It's probably true that the human brain isn't evolved to handle social media, but I think it helps if you envision yourself as a sort of beloved local knave, modestly dining out on your little japes and stories, rather than as a rebel king collecting banners for your bloody campaign for the throne

How's it feel to be seen?

Sorry

Happy Valentines Day
Hope you're okay

Looks sick!

I'm imagining the meeting going well, and Kendrick callin later like,

"It's Kenny. How are you feeling?
Kind of under the weather, like you got the flu?
That would be the ricin I gave you.
I slipped it in that selzter crap you're always putting in your tequila.
Goodbye Drake."

Dude, dems had a majority for like, 3 years. What was their excuse then? Shit's ridiculous. Sick of useless reps sitting on laurels, pumping out nothing for a term and then complaining like they can't do anything. Even when they can, they don't.

Shocking. Who could have predicted this. What oracle could have foreseen. I, for one, am floored at this development.

Okay so my phrasing yesterday was like, hella stilted I realize
Would love to blame being tired or somethin, but I think I was just weirdly feeling it
Been reading Don Quixote, I think it's poisoning the well of my words
But all the same- still here
Still alive
You do the same, please

A mustachio skeleton rests in a box, legs pressed to it's ribs. Pink curtains and soft white veils surround it, two large white record shelves beside them lay covered in stickers. On the skeletons right is a chair, empty. To it's left is two chairs on top of one another, the base of the top chairs underside filled with cards.

Still alive
Despite everything

Hope you're doing well
I've been busy, if not working laboring on my own projects
Maybe some of those projects will be finished soon enough that I may share them at last
I'll do my best not to tinker with "well enough," perfectionist that I often am
Stay well, friend

Goodbye, Hogan
Goodbye, Warrior
And Undertaker

NO FUCKING WAY DID CODY RHODES JUST ENTER THE CHRIS CHAN LORE #RoyalRumble

Unrelated, I've been relistening to Erykah Badu's album, "Mama's Gun," it's still peak.
Would recommend the whole thing, but if you only hear one track, make it "Green Eyes."
Lemme know if you've got any music recommendations.

🔥 TWAS THE STRIKE BEFORE CHRISTMAS! 🔥✊

Starbucks baristas are going on five days of escalating ULP strikes in response to the company backtracking on our promised path forward, starting tomorrow in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle... and soon, from coast-to-coast. 🧵

Fuckin better be, lol

Opened my DMs if you feel comfortable messaging, if not I understand. I wish I could do more, or really anything to help.

I cant avoid the awkwardness of not being mutuals and offering, but I exist and am not intensely busy. If you need someone to talk to I am open to that, no judgement, just venting or whatever would be helpful?

It's so impressive how out of nowhere Bron manages to be here, it's like he literally disappeared into a pocket dimension for a moment. Good work on both these dudes and the camera crew, dope shot

if I had billions of dollars I would do cool things like revive Wishbone and fund a Muppet film adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express with Daniel Craig doing a silly Belgian accent

every year around christmas time the ballet dancers who play the rats in the nutcracker come out with a series of unexplained banger tiktok videos and anyway this is my favorite part of the holiday season

I dont want AAA games anymore, i want games made by a little freak with a vision

From what I've been told, your immune system can be compromised post-op, but it's not generally permanent. I can't recall how long after procedure it restabilizes, but I think it often does.
