@Euan Holy quack I did not remember him having scales. Anubis was my goat or I guess dog but I loved this character for the ranger suit design.

I hate I cannot get the convo with my dad ranting anti-trans stuff about how I need to accept myself quoting the song from Lady Gaga title 'born this way' to me. I asked him if he understood the lyrics and he asked if I did. For a straight man he sure did suck Elon off a lot when I was growing up, so I grew up learning all I could about design and tech in hopes I could get some of that love he had for the billionaire. Thanks for the STEM push dad, and playing that song all night drunk off your ass at max volume. I loved it, all the shit you loved was queer coded as fuck you homophobic moron, and yes I understood it all.

@JoscelynTransient @dan Well probably. That and the obvious that he is an old man with health issues, a massive ego in which he thinks he can beat Olympic women athletes at their sports, and he probably hasn't had a real fight other than semi-sedated non adults with the Epstein stuff. Anyhow good hypothetical pol that was amusing to see.

@dan I wonder if the buses are in the room with you right now. Not acknowledging the buses has lead to a 100% mortality rate eventually for all people.

@dan You live, you learn. Still either method will most likely lead to a solution to your networking problem depending on your efficiency variable for time.

@DotMaetrix to be out do we have to actually state it? Feel like the looks give it away but still got grandad calling me a handsome young man and at this point I kind of just worried for him and not sure because not like I am exactly wearing hoodies anymore. It has been six years. His gf knows, the waiters/waitresses know, every one seems to know.

Personal rant about boomer father

The delusion of my family when it comes to the american economy is one of the most devastating things to my psyche for unrealistic parental standards. I cannot compete with the payroll of my brother to appease my constantly deeply disappointing old man when the competition is artificial whenever you control his wage directly while I am out here experiencing the free market wage of not being favored to inherit a multimillion yearly business cause I pulled the uno reverse card on my gender. Sorry dad not a millionaire yet from doing my own thing, and living outside of your range of control, but zero regrets because experiencing aspects of freedom is worth more than the money you tried to control me through.

I hate the sun, I hate the sun, I hate the sun, I hate the sun. This is a joke, but we should blow up the sun. Imagine the amount of skin cancer we could solve.
