Husband, father, dude with too many hobbies. (he/him)
Gail's post about her spouse here reminds me: There's a lot of cool stuff about having a partner, but one of my favorite is bragging about all the cool stuff they've done when they won't do it themselves. Forever proud of my wife and all the cool shit she does. MrsPes is pretty damn awesome.
She said Gambit is her favorite character and her nickname has been Gambit since she was a little kid. I never bring up that I write the X-Men but Rocketspouse does every chance she gets. She was so happy to meet someone writing Gambit she almost cried. She said Gambit made her feel seen. 4/
You know, when you find out that the art you like is made by people you've learned hold views you find wholly repugnant, I don't think you need to disavow ever having enjoyed the art. It's okay to acknowledge you liked or loved that art, but are now putting it aside. That was then, this is now.

Holy shit, “Just one small problem Sell their houses to who, Ben? Fucking Aquaman?” is a Haiku
This shit with Taylor Farms is exactly what I’m talking about when I say you may say you “don’t do politics,“ but politics are more than happy to do you. The microbes political bribes got out the door and into your intestines don’t particularly care that you find it all beneath you.
Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
Cool. No reason for me to buy any new Playstation console stuff. God dammit.
PlayStation is ending production of physical discs for new games in January 2028. After this date, new games released on PlayStation will only be available in digital formats. buff.ly/LCejL0r
I realize our country is a clusterfuck sometimes (a lot of the time), but it's doing my heart real good seeing people coming from around the world for the World Cup and experiencing all the cool shit I love about the US.
A 40% pay increase, the right to walk off the job if federal agents (i.e. CBP/ICE) pose a threat to them *and* the contract expires in April 2028 so they can demand more ahead of the Olympics. Shoutout Local 11, shoutout unions.

Always trying to find either good eCommerce sites, or Brick and Mortar stores that have an online presence for my hobbies. Because fuck Amazon.
