Welp, tree is up! It's officially the holidays!!
A ornament hanging on a Christmas tree. The tree is covered in faux snow with large Christmas berries and pinecones. The ornament depicts a chocolate lab in a Santa hat sitting next to a fully decorated Christmas tree. The engraving is in honor of Jager, my late lab who passed away this past summer. Another ornament hanging from the tree. This one is a gold glitter reindeer with a single enormous spiraled antler, it's legs made from dangling beads.

Look, I LOVE #PathfinderforSavageWorlds and anyone who knows me, knows that I am GAY AF for fiddly bits, cards, and tokens.

But guuuuuurl I CANNOT with these counters. Either the artwork or the numbers are upside down and I'm DYING inside 😭😭
A circular counter token for the tabletop role playing game "Pathfinder for Savage Worlds." The artwork depicts three large ogres facing off against heroes in the rain. The token is made from two cardboard circles on top of each other, the top circle missing a small window on the lower section of the artwork, showing off the numbers displayed on the bottom circle (spinning the circles changes the number in a count-up or count-down fashion). The numbers, however, are inverted to the artwork, implying the window section on the top circle should be on the top side of the artwork, or the numbers are printed upside-down. Either way, this drives me BONKERS!!

Is...is this character literally beating people over the head with a Bible?? 💀💀

#holler #savageworlds #ttrpg
A picture of a stat block for a character in the Holler setting for Savage worlds. Under the Gear section reads "The Good Book" followed by a damage rating of "Strength + 2" in parentheses, implying a Bible is being used as a literal weapon...

Okay, here's my Turkey Day post I suppose. The dessert is a Thai coconut custard steamed in a kabocha squash (because I am Team Anti-Pumpkin Pie).
A blue dish filled with sausage stuffing topped with turkey and gravy, served alongside mashed potatoes (also with gravy), green beans, a peek of mashed pumpkin, and a bright crimson dollop of homemade cranberry chutney. Decided to dry brine and break down the turkey ahead of time this year, since everyone in my household hates carving this seemed like a no-brainer! Three slices of bright orange pumpkin, the inside filled with a pale cream custard on a plate with a wood pattern. The Thai name is Sankaya Faktong, and it's served room temperature. It's delicious and not too sweet! The perfect substitute for nasty-ass pumpkin pie.

Everyone pay attention!! It's Oskar's first birthday!!

We went to the store and he got to pick out his own toy. Got a little overstimulated, but he's been excited all day.

Happy Birthday Baby Squig!!

I call this one, "...wut?" #MonochromeMonday
A black and white photo of me, in the shower (from the shoulders up ya pervs), getting hosed with water from above. My face is scrunched up in disapproval of being awake and alive.

Huh...honestly it's more open than I expected. Wonder if I should do some introspection? 🫠🫠
A chart labeled "Your Nonmonogamy Compass Result" with the website "relationship-compass.com" beneath it. The chart itself is divided into four categories, the top indicating "limits others" and bottom "doesn't limit others" while left and right indicate "interested in many" and "interested in one" respectively. The top right field is titled "#tradlife." The bottom right field is titled "practical progressive." The top left field is titled "biblical patriarch." And the bottom left field is titled "polycule slutcloud." My results indicate I am just slightly within the "polycule slutcloud" field, just off of true center. Makes sense I suppose, as I think it really depends on the specific dynamic of my relationship where I would be. I guess I always considered myself monogamous, but I want whatever makes my partner happy and satisfied too...idk, it's just an online test, take it with a grain of salt, I'll never be in a true relationship anyway lolol

Me: "Idk, I don't really consider myself a furry. I don't have a fursuit, I don't really know any furries personally, I'm just not sure if that's me."

Also Me: "FUUUUCK THIS RACCOON STIRS SOMETHING PRIMAL IN ME!! HOW DO I BECOME HIM OR HAVE HIM INSIDE ME?!"
An advertisement for a Kickstarter for a RPG expansion called, "The Gunslingers Guide to Rexfald." The header reads "1800% Funded Western Saga! On the frontier, the party's never over." Beneath the headed is anthropomorphic raccoon and mouse dancing. The mouse wears a red dress, while the raccoon... Oh my GODS the raccoon is so hot. He's got a white button down shirt with several buttons undone and blue slacks tucked into his black boots, and he's got suspenders on but they aren't wrapped over his shoulders, they're just dangling down to his side. I WANNA BE HOT LIKE THIS RACCOON WHY DOES THIS ENGAGE SOMETHING PRIMAL WITHIN ME?!

