I don't like how my culture does apologies and forgiveness.

Time passing doesn't make up for harm.

Hollow words, without action to prevent recurrence, don’t demonstrate care.

We just pretend the bad thing didn't happen? And that it won't happen again?

Finally made my first real build in Resonite. The creator jam theme was to make an environment and some type of game in three hours with a a team.

I didn't think I had any real skills in Resonite, but when I answered yes to "Can you pick up a rock?" I got put on our environmental team.

And I managed to build a volcano with dock! Yeah, they were pre-existing assets, but pushing around pre-existing assets was how I built most of my stuff in Second Life.

I'd only ever taken one other picture with the Creator Jam folks before, but I feel I earned my place in today's pic. Can you guess which one's me? Here's a hint: I'm one of the few not in fur....

FINALLY mostly caught up with all the stuff that got thrown out of whack on Wednesday when I took most of the evening off. One thing I need to take care of, but at the same time, I can do that over today and tomorrow and it won't take long.

There is enough sprironolactone in this vial to destroy the testosterone levels of an entire major city.

Be glad my demands are light for if they're not met by midnight....

There are some conversations I'm just too old for, and "social spending doesn't solve problems" is one of them. I've literally watched education, health care, housing, local news, and public transit be systemically defunded, dismantled, and neglected for most of my almost 47 years of life. *My* classrooms ballooned from 20 kids to 30, *my* band class, french immersion, enrichment programs were disrupted by cost-cutting measures, *my* tuition was 4x the tuition of students just 5 years older than me, lower-middle class kids of *my* generation and later are the ones working two or three precarious jobs (if we aren't already disabled by toxic workplaces) for half as much on a slow-cooking planet, watching the price of even the dilapidated shacks always shift just out of our reach while billionaires take pleasure cruises to outer space.

I am NOT a person to take "social spending doesn't do anything" when I saw just how much social cost-cutting fucking destroyed dreams for two-going-on-three generations, lol.

I've had a lot on plate these last few days, and it's pushed back a lot of the work I need to get done during the day...but the fun side effect is I'm writing at night because stuff is being pushed back.

And I'm quickly learning, I'm a much better writer late at night.

Also: Covid shotted.

Sunday school teacher: for the last time, Jesus ascended to heaven, he DID NOT GET ISEKAIED, and Judas was not "basically a tsundere elf girl"!

Me: but what about cru-

Teacher: And stop calling it crucifix-kun!

"When I eet beenz...I sit in mah own little cloud. NOBODY COMES TO VISIT ME....IN MAH LITTLE CLOUD."

Indian Watermelon Juice! Usually I like to drink this when it's hot, but hot just isn't happening this month....

You know, I focused so much on the mystery of Ruby and Susan Twist in Dr Who that I didn't even notice the TARDIS had been groaning and grumbling since the latest Tennant and Tate episodes.

I just thought she was being upset.

I've been without sodas for a few days now, mainly because it's hard to get my CO2 Cartridges replaced, and I ran out of canned soda a few days ago.

I'm remember one of the reasons I drink a lot of soda and lemon tea: If I don't food gives me a stomachache. Like any food. I'm guessing there's something about the extra acid in soda and lemon tea that helps with that.

This post brought to you by a breakfast stoamch ache.

@internet_ryan - Cause last time I made waffles, between the batter and the topping, I realized I ate a whole stick of butter. :)

Today I learned that a waffle with no butter topping is like a day without sunshine.

Considering a birthday trip to Canada again. Really don't have the money for it and it would come directly out of my savings instead of the severeance which is gone.

But I really REALLY feel I need to do something. I'm going stir crazy stuck at home.
