#Drachenfest AU plans: Well, I've joined the Discord for the Blue Dragon faction, so I guess the decision has been made? Guess I should start planning to buckle my swash, if you know what I mean... :)

*standing up on the plane* "Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis, and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to bear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow."
*standing up on the plane* ok buckle up I’m going to give the carp speech from Exorcist III
Spin-off idea: Mr Squiggle as a burnt-out detective trying to find the squiggles inside the Zodiac Killer's messages. I mean, it's no worse a concept than MR SQUIGGLE: FURY ROAD, right? #MrSquiggle #AusTV

The door is shut, the sign has been flipped to closed. The least you could do was knock first and not just barge in. To his credit, he was apologetic and actually bought something, but it still makes me want to lock the door as soon as I close up. #retail
It's just so pretty... Also, triggers the sensory thing I have were it's soothing running it between my fingers. Op shops for the win! Purchased as possible #LARP kit, but I may wear it some day if I can find a suitable outfit/occasion.
Gutted to see that Bill Oddie has died. Another icon of my childhood, indeed my life, has gone. Feeling the urge to belt someone with a black pudding in his memory. #TheGoodies

I know I've spent too long on the internet, but my first thought on seeing that was "Rusty Rabbit? It's either a sex position or a vibrator repair service."
Having one of those days when the little things makes me want to kill. Shoes scuffing across floors, that "Hey..." that screams a fuckup has happened. Interruptions and chaos all around.

"Computers may be twice as fast as they were in 1973, bit your average voter is as drunk and stupid as ever."
What's a Futurama line that lives forever in your head? Mine is, "Oh, a lesson in not changing history from Mr. I'm My Own Grandpa."
I was today years old when I found not only is the Scholastic Book Club still running, but I'm just as excited about flipping through it as I was as a kid. The more things change, eh? #nostalgia #books
As much as I'm torn between Black Sails and Muppet Treasure Island, I have to give it to the Muppets, and not just for the Tim Curry/Miss Piggy romance.

Looking at going to #Drachenfest Aus in October and realised this is an opportunity to use the swashbuckling Orc idea I've had kicking around for years. Might this be the time? #AusLARP
A while back I found an Aunty Jack 45, and immediately bought it for a friend. Recently, he sent me this picture, saying "I found something for you." I have the best friends. #books #CaptainBlood #pirates #AuntyJack

Rewatching #BlackSails as game research, and gods, I love this show. It's a rocky start, but when it gets good, it's stunning. Ray Stevenson (May he #RIP) is my favorite Blackbeard. What he may lack in theatrics, he more than makes up for in gravitas and presence.

I've already been plagued by strange dreams/nightmares of late (exams, deadlines, and pimple like growths that require lancing or extracting), so a car alarm repeatedly going off at 1am loval time *hasn't* helped my mood.
