@cemurphy.bsky.social have you ever heard the sing-songy rhyme that begins "F**k, f**k, f**k a duck; screw a kangaroo!"

My brain likes to recite it when my body is doing more than it wants to. It did so right after I finished Peacock on Parade, and I got a laugh out of it, thought you might, too.

@lartist.bsky.social Would you ever consider doing a mashup of Stitch and Toothless,

Every fucking ICE agent at these raids looks like he has to buy his own new Truck Nutz every Father's Day because his grown kids are no-contact

Would you say you... Stan Bucky?

@suzbrockmann.bsky.social Hee. Someone posted a meme about how if there were gays in the army in WWII Saving Private Ryan would be a lot shorter. No way would it have taken gay men 3 hours to find Matt Damon. It reminded me of Hot Target and Jack Shelton's stories of the Ghost Army.
Me:"There WERE!"

We can upload 3 minute videos now.

YOU KNOW THE RULE

@numtini.bsky.social Isn't Bill Keating your rep? Someone to be proud of today.

Grounded with @atakash.bsky.social and our friend Jordan tonight. Poor Ata has a owie, but is actually on the mend! In 2, 2½ hours or so, come see us on twitch.tv/atakash as we navigate the back yard and hopefully find a way to re-embiggen ourselves!

I don't know if Cuddle Dungeons are still a thing, but I had a fantastic idea for one. Staffed by rescue pit bulls. They make such amazing cuddle buddies. But yeah, human touch is such a need for us as humans that babies have literally died without it.

and so, class, as we have seen, the most effective way to distinguish good from evil is to give it power. unfortunately, the experiment can only be repeated at great cost

Eeeeeeeee!! Yay!

@johnrogers.bsky.social you should join us over there. We're pretty good at boundaries for parasocial relationships, as Wil can tell you.

@suzbrockmann.bsky.social Is it a little loony for me to picture a buffed-up Ian Ziering as Izzy Zanella? I just feel like they have the same irreverent energy.

Woke up yesterday with Raven snuggled up, her back to mine. First thought was "Happiness is a warm dog."

Tell yourself you're going to eat nothing but sugar for a week. Actually do it for a day. Contrarian brain will induce nausea at the mere thought of sugar.

@cemurphy.bsky.social Chapter 27 of Shaman Rises will never ever ever not BREAK me. Even knowing what's coming.

Love, honed to a blade by loss.

I did! It was just filtered through ground coffee beans first!

Yay! Glad for the move, hope the dating was a positive experience over all, hope the after affects of the surgeries are minimal except the feeling better part! Things are fantastic with me. Still have the sweetest pupper in the universe.

And there's usually tears running down my face, too...

"Though lovers be lost, Love shall not
And Death shall have NO FUCKING DOMINION!"

Have been a little slower, but picking up as it races toward the finish. Just finished No Dominion again, and apologies to Dylan Thomas, I always finish the book and (mis)quote the title quote out loud while punching my fist in the air.

Not paying much attention to Bluesky. But I prefer to communicate here rather than Twitter (will never not call it that, harumph) Otherwise, pretty fantastic. How be a you?

@quiara.net I saw this and thought of you.

"Joanne Walker is a mechanic who happened to go to the police academy, and on her way home from her mother's funeral, gets entangled with ancient Celtic gods, trickster spirit guides, and other assorted pains in the ass. And that's just book one."

@cemurphy.bsky.social I'm giggling at myself. My succinct summary of the Walker Papers (which I am in the process of rereading):

@cemurphy.bsky.social This reminded me of Roses in Amber.
