My cat Goblin is very excited about his new carrier. He has basically refused to leave it since I assembled it yesterday.

Bolara, my Orc wizard. Everyone assumes she's a necromancer because of the goth aesthetic, but she's actually a metal elementalist.

The top 10 biggest metros in the US. They not what you think!
If you look at this list and think "hey! my is bigger than that," you're part of why a lot of red state voters feel neglected by the @democrats.org. Why aren't there Dem rallies in Houston, DFW, Miami, Phoenix?

Also, was there some sort of factor that influenced how much wealth the lower and middle class had in 1985? Some sort of measure to make sure that the wealthy were still paying a fair share? (Chart is for returns filed in April 1986, so covers the 1985 fiscal year.)

Hiring more devs, writers, and artists, paying them more, and treating them better (no crunch, etc.) will get games made so much faster and better than LLMs will.

I don't know why it's so hard for conservatives to even pretend to have American values. This poster is from 1949, and is just as relevant today as when it was originally printed.

I'm sorry @democrats.org, but alienating the working class and the left just to chase fence-sitter Republicans is NEVER going to work. Go stump in Rust Belt and Bible Belt, emphasize how weird, gross, privacy-invading, and rights-violating basically every Trump policy is. Stop chasing McCains.

Tonight's @fridaytea.com is Maple Houjicha (www.fridaytea.com/products/map...). It's really tasty! My partner is Canadian, and the maple makes me think of them, so I really enjoy it. (I might have steeped it a mite too hot, at 195° F instead of the recommended 180° F, but it still tastes good.)

This evening's tea is Hot Buttered Yum (www.fridaytea.com/products/hot...) from @fridaytea.com. It's *very* aromatic; you can strongly smell the toffee and butter rum. The flavor is not quite so overwhelming, though. I like it. It would be great on a rainy day. Might get more of this next winter.

Tonight's tea is @fridaytea.com's Lavender Earl Grey (www.fridaytea.com/products/lav...). It's bright and classic, exactly what you'd expect from the name. The lavender aroma is very strong, and this tea is exactly what I needed to soothe my migraine tonight.

Drinking @fridaytea.com's Haunted Maze tonight. www.fridaytea.com/products/hau...
The combo of puer tea and oolong tea is interesting. It gives the flavor a complexity I wouldn't have expected, and the white sage adds a fun smokiness. I really like this one. Definitely going on my list to get again.

No Man's Sky, my cat Goblin, and @fridaytea.com's Nepali Silver Yeti (www.fridaytea.com/products/nep...) makes for a lovely, chilly afternoon. The tea is quiet and subtle, but also pleasant and fragrant, and makes me think of winters around the wood stove in my grandfather's cabin in Colorado.
