My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

New Secret Menu hack: I threw a Hot Mozz on top of a Dave's Hot Chicken slider, then smothered it with honey. It was sooooo good. I can feel my arteries hardening. Mmmm.

Had a great conversation with the Jehovah's Witnesses who showed up at my door today. They seemed really sad about the end of the world, so I tried to keep my messaging positive, & comfort them as best as I could. I... I seriously wish I was kidding. Everything is so fucking weird right now.

I don't use cologne or deodorant. Instead, I rub myself down with fresh crushed herbs & spices. Particularly fresh rosemary from my garden. It provides a healthier, natural scent, as opposed to cloying perfumes or skin irritating chemicals. Also, when I die, I come pre-seasoned for easier cooking.

A fond farewell to BioWare, @bioware.bsky.socialwho has given us some of the best games ever. For over 30 years, you gave us obsessive compulsive micro-management, ridiculous levels of customization & unique stories that transported us to amazing & beautiful new Worlds. Thanks for the Memories.

An Egg McMuffin with OJ is now over 10 bucks. If you’re working a minimum wage job, that’s more than half an hour’s work in Arizona, and even more in many other states. Everything is more expensive in Trump’s economy.

I really hope my ballot box doesn't get incinerated by extremists in order to silence my vote like it did last Election. Lol. No, really. That happened last time I Voted. My local ballot box got literally put to the torch. Hundreds of ballots burned. If it happens again, I may get annoyed.

Trump's removal of every single woman from power is comically predictable. You can even tell which one he's going to turn on next, based on his mad tirades. This is why you don't pander to Sexual Predators. For the same reason you don't feed a rabid dog. They ALWAYS bite the hand that feeds them.
