Yes, hello, is that God? Yeah, hi. I have a complaint. You gave me this brain that’s designed for finding berries and avoiding lions and now people are β€˜just circling back’ to see if we can β€˜move the needle’ on β€˜key initiatives’? NONE of those things are berries.

Oh, god, I forgot that an earlier statewide election means I get subjected to campaign ads in fucking MARCH. It was nice having 4 months free of them, I guess.

Even though most of them I agree with, they still make me twitchy.

I might just sleep on the couch, with the cats.

Weird/bad insomnia. I can think of a dozen reasons why I have it, but none of them ring fully true as the cause.

I impulse bought Pokemon Pokopia, and instead of starting it, I wound up playing Slay the Spire until my Switch died.

Brain. Brain, why.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

*pokes SCOVA with a stick*

Are we voting starting on Friday or not, folks? Resolve the district court split, please. You can’t just sit still and pretend not to exist. Tonight would be a great night to drop something and run, just saying.

Warner and Kaine really are amazing disappointments. Federal government throws the entire Virginia economy into disarray, and they just keep lining up to vote to confirm dudes anyway

Thankfully, Wong Updates is a parody account that broke containment. Only half of this is true. Levi isn’t involved at all in the BS/Majors project πŸ™ƒ

I’m like 90% certain Spanberger was speaking from where we had Law Prom every year. My brain hurts.

It was weird walking Colonial last year, something I used to do basically every week for 3 years (to play Pokemon Go). I appreciate why Williamsburg was picked.

Good speech, honestly.

Spanberger is evolving to meet the moment. She realizes where people are and moving there instead of playing milquetoast center.

You can’t make me listen that man for two hours. Fuck you. Fucking fuck you. And I know it’s done so people get exhausted by the sheer amount of shit he says. Still. Fuck you.

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?
