A close friend/former guildie of my wife’s is a very wholesome and well-accomplished person who secured her dream job with the CDC during Biden’s administration, just to have that job abolished by Trump/DOGE pretty much immediately. It was a very high-up/directoral position involving the outreach of sexual education/awareness for special needs individuals, who are often the unwilling/misunderstanding partipants of sexual abuse. Her entire department was ruled non-essential and was eliminated overnight. I guess it fucked her up pretty bad. She’s okay now, but is back to square one, searching for a suitable job.

Fuck Donald Trump and fuck DOGE.

That’s fucking awesome! That’s also how you end up running with a sect of druids.

Love this. I think not having driving was a huge contributor to my introvertedness/social anxiety. My friends were always super accommodating, but night after night I would end up stuck in places I didn’t want to be, entirely at the mercy of someone else. Was my ride drinking? Guess I’m sleeping on the floor of some weird house I don’t want to be at. My social battery would drain by 10pm and I would have to bounce around asking various friends if I couple catch a ride with them when they left, and often didn’t get out of there until 3am. It wasn’t a situation I enjoyed being in. Sometimes it was easier to be the walking wizard.

One night I was extremely drunk on Southern Comfort and mad/butt-hurt over something my love interest had said or done. Decided to walk all the way home at 2am. Unfortunately that was a 14 mi/22 km walk through a rural area, deeply intoxicated with no water. It was beautiful hearing the roosters crow over sleepy little farms at sunrise, but by the time I finally made it home I collapsed onto my bed sobbing in misery. I slept for eleven hours and spent the next day or so recovering. It’s not always noble to be the walking wizard.

Wow, that does provoke strong imagery. That’s a great looking dog in a great looking race. I hope he wins.

Saw an idiot on social media say, “Sometimes you have to knock it down to rebuild”, in response to Trump killing the Department of Education. I asked him it he figures Trump has a concept of a plan to rebuild critical institutions.

My daughter (5) uses WASD proficiently, so I have hope.

They did this in Calgary and then everyone’s teeth went tits up.

My grandma had me like this when I was ten. We used to sit at her kitchen table and look them up as they flew in. I knew that thing front to back. Used to sit over there all the time looking through the pictures. She died some years ago, but I still have that old green copy of Audubon Guide to Eastern Birds. Made sure to ask for it when she died. It no longer reeks like cigarettes, but it’s all browned and brittle.

My daughter (5) loves birds now too, and we used to consult my grandma’s guide together. However, we now live in Western Canada and I was worried about the longevity of such a fragile relic, so I purchased the Western edition. Nearly identical, but red. Now my daughter runs to grab that whenever we see a new bird at the feeder.

I just blurt it out when my wife asks. It’s always the most mundane, unrelated shit. I’ll be thinking about what drove Mike Myer’s choice to make Shrek Scottish. That said, she doesn’t stress over what I’m thinking about. She’s not insecure. She just wonders what’s going on in the box sometimes. I’ll have that look. My wife is great.

I lived in the States for 30 years and Canada for 10. As an unofficial ambassador to both countries, I can confidently weigh in that you perfectly embody the American stereotype. You are loud, angry, spiteful, and removed. (starts with an R and ends with a D)

Flights that give Biscoff truly treat you like a king. Never mind all that other stuff. You’re on a Biscoff flight. 👑

Elon won’t do it. He’s a pussy. He will back out and start calling Stewart a pedo on social media.

I don’t think I could handle it these days at age 37, but I miss staying up for days on Adderall in my early 20s, playing Skyrim and shit. There was no greater feeling of adventure. A lot of jacking off, too. Sometimes the jacking off got in the way.

Wild that these perfectly normal unusual waves keep happening among Trump’s inner circle during speeches. These perfectly average waves that look quite a lot like sieg heils and have never really been sighted or performed by US political figures outside of these perfectly normal waves that have started happening since Trump’s inauguration.

YOU STARTED THIS WAR! PLUNGED SKYRIM INTO CHAOS…

Why are they all so square? Is this a side effect of putting loads inside of your family members?

People just feel the need to be edgy about everything.

Apparently that exact pronunciation is on their website.

Buckley?

Jesus Christ…
