No freedom 'til we're equal, damn right I support it.
Apparently I have gastroparesis(unconfirmed) and my ozempic has slowly been exacerbating the symptoms until I had a full blown flare on Monday. 15 straight hours of purging, follow by 3 days of Gatorade and broth in tiny qualities until I sussed out what was going on.

Pretty sure the missus just referred to the Hickory Farms delivery we just got as our "Shark Coochie Platter" and I think I vam OK with dying with that being the last thought in my mind.

Fuck it.
i.
Am.
So.
Tired.

I shouldn't be. We shouldn't be.

We should be writers.
We should be creators.
We should all be out there.

We who can.

I can't.

Combination of aphantasia and not being tested for autism when I was a kid (working on getting that scheduled).

Fucking Hell.

I'm not supposed to feel exhausted after being off for a week.

Stop. (I'm not the boss of you)
Breathe. (See above)
Be better. ? Oh, no caveat on this.

Went shopping today, and for some reason Kroger has replaced Royal Dansk with some brand called Bauducco and that is NOT my grandmother's sewing kit...

Repping House Fortemps at Kroger today.

Not a fan of Sweetwater Brewing's IPAs, but if you come across their "Dive Beer" lager, I'm kind of digging it.

It's like if I was craving a PBR, but... good?

Woke up.
Had ham and sides while successfully avoiding my family.
Watched some YouTube.
Took a nap.
Spent 4 hours hanging on Discord with my chsoen family.
Played some Escape From Duckov.
Tucked in the missus.
Winding down with Timberborn and Sleep Token.

I gotta say it was a good day.

Happy holiday to all who are celebrating.

I hope you have the opportuniy to spend it with your chosen family.

If your other family is stressing you out, step back, and take this moment to breathe.

Just breathe.

You've got a real type of thing going down, gettin' down
There's a whole lot of rhythm going round

Gone from shaving head and face daily to just buzzing them every couple of months since we moved to WFH.

Wife buzzed my head last week for an endo appt.

Just decided I was tired of the beard and decided to have some fun with it.

Aimed for somewhere between George Motz and Toomds from Riddick.

Perfect timing Randall.

I really needed to pee - so this is a perfect time for me to cry quietly on the can for a bit.

In a good way.

Discord buddy is a dill pickle fiend.

I am fairly baked.

I just anonymously sent hime a bunch of dill pickle themed Xmas ornaments and snacks.

Our Saturday night group call should be interesting.

My inner chaos goblin may have quieted over the years, but she's still there. 😈

@littlegunbunny.bsky.social "Tits & Autism"? I can't breathe right now...

That would've been one hell of a band name in the 90's.

#VacayDayTres Let's start today with a beer and 48 minutes of Leonard French talking about the Comey case, because my brain is fundamentally ... um ... something.

One day I'll figure it out. Maybe. Qui sait?
November 24, 2025 at 3:36 PM
Day Two of vacation is winding down.

I feel s̶o̶.̶.̶.̶ ̶r̶e̶l̶a̶x̶e̶d̶.̶

I feel s̶o̶ ̶r̶e̶s̶t̶e̶d̶.̶

I feel like I've been sleeping in my office chair just vibing to music and dozing and watching reactions videos since I clocked out 15 minutes early on Friday.

I feel.

And breathing has gotten a bit easier.

Had 2 ultrasounds yesterday.

First one - 10min, flat on my back, arm above my head
Second one?
30-40 minutes of contorting my upper body into the most uncomfortable positions possible.

This morning it feels like I spent that entire time doing crunches. Like FMJ Pyle après blanket party.

Imaging tech: "You chart says your gall bladder was removed, correct?"

Me, having my fingers crossed for a week hoping they'd mention it: "Yeah, it went out for smokes in '94... I'm sure it will be back any day now."

Someone, somewhere, finally un-fucked the link between one of our customer's SNow implementation and ours, because we got in a couple of hundred "Hey, this circuit is in our database but not yours - please add it" cases.

Did someone light the "boring and tedious" signal? *cracks knuckles*

I watch reaction videos for exactly two things.

Seeing people's first time reaction to music I love, which ultimately leads to me finding new music that I adore,

And seeing the spark of life leave their eyes when Wash dies in Serenity.

It's been 20 years. Know my pain. #StopKillingAlanTudyk

I need a Bo Burnham "I don't think that I can handle this right now" shirt.

Maybe one to wear out, and one super oversized with long sleeves for snuggling in.
