Me last week: I'm cooking a lot more, I probably could use a good tupperware set that's reusable so I'm not just always wrapping stuff in foil.

Me this week when I realize I need to wash everything in the new tupperware set before I can use it: Actually, fuck this.

I got this t-shirt hoodie thing over the summer and it's one of the most comfortable shirts I own. But I don't really use the hood part because it looks like this

SKREEEEEE?

I only got a few hours of sleep because I was in so much pain last night and now I'm cranky and snapping at everyone at work, the opposite of the attitude I usually like to have.

I'll say this as someone who enjoys playing around with DALL-E and Midjourney as much as the next person: These videos people are making where it's the lyrics of a song run through an AI image generator ... I can't imagine anyone having any interest in them.

The International Atomic Energy Commission issued an apology today. Upon further study, the cause of nuclear fission isn't actually the collision of unstable atoms, but just the work of malevolent fairies. And the reason why it happens more with certain materials, such as uranium or plutonium, is just the fairies like those more. It's like candy to them.

I don't like Avenue Q. And I love musicals and muppets so that's saying something.

I'm not sure how many chapters there are in this game, but according to the steam achievement, only 42% of people who buy FF13 get to Chapter 5.

Sheaf is technically a dragonborn but I've always had it that he looks more lizard-like anyway.

The plan is if I spraypaint that mask completely white and then do some detail work on the eyes, it will look sort of like Sheaf.

And if that doesn't work out, what is life but a series of Halloween costumes that you conceptualized but failed to deliver.

The existing X-Men movies leaned too much into action and the special effects of the super powers. There needs to be more on how fucked up it is to run a boarding school and then recruit from it for a paramilitary task force.

There's a reason most of the adult X-men hate Professor Xavier in the comics.

I was just thinking what my ideal X-Men TV or film would look like and then realized I basically had just recreated Umbrella Academy.

If you have a historical or linguistic critique of this statement, please note the following disclaimer: You're probably right, I'm not very smart.

I think it says a lot about our species' collective trauma that "trial by fire" is still an idiom in our language despite it being a practice from two millennia back.

Wait. There's still a $2 "convenience charge" every time you book tickets. And there's no way to get around it because you can only book season pass tickets online. They sure put that scam in the fine print.

There actually are a lot of movies out right now I want to see: Amsterdam, See How They Run, Bros, Confess Fletch. The season pass would pay for itself if I went to see all four in the same month, I just know I'm so busy this month there's no way I'll get to see all of them in theaters. I think I'm already too late for Confess Fletch.
