They're just really too big, honestly. It always feels like an ordeal to get a pump, get a parking space, and brave the inside of the huge travel centers. When I do my Houston - Dallas road trip, I usually just bypass them and stop at the TxDOT rest stops instead. Quicker and cheaper.
Oooh. That looks so damn good!

That's a cute gargoyle!
Had a dream last night. My former best friend was in my living room, asking me if I wanted to repair our friendship. And I looked at her and simply told her, "No." She said, "Me, neither." Then left.
And that dream has been rolling around in my head all day.
I can taste the difference between these rices:
* Basmati
* Jasmine
* White - all other
* Brown - all
... okay.
I thought I had bad pickup lines.
Tumblr has been flagging and nuking so many of the accounts that I follow and so many of my mutuals. I'm getting really close to just bailing completely. I'm just so tired of... well, everything.
I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u

They are somewhere buried in all the Lego chaos in my apartment. Like a treasure to be found.
Lego Tower Bridge. Really.
Prepped to start building Lego Tower Bridge... for the third time. I am really tempted to superglue this set together since it cannot seem to survive any apartment move.
I should really get cracking on rebuilding the Lego sets I had put together before the move, but, honestly, I kinda want to jump into building these other ship sets that I bought and didn't get around to.
Gotta find where I put all the figures for this one, though.
In keeping with a theme, also put the world's best pirate ship back together.
I get so much ass. Just drowning in fuzzy tacos. A veritable ball pit of sweater puppies. The emcee at the sausage fest.
Just gonna turn the camera a little bit to get my other favorite kind of ships.
The 2014 and 2026 Lego Maersk sets.

And then I blocked her again. She came back with another new Telegram account to tell me I'm stuck up, arrogance, self-important, and just fussing at me for not playing along. So, I told her that she's the one using multiple Telegram accounts to keep contacting me. Blocked her for the final time.
And then I blocked her. And she came back with a new Telegram account to tell me how rude I am for treating a stranger so unkindly and how I didn't need to bring family and religion into this. So I told her doesn't matter as she still a scammer.
Second started with the typical "I have your number in your contacts and I'm wondering how we know each other" schtick. I said she likely had a list of stolen data from a black site, she was clearly a scammer, and that she should be ashamed of herself like her mother and God surely are.
First had an account profile that said her name was Oriana. But she kept saying her name was Maria in chat. So everytime she said Maria, I only responded with Oriana. And I did this enough times -- only answering with Oriana -- that she crashed out with a Gregorian chant of "fuck your mother".
I was not expecting the reaction; I honestly thought I was dealing with bots. I haven't had a live scammer since Amelia the Chicago Crypto Queen in October.
I guess the AI scambot bubble is bursting. I've made two Telegram scammers crash out in the past week. One just got fed up enough to spam "fuck your mother" to me 20 times in a row before deleting, and the other took real umbrage to me telling her that her mother and God were ashamed of her.

I thought you said mom, not man. I really need to wear my glasses when I'm on my phone.
But is she wrong?
"After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true."
This has nothing to with my taxes. I did that Monday.
Its a me, Christopher.
Dealing with a massive bureaucracy to set up a user account is not how I wanted to spend my Wednesday.
Oh for sure. No reasonable person would confuse the AI-generated slop pic outfit with a doctor's lab coat. No reasonable person, anyway.
I wonder where exactly the line is with the evangelicals and religious in this country. Like, so many Rubicons have been crossed already.
