When I first saw that episode, I was genuinely disappointed Goat's robot fell apart right away. However, I expected it to as well.

I may have been disappointed if fell apart, but the comedy more than made up for it, LOL!

I should give Downtown a look sometime.

Money need to stop spending me

I also want to feel fine treating myself, not guilty. It's been hard shedding that behavior from myself.

Today is the anniversary of Dead End Season 2.

But the story didn't end there... because next year DEADENDIA: THE DIVINE ORDER will answer all your questions.

Join me in counting down to the COVER REVEAL of BOOK THREE with some teasers of what's to come.

Five days to go...

I need to buy these books sometime! I'm happy they come digitally

I remember when domestic terrorism was taken more seriously. Every year that passes since the Oklahoma bombing makes me wonder how many people have forgotten that event.

Domestic terrorism isn't something to scoff at

Look, Biden isn't my first choice, either. But it's going to be one of these two guys, and I'm not voting for the rapist.

Biden isn't my first choice, either. With that being said, I would love to see another candidate take the reins. Preferably somebody that fits my politics a little better.

However, I've not heard of a presidential incumbent stepping out of the race. I genuinely worry that 2024 is going to suck! I'm considering looking into getting my absentee ballot ASAP since I can't go out in public easily during voting season. I didn't get to vote in 2020 because I didn't set everything up in time.

2016 was even worse. I ordered a ballet and never received it. The only saving grace is I live in a blue state where it's improbable someone like Trump will win the vote

I Still Struggle with Using My Tumblr More Often

I'll admit that one of the reasons why I haven't been able to enjoy Tumblr like I used to is it's become so commercialized.

Granted, I shouldn't be surprised. Most social media eventually morphs into a commercialized entity.

It's no secret that my biggest complaint about the current state of Tumblr is the blaze option. It reminds me of how Twitter Blue (X is a stupid name) will allow more airtime for subscribers than free accounts. I may want to reach more people but I don't want to pay just to reach them.

I'm not trying to be some social media mogul looking to make big bucks. I'm just some random fortysomething who wants to find an audience who reads my ramblings and follows my posts, but nothing more. If there is more, I wouldn't mind other users sharing my content, but it's unnecessary.

The term has become so ridiculous that I've heard (usually from someone fitting the stereotype of an alpha male) comments about how we shouldn't call the current generation of kids Generation Alpha because it will make the following generations feel inadequate. Just because they are called Generation Alpha doesn't mean the alpha male definition should come into play.

It's also been argued in conjunction with the argument that new generations are "too sensitive."

I'm practicing writing alt text for images. I want to write something better than "An image of a chubby cartoon character crossing his arms and smiling smugly."

I manipulated this screengrab using Lunapic.

“Approximately 200 protesters gathered on a tree-lined residential street on Staten Island on Thursday night, many with high-powered flashlights on hand. They wielded those flashlights like strobes, beaming bright, jerky light over police barriers, into the windows of a former school where around 60 asylum seekers are living temporarily. Meanwhile, a man named Johnny Tabacco, a bitcoin-guy-turned-Newsmax-host, wearing an oversized blue pinstripe suit and slicked-back hair, stood on a truck bed and bellowed in a gravelly voice through a PA system that was turned up so loud that this reporter’s ears were still ringing hours later. Tabacco, who is one of the organizers, conceded in a short interview later on that the decibel level was by design. The organizers wanted to send a deafening message to their new neighbors: “You’re not welcome here.””

Historical facts revealing corruption and racism are only dangerous to those who are currently corrupt and racist.

[twinkenjoyer-deactivated2023083]

if the truth is so dangerous to the current order, maybe that order needs to be dismantled
