It’s thanksgiving week so I wanna see some MST3K posting, quotes, pictures, clips, gifs! Meanwhile I’m going to go to a department meeting and try to pay attention while I wonder if there’s beer on the sun

My friend and I saw Avatar (the metal band, not the movie) in concert last night and it was an excellent show. Go see them if they’re in your area! I’ve had “Tonight We Must Be Warriors” stuck in my head all day.

In self-interest but also general interest, folks: Black Friday is coming up, and small publishers/independent creators will always be a better choice than megacorps.

When the sales drop, please remember that!

I will admit to many frailties and flaws. I am far from perfect and have made plenty of mistakes and there are plenty of things I am bad at.

You could not pay me enough to declare that I am incapable of composing my own insults.

Marijuana is mentally addictive, but—unlike alcohol and nicotine—you won’t experience physical withdrawals once you stop.

*I’m not an expert, learned this in school so grain, salt, etc.
Doctors say it's possible to get hooked on pot. There's a widespread misconception that marijuana is not addictive, and it's expanded as a growing number of states legalize pot.

Said it once. Will say it again.

This whole thing is V.C. Andrews coded.
So much of MAGA politics seems like dark Freudian family dramas.

Some people will destroy a country before they go into therapy.
"Mom and Dad are separated" doesn't strike me as a particularly healthy lens for engaging with politics.
