For some reason the X-Men animated series theme fits perfectly with the Garfield and Friends intro.

This has become a staple of our family Thanksgivings! I adjusted just slightly to make it vegetarian to accommodate some family members, but it's still always a hit.

Reposting in case the guy outside the grocery store this morning who I watched toss a lit cigarette towards a display of dying wreaths happens to be one of my 7 followers.

Blocking people is good and fine and we do it all the time in real life. We just stop talking to people or going to those places or moving to a new town.

Only on the internet where analytics = money is blocking people suddenly a moral crime.

Calling them morons is fun too.
But block is better.

I just learned that Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. An alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform (and yes it's really easy to transfer your lists from Goodreads to StoryGraph). You know, while we're moving things.

Life is short. Write that novel. Paint that painting. Try new recipes. Learn black magic. Go into the forest at night. Summon a demon. Earn that demon's trust. Become best friends with it. Brag to everyone else about your new cool demon best friend. Knit that sweater.

Hi all - as someone who rarely used Twitter even pre-Musk, I decided to give this a go to help boost a Twitter alternative. Seems lovely so far, excited to be here!

Be ready for nerd nonsense and bad puns.
