I might have to cave and get Pragmata, not because the gameplay interests me but because it's probably the closest I'll ever get to fatherhood.
I don't even think I have the resources to adopt in this economy and even if I did, single-fatherhood in today's culture seems...

And just because we're workers,
no class can free us but our own.
The emancipation of the working class
is the task of the worker alone.
So left, two, three!
So left, two, three!
To the work that we must do!
March on in the Workers' United Front,
for you are a worker too!
And just because we're human,
we don't enjoy a pistol to our head
We want no servants under us,
and no kings overhead.
So left, two, three!
So left, two, three!
To the work that we must do!
March on in the Workers' United Front,
for you are a worker too!
And just because we're human
We need to keep our families fed and warm
Not bluster nor boasting can nourish them
Nor war keep them from harm
So left, two, three!
So left, two, three!
To the work that we must do!
March on in the Workers' United Front,
for you are a worker too!
And just because we're human,
we all would like a little bite to eat
we'll take no empty promises
that give no bread or meat
So left, two, three!
So left, two, three!
To the work that we must do!
March on in the Workers' United Front,
for you are a worker too!

I'm really not picky which one he's tried in, just as long as he's actually put on trial (though the last one would be the most fitting, tbh).
Some people need their trusted friends to break the news to them:
They need to shower more often. Please.
An Aussie tried to explain why Australia is so much safer than the US because the predators are all in certain places where not many people live. I just replied, "I know, in the US we elect ours so it's pretty awful." #epstein #trump #PDFs
I'm convinced that if the Punisher was real, the Republican Party would have already ceased to exist and he would be a national hero. That's how bad it is right now. #Punisher #politics #epstein
The meds are no longer enough to keep the depression at bay.
Sometimes depression hits, no matter how many meds you're on.
But at least the meds mean I'm not spiraling; just so very done.
My gf won't drink natural (not from concentrate) pomegranate juice because it looks like blood.
I don't understand the problem.
To be fair, Gustopher's reaction is 100% justified.
Ember really is the bestest little goblin a brother could ask for.
Am I a decrepit, broken, middle-aged man? Yes.
Am I doing an absurdly silly Happy Dance because I prepared a simple breakfast for someone I actually care about? Also yes.
I'm a simple soul, okay?
Currently speed-running a lifelong conservative's redemption arc; I'm going to see if I can get it done in under a month.

Is it just me or are neuronormies just So. Fucking. Exhausting. whenever you have to interact with one?

These Red States aren't sending us their best. They're sending us murderers, drunk drivers, kidnappers, thugs, rapists, and some—I suppose—might be good people. 🙄
As a History guy: that Alt Text tho...
Having to face the reality of a family that still beats their children in 2025 is past enraging and goes straight to depressing. I cannot describe the sheer empathy I am feeling right now.

It's time to satisfy the 🌋 spirits again.
The hell of it is that if Biden had done something similar, at least I'd be kinda like, "Well, I'm sure his advisors gave him a way to manage the fallout."
There is no such confidence here. We all know he's shooting from the hip.
Maybe drooling from the hip is more accurate, though.

No, but for real tho:
WHAT IS THIS TIMELINE
Clearly your latest purrsonnel addition is management material. She's got Straight Shooter written all over her.
Sometimes the silly noises are SFX for explosions, so win-win?
Nothing a bullhorn and some booze can't solve.
