Tom S. Tea is for Tentacles

He sure is!

That looks amazing, and now I know what I'm making for breakfast tomorrow

I interviewed for a CS job there in 2020, when I was looking for at least $20/hour. They said their 2nd shift roles would only pay $15/hour, and when I said that wouldn't work for me the recruiter asked if I would consider it because of the benefits.

I knew my worth, so I said I wouldn't.

oh nooooooo!

"Out damned spot, out I say! Yet who would have thought the old car to have so much petrol in him?!"

This morning while I was making breakfast, the Goblin jumpscared me by appearing in the doorway and saying "Hi"

After I yelped, I proceeded to laugh my ass off

"I am so here for Twitch! The Musical"
#NCT that also counts as a #MNFringe show idea. Y'all can have that one for free

Oh hey, I was in a horror play this past October based partly on shows like Psalty

Anytime! The first time I encountered that card, I thought "this is giving off major monster-fuckery vibes" and I'm pleased to see I was correct 😂

I am so glad I backed this Kickstarter, the deck (and this card) are incredible!

I've never been more proud to live in Minneapolis (never mind that I grew up in Saint Paul...)
