Just a NJ-Expat stranded in the land of Okie. One of “Them Dirty Libruls.” Cat caretaker. Nerd. Gamer. Funny, if only in my own mind.

"The rewriting and the ignoring were done not just by Confederates, but also by putative allies for whom the reduction of Black people to serfdom was the unfortunate price of white unity."

Contemplating getting a badge for #GenCon2025. I have the time and money, but no friends to go with, and possess a social anxiety that makes attending such big things weird. I have to make a decision before Sunday, since that’s when badges become available.

Every time I see a “Jesus Was A Refugee” commercial during football, all I can think is that the ‘Religious Right’ voted for the fucker that is swearing to deport anyone whose skin is darker than milky-white.

Korea Expert here. I’ll explain what’s going on over there because the Orient can be confusing to Westerners. In Korea, there is a concept known as “the law.” (법) This is a set of rules which are enforced to encourage prosocial behavior and ensure stability which leaders aren’t allowed to break.

Turkey Day Holiday will be solitary for the Macca. This is okay. Gives me time to clean up a room or two, then properly waste time with football watching and Zombie-grinding. #AMaccaThanksgiving

Halfway through the front-end travel phase of #WorkAdventureOhio, boarded on my flight from Charlotte-Douglas to Columbus John Glenn. I am frankly surprised at the amount of folks filling this Airbus up to go to the land of the Bluejacket. #LearningSomethingNew

I have been remiss in my fledgling posting, oh 9 followers on Bluesky. Today I am packing up for a business trip to Columbus that starts in four hours. Thankfully said packing is not intensive. But prepping the Derp Pride for my five day absence is gonna be a task. Will miss these furry idiots.

The cat may not have been too interested in the game, but Saquon Barkley just got his second long TD run to essentially put the game out of reach. 25-10 Birds with less than five minutes left.

He said he was going to buy 55,000 Bibles with taxpayer money and force every public school teacher to teach from it. Now he’s holding a $60 Trump Bible for his official announcement. Christian Nationalist Grifting.

15-20 until #Eagles take on the #Commanders. Birds on a good run and now it’s a tilt for the outright division lead. No predictions here, since that just bites a fan on the ass. :)
