I'm officially back in the business after a nearly 20-year detour! My kids kept asking me if they could eat EVERY day and I relented and switched hobby with day job. But thanks to a lot of soul-searching and mental battling, and a chance encounter with the wonderful Haley Spitzenberger, I'm signed and ready to get back on the screen!
Maybe I'll try this thing again. Literally can't hurt.

love that this didn’t get nasty or overly sexual. awesome.
Are you and AndrAIa happier now that the webwars are over? Follow up question, Do you miss Hex even a little because of her sacrifice?
Happy? We have no time for happy, sprite. With Megabyte having infiltrated Mainframe again and with new powers we don't even fully understand, happiness is a luxury for other systems. And not for very long if he gets his way. All I know is my trigger finger is itchy all the time, and AndrAIa's claws are out more than I'd like to see.And a virus is always a virus. I appreciate the sacrifice Hex made for us, but I feel just a little bit safer with her gone. Can you imagine if the new and improved Megabyte managed to re-merge with her? We'd be even more hopeless than we are already.But that's not the worst of the news. Rumor is from a code source we call YTV that the entire Net is due for a complete reformatting. I hear tell that young Users will be allowed directly into the systems, outside of games, under the guise of a so-called Guardian Protocol. I don't like it. I don't trust it. It goes against everything Mainframe has stood for. We Mainframers have to stick together.Stay frosty.
the phrase “curiosity killed the cat” is actually not the full phrase it actually is “curiosity killed the cat but satisfaction brought it back” so don’t let anyone tell you not to be a curious little baby okay go and be interested in the world uwu

Blood is thicker than water The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.
Meaning that relationships formed by choice are stronger than those formed by birth.
Let’s not forget that “Jack of all trades, master of none” ends with “But better than a master of one.”
It means that being equally good/average at everything is much better than being perfect at one thing and sucking at everything else. So don’t worry if you’re not perfect at something you do! Being okay is better!
These made me feel better
Also, “great minds think alike” ends with “but fools rarely differ”
It goes to show that conformity isn’t always a good thing. And that just because more than one person has the same idea, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a good idea.
what the fuck why haven’t i heard the full version to any of these
“Birds of a feather flock together” ends with “until the cat comes.”
It’s actually a warning about fair-weather friends, not an assessment of how complementary people are.
Fascinating collection of expanded quotes.
oh my god im laughing because apparently so many people not familiar with the british education system think that the whole school houses thing was a made up thing in harry potter?? like no we actually have those
the houses at my school are named after constellations and i’m in draco
our houses were named after the people that lived there (it was a monastery, then a country house then a school) Augustine (aster the monks) Howard (family of henry viii 5th wife, Warren (after William de Warrenne, who faught with William the conqueror) and Lymden.
the houses at ours were named after types of trees: aspen, beech, larch, rowan, and willow. i was in willow. we had house points as well, and this tiny plastic trophy that would be awarded to whichever house got the most points.
I... I can’t tell if they’re messing with me...
Straight White Girl is offended by LUSH’s LGBT valentine’s day posts and upset that there’s not “straight couple representation”
Hahahaha. What about the poor, underrepresented straight couples?! When will advertising finally remember their forgotten love?
If you're going to make a registry of Muslims... make a registry of all pro-lifers. They could shoot up a Planned Parenthood.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
THOSE WERE ONLY A COUPLE OF INCIDENTS YOU ASSHOLE! Compared to the MAAAANY terrorist attacks by radical muslims
Wow. Can we just appreciate this cognitive dissonance here. “Only a couple of incidents” versus ‘many attacks by radical Muslims’
Like, they aren’t even denying that pro-lifers have blown up clinics but it’s different because it supposedly happened less times within the US than attacks by radical Muslim extremists.
I’m not sure why you said “supposedly” when it is less.
According to statistics gathered by the National Abortion Federation (NAF), an organization of abortion providers, since 1977 in the United States and Canada, there have been 17 attempted murders, 383 death threats, 153 incidents of assault or battery, 13 wounded,[12] 100 butyric acid stink bomb attacks, 373 physical invasions, 41 bombings, 655 anthrax threats,[13] and 3 kidnappings committed against abortion providers.
Meanwhile, between 1970 and today there have been a grand total of 13 terrorist attacks by Muslim extremists within the US and 8 in Canada.
So, even if you only count the terrorist attacks in which damage was done. You’re looking at 587 successful terrorist attacks from pro-lifers (not included death and anthrax threats) and 21 terrorist attacks from extreme Muslim fundamentalists.
That is why supposedly is there.
Pro-lifers are quantitatively, significantly, statistically, a larger threat to public peace than Muslim extremists.
It’s not a lie, tho, it’s just an alternative fact.
My Star Wars Story
[Rogue One spoilers within]
The loss of Carrie Fisher today is hitting me very hard, and I feel almost guilty for that, because my story is not that of many of the other Star Wars fans.