Omg her life is just soooooo tough
My dog, Lacy, a golden retriever and yellow lab mix, laying on the couch; her head on a pillow and covered in a fuzzy fleece blanket, looking up at the camera with a look reminiscent of annoyance. She's actually upset that I'm leaving to shower before work, as she was comfortable cuddling with me and I've left her unprotected to be annoyed by my other dog, Oskar.

Need a good cuddle. Lucky I've got the best cuddle buddy alive.
Me, looking rough because it's No Shave November, which is an easy excuse rather than explain my depression is so bad that personal grooming has been impossible lately, with my dog Lacy, a golden retriever and yellow lab mix, laying on my neck with her paw resting in my chest. We are both surrounded by warm blankets and comforters and plenty of pillows.

Normal people: Yay! An extra hour of sleep tonight!

Me, an overnight worker:
An altered depiction of the Mona Lisa, with disheveled hair and dark circles under her eyes. The implication being that, I, as a night shift worker, work an extra hour tonight while my coworkers get more sleep that I routinely lack.

Am I having a stroke?? Is this real?? A NEWBORN MEANS THEY'VE RECENTLY BEEN BORN. THE PLACENTA IS NO LONGER ATTACHED! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!?!
A quiz question that asks, "The nurse educator is teaching a group of students about newborn digestion. Which statement should the nurse educator include in the teaching?" The answer options are as follows: "A) The ability to form ketones is mature at birth. B) The stomach is unable to absorb vital nutrients. C) The liver can conjugate bilirubin at birth. D) The placenta provides nutrients and removal of waste products." The selected answer of B is marked with a red x incorrect, with the correct answer D being marked with a green star. I'm genuinely crashing out here, if they said prenatal digestion, the answer would obviously be D, however the question directly asks about newborn, at which time the placenta is no longer attached.

I like my bags of homemade instant coffee how I like my humor...not to everyone's taste.
A ziplock bag filled with instant coffee, the color of which is a faint grey and ashy appearance. The label on the bag reads: "Grandma." The number of people that actually get disturbed I'm carrying around my grandma's ashes in a ziplock is higher than you'd expect. Most of them figure it out by the time I start drinking it tho...

Did...did the captions just explain the joke...?
A scene from American Dad, with Stan holding Rogu. Stan wears a raccoon skin hat, while Rogu wears a large rat skin hat. The closed captioning transcribes Rogu's line "Remember the a la mode." Then, in brackets under the caption, "Alamo." The issue being that the joke was literally set up by Stan saying the family were "deserters" and to "remember the alamo." Rogu responded he "loves dessert" and the aforementioned subsequent joke. Why are they explaining it?!

Mexican Chicken Cacciatore or something idk
A pile of rice pilaf surrounded by stewed chicken and tomatoes, topped with a dollop sour cream and an a hefty plop of guacamole. All on top of a paper plate...because I'm a dumb lazy bitch who forgot to do any dishes. Fuck, I gotta do laundry too. My life is falling apart, I'm at my wits end and don't know what I'm gonna do. At least I've got some good food tho!

IT'S LIVE!! EVERYONE REMAIN CALM IT'S HAPPENING!!
A screen shot from the Backerkit page for "Pathfinder for Savage Worlds Carrion Crown Adventure Path." The backer status shows it has raised $43,114 of the expected $4,000, with 369 (69, nice) backers, and 23 days left of the campaign. I'm delirious with excitement, and obviously my request for "everyone to remain calm" should really be directed at myself rather than others. Seriously tho, within a day it's 1000% funded, but the more backers they have the more likely they'll produce more of this content AND DADDY NEEDS HIS PATHFINDER FOR SAVAGE WORLDS CONENT FOR HIS OWN SANITY WHICH IS CRUMBLING UNDER THE WEIGHT OF NURSING SCHOOL AS WE SPEAK!!

Reading all about it WITHOUT a diagnosis but ALL the signs and symptoms, however, is NOT accompanied by any sense of relief. 😓😓
A picture from the Pearson nursing textbook. A section is highlighted that reads, "The diagnosis of ADHD in the adult may be accompanied by a sense of relief." The joke, of course, being that I have all the symptoms but my doctor insists I don't have ADHD because I did well in high-school (ignoring that I didn't do well in college at all).

Played some Mansions of Madness today. Such a fun game, I should get the expansions.

Well...first I should get friends to play with. THEN expansions. But expansions are cheaper and easier to get, so... 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

The irony of my running my ethics assignment through ChatGPT because my instructor is a stickler and likes to nitpick my work.

I made split pea hummus with herby/garlic tomato salad.

...it made WAY more than I expected, I don't have enough crackers.

No, I PROMISE, you do not have as an amazing a person in your life as I do: @gingerteddygrahams.bsky.social

He went around town buying little things that reminded him of me. I'm crying right now, I love him so much!!
