And it's so intriguing so far! Very excited to see these characters glare suspiciously at each other through their next adventure

If he's like me, he specifically trained himself to stop bikes in a way that, on a coaster bike, makes you inadvertently brake kinda hard and get alarmed and maybe yell a little. Even if coaster brakes were a no-brainer as a child!

"I ended up in the newspaper for being queer, against my will, without having come out to anyone beforehand" is a genuine nightmare that I'm sure people have had, but you've found such an inventive way to make it worse.

Please check your kidsโ€™ Halloween candy carefully this year.

I bit into a chocolate bar and found Microsoft Teams.

I love unnecessarily sexy statues. My favorite being Thirst Trap Lincoln from the LA County Superior Courthouse.

All bodies are good bodies. Take pride in your scales and razor-sharp claws. Your dozens of pulsing eyes, blacker than the void itself, are lovely. Donโ€™t be ashamed of your enormous tentacles, moist and writhing as you grope for a billionaireโ€™s yacht. To me you are perfect.

Assuming Joe gave Joyce that weighted blanket before seeing the news...I'd guess when he did see, he thought back to how weird she was about it and also the sex that ensued and started his mental wheels spinning.

Star Trek Voyager scene. Seven of Nine (tertiary adjunct of unimatrix 01) is pictured. She has a dolphin shaped metal robotic implant around her left eye because she is a borgs. Closed caption reads, "Fun will now commence."

Do townie life right! Enjoy cheap theater. Feel safe walking along lively streets at night. People-watch near Halloween. Take over the town all summer and thank the missing kids for their custom, which lured the businesses in the first place.

Never attempt brunch during the school year.

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like itโ€™s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster youโ€™d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals wonโ€™t talk about their missing kids

Of course inane observational humor is an aphrodisiac to Dorothy. That tracks perfectly with her attraction to Walky

I'm sad because Joe does not deserve this. But I am sort of looking forward to how Joyce explains the part where Dorothy was so pent up she nearly got herself arrested out of frustration

My favorite pants had an Incident in April (sue me for not wearing 100% cotton at a fire pit), so I repaired them last month. With, I think, an appropriate design. #visiblemending #embroidery

Star Trek Voyager scene. We're outdoors on a brick street in a future version of San Francisco. Civilians and starfleet officers are walking to and fro past a tram/subway type station with a sign that reads, "Mission District Line, Express Stop, Trans Francisco."

Star Trek The Next Generation scene, but with Hallmark channel vibes. We're "on the D" and "in the conference room" and Riker is shown sitting at the table, hands clasped, looking up with a muted smile. To his left, also sitting and w/ arms pleasantly on the table, is a smiling and happy looking young man. He's maybe 13 or 14 years old, and wearing the same red uniform and comm badge as Riker. Caption is centered over the little guy, and reads, "He's my number-one dad."

Plato's Cave allegory, illustrated. the shadows on the cave wall are captioned "increasingly insane and extreme positions", the prisoners labeled "internet users", the figures holding the shadow's shapes labeled "algorithms", the fire labeled "random internet users expressing their idiosyncratic beliefs". the space above the cave is labeled "literally just outside" and the philosopher freed from the chains of the physical world labeled "guy who logs off"

Solitaire is the most common example! Though that and many others are pure card games. Some are designed specifically for solo play (Food Chain Island is a cute one), and some multiplayer games come with a solo mode as a bonus. :)

All shot using figures and miniatures and a bit of digital rain.

Hey, quick question: Has anyone ever done laundry and NOT immediately discovered something you definitely should have thrown in that load of laundry that's now well underway/complete?

If so, what's that like?
