One of my favorite things to do is hype up the amazing people I’m lucky to count among my friends, and because I’ve been awfully negative lately (hard not to in the ceaseless hell of USA politics and so on) I’m going to get back to that.
This is entirely arbitrary. Pardon the typical chaos. 1/???

Oh no. We’ve stifled his mediocre centrist hem-hawing. What a true loss for comedy, which surely doesn’t have a dozen or so similar milquetoast centrist white geezers ready to do the same routine he does.
What a hack.
What a hack.
finally, an upside to the ongoing scourge of political violence

Panda Supplements could make the best stuff in the world and I’d still never go anywhere near them because they’re so eager to shit out product packaging so smothered in AI slop that they may as well be selling irradiated barrels of sewage.

Being a GM for any #TTRPG should be about facilitating what amounts to a shared imagination adventure with rules as guide rails.
It shouldn’t be some power trip punishment simulator for any and every way the table doesn’t play out some specific narrative you should’ve written as a novel.

I’d love to be excited for Vine being resurrected with a strict no AI policy, but Jack Dorsey is a whole herd of jackasses in a tech bro shaped vessel and for sure is using your nostalgia as a means to harvest and sell your data.

If you’re capable of creating ragebait for the views, imagine how much better you’ll feel taking the extra time to make something enjoyable that isn’t just pissing people off for clout and attention.
Just a thought.

Extra crispy levels of burnt out after this past weekend and fueled by spite, but I also came up with a silly little #CryptidCreeks holiday special (affectionately dubbed Cryptid Creeksgiving) to run tonight so that has me getting through the day.

If you ever feel compelled to give unsolicited advice to someone, online or otherwise, I’ve got a helpful tip.
Write that down. Nice, neat handwriting. Then roll it up like a scroll, close it with a nice piece of ribbon, and then stuff it so deep up your ass that you can taste the ink.

A Hundo Mighty Gardevoir, a shiny Mighty XXL Garchomp, a shiny Impidimp with atrocious stats, and a shiny Unown strong enough to fight God (along with some other solid Mighty Pokemon).
Not bad for one of these events. I normally have atrocious luck.

Being told someone to ‘get over it’ regarding Christmas music and themes encroaching on calendar space immediately after Halloween only to recently hear that same someone complaining about it has me molten hot with rage.

One thing that will, without fail, always annoy me down to a cellular level is when people lack basic communication skills.
Bonus points if you’re just “rough around the edges” and make zero effort to correct that.
That just tells me the person is an asshole who refuses to make an effort.

So many modern politicians are speedrunning the Whose Grave Will Be More of a Well-Used Toilet than Thatcher’s Challenge and you hate to see it but it couldn’t happen to a more ethically shitty bunch of scumbags and grifters.

Gonna be a killjoy for a moment in saying I don’t give a good golly fuck if Trump went down on Bill Clinton (what in the Internet hell is that even).
I care about the countless children who were treated like merchandise for use by some of the most powerful people in the world.

Out of context Hazbin Hotel spoilers ahead.

I know that language is confusing and that Hazbin Hotel is known to opt for being edgy, but the lyric is “I am the furor” which isn’t the same as “Führer.”
Vox is calling himself a manifestation of the collective anger and rage of Hell.

While I’m on the topic of media and the plagues it visits upon us:
A pox on you, Welcome to Derry, for resurrecting the fan theories that Mary Poppins and Pennywise are the same species.
By that reasoning, tying in the whole Mary Poppins is a Time Lord logic, Pennywise is also a Time Lord.

Room temperature take:
Media with a set ending that doesn’t meander on forever, no matter how beloved it becomes, is almost always better.
Dreamworks has this damn near down to a science for their shows.

There was a mass hysteria built around transgender people being "groomers" while emails between one of the most notorious sexual predators and human traffickers in history and the power elite of politics and business were just there. Absolutely disgusting.
As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

The abrupt jump from “Wow, I’m doing pretty damn good at this” to “Enjoy getting beaten to death by a vengeful god” in Pokemon Legends Z-A sure is something.

I don’t give a shit what the letter is after a politician’s name. If they engaged in any sort of assault, especially involving minors, they deserve the maximum penalties.
That includes darlings of the Dems. I don’t fucking care. Throw them in jail.
