I think that shit-ass smiley-face scale at the doctor sucks because there's no reference. This is much better for chronic pain people. I'm at like 3-4 every day, and migraine will get me up to 8 or 9 sometimes. When my gall bladder was acting up it was a solid 10, but I pushed through because poor.
Wrote a big ol' review of the Florence gig on the Patreon. One dollar. I even drew a stage plot. Why. WHY.
See, and this is what I thought no of when people mention Trump, maps, and Sharpies. Him being a complete fucking moron that doesn't know shit about shit.
I'm not saying this is GOOD--he's a piece of shit and this is the stupidest, flimsiest war possibly of my lifetime (Iraq 1 was pretty stupid)--but let's put some perspective on this. Always make sure you have good axes labels. The volatility is the worst part, I think. As with all things Trump.
Hey you should go buy my book. Cyberpunkish trans poetry. People like it. Good chance if you follow me you'll like it. Many different stores. books2read.com/thefailureexperiment Buy. Read. Love. Eat book. Repeat.
Began transitioning at 37. Starting year 8 this summer. Color source of my PFP. Quote with a selfie and tell us when you began transitioning. #Its_Never_Too_Late
Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and the band or artist. Yup. I was 15, and it kicked off a decade of concert attendance, back when they were affordable. My tastes changed over the years, but Garth's first six, maybe seven, records are still mostly great.
Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden or Alice In Chains. Pretty sure this was the same thing I posted early on in my bsky days.
If you see this post your favorite Star Wars character HK-47 walked so IG-11 could walk even slower through a river of liquid hot magma.
If you see this post a comics cover you love. Still a basic girlie here. An incredible story of a woman sent to the very edge of madness by the selfish interests and manipulation of mediocre men, and then pushed right over. And the best cover from the entire run of the title. John Byrne is so good.
Happy birthday me here's a birthday #poem I wrote a few years ago that ended up changing the way I write forever.
Show me a picture on your phone which has your energy but isn't a selfie.
