There are a few individual days I look forward to every year. One, the Fetch-A-Cure auction, is Friday. The other is our annual trip to Carter Mountain to pick apples, drink cider, and take in gorgeous views with the people I love.

Is it too early in the season to just give up on my fantasy hockey team? I’m not so sure.

Yes, executive dysfunction IS a symptom of depression, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s a correlation between my inability to get my meds refilled and my difficulty summarizing these 87 pages of medical records!

“How did you get into tabletop role-playing games?”
My hometown was not yet most exciting, and my best friend and I were literally looking for something to “get into.” Our tiny local bookstore had a couple of gaming books; the clerk suggested I order the Red Box. The rest is 37 years of history.

“How did get into tabletop role-playing games?”
In a high school study hall as a freshman a junior looked at me reading and asked, “so you game?”
“Huh?”
“Wait you are reading a TSR novel and you don’t game???”

My parents read a newspaper article about LARPing and said it sounded up my alley. I agreed, but it sounded like I was a little too young to join any area LARPs, so I asked for Vampire: The Masquerade for my upcoming birthday.

32 years after its original release, I was able to see In the Mouth of Madness in a theater. This is my all-time favorite horror film, and when I saw it on the list of Regal’s 31 Screams on Screen I knew I had to be there. A big thanks to @s0n0fz3us.bsky.social for coming with.

Another colleague has taken their life, leaving a suicide note on Facebook. We worked together on overnight emergency. We recently marked the 8 year anniversary of another colleague’s passing, in circumstances so similar that it’s like Déjà vu. Another former ER friend left us two years ago.

What the fuck, man, I had like 256 plums in that icebox. Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?

At a Walmart in Florida, and in the toy section they had the most incredibly realistic plush loaf of French bread. So realistic that I just had to pick it up and squeeze it.
It was an actual loaf of French bread that someone abandoned among the plushies.

So exciting to eat dinner at a place where the TVs are airing Newsmax. If I want to watch Trumpaganda I can just crawl into a warm bath with a sharp razor and a plugged in toaster.

There are essentially endless reasons to hate Trump that are more important than the American 250 disaster. But I was born during the American Bicentennial celebration. It would have been really cool to be able to experience something amazing for 250. But like everything, he turned it to shit.

Octopus can change color using thousands of specialized pigment cells in their skin called chromatophores.
By expanding and contracting these cells, they can change colors and skin textures in a fraction of a second. Some species are simply famous for their extreme abilities.

I’ve gotten pretty bad about reading, and I’m really slow to finish books these days. That said, I just finished Black River Orchard by @chuckwendig.bsky.social, the second of his books that I have read (the first was Wanderers), and I will be picking up more of his books soon. Great read.

The whole reason Predator works is that it takes a team of crack badass commandos from an 80s action movie, has them act out an 80s action movie for the 30 minutes, and then the Predator shows up and all of a sudden it's a slasher movie, but the commandos DON'T KNOW THAT.

I haven’t seen Predator but from everything I’ve read my understanding is that the soldiers are structurally teenage girls in a slasher pic
