I'm at 4662 Toots.

Getting close to the big 5K.

But the Lyrics. Goodness the Lyrics.

I can't help but thinking about the people in my life who've passed on.

Or, perhaps more depressingly, the people who are likely to pass on.

"You can't brace yourself when the time comes. You just have to roll with the blast."

"And then came to your bedside. And as it turns out, I'm not ready. And as though you were speaking through a thick haze, you said hello to me. We all stood there around you, happy to hear you speak. The last of something bright burning, still burning, beyond the cancer and the chemotherapy."

"And you were a presence full of light upon this Earth. And I am a witness to your life and to it's worth. It's three days later when I get the call and there's nobody around to break my fall."

An old Game Grumps print I made in 2017, with a few updates I made this year. Had the chance to give this to Arin and Dan at the live show in Toronto!

I'm listening to another one from The Life of The World to Come.

The whole album drips with empathy. Each song has a title like the one I posted- it has to do with a single line in the bible or Torah and the song is related.

However, it isn't worship music or Christian rock or the like. It is a different kind of personal.

The name of the album itself is from the Nicene Creed.

The song I'm listening to on repeat right now is quite sad.

Matthew 25:21

It's about the loss of a loved one. It's emotive and powerful and lyrically amazing.

I really, really recommend this album.

inventor of pliers: these sky demons will not cooperate and open my hazelnuts for me so i have ingeniously decided to put handles on a metal beak.

Oh, good lord. Bibi wants to TELEVISE his fucking hearing. What a knob.

Bibi, bubbalah- you don't get to dictate how the fucking courts work. They work the same for you as they do every other citizen of Israel.

I know you want to change that, but for now that isn't the case.

Face the music with courage and stop acting like a coward.

George Carlin: language is contextual, the meaning and intent behind your words is much more important than the words themselves. and I'm gonna drop a buncha words which are, in different context, pretty bad, but meaningless when said in a list like this, just to prove that point.

conservatives: haha he said bad word, SJWs wouldn't like that!