I didn’t really “grow up” with the films. I’m just young enough that the original trilogy had been fully released by the time I was born, so I didn’t get to see them in the theaters or anticipate them. And while I *did* see them as a kid, I didn’t watch them voraciously like others did. I probably saw A New Hope more than once, at least, and I know I saw the rest, and they were well-cemented in my memory. But I had no toys. No clothes. No merch of any sort. I didn’t identify with the films. They weren’t a major component of my childhood. They were just films I had seen and enjoyed, and that were standard parts of pop culture. Honestly, I probably knew nearly as much about Star Trek at the time, which I had never watched as a kid. I simply absorbed pop culture knowledge.
It wasn’t until adulthood that I made an effort to do more. I rewatched them on VHS at a friend’s house when I was 18, and then maybe 6 years ago in their “special edition” (shudder) forms, at which point I finally also choked down Episodes I and II before, oddly, calling it quits right before the good prequel film.
So no, I’m not a person who can call himself a dedicated, or lifelong fan by any traditional sense.
But last year a lot changed. After my kids moved in with me full-time, and a couple years of hype over Disney’s new ownership of the franchise, and with Episode VII’s trailers filling me with a sense of joy I couldn’t fully compute, I got to show the films to my kids for the first time (sort of; each recognized elements they had already seen, but missing context), and experience them anew (and completely fresh in the case of Episode III) both through their eyes and with maturity and nostalgia combining to color what they meant to me. And they very suddenly turned personal. Very personal. They started to become a part of me in a way I didn’t expect up until that point, and the characters mattered in ways they had never fully clicked before then. My kids picked up connections and loves too, and it was fascinating to see how the prequels impacted them differently (they both begged to stop watching Episode I, but both grew deep attachments to Anakin’s story by the end of Episode III).
It was with that sense of new connection that I watched Episode VII on opening night at the Chinese Theatre and felt a pure sense of unbridled joy. Like that film had been made for me. Like somehow a lifetime of missed connections with the franchise had filled in magically, and I was a true Star Wars fan. And the return of all the people I now loved, a little older, a little sadder, meant everything. And even my kids got it too, despite all of the films having been compressed into weeks leading up to it instead of decades.
[Spoiler Paragraph] I saw Rogue One on Christmas day with my family just a few days ago. The story behind the original story’s beginning was deeply powerful to me at this point, and the sacrifices made to explain something that seemed so trivial in the original film that’s been with me since my son’s current age filled me with awe. And while I was crying already when those ultimate sacrifices reached their inevitable conclusion, the final new shot of a young Princess Leia, seen after the older but still tough-as-nails General Leia only a year earlier in Episode VII (and nights before in our re-watch), and knowing full well the actress who brought her so perfectly to life for all those years was lying in a hospital bed fighting for her life, completely broke me.[/Spoiler Paragraph]
I was too young when I first saw Star Wars to find Leia sexy as many apparently did, no thanks to the slave outfit. I didn’t even see her as young then because adults were old. And by the time I saw it with true appreciation of the film, she was just a young woman, and so many other efforts had been made to carry on the torch of strong women in film, so that aspect of her personality wasn’t fresh and new to me. But she was such a deeply specific strong young woman; one unlike anyone else, even now. She was incomparable anyway. And without ever realizing, she seeped into my consciousness as someone who was a part of my life. The entire cast did, surely. But right now, clear as day, with the loss of the woman who truly created her as we know and love her, she meant so much more than I had any comprehension.
Every photo I see of her right now as that young princess-turned-general fills me with joy and pain. They’re all simply perfect in their own ways. Innocent and young and historical and yet so strong and iconic and timeless and current. And it’s stunning to me that through this amazing medium we have of film, and the incomparable phenomenon that is Star Wars, that she is, in some not-insignificant way, just about as immortal as a person can be.
I’m sorry we didn’t get more of her. For all the ways Star Wars was overextended, and the prequels failed us, and good arguments can be made for how it should have been left as it was, now I can say that every moment we have of Leia as Carrie Fisher invented her on screen will never be enough to accurately encompass how much she filled our heads.
So no, I didn’t have everyone else’s Star Wars story, and no, I don’t feel like I have the right to lay claim to it and its characters the way so many others do. But right now Star Wars is deeply, deeply personal to me, and this loss hurts so much more than I thought it could.
Thank you, Carrie, for bringing someone to life that people like me didn’t even know meant so much to us. You’ll be missed and enjoyed simultaneously for decades to come.
Dear See’s Candies
Hey, See's Candies, we need to talk:
I know you think it's cute and fun for people to be "surprised" by what's in the chocolate they pick up out of your box. And maybe, at one time, that was the case for enough people that it was worth holding onto it. But now it's nearly 2017. You know, full well, how many people have major, major problems with various foods. Ignoring people with nut allergies, who one has to assume are avoiding your entire line due to cross contamination, there are so many limitations people have with foods that outright ruin the entire experience. The risk of biting into a coconut or walnut really makes me nervous to even bother. For some people that's coffee, or other common flavors. At a certain point I'd rather just skip the effort altogether, and I CERTAINLY won't bother to buy a box that I know will not only be partially wasted, but fill me with dread more than wonder with each bite I try.
So maybe, just maybe, you could follow down the path of your competitors and start including a chart in your box so people like me don't avoid your brand altogether in fear anymore?
Thanks!
