When my daughter gets picked on at school I’m gonna tell her, “there is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”

Now that I deliver food for a living, I’ve come to believe any restaurant called “such-and-such family restaurant” is probably a shithole in the back end.

The four horsemen of social media are ai, sexism, racism and thirst traps.
Sexism and racism should just be “bigotry” and id get transphobia too, but what would be the 4th, then?

I started #starwars: #HeirtotheEmpire, having read it in middle school. I loved it then and since #timothyzahn will be at #c2e2 I was hoping to get my hardbound copy signed and chat a little with him about it. However, I’m just not as into it now, 30 yrs later. Maybe I’m
Just not as into Star Wars.

Is there an orthodox, religious way to celebrate #stpatricksday? Something other than “drink heavily, wear green.”

Today I finished a volume of #ElricofMelnibone stories. Fun, dark, brooding adventure pulp. Now I want to play a Drow hexblade storm sorcerer. But the last few stories had jarring plot holes & I was ready to move on. 4 of 5 swords.

Having finished some Shakespeare and Jules Verne, I concluded that all books written before 1900 are dogshit.
However, having finished #thepictureofdoriangray, I’m pleased to revise my assessment. The book is beautiful. Wilde’s wordplay is sublime if sometimes hard to follow. 4 indulgences out of 5.

Posting book reviews was all I used Facebook for and it’s all that’s missing here. So I’m gonna start up again here.

Just finished book 5 of #dungeoncrawlercarl, The Butcher’s Masquerade. Never heard a book iskai before and am excited for the next one. More of an adventure than a comedy, but the series is getting funnier. Relieved that Cultural refrences dont feel like cheap points ala Family Guy. 5 out of 5 feet.
