Fell down the Tiktok FF/book binding rabbit hole last night.  SMH.  What is wrong with people?

Love the dragon! ❤️

How thoughtful that spammers are self-reporting themselves in the “Trolls/Flamers/Spammers” section of the forums… sigh.  Can we hang/draw/quarter them?

well that was a fun birthday! NOT! damn 13 yr old nephew had to throw a fit cuz i wanted to go to a bar for my birthday! I spent the WHOLE DAY with him..ugh! im 39yrs old and im already tired. 

So. Is it colder than a witch’s cunt where y’all are, too? No? Just us? Muh-zurr-uh’s done froze over, folks. 

Dunno why my mind came up with this quote, it was there when I woke up...still, be good starter for a story.

Never realized my writing skills would boil down to helping TinyDancer write fellowship applications ...

When the mind's stumped, spontaneously add in a murder attempt to the story, that’ll spice things up.

I’m ALIVE!

Working till Christmas
I worry about these youngings, We’re already on a skeleton crew and two got themselves fired for “the message” Like what message is worth that?

I want to wish a happiest of birthdays, to our magnificent @BronxWench 
May the day be wonderful and full of delight. And here’s to another full circle around the sun.   
All gifts in the form of shimmering gold and very sparsely clothed pretties that we may have in our possession, especially of the impish and the elvish variety, will be happily accepted. Gold will be kept, but pretties will be returned, unscathed and very exhausted. 

I hate having to write “storyline calendars” for fanfiction, especially when the original author could care less.  But not writing the calendars is even worse. (Sigh.)

“I hereby curse thee to always burning thy bacon.”

What I say: “Are any of you injured?” Amir asked.
What my phone hears: “Are any of you injured? I'm your ass.”

“Len, don’t become a drunk.  Otherwise, stick to ale.  After all, ale will never lock you out of your own house and bust up all of your belongings in the front garden just ‘cause you’ve had another pint!”  Would you expect to read this in a “T” rated fanfiction?

Good news, day 7:
In the US Senate, a bipartisan bill has been introduced that would make the sellers of tickets to concerts and other live events give you the full price up front (ie, without hidden fees).

That moment when you keep hearing a soprano velociraptor playing one-sided Marco Polo out in the hallway and realize, oh, no, it’s just the Velcro cat wailing pitifully because you locked him out of the office. 
Woozle. Because of course, it’s Woozle. Never mind that I locked him out because I have cramps, a headache, and writer’s block, and I don’t feel up to fending off his usual shenanigans. By Shenanigans, I mean shaking slobber everywhere, whining, trying to insinuate his fat butt between the desk and my rack, and trying to scale Mount Mom’s-Desk and causing a landslide.
Kid, Mama needs to work! Stay in your box!

Good news, day 2:
Even though there’s a lot of talk about shoplifting these days, it’s less common now than it was before the pandemic. 
Is Shoplifting Really Surging?

There’s a lot of bad news out there these days. So I’ve decided that every day for the next week, I’ll post one piece of good news.
To decrease summer heat and improve air quality, New York City’s city council has decided to up NYC’s tree canopy coverage from 22% to 30%. A lidar-based mapping system will be used to identify places where the new trees would do the most good.
