My cat Rocket.

My cat Rocket.

I love how he snuggles up so close to me that his fluff pushes up against the book I'm reading like this.

Where/how do you meet people in Louisiana who are open-minded (ie, not right-wing), like to read, have creative hobbies, etc?

Social media is weird. My views and likes are up on TikTok this month, but I lost followers overall.

Kind of hard to figure out what to do to grow sometimes.

Have you ever experienced the ecstasy of gold?

Iguanodon is a classic. Love the ode.

I did always love Allosaurus. Definitely got Iguanodon and Diplodocus on the list, too, actually have names picked out for them.

I'm working on translating dinosaur names into Old Norse, which leads me to the question: what do you think are the most iconic dinosaurs? And which do you think are underrated?

Nothing can replace that feeling of making an epic prank call as a kid. Nothing.

I think he approves of Pindar.

Thank you. And good question. They rarely take down content from big names, because they make them so much money. No problem shutting down smaller creators, though. Sad state of affairs.

Ha, very true. YouTube has a high opinion of my criminal empire!

Pretty sad how transparently our corporate overlords crack down on every small attempt to criticize them and hold them accountable.

I've worked hard on this channel for over eight years, and just recently got monetized. Now it's all being taken away because I dared to speak out against oligarchy.

YouTube deleted my video about Jesus and Luigi Mangione and suspended monetization on my entire channel, simply because in the video I pointed out that the words "manger" and "Mangione" are cognate and that perhaps history is trying to teach us a lesson about eating the rich.

Namor doesn't get enough credit for being a hater with taste.

Do not forget the dead who have left us alive.

This country doesn't even want its people to have access to healthcare, let alone the stars.

I genuinely remember growing up thinking that we would travel to Mars soon, and that space exploration and some sense of global unity would be realities. I never in my darkest dreams believed we'd be living in the dystopian hellscape we now live in.

Rex has once again decided that I am to pay attention to him, not read.

Recording myself reading poetry from the Hรกvamรกl in Old Norse as Count Orlok. Oh yeah.

It's absolutely a disgrace, and a sad indicator of the current state of this country.

I figured that because it's Nosferatu season I would start reading #DRCL midnight children. It's a manga based on Bram Stoker's Dracula, and the art is incredible.
