This, i didn’t really feel isolated until everything “opened up.” Now i can’t know if anywhere/anyone is safe and when I do go out it’s nothing but side eye for my mask…

A small black void kitten is perched on a persons head looking out across some out of frame expanse. They are framed by a blue sky although the light clouds behind them starts to make it appear as they have their own glow. The person is incidental to the photo, their face cut off at the nose at the bottom of the frame. They are trying but can never see the top of their own head.
It has to be this one:
RIP Zach…
A garage workbench constructed out of kitchen cabinets before this weekend’s “carpentry” (but after I cleaned the pile of wood scrap and detritus off it). It is mostly cleaned off although to the right there is still a random assortment of tools and stuff. This is the work area that came with the house almost 4 years ago.
The same workbench but now with worktop built up approximately 3 inches with a gap for a miter saw that I’ve been using on the garage floor for the last six months. There’s now a continuous surface to place and cut wood without killing myself crouched on the floor and propping up wood on small bits of 2x4. Not shown is me crying about needing to finish cleaning to make room for the tools I’m about pre-inherit from my father now that he’s decided he’s mostly done doing any sort of wood working…
I have begun to evolve into my ultimate form as Daddo:
Oh no!
Sorry friend.
Sorry about that, I thought I had corrected the projection coordinate bug…
What else are we going to do? Give up on pretending we’re actually going get some sleep and make an omelette or something? My alarm doesn’t go off for another 90 minutes: gotta maximize my rest!

NEW ARTICLE! NEW ARTICLE!!
Ever wonder ~why~ so many Western stories about samurai all tell you a story about someone who really, really, really likes honor? Where did that come from? And why is it so pervasive? What are samurai movies really about?

Convenience?
Oh no!
“They said it couldn’t be done!”
Today continued the theme of absolute shitbaggery but partner person loves me enough that my dinner of katsu pork curry is inbound so that’s one nice thing…
It’s been a long 2020 and “ANSI” was not coming to my brain…
I swear to god eventually I’m going to have regular friends again, not need to vague skeet about the horrors public and private and I don’t know if that will cause my head to explode…
Same, also isn’t it supposedly the “portable” version?
I am so very fucking tired 100% everything deciding to be as infuriatingly fucking stupid as possible.
I am a nice lady. I try to be patient, I try to be forgiving and kind. I know people are complex and things are often less clear-cut than they may appear.
This one isn't. If you consume Harry Potter, in any form, in 2026 you are a pathetic, detestable, spineless wretch and deserve to be hated.
It’s Long Covid Awareness Day (which I think should be the Ides of March, for reasons that will become clear.)
Some of you have heard this before. But I wanted to share my Long Covid story, because I think you should hear it.
On my birthday in November 2022, I woke up with Covid.
Well, the stupid dentist appointment has used up all my fucks for the day: too bad I have to go back to work…
I knew I was a tool
I’m not sure what this means for me. Should I be worried or am I simply too powerful with the power of a structured query language?
It’s great (derogatory) that you can work very hard to find out something incredibly important, and the main response you will get is a derisive “Gee, I’m shocked.”
Somebody has to ACTUALLY DO THIS WORK! You can’t pursue justice by going “Your honor: I mean, duh.”
To think that I quit social work because the funding roller coaster was too stressful…
We did end up with a lot of kawaii chopsticks…
And that’s how I ended up working part time at a Hello Kitty kiosk and the Gap when I was laid off at the end of the dot com bubble. I couldn’t even find someone to try and exploit me…
