I can't over the grossness of his facial expressions.
How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

I've eaten like 800 calories today and run 2 games of D&D, 4 hours each, back to back.
It's time to place an order for delivery and consume 1400 calories in one go.

Jeff Jarrett needs to be a good best friend and make this happen.
I've had a brilliant few years ring announcing.
You know what I'd love to do, though?
Announce a match on AEW's UK tour in December.
HERE'S WHAT I DO! Putting it out there into the universe!

Was very down yesterday, exhausted from running 2 D&D games on Sunday.
Today has been a great turnabout with a proper workout and 900 words written towards my manuscript.
Made a video last week about crossing 50k words but BlueSky won't let me post it.

Dispatch is an awesome game that clearly has had a lot of love and effort put into it. I finished it last week but this week I'm obsessing over the music. What a selection of songs!

“hey hangman you promised us pics of plants, this is just a bunch of leaves what gives?” newsflash dumbass, leaves IS plants. leaves provide winter shelter for insects like lightning bugs and butterflies, fertilize the soil, and are a pain in the ass to move anyway so just leave them where you can

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

I propose an international law that once you become personally responsible for the murder of 1,000 people, be it via direct violence or policy, you are declared a dragon and adventurers can form parties to quest against you.

I havent read such a banger of an essay in a very long time. This is so well-written!

Writing romance feels so weird. Feels like picking up two dolls and saying, "now kiss".
Just a matter of practice I guess. Eventually I'll be having dolls kissing all over the place. #writingcommunity #writingsky #booksky
