Me starting Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time because a 60% off sale.
Me: Well it looks like I have personal sponsatilities.
Judy: Personal sponsatilities?
Me: Yeah, it means I can't have any fun unless I hack everything.
A screen grab of the Cyberpunk 2077 teaser trailer. A woman with a ton of cyber implants went crazy and killed a bunch of people. She has brown hair, a white top, and bullets don't penetrate her skin. The teaser had a song with the words "Personal Responsibility" thus the silliness of the post.

The Void Dragon asks nicely to leave it's home alone please
An evil vibrant green and metal dragon stands above Mars ready to wreck any who disturbs it's slumber. Aladdin is cool though.

A probably bot account called Cute Cat follows me. Which means I'm pretty amazing obviously.

Hey, I've seen this one!
The movie poster for "Wag the Dog" a 1997 film about the government using the media to start a pretend war to save the president. This obviously would never happen in real life.

Oh wait height... Keanu is taller!
Keanu is Speed telling a headless man that "Yeah? Well, I'm taller." Very spooky.

Antifa = Anti-fascist. Anti-Antifa = Anti-anti-fascist. Anti-anti-fascist (simplify the double negatives) = Fascist!

Totally agree. The mountains call me and I must climb them.
A look up at Mt Charleston in Nevada in October. A bright blue sky with wisps of clouds above. A brown and green mountain in the back with solid rock faces. Bushes of green and yellow to the right with a tree of green to the left. A path leads up the mountain that is mostly gravel.

There is whimsy everywhere! Find joy, wonder, and peace where you can. We must survive the horrors of the now to send them to nothing. Then, we will rebuild a world full of love.
Be safe. Endure. Survive.

"I'm not looking to grow flowers in the desert."
But they do bloom. Every year. Be patient with yourself. Be patient with the universe.
Build community. Build relationships. Build hope.
I hear revolutions are built on hope.
A green cactus with a lovely pink flower stands over sandy dirt. A prickly shrub is behind the cactus.

Somedays just suck. And that sucks. But change comes. Change goes. Be at peace when the storms come so you may build the world anew.
A lovely view of the Pacific Ocean with dark blue water, crashing white waves, and a gorgeous blue sky. A row of green bushes line a sandy road. In the distance mountains soar. The sky is blue but has a line of clouds far away.

In a hundred years, all of this will be over. Everything awful will pass. Survive mentally, physically, and emotionally to bring a beautiful dawn to humanity. You are worthy of a moment of peace.
Love you. ❤️
A brilliant blue sky reflects off of the water as mountains stand behind vibrant green trees. Peaceful and beautiful.

Sound the alarm! Sound... oh no... NOT LIKE THAT!!!
A giant monster that has giant sirens for heads comes to devour you. It stands tall over the trees. It comes from Lake Michigan so it stinks too.

If you can brave your fear, you can find wonder. Be brave. Go explore. Find beauty!
A black wooden tension bridge over water and rapids in Sequoia National Park. It's a great hidden swimming hole frequented by locals. Beyond the bridge are bushes and growth that leads to a hill down.

Okay okay okay.... hear me out... we use it to restart Mars's core! This planet plan cannot fail!
A movie poster of The Core. The poster has two halves of the Earth split by the words The Core in magma orange as though the Earth was splitting in two. The movie is totally science based and not total insanity made up by Hollywood writers. ... why are you laughing at me?

On the fifth day, at first light, look to the east...
A squirrel knight comes to your rescue after you swerved in your car to miss killing them. In your darkest hour, they return to fulfill their pledge to return the favor.

Hey, I've seen this one!
A science fiction room full of blue lights holds the lost satellite Voyager. It came back to give us all the knowledge it learned. But at what cost?
