By the way! To anyone and everyone. Next time you get gas, if you remember, take a pic of the price at the pump and send it to me. Same goes for any protest actions. If it makes it into the magazine, I’ll give you credit and a contributor copy.

Hmm, kinda feeling like watching something Halloweeny but not necessarily horror. Like camp Halloween. Addams Family, Monster Squad, Werewolf by Night, that sort of vibe. But something I haven’t seen yet. Anyone got a suggestion?

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

I can’t believe it’s already Sunday night. This weekend was a fuckin speedrun. I guess it makes sense since I didn’t really DO anything of consequence but wow

Ok wow I did not expect a Death Cab earworm, fuck I’m not mad about it — but what a different vibe and also such a reminder of what it feels like to be new

I’m a Mandela effect guy. I remember the cornucopia on the Fruit of the Loom logo. I read the Berenstein Bears. I have a third example. There are many little personal inconsequential examples too, though. I try not to think about it too much because that way lies madness. Have you got one?

People were wingeing about how it hasn’t rained this month Now it’s gonna be raining all through Halloweekend Y’all, we could’ve dumped it all into the November wasteland but nooOooOoo you had to summon the wet on the best holiday. Fuck you.

I will admit that at least now I’m getting that nice “stay at home under a blanket and watch shit” weekend that I’ve been kinda jonesing for a while. I don’t hate that, especially after the week it’s been. I’m just disappointed about Halloweekend.

A friend of mine is going so hard into astrology posting on TikTok and it’s getting real yikesy — but we don’t really talk much anymore so I gotta be Kermit

Finally as done as I’m gonna get with this fucking thing until Monday. Istfg the old man drives me insane every dogdamned deadline I’m gonna get me a dang burrito about it. I’ve earned this.

Right on cue, my last hearing aid battery died. But I got the Bossclient out of my hair so I can knuckle down and try to make Monday not suck. (He revamped the whole magazine again today and I now have a week’s worth of work to do in… a lot less than a week. He was surprised at my dismay.)

He has decided to wait until the day before deadline (Monday) to hand over all the copy to be typeset from scratch for the entire magazine. That’s on top of me having to manage all the art assets which have also all been switched out today. It’s insane.

Okay it is very cold down here but I went to bed “early” and slept like the dead last night so let’s see how I get through the sure to be frustrating day

Wanna read something crazy? As many years have now passed since the Infamous Bear Incident as that and the turn of the millennium.  That’s blowing my fucking mind. I feel like so much more happened between 00-13 than 13-26

Actually 2017 was the big shift, what with coming back to relatively sleepy Vancouver. And of course so much has happened since — but not as much to me personally? Idk TIME IS FUCKING WEIRD

Missed the first half hour of the stream but I checked in and since it looks like some shit is popping off, I guess I’ll watch for a bit. Love the costumes, Luis looks FAB as Mystique! Idk the names of the anime characters but who the heck is Liam dressed as?

For the first time in the history of my working here, I’m probably going to have to come in over the weekend to handle some shit, for which there had better be OT or something. Between this and the Rogers shit at the same time, I am not doing well with the zen concept 💩

Bossclient continues to insist that what he wants to do isn’t fucking stupid and needlessly puts me in a really shitty position (he refuses to understand or acknowledge that he’s putting me in a shitty position). IT’S LIKE DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN

I have logged my complaint for the record for the inevitable “why is this thing I fucked up, so fucked ip, Mal? It is your job for this to not be fucked up.”

Well my phone charged properly overnight I had supplies on hand to make breakfast and lunch My space is tidy and I’m even on my way to work a little early (on a day I’m not usually even at work). The day is all going properly — but *I’m* tired

I just noticed in VisionQuest episode 4, there’s a sequence where Viz is dressed like a “TV detective” but his suspenders don’t connect to anything. There’s some other quirky shit, too. Bet I didn’t even notice it all. “Map with pins” label was hilarious, though.

Got poutine — well, tried to. Good for a chilly, stressed evening. They used enough cheese curds to strangle a cat to hide the fact they gave me almost no gravy Come on! Each element is essential!

I guess I should sacrifice the pithy snark to disclaimer that I’m talking about most of the jobs available to ME. You having a good job that you like doesn’t inherently make you a shit person Wheeeeeee muh brainrot
