This is maaaaybe 10% done. I don’t know what I was thinking, making this pattern 36k stitches.

A cross stitch project that is about 1/10 done of the Shocked Pikachu meme.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Ok, who is going to teach Goku about sex? He has no idea what he’s got himself into. Is this why DBZ starts with Gohan being like 5? They didn’t want to show the messy details of Goku figuring it all out?

Oh god, Goku has to fight ChiChi. This is really gonna piss her off…

PikaProgress Update: 75% complete! I was unnecessarily worried about the red I picked for the cheeks. It’s perfect. I can’t believe I only have 25% more to go.

A cross stitch project of the Shocked Pikachu meme. It is 75% complete, so we can see Brock’s legs, Pikachu’s head down to his eyes, nose, one of his red little cheeks, and a lot of out of focus bushes in the background.

I should’ve said earlier, I’m a lady. And no, I haven’t seen DB Super.

Oh I’ve seen all of DBZ, just working my way through DB. They all get ripped.

Thank you!! I appreciate your support! I’ve been binge watching Dragon Ball. The main character has been a kid for 132 episodes and I was ready for him to grow up.

My #DrunkRoomate tonight: what if there was a parallel universe that was exactly like earth but instead of the world being run by humans, it was run by dogs and the humans were the pets?

Yeah, I’m kinda surprised she didn’t lead with that. And this arrest was months ago.

[whispers] is this a safe space to say that I watch MLP:FiM without my kid. It’s fantastic.

I don’t want to stan potential politicians, but I absolutely make an exception for Chris Kluwe.

Everyone, I’m just <sniffs> I’m just so proud of us all.

We finally did it.

LibsOfTikTok finally targeted me.

I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long <unfolds acceptance speech> and first I want to thank everyone who made it possible: Harambe, Kony2012, my fa

A post from failed real estate agent and local ghoul Chaya Raichik aka LibsOfTikTok targeting me. Text of the post reads:

“Leftist CA State Assembly candidate Chris Kluwe, who promotes the harassment of ICE online, was ARRESTED at a Huntington Beach City Council meeting earlier this year.

Chris was protesting a proposed library plaque that featured a phrase similar to ‘Make America Great Again’

Chris called MAGA a ‘Nazi movement’ before leaving the podium and approaching the council member, where he was grabbed by police and carried out.

This unhinged lunatic wants to be an elected official…”

Thanks for the free advertising, Chaya!

I seriously can’t watch them. My heart has been broken so many times.

Pinkie Pie is by far my favorite MLP. She has so much chaotic energy. I just adore her.

Thinking about that time the My Little Pony comics, of all things, absolutely bodied Scott Adams.

Close up of Pinkie Pie looking at a newspaper comic saying “Hmpf. I thought these were supposed to be funny?”

The comic is called Ponybert by Trot Adams. It opens with a building and we see a word balloon that says “Well?” The second panel is of Ponybert, the Dilbert stand-in saying “No one is smart but me.”
