I want to make this perfectly clear:
If my friends lose rights, and you celebrate that, or are even okay with it, you are no friend of mine and you can unfriend me now before I find you and do it myself.

The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything and everything we can save is worth saving. You may need to grieve or scream or take time off, but you have a role no matter what, and right now good friends and good principles are worth gathering in. Remember what you love. Remember what loves you. Remember in this tide of hate what love is. The pain you feel is because of what you love.

I didn't sleep well. I woke up feeling awful. I didn't want to even try to function today.

But at work they are having a health and safety fair. I did the one mile walk. I have a healthy snack in me. I'm still not okay, but I am feeling more functional.

I am not holding back on my use of the block feature. If I see someone posting BS today, 🚫. Plain and simple.

No.
I am not okay.
Not today.

But tomorrow, I will get up and fight on.
Not just for me, but for all the people who's lives are now at very real risk from these hateful fucks.

And woe be to anyone who tries to stop me. I'm too damn old to give a fuck, but still young enough to know how to fight dirty.

My plans for today include avoiding election coverage. I have my job to do, and I will be up early tomorrow to go into the office. It's about protecting my peace today during a time where things may be heated at times. My vote is already counted. I'm otherwise done with what I can do. I can only wait for the final results.

To all who are working the election today, I wish you as uneventful day as possible. May the wheels of democracy turn smoothly for you.


When you start your work day near 0500 because you have an entire server room to bring back online, get out of the office at noon, and come home hungry, you cook:
Creamy Spinach Chicken with Butter Roasted Vegetables

Breakfast, shopping, then going home to play video games and chill.

Returning to the Sienar Fleet Systems shipyards today. Continuing the Lego TIE Interceptor build for @stjude.bsky.social Creative Season.

Halloween success. Kids came down a street with lots of houses without lights on to get to me. The bags of chips were more popular than the candy bars. Everyone was excited about an inflatable Wookie with a purple lightsaber, even wanting pictures. Having music added to the party atmosphere.

Now I'm feeling energized to do something even more for next year.

Come and get some! And playing my video game music Pandora station. Party time.

I am prepared to distribute unhealthy food stuffs to small (and not so small) humans.

For the record, this came from David Gerold's FB feed. So this is officially cannon.

Everyone gets treats at my house tonight. Even the adults just walking the kids around. I'm not gonna hoard. Just gonna have fun.

It’s not selfish to know that you deserve better!
