I needed this after reading real news. Thank you.

I am so sad for these people.

The interesting thing is I could make the argument that the magic virus variant is the same as Anne Rice’s.

I remember reading a fever dream of a book when I was a teenager called Vampire Virus- I feel like I recall that book addressing voiding the digestive tract as well. It’s certainly addressed in some places…

It’s the kind of theory that makes me want to write again.

Just wanted to say that “ambilateral” is an awesome word.

That is a hot take.

Then you got something even better than a laugh!

You got to experience wonder!

I guess that would be like that to someone who didn’t play just a ton of Animal Crossing. I didn’t even notice!

I don’t feel anger very often (and it’s very quick to vanish) and hate is extremely hard-won, but I have C-PTSD from childhood abuse and neglect. So I’m not your average person.

They missed the melancholy.

Lot of hanging around in graveyards, consulting mediums, wandering the moors in the rain, and sitting in a gloomy room writing or reading.

That’s the kind of wife I’d be.

…I am a degenerate.

I’m judging it because we have better technology and I feel like if this is what someone wants, they should have the ability to get a hologram by now.

He’s one of those German cannibals!

I’m in an ethical pickle.

Luigi, Luigi, who can I turn to?
You give me something I can hold onto!
Things can’t stay the way that they were before
It’s time to put some villains up on the wall!

Luigi I got your number!
I think it’s hero time!
Luigi don’t change your number!

Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!

Luigi Luigi you’re the guy for me
Oh, you don’t know me but you make me so happy. I tried to free you but I lost my nerve. I said “nullification” but I got censored

Luigi I got your number. I think it’s hero time. Luigi don’t change your number

Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!

I got it (I got it) I got it
Put those assholes on the wall!
I got it (I got it) I got it
For the good of, for the good of us all!

Luigi, Luigi who can we turn to
(Four six one six two five oh)
To know our pain, we can always turn to you. (Four six one six two five oh)

You need the rest of it:

See?

My friends call this my “brightside bullshit” but it is a power. No matter what awful thing happens, I can say, “I know this can’t kill me,” and that’s pretty good.

…admittedly some things, you’d rather they kill you, but luckily, most of those are behind us. So! Prepared to deal with anything.

Mine made me capable of surviving almost anything. Which is terrible. But you can spin that, for your resume.

I’ve been using stuff like “capable in a changing environment” and “adept at multitasking” to mean “I have CPTSD and ADHD” for years.

So grateful.

The lower pixels trend is just awful. Never understood it. Probably cuz I’m old.
