So today’s overblown simile is: “And the power is out again. This may have something to do with the 20 or so electric company vehicles crowding the street like it’s a house party for trade employed clowns testing the tolerance of the local residential fire code for maximum occupancy.”

If I could make money from making basic ass observations on Bluesky, I probably would have something other than depressing job prospects. Possibly two nickels, but it would depend on income and sales taxes, so… Yeah. That’s my two cents.

When your shit is so fucked up that country music from the last century not only sounds good but relatable? That’s when you know you need some help.

So I figured out a question that might irritate a lot of webcomic artists who aren’t Phil Foglio, so I have to be extremely careful of whether they probably already know the answer before I ask. And for him, the answer is “Just like us, really.” Confirmed on a regular basis.

Life just reminds me every other month that Ken Page isn’t with us anymore and while I’m always sad at first, I always tear up knowing that he enjoyed everyone listening as much as I enjoyed him singing. Maybe I never liked Cats, but it wasn’t because of him.

So for medical reasons, it was suggested I try a keto diet. I’m on here a lot, so of course I ask “what’s a keto diet?” It’s short for “ketosis diet” where the body burns fat instead of carbs because there’s next to no carbs in the diet. “So it’s like a low carb diet?” Not quite. 1/

Cut out all the dairy fat for similar medical reasons and naturally, I think “I’m in hell.” Then I started finding the parts that still worked. Omelettes are keto. Mustard is keto. And do I hear baby dill in an early 00’s cash grab movie? CAUSE I GOT FUCKING PICKLES!!! 4/

But the cool part is that I need to consult my doctor on this since a keto diet might actually make everything way fucking worse. If it does, I don’t have to do keto, but I have a shit ton of stuff to put in my regular diet to eat healthier. 5/5

In a keto diet, you’re removing most of what normally has carbs from your diet so the body can’t look for it and replacing those calories with fat. “Well how does that look?” Well you start by adding in a whole bunch of meat and dairy “Yeah?” Take out root veggies and broccoli “Sounds kinda” 2/

Cancel most big fruits… “This had the word diet, right?” And stop eating and grains, beans, rice, potatoes, or anything fried or sweet. “Okay, there we go.” And I mean no products that have any corn or sugar or anything else added, like cough medicine. “Holy fuck.” 3/

“We’re calling about a survey…” Let me get ready to hang up “… from the CDC about immunization standards.” TIME TO ANSWER A GADDAMN SURVEY!!!

Diseases picked up at conventions, when traveling, or when negotiating a night’s affections are all horrible. Fuck you, JJ, you triple down bastard!

Well shit. I got noticed and now I need content. Maybe it’s a tomorrow problem? I’m busy with a sports thing for once. … Fuck, I hope it’s once. I actually kind of like it here.

You are up to date.
