I seem to be turning hipster in my 40s

I went linux. I'm going back to indie music and buying (buying!) whole albums if and only if I can pay money to the artist. Subscriptions can get fucked. I'm already calling myself an "analog millennial" unironically in real life conversations. I'm about to bring my fedora out of the closet. I'm considering dropping the smartphone because I Do Not Want the AI in it!

If I start drinking pabst please send help.

actual conversation here this evening

her [while reading]: "Here's a great word, but I wouldn't wanna read it more than once in the same book -- 'subsume'."

me: "Yeah, if you read that more than once in the same book, you're probably reading an eighteenth-century philosopher, and that's a fate I wouldn't wish on anyone."

Still got Katamari on my mind and I had some new cute font to try out!

My Teepublic Store

*thinks of a horrifically depressing theory*

My naive mind: Yeah, well if it ends up happening, at least I can console myself with the satisfaction of being right. 😌

Be my friends! I won't speak to you for three months and then vomit in our chat all the memes I've been saving to my phone during that time within five minutes.

On this Valentine’s Day please don’t forget about the Palestinian people. Candy is being bought in droves while innocent people are starving. While people are planning romantic dinners for their lovers, Palestinian people are losing their lovers to bombs and snipers. There is no rest for the Palestinian people today. Don’t let them mask what’s really happening behind pink ribbon. Fight for love, find empowerment in your love for others. We will not stop fighting, not for a single day. Palestine will be free.

stayed gone but you're the sinners watching/listening

Mages ride sidesaddle.

No I will not elaborate. At least, not yet.

Only recently have I realized how many things there are in my life where "I don't feel like it" is all the reason I need to not do them.

Got my Jirachi pose set using a fat kitten for the body and bald eagle wings for its back flaps 👍🏻

guys unfortunately ace trappola has to die I have to kill him

why do all the words sound heavier in my native language?

christ sometimes I just wanna. steal a time machine & go back & sit down next to my 9-year-old self and just like. let them pull out their pokemon card binder & gush about their holographic gyarados or whatever. I'd just smile & ask questions about motherfukcing bulbasaur & tell my kid self that I thought they were a neat person, & someday they'd find other people who thought so too.

like i'm a grown adult who honestly finds most kids stuff boring, but. damn if i could go back & hang out with my baby self & listen to them ramble...just so they knew someone was listening. i would in a heartbeat. thinking about u kid
