I work part time as a back room guy at Target and I arrive at work an hour before work - there's parents already forming a line out the door for these damn things and I'm struggling to understand the appeal of the miracle of plastic egg hatching - particularly the fact it seems the actual 'hatching' is a one-way deal since these online reviews show the egg does irreparably shatter even though the top and bottom halves are hard plastic. Like, once the bird thing grows to 'maturity' or

Sometimes, I get so bored that I drink. I'm saving the last of the whiskey for my love. I tried three seconds of tequila and it was pretty good. It didn't have the same effect as whiskey so I made myself a cosmopolitan. It tasted delicious! It still didn't give me the desired effect so I gave myself two seconds of tequila. That shit tastes so much better than whiskey. The only problem was that my insides burned when I sneezed. Here's the recipe for the

Alright, let's all take a deep breath, take a moment to relax...

In...

And out.

There, that's much better, isn't it?

You're probably wondering why I told you to take a breath. Or you probably skimmed up to this point. Whatever.

Let's just get this out there; off my chest, and on the table.

Fuck horses.

Well, this was supposed to have come out much sooner, but was held back for a number of reasons. One being, of course, that the mail service decided to be late in delivering the thing to begin with -- it only got here just this past Monday. And then there was the time spent actually playing it, the time spent on the side playing Atari, Game Boy, etc... But hey, at least I got around to it eventually, right?

An incomplete list of people I met:

Bad Horse (he gave me a hat. And many people hats. The Evil League of Evil got a few glances, but while the initial reaction was muted, we made quite the collective impression)
Bradel
Admiral Biscuit
Pav Fiera
Not_a_hat (properly this time)
Cerulean Voice
Corejo
MaskedFerret (she said I’m not as scary as she thought)
Trick Question
Pascoite

I spent the last 12 hours assembling and struggling with my new computer, discovering the joys of everything from poorly applied thermal paste to improperly connected memory to not-entirely-plugged-in SATA drives.

But at last, I finally live in the world of the SSD, with 32 gigabytes of RAM.

Right now, my computer is installing Windows 10 (huzzah for free OS upgrades), and while it still has my old video card in it (and likely will for several months), it is otherwise up and running.

For.. a slightly odd commission.

As a gift for a friend (Who i love to tease) I'm gonna get him a custom body pillow. But the picture I want is an anime style young Stalin. It's a slightly complicated story.

Anyone know folks who can do a convincing anime style?

Heya readers! Rather than let things build up until I’m in a mad-dash to get my back-pack of Rick and Morty reference together, Yeah, I wrote that line over a month ago and didn’t get back to finishing this until now. So... oops. I’ve decided to go ahead and get my Patreon reward for nuclearcore done!

And I don't regret it now.

I'm neutral on the original version of the song, but holy cow I'll defend the remix of this song in public.

I should try to capture that songfeel in horse words, but I'm not totally sure on where to begin.

Happy Holidays, folks. Here's to writing things worth reading.

Wow in the past year I went from feeling angsty to feeling so mushy that I can't stop grinning like an idiot and my heart swells up. Now those feelings are amplified. I guess it's the good version of PMS? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In the past, I've lost all my impulse control right before my period, and I've drowned in my own tears. Now I want to cuddle, look at the sky, go on a picnic, listen to each other's heart beats, and stare into some lovely eyes. Dammit I'm so cheesy what kind of cheese

Well, sort of. The fridge broke so I had to clean it out. Other than that, today's been pretty chill. This guy from Jesus camp wanted to hang out today, but I couldn't go because my brother was moving. The good news is that my friend is coming over Friday night! So far, the hooch has been looking pretty good. The balloon inflated throughout the day yesterday, and you could hear the bubbles if you listened carefully. Today, it stayed the same size. It will be ready

YO!

IT BE ME AND MONO! DOING A PANEL!

If you all didn't catch it - here it is! If you did, and want to catch it again - here it is!

This was a blast (of stress, but, also, like a normal idiomatic blast as well), to do, people really seemed to have liked it, so come on down and check it out!

Someone had to do it, so it might as well be me.

Yes, that's right, I made a Rarity x Coloratura group. Or I suppose, a Rarity + Coloratura group; it is intended to encompass not only shipfics, but also stories about them as friends or working together.

Why?

You might notice this wasn't published Wednesday. That's because that's when I got my university results, and I've had to spend the last three days dealing with the implications of them. I've finally sat down to write this.

So, this year I was pursuing my second degree in journalism because, you know, I need a stable adult job and it's writing and I get paid minimum wage for being a student in Australia. All good things.
