I dread sleep
where cruel dreams
take #root -

cruel because
you're alive there
and it felt so very
real -

a paradox
where I hope
I see you there
again
and yet never

Over The Garden Wall The grass is a metaphor

My latest #Poetry Sunday #poem is live. Not to brag, but my last poem was in consideration to be featured on a poetry Instagram page if I paid them enough money. I will continue to try to stay humble and grounded.

#Loveisland is an absolutely wild show. "Hey let me make out with someone who just made out with someone else 5 seconds ago!" Naw dude.

#Clerks is the most important #movie of my life. It really defined my 20s in particular. Do you guys have a movie that really hit hard for you?

Watching an episode of #SNL from 2011 and weekend update had a joke about how #trump would never be #president. Those were simpler times.

Anyone else used to play #neopets? Here's my little guy all grown up. I distinctly remember creating him in my aunt's basement when I was in middle school. Weird to think about.

If they find those votes does that mean Trump was actually president from 2021-2025 and it's unconstitutional for him to be serving this third term?

I wrote this about the love for my youthful stomping grounds and to mourn its loss.

That whole album is a masterpiece. I remember loading it on to my mp3 player which only held like 30 songs. It stayed on there for a long time.

Paid to not work? Sounds like a welfare program. But socialism bad?

Basements Are Stupid and I'm Over Them The world's most expensive hot shower

Homeownership brings so many great joys and surprises. This week my basement flooded because water heaters are super bizarrely designed.

Someone Please Fight For Me P.S. Fuck ICE

As someone who lives in Minnesota but is unable to fight, this is a plea to all those who can. Also included is some straight up indignant rage that I am feeling about yesterdays execution.

This is one the of the dumbest things I've ever read. "He could tell me 'fuck you' and I would fellate him." These magas should read some of the dark romances my wife reads. They have a lot in common with the characters who seem to love being abused and locked in basements and shit.

What if you're watching a movie about books on your phone and you cast it to your television?

Stomping Grounds Welcome to Poetry Sunday.

This #poem is dedicated to anyone who had a place growing up where they spent most of their days. I basically lived in this park as a teenager and have countless memories from there. I miss it very much.

I gave it a watch having not watched any previous seasons. The gameplay seems fun but it's so ridiculously overdramatic. I don't mean the feuds, more the overproduction and cheesy music. I've committed to the whole season though.

Extreme Makeover: Kitchen Drawer Edition A tale of six full dumpsters and three empty junk drawers

I watched a #hoarders den get cleared out this week and it inspired me to straighten up my kitchen. More on this in the latest #boymeetsvoid

These stupid fascists don't even know not to run on literal ice. They're not bright enough to comprehend shit.

I just read that #Meta is going to be laying off a bunch of #metaverse people. Who could have foreseen that being a terrible idea! Oh, me.

I also rage about #Facebookmarketplace and those stupid fucking #metaglasses which are making #raybans even less cool in my newest post.

Today I've written a piece on the community I found on #substack. It wasn't the one I expected, but damn is it full of #whimsy
