Holy crap! Today's the day! Please Allow 5-7 Days for Justice's author, @amfosterwrites.bsky.social, has clearly spent a few too many years as a spreadsheet jockey. Our hero's brush with galactic bounty hunting is futuristic and funny, but the bureaucracy he navigates is uncomfortably contemporary.

A/C repair tech at our house: “Sooo, what’s with all of the Monkey Island stuff?” Boy, was he surprised.

Tangential to the trending topic du jour, I have never understood restaurants that use "factory" in their name. "The spirit we want to evoke at our restaurant is one of industrial, automated, processed food produced at quantity with as little human artistry as possible."

Am I supposed to cower in fear of being labeled an elitist? Is that the idea? Oh no, the worst people on earth might call me an elitist! *tremble* News Flash: If supporting trans folks is elitist, sign me the fuck up.

I've been called an elitist before, and probably deserved it in that context, but gotta say, didn't have "supports trans folks" on my elitism bingo card. But hey, if that's the context, call me whatever you like. Doesn't make you any less of a soulless fuckstick.

Look, you can’t *all* be Wendy’s first kitchen.

Can confirm! I won’t speak for all VAs, but speaking for myself, I just love the work. I want to do cool stuff. So long as it’s cleared with the union and you aren’t a big dumb jerk, I’m probably going to want to work on your project!

Oh, wow, just found this mnemonic I made years ago while sifting through some old files. Ever have a hard time remembering which is tonkAtsu (fried pork chop) and which is tonkOtsu (pork ramen broth)? Not anymore.

Me: These gowns feel symbolic and pointless. Doctor: They’re for modesty. Me: Well, I wouldn’t want to be immodest while I’m getting my prostate exam.

Her: I met two quail! Out on the porch! Me: What are their names? Her: I didn’t get their names. Me: Well, then you didn’t *meet* them, did you?
