Favorite desk toy, anyone? My go-to is this thinking putty, but I’m looking for more options.

Superglued myself to a pumpkin. Happy fall.

Don’t worry — I am being appropriately supervised

Update on the ol’ toy ranking

If you watch the new Harry Potter tv series, you are supporting a transphobe. You are sending money to a woman who has used and will use it to fight against trans rights. And yes, it is “that serious.”

I am so unbelievably tired of having this conversation. Yes, it was a very nice children’s book, but we need to be done with it now.

Reasons my cat Spaceman can’t actually go to space: • Too little (spacesuit wouldn’t fit) • ISS isn’t actually the International Snack Station, so he probably wouldn’t care to go • Already voms in the car, so how’s he gonna do zero g • Not sure churus count as space-safe food • I would miss him

Sure would look cute in a little spacesuit, though

Would you send this man to space? Look at him. LOOK AT HIM.

Happy Bisexual Visibility Day on this, the one day of the year during which I can be visually perceived

I liked the beginning montage in Cyberpunk 2077 a LOT, and this is coming from someone who loathes being *shown* character development in cut scenes vs. getting to play it. But I’m wondering how it would have felt if it were handled more like the training montage in 007 First Light.

Watching my partner play First Light is like watching a Bond movie where Bond occasionally dies mid-climactic fight scene or sometimes has trouble going up a ladder

A Bond who sometimes squats in the middle of a smooth line delivery for no clear reason

“Not to toot my own horn” — what? Excuse me? Who the hell else is going to toot it? That’s why I bought a trumpet in the first place!

I understand my wordplay makes the translators’ jobs more difficult, and I ALSO understand they probably have my face on a dartboard. (Fair.)

P.S. if I get to the top without Bing Bong did I really make it to the top

Today a man in a suit wasn’t sure how to address me so he went with “Mr. or Ms.”

(I prefer Mx., for the record)

Anyway this is what I get for shaving my head before jury duty

Today a man in a suit wasn’t sure how to address me so he went with “Mr. or Ms.”

My initial reaction was “dude, you gotta pick one,” but then I remembered my approach to gender and… maybe that’s actually based?

This morning my beloved spouse went on a polite rant about the superiority of the European robin to the North American robin, and this is exactly the kind of thing that made me marry them in the first place

Representative Young Kim’s office is locked to the public, and the office itself is in a locked facility. She never holds town halls. How the hell are we meant to talk to her?

A huge thank you to @alexbeachum.bsky.social, @vankelsing.bsky.social, and the whole team at @mobiusdigitalgames.com. You gave an anxious kid with autism some tools to overcome her fears and to understand and regulate her emotions. You fostered an experience that we will absolutely never forget.
