Ah, profound bathroom wisdom.

One of the local bars near me has "I'm proud of you, son. Love, Dad" Scrawled over the urinal, and I think about it all the time.

Man, I made something like this for my old dog, who had bad knees and sometimes had trouble jumping up on our bed.

She flat out ignored it and kept jumping. I loved that stubborn idiot.

Fair!

I've got step one and two on lock, but I work from home.

Everyone would love the 12ft skeleton, but I'd probably be (rightly) scorned for suggesting anything tangentially related to capitalism.

Much to consider.

Teach me your ways

Words to live by. Sending my love.❤️

It also gives our GM a chance to join in and do some extra world building, or pull from things that happened "off-screen" to color moments in-game.

One of the few things that brings me incredible joy in these shitty times.

My character and another player's character are in a romantic relationship, which is usually a huge annoyance at the table, but we get to explore it in our own time and not have it bog down the pacing of our sessions.

One of my favorite things that my TTRPG group does in between sessions is writing short stories and collaborative scenes about our characters in our campaign Discord.

There's so much inspiring writing being done, and it really gives everyone room to explore their characters.

If this isn't witchy enough, then it's a poor Witch Walk, imo.

My home was ravaged by this shitty cold/flu/whatever, sorry you got hit as well.

Somehow, I ended up not getting sick at all despite the wife and kid both missing a week of work/school.

What a BIG JUEVES!

Mike Katsufrakis @katsufrakis.com · 10d

What an amazing opportunity! Congratulations!

Now I want ice cream

It's been screwed up for about an hour now.

Social media has been a total drag lately, but rocking the fuck out still works wonders for my soul.

Most years are, I find

We chatted for a bit, and I guess I gave off a certain vibe, because as we parted ways, he handed me a well-used copy of The Monkey Wrench Gang.

This story reminds me of my freshman year of college. I was in marching band and had to be on campus a month early for camp, so when I moved into the dorms, it was just me and the R.A. who had to be there because of me.

YouTube Premium is one of the best things I pay for each month. I haven't seen an ad on YT in years.

I love not seeing those ads more than I hate giving Google money.

Mike Katsufrakis @katsufrakis.com · 22d

That "Yo Joe!" is so absolutely on point, haha

Mike Katsufrakis @katsufrakis.com · 24d

I'm tired, boss

Mike Katsufrakis @katsufrakis.com · 26d

What takes you to the mall today good sir

Look, this ain’t my thing, but coming up with solutions for problems is literally my job

No, just thinking it would need to be airtight and stored in a cool, dry room to avoid condensation. Urine also “settles” over time so it would also need to be shaken or otherwise agitated before use.

Interesting engineering problem!
