This weekend I turn 35 and enter midlife. I have this strange desire to buy a Porsche now.

When I grew up it was hard to admit you loved anime, but fortunately it is much more mainstream now. Come read my story of weird girls with tails.

Is anyone else as sick of the current status quo of health and wellness scammers out there? No, I don't want your Botox, your peptides or your damn TRT. No one should want to look like or be like Joe Rogan!

This week's #poem for #Poetrysunday is about #hurricanes and the anticipation and slight fear of them. A hurricane day was the closest thing to a #snowday I had as a kid growing up in #Florida

My latest #Poetry Sunday #poem is live. Not to brag, but my last poem was in consideration to be featured on a poetry Instagram page if I paid them enough money. I will continue to try to stay humble and grounded. #boymeetsvoid

#Loveisland is an absolutely wild show. "Hey let me make out with someone who just made out with someone else 5 seconds ago!" Naw dude.
#Clerks is the most important #movie of my life. It really defined my 20s in particular. Do you guys have a movie that really hit hard for you?
Boy Meets Void@boymeetsvoid.com · 7mo ago#Clerks (1994) was such an important film. It launched the career of #KevinSmith who has gone on to create many other excellent films over the years. I encourage everyone to watch this #masterpiece, either for the first time or again. This #write-up demonstrates its importance to me.
Watching an episode of #SNL from 2011 and weekend update had a joke about how #trump would never be #president. Those were simpler times.
Anyone else used to play #neopets? Here's my little guy all grown up. I distinctly remember creating him in my aunt's basement when I was in middle school. Weird to think about.

Homeownership brings so many great joys and surprises. This week my basement flooded because water heaters are super bizarrely designed.

As someone who lives in Minnesota but is unable to fight, this is a plea to all those who can. Also included is some straight up indignant rage that I am feeling about yesterdays execution.

This is one the of the dumbest things I've ever read. "He could tell me 'fuck you' and I would fellate him." These magas should read some of the dark romances my wife reads. They have a lot in common with the characters who seem to love being abused and locked in basements and shit.
This #poem is dedicated to anyone who had a place growing up where they spent most of their days. I basically lived in this park as a teenager and have countless memories from there. I miss it very much.

I just read that #Meta is going to be laying off a bunch of #metaverse people. Who could have foreseen that being a terrible idea! Oh, me. I also rage about #Facebookmarketplace and those stupid fucking #metaglasses which are making #raybans even less cool in my newest post.

It was definitely a long December. Sadly, there's no reason to believe this year will be better than the last. You lied to me counting crows, if that even is your real name!
Nobody tells you that parenting is a lot of work. Babies are not in fact "easy as hell." Go figure.
