Gonna start using “vegetate” now whenever I want express desire for total nothingness.
Goblin mode, 1930s style
"Mmm can't make it tonight, I have plans."
The plans:
See, things didn't start with Reddit or even with Usenet. This kind of stuff has always been with us, it just gets easier to see as tech progresses.
Samesies. Gonna pull a submarine until January, nothing but art and zaza.
Edit: included "games" under "art":))
But is it going to be quite alright and proper? 🧐
Until M.K. arrives
In terms of "content," most certainly! Both aspects!:))
In terms of activity, I've been looking forward to some alone time for a couple of years now, so it's perfection incarnate.
If this was a reference, I missed it completely!=))
hell yea
making games or playing games?
Playing vidya, continuing to write my cyberpunk-y D&D campaign/epic (which will most likely devolve into something completely different 30 minutes into actually playing it, but it is what it is!:)) )
That, and I REALLY need to practice playing the bass, get back in the groove.
JB is 100% inviting every sex worker and drug dealer they know
I envy all of them
The more things change, they don't change much
I’ll be whoopee. My partner and I have been very lax on that (depression?) but we plan to get all fucked up on drugs and get nasty. Stupid holidays.
stay safe and fuck mcnasty style!
FDR is in office. The Social Security Act is signed
Worst of the Dust Bowl heat wave. 109℉ in Chicago
The Labor Day hurricane, a category 5, hits the Florida Keys
The Helena earthquake hits at 6.5 in Montana.
Rough year. No wonder everyone sounds like the COVID-19 lockdown.
99° F (37° C) in Chicago last summer was a catastrophe. And there was even air conditioning which took the edge off after trudging through sidewalks that had begun to stick to my shoes. I cannot even imagine a 1930s 109° F (43° C).
Catch up on Parchesi? Like he's misses some big developments on it?
Probably some big changes in the meta that semester.
