After being forced to "upgrade" to Win 11, I find @microsoft.com Dragon Naturally Speaking won't work unless I upgrade to 16 for $700. Without Dragon, it took me 15 min. to type this. So, I have no choice. God bless disability tax. Beware, fellow disabled peeps.

Fellow disabled content creator & nerd, Ralph Garcia, made an amazing Horror comic book called The Last Outpost - "Survival has a cost. In the new world, trust could be your greatest weapon—or your final mistake."

To support, I'm giving away a few copies. Check below to win.

It's a privilege to talk with @tylerscheid.com, especially when he invites me to speak about inclusion on GMFST. It's easy to think that accessibility is in a place to be forgotten, but not on our watch! www.instagram.com/p/DPmv0VsApR9/

The gospel of Baz:

Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself

Remember the compliments you receive; forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Those who are 35+, what advice do you have for people just entering their 30s?

The one thing I always wonder when an artist releases a new album and it doesn't hit quite the same is "is it me? Am I getting older and less receptive to new music? Or am I just not a this song enjoyer?"

Welp, I kept getting weird @tiktok_us errors and now I'm locked out of my account. Since their support is not answering me, I have to rebuild. Here is the link if you wouldn't mind giving it a follow, www.tiktok.com/@steveinspawn

I tried to convince her to let me ramp up into the flatbed, but she said weird things like that was "probably illegal" and "I don't randomly carry plywood, STEVEN." Excuses! You have to take advantage of fun situations like this when they appear. You know what they say, here today, gourd tomorrow.

It's that time of year again when everything tastes like pumpkin. We're getting ahead of the trend by visiting a quaint little farm for some cider. Enjoy this classic while I farm some likes.

Some people will tell you that standing under a giant, spiky, glass Sun is intimidating. Some say that this could have crushed me like a bug. Those people would be correct but I did it anyway. #DoWhatIWant

So, is the scheduled Rapture cancelled for Tuesday since Kimmel is coming back, or do I still need to pack?
