Apologizing to your friends for being an attention whore and promising you’ll stop and then *immediately* ordering fajitas.

¿Kiss from arroz? Are you telling me Seal made out with this rice???
Current depression level: everything is terrible, I’m overstimulated, broke, overwhelmed. My car is at the shop. I’m stuck at my apartment with no way to deal with recycling or moving stuff to storage like I planned. Mystery hunt is… a lot… and I’m a shit puzzle author. Work is quiet… too quiet. I assume I’m losing my job to AI soon. I’m just bouncing back and forth between “don’t know why I got out of bed today” to “there aren’t enough hours to do everything” and no attempt at rest is enough.

Take me home

Made it home safe and sound, with the caveat that I have some combination of outdoor allergies from Boston, indoor allergies from the Dave Cave, and mild con crud/travel whatever that’s making me sneeze endlessly.
Had a great time with the team working on writing and testing puzzles and things for mystery hunt, as well as seeing other homies from XOXO Fest and the puzzle community at large.
Today marks 15 years without a colon. The body dysmorphia depression train keeps on chuggin' along...

K-pop Stans disgust me, like wtf can’t you just use a regular coffee maker and scoop the grounds into a filter like a normal person? K-pops are so wasteful and put so much plastic into our landfills all in the name of single servings of coffee.
Still sick and still dealing with depression. The sinus problems are a little less terrible but I’m still feeling the pressure of juggling too many things with too few brain cells available.

Thinking about this track from Ye and Ms. Lauryn Hill called “I Can’t Wait” that I heard on the radio near St. Louis.
- Ye’s verses were kinda meh
- I think I want to hear Ms. Hill cover “You Can’t Hurry Love” in its entirety now.
- People tell me to stop being mean to myself a lot, but if you can’t hurry love, doesn’t that include self-love as well?
Fun new song for staying at a motel on vacation:
(To the tune of “if you’re happy and you know it”)
🎵 there’s a clown in the shower in your room
🤡 there’s a clown in the shower in your room
🎶 since your daddy didn’t check
🔪 now your whole family goes to heck
🚿 there’s a clown in the shower in your room
I was just brutally assaulted by a radio station saying “time for another classic rock block” and then playing a Green Day song.

Stop and look at the thing.
Go down all the rabbit holes.

@aparrish @jalefkowit plot twist, it’s going to be spun as a transphobia false flag event where they say that the liver identified as a spleen and use this event as an excuse to hurt more trans people and further erode civil rights

@xoxo thanks for the memories!
I was just telling a neighbor about Cabel’s 2024 talk the other day and this was a good reminder to send him the link.

@argyleink@front-end.social arguably straddling the line but the IDE in PICO-8 for making games is cozy. Ditto Picotron.
And I tried making my web app for generating RPG maps from artist tiles feel cozy, but it’s also borderline game rather than software: https://davesmapper.com

@ZLabe@fediscience.org weird that it’s averaging closer to baseline near Roswell, NM. Aliens???

"Sorry if you think you’re too good for public transportation. You’re clearly not good enough at driving to have a license, so suck it up, buttercup."
YES! THIS!

I guess sometimes it takes driving for several hours through empty desert to have the brain space to process what a useless piece of shit and drain on society I am.
Last night I got forced out of my motel room backwards in my underwear and then handcuffed and interrogated by Albuquerque PD because some dude thought the guy that stole his jeep was in my room…
No knock, straight to loudspeaker and telling me to come out with my hands up. Then after they verified my info and checked everything, they let me out of the cuffs and said I was free to go, and I was like… “y’all had me come out in my underwear with no key or glasses…”
I write sins not tragedies but it’s “I chime in with haven’t you people ever heard of… COOKIES FOR BREAKFAST?!” “Cooooooookie crisp!”
I’m 320lbs on the Kinsey scale.
My love life is like the commuter rail:
- Run a train on it
- Wish more people would ride it
- Kinda tight inside
- The caboose is loose
- ::robotic text to speech announcer voice:: *the 8:00 train to Providence is now boarding on track 3*
- Conductor fucktor

@besties@social.besties.house @GroupNebula563@mastodon.social I’m told by my sources across enemy lines that the heteros heard this announcement and now they’re using something called “straights-only version-control network” and they’re using the acronym for it (svn) as a command line tool now. 🤮
