The Funko (aka one of my most prized possessions) is autographed by Debi Derryberry, the voice actor for Jimmy Neutron, Cheer Bear (the current iteration anyway), and GW2’s little science genius of their very own — Taimi!

Gosh I can’t wait to upgrade my PC. Tax return please arrive faster. I can barely play anything right now and it’s driving me mad. Why did my ram die now when ram is like $500?

He is one of those fake Christian nuts and lost his PR training when fandom suggested Danny is FTM and Dash was gay. He expressed a shitty opinion. But we all just ignore it and continue to love his media bc he’s not doing what JK Rowling is doing.

This brought up a convo about where I draw the line, separate the art from the artist, etc. My line is that Rowling uses HP profit to fund anti trans orgs & legislation. Another artist whose media I love is homophonic and transphobic: Butch Hartmann, creator of Danny Phantom of Fairly Odd Parents.

I wish I one day not be triggered by Harry Potter. It was once such a big part of my life. If 15yo me so these… even 20yo me… I would be over the moon. But Jo’s transphobia has given me the ultimate ick. I’m disappointed in Care Bears, progressive & inclusive, would even consider this collab.

Sorry been MIA guys. Between the holidays and starting up medication again I’ve just been absolutely dead tired.

Every time I buy a Care Bear in person the cashier is always overjoyed and we talk about Care Bears for the whole transaction and nothing makes me feel more high than these interactions.

One of the absolute biggest surprises but most precious gifts I got this year is the full set of #JimmyNeutron Welch's Drinking Glasses. Thanks, Mom, for remembering my very first weird special interest and rolling with it 20+ years later, I am absolutely delighted.

Stop Walking on Eggshells (some1 u know has BPD); The Body Keeps the Score (all about trauma); The Whole Brained Child & Hold On to Your Kids (if you have/work with kids); Unfuck Your Brain (anxiety/depress); What My Bones Know (more trauma); Children of Emotionally Immature Parents (abuse)

THIS THIS THIS. My therapist assigned it to me along with the workbook and it’s helped so much.

Being met with the reality of my 10yo PC finally crapping out but now with adult bills is depressing the shit out of me. What do you mean I have to save hundreds of dollars bc my computer doesn’t have a stupid little chip? Why is my graphics card struggling to run games I’ve played this whole time?

We’re deeply saddened by the passing of Jim Ward, the unforgettable voice of Tybalt Leftpaw and other characters in Guild Wars 2. His warmth and talent brought Tybalt to life and into our hearts. We’re grateful for his work and his legacy in Tyria. Thank you, Jim.

Omfg the clay. The CLAY. Homesteading has made me do more Dry Top than I’ve ever done.

I love how this looks though!

The dread I feel at the concept of wrapping 20 presents of awkward shapes is unmatched.

Finally… FINALLY… done with Christmas shopping. For Ollie at least. Now to go wild 12/22-12/24 getting the remainder of everyone else’s gifts (only 2 more peeps). I even managed to get myself two presents this time.

Still proud of this one, even though it's now 6 years old. Time sure flies, but i continue falling.

Latest “odd” thing on Ollie’s safe food list… raw scallions. How was it discovered you might ask?

They found him eating them at recess.

Straight out the ground.

She genuinely thinks she knows better for real she slips up regularly and calls herself mama which my partner has addressed many times lol.

I would do this except if she doesn’t see them out somewhere (bc she knows I put the bears out) she assumes we “lost” them. 🫠 I guess he could make money in the future?

And yeah unless he shows interest, which he won’t bc he can’t immediately feel if he likes the texture of boxed bears, hell no am I going to take them out of the box and ruin their 20+ year old value. So thanks for gifting me a collectors item instead of getting him something he will actually use.

And yes we did get him a CB squishmallow for Xmas but since she was insisting on getting him Care Bears we focused on his other interests because she quite literally was only getting him Care Bears.
