My youngest (15) just started playing Cyberpunk 2077 the other night. I'm beside myself with joy.

In other news, opening of new "The Wonderful Mr. Limpet" attraction delayed when a prototype Don Knotts animatronic was reported stolen from Walt Disney World....

Who's ready to observe Turtle Totentanz Day tomorrow?

Liquid IV sugar-free Firecracker popsicle flavor tastes like industrial bathroom cleaner smells. Avoid at all costs.

Ok, but what if Bluegrass Turtleman was a lich, and called on his dark magics to siphon life from Princess Ladybug in order to prolong his own lifeless existence?

My latest pic got an adult content filter? Somehow, that tickles me. 🤣

The Force will be with you, always.

I'm genuinely hate-watching the Artemis mission. I want to be watching it with my childhood imagination full-chested, but this seems like such a distracting sham right now!

I'm a nerd. I want to love that we're going back to the Moon right now, again, in my lifetime. I want to *so* bad. But I don't. And I hate it.

We may not be Night City, but we're holding our own, chooms. #cyberpunk2077

The only immigrants to come to America and utterly ruin it were "white" Europeans. Regards, ~A child of "white" European immigrants.

I wanna die. I wish I were joking.

I mean, really, what's worth living for? I hear a lot of charms, but I'm not feeling any benefits. I lived for love; I lived for hope. Well, meh. I know I hurt, but fuck! Doesn't matter, I'm sure. Go, live, serve. Do. Why fuckin bother? Bah dah pah pah.

I want to believe in hope. But hope served me a shit sandwich recently. I'm only naively dumb for so long. After that, the trap closes.

Just lost someone very dear over politics. I had only just managed to get them back in my life. Fuck, does this hurt!

Playing #Cyberpunk2077 again, and for the first time, I decided to see what happens when you betray Songbird. For the record, I knew it was going to be bad before I did it. Every instinct in my body said so. This was the Salem Witch Museum in Fallout 4. This was ALL of Alien: Isolation. Nope!

So I think there's another variant. So there's aro and ace. But I think I'm also something else. I'm not against romance, but I don't dig sex. That said, I do like sensation and sensual things. So..... sensual/asensual spectrum....?

It helps me sleep at night. But, jeez, really? 16th in the world?? I was a top listener of Cheesy Nirvosa globally. #SpotifyWrapped www.spotify.com/wrapped-shar...

("KID, HAVE YOU REHABILITATED YOURSELF?")

Bauhaus ("won" tickets) The Sisters of Mercy (technically) Depeche Mode (best date) Lords of Acid + My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult (saw Some Things(tm)) Meatloaf (second row center tix, bought the day before, and he paused the concert to flip me off)

If you have TikTok, there's quite guy performing the entire musical of The Phantom of the Opera, puppeteering it entirely in Lego, live in one take. It's *amazing.*

Apologies, my good bitch, but whatever seems to be the fuck?

"Gotta secret, can you keep it?"

I love Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Tiffany, and Debbie Gibson, but let's be real: the Ladies of the 80's were Laura Branigan, Bonnie Tyler, and Pat Benatar.

This is no longer a phoenix. From now on, this is a Molatov cockatiel.

Clouds are terrifying, if you think about it. It looks all light and fluffy, but it's literally a million or so pounds of water just hanging over you.

In three hours, check and keep an eye on Hawaii. #tsunami

Been a week now. Still "crying incoherently." Hug your pets.

Yes please. Origami Ballet - Agnes Obel - "The Curse"

Things My Man Says While Playing "Schedule 1:" "Sorry, guys, I'm out of Thunderfuck. Do you want some Tokyo Queef?"

Space Billie Eilish says Happy May the Fourth!

The existence of "mundane" suggests the existence of tuesdane, wednesdane, thursdane, fridane, saturdane, and sundane.

Zesta crackers, you were a core element to my meatloaf, but you have changed and failed me for all time. You are *dead* to me. I will never forgive you for this betrayal. Never *dare* darken my doorstep again.

Sky looked neat last night.

Baldyr's Angels. Starring Drew Barrymore as Karlach, Lucy Liu as Lae'zel, and Cameron Diaz as Shadowheart. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

Thirty-five years ago today, the water cooler conversations started.

If you're bitching about the potential of $80 games, consider this: I was alive when top-shelf games cost $25. That was 1985. Google tells me that equals around $75 in today's money. Inflation sucks, but you've lost perspective. Pay artists what they deserve.

Megan 2.0 is just Pink Pony Terminator 2: Judgement Day. I'm kinda here for it, strangely.

The Playstation 2 had three different GTA games come out for it, whereas GTA 5 has had three different Playstations come out for it. Anyway, I'm turning 50 in a couple weeks. So......yay.

Unbothered. Also, in bed. G'night now.

I'm watching my gentleman play Baldur's Gate 3 and just broke him by referring to Orin the Red as "Tzimommysce." IYKYK.

Teslas are not "being set on fire." It's just Roman candles. Settle down, people.

Just had a TikTok comment deleted, and appeal denied. The video was for a gaming miniature of an anthropomorphic chicken in plate armor in a heroic pose. The text asked what his name would be. My comment: "He wears a disguise to look like human guys, but you're not a man, you're a Chicken Boo." 🤣

Oof, look at that. Low T score. Poor fella should probably seek some gender-affirming care.
