Gotta love the “or stocks” part. Like Gemini realized its first answer was nuts so it tried to wedge in a better one.
As always, superlative alt text. Also, eel knowledge.
There's a fun eel mention in Henry IV, when Falstaff slags young Hal's aggressively slight stature: “’Sblood, you starveling, you eel-skin, you dried neat’s tongue, you bull’s pizzle, you stockfish!” ‘Cause that’s how you speak truth to skinny power, damn it. 1/4 🗃️🧪
A woman at church today told me my makeup was “always on point”.

At church monitoring the sound board levels while the band rehearses for tomorrow. Not something I anticipated doing when I started this journey, but I’m finding being useful like this to be rather fulfilling.
Certain gender issues for socializing as a nonbinary person who is single for the first time in over 30 years is a little confusing and annoying. Inviting a man or a couple over to have dinner and watch a movie is no big deal.
My sister will be watching the final episodes of Only Murders in the Building tonight (unless they make more someday). Been a heckuva fun run.
Considering getting an electric scooter next year, when finances are better. Almost all my driving is short distances on city streets with bike lanes, so it would really cut down on how much I use my car.
They would rather watch Episode 328 of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli. A film that blew my mind as a child with its grandeur, sword fighting, Queen soundtrack and sheer, batshit weirdness.

Studio execs are going to want to adapt more poems for the big screen now
I only made it halfway through S1 of MedCenter Argala.
What would have been helpful was an episode of Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon. Or World Hoppers. Or anything. (Anything except MedCenter Argala.) But media would calm me down, and I wanted to stay angry.
PARIS: Um. So like… when I make a decision, will you be mad at me? ATHENA: I am the goddess of wisdom and warfare, favored of Zeus. The frivolities of lesser women are beneath me. PARIS: Oh good. I wasn’t choosing you. *LATER* ATHENA: Odysseus. Kill them all. I’m not horsing around.
Disadvantage of being divorced: Can no longer say “I’m Brian and so’s my wife!”

Today’s bloodwork results moved my rude boy prostate back down to the “weird, but probably not cancer” level, so no need for a biopsy this year.

New adulting goal: Now that I have some living room-type furniture in my overgrown-dorm-room apartment, I’m gonna try inviting one or two people over for pizza and a movie every month. Gonna try having a social life outside of organized group activities. We’ll see how it goes.
the most realistic scene in Jurassic Park is when two scientists make a questionable decision — traveling to an undisclosed location with a strange man — on the promise of three years of modest funding
