As an added bonus, I can also use my wife’s lower back to rest my poutine. She says it provides a nice warming sensation.

Yeah, you’re gonna wanna eat some catfood, chug a beer and huff some glue. It’ll make you feel really sick and then put you right out.

THE CRAWLING CHAOS NYARLATHOTEP IS UPON US!

You’re absolutely right. When I ope about I am 100% saying “Whoop…”, but it’s clipped down to nothing. It’s like a word with a silent letter in it. I’ll say “column”, and feel the N in my mouth when I speak, but we both know it isn’t really there.

I live in Alberta now and am dealing with the conundrum of using “ope”, “sorry”, and “just gonna sneak on by…”

Talisman is close to my heart in every possible way, though the character art for some of the more recent expansions don’t fit in particularly well.

The Midwestern varieties actually say “ope…”

What is this… Xavier’s school for ANTS?!

Thank you. This is a beautiful sentiment.

Sometimes it’s weird to look back on middle school, and the teachers who brought our generation up as young kids being told about the future. I’m an adult now, and I feel like an adult now, but in a way it feels like I’m still a part of that group of dumb and naive kids. It doesn’t feel that long ago at all. But the reality is that all of us are now pushing 40, and our time there is now wholly irrelevant, and we’re so far removed from those years that it’s fucking wild. A lot of those teachers are probably dead now.

I don’t know how to articulate what it is I’m meaning to say here. It’s just weird that we were kids so recently. I don’t feel like my life has gone by all that fast, but middle school to 40 somehow did all the same. I feel my age, and I feel as though I’ve lived to my age, but my memories don’t feel distant whatsoever. It feels like that was nine years ago.

Just like I feel like I was still living at home with my dad a few years ago, but I’ve been living in another country away from my parents for 7 years now, and my dad had been dead since last May.

He was such a good dad.

I woke up once with what felt like a large scab between my lips, stuck primarily to the bottom one. In my sleep and stupor, I thought it maybe dried blood, or food, or perhaps I ate a large booger in the night. The aroma was something else, though. As seconds passed and my brain began to make sense of what was actually happening, I realized that I had an entire stinkbug pressed flat between my lips.

I’ve been trying to work on my internet ego. Leaving reddit a year ago did wonders for me. I still think every notification/reply I get on Lemmy is going to be a confrontation, and I can’t say that it ever is.

I hate to admit I still use Facebook, though. I live in a different country and it’s my lifeline back home to my friends and family, and it’s how I keep my daughter in their lives. But the algorithm knows how to bait me in. There’s so many obnoxious fucking douchebags on that platform. Somewhere out there in deep Facebook space is an Andrew Tate comment section where I dunked extremely hard on his fans. I no longer follow the replies on it, but I still get friend requests all the time from Tate bots, so I know it’s still active. One of these days, one of his followers will come to kill me.

TikTok be like “REAL SKINWALKERS CAUGHT ON CAMERA”, followed by a clip of a fox screaming and a goat looking through a screen door.

You could smell that boy’s clam wafting down past the wharf.

You ever wish you lived on a planet (or maybe just a country) that was perpertually storming? I don’t mean in the way that England rains all the time either. I mean varying degrees of constant thunder, lightning, and downpour, while remaining super lush and moody. Is that Vietnam?

Don’t you know that horses love stegosauruses?

My pug used to shit right on top of rocks.

Hours away? Interesting measurement.

Just gonna drop this here, since Ross has blown up suddenly. It’s important this masterpiece never fall into obscurity.

He got really cocky and has a thick smog of arrogance now. I remember seeing his JRE interview years back and thinking the same thing. It was the first time I had listened to him speak in long form, and he just dominated the entire conversation in a way that left a bad taste in me mouth. That was right around the tipping point for JRE in general before the entire thing fell off.

Tyson appears to have let his ego inflate his head.
