Optimist: the cup is half full Pessimist: the cup is half empty Hockey fan: THE CUP IS MISSING!?

Optimist: The glass is half full Pessimist: The glass is half empty Me running Shadows of Brimstone: Now, we’re level 6 so these enemies are Brutal and have 1 Elite Ability. Their health is 22 with Defense 4 and are immune to Crits. But they’re worth 25xp plus 10xp per wound, so they’re juicy.

Really love that the billing and appointment platform my therapist uses has an AI system that hallucinates every two weeks that my insurance isn’t network. So I have to spend 30 min in chat with their support to fix it. Four times now in two months. Can’t wait for this shit to go away.

I need a lifesize version of this LEGO face on Mars picture from the X-Files set. It brings me such joy.
Sometimes I see something in nature and then spend the next several years waiting for the shot. Sometimes I never get it. Sometimes you see it and a week later you land it: I give you tonight's murder of crows in front of the sunset. 🪶
Given the subject matter of the lyrics, my brain should not get as happy as it does when it hears the opening to “Testure” by Skinny Puppy. youtu.be/Uj7Ky_bUGmg

If you think about it, the classic television series “The Love Boat” is actually an allegory for the royal court of the Padishah Emperor. Captain Stubing stands in for Shadam IV, and Julie (your cruise director) in place of the Princess Irulan. In this essay I will… [1/10191]

I really liked watching her and all of Team Japan play during the Olympics, but PWHL Detroit has a terf problem. Maybe that terf will go on the injured list due to ruptured ear drums from all the booing she receives on road trips.
If you were to ask me why I need 18 assembled Slashers for Shadows of Brimstone, the answer is, of course, CRABS. More realistically it’s because there’s 6 variants of Slasher in the game, and I want to paint up 3 of each. Already have 3 of the basic version painted. But also, CRABS.
Listening to Alien Sex Fiend while gluing gaming miniatures together (and therefore getting some chemical huffs in) and a fabulous combination.
I love the band Fields of the Nephilim, but enunciation and clarity are not the lead singer’s strong suits. Just adds to the mystery of their occulty vibes. Anyway, decades ago my brain pegged a lyric in this song as “pray for the Viet Cong,” and I still can’t unhear it now. youtu.be/ug46Skyn6m0

Watching “End of Evangelion” (on a big screen, no less) in my early 50’s after doing a couple years of therapy to unpack my self-hatred issues is a radically different experience than when I first watched it in my mid-20’s. I wouldn’t want to get in the goddamn Eva either though.
Dune: Imperium is a great board game. It captures the feel of the Dune universe without getting bogged down in Paul’s story too much. What would make it a PERFECT game is if I could get an edition of the game with visuals from the David Lynch film and not the current series.

Either Don Burrito, or Tony “Tamarind” Jarritos. Both are pretty excellent.

I recently participated in an online miniature painting contest in which I placed PARTICIPANT, meaning my streak is unbroken! Anyway, I am still tickled by this little lad I added to the original piece and how well he turned out. The main piece is a swamp raptor egg nest from Shadows of Brimstone.
I’m an only child. I’m pretty sure I would be unreasonably good at not existing.
