Quick Thoughts

09/25 Fragrance commercials are something else. I admit the difficulty of advertising a sense you can't invoke, but they are just so extra. Like, ohhh, he's playing an electric guitar ohhhhh there are wolves ohhhhhhh he walking toward the camera. SMELL.

09/13 All these horror movie characters that don't wear bras... -rolleyes-

09/11 I wonder if Old Spice isn't specifically responsible for the bizarre silliness so prevalent in advertising for men's hygienic products.

07/29 A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dorks Gonna Dork

07/23 I like to put my dealt-with mail in the same bag I empty the litter box into. Just to give anyone looking through my trash for personal information a little game to play. Keep things fresh, you know?

07/22 42 days until I turn 42!

07/01 PENGIDDLER

06/22 But consider: Arkham Asylum, only instead of a bunch of boss fights, you have to find every villain and fuck them.

06/17 Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice. And some say at the feet of vindictive elephants.

06/07 I love it when Sofia is not about being a deputy, but all about being a partner.

06/04 Oh, hey, there! Welcome back, abdominal pain!

06/02 But what about when a cat curls its tongue around its chin and licks its own neck???

05/27 Stringing candies on elastic to be worn around the wrist or neck is adding the insult of proscribing jewelry that will last more than 0.5 seconds to the injury of eating so much damn sugar when you're already fat.

05/17 If you get enough boops as a baby and a child, will your nose change shape forever?

05/08 John Wayne's roles were all so fucking extra.

05/05 Geez, Obi-Wan and Ventress. Light the series on fire, why don't you, and get it over with.

04/05 If I didn't know they'd gone on to fix it, I would never have forgiven them for the ending of The Wrath of Khan.

03/22 Loving RDR2, but I can't help thinking how much cooler Arthur would be if he were a buff lesbian.

03/18 Another day, another racist Star Trek episode.

03/13 The real title is Star Trek: What The Fuck Are You Wearing?

03/12 Horror movie characters be like, "What is going on? The explanation must lie in the scariest place I can find. No, this place isn't quite bad enough; better keep looking."

03/06 "A beaker full of death."

03/05 Nothing makes me giggle quite so much as the costumed dog in The Enemy Within.

02/21 Another reason Leonard Nimoy was Best Vulcan: his grin looked hella weird.

02/16 The Exorcist: far more bodily fluids than one would expect in such a religious movie.

01/5 New visual art!

12/31 Happy New Year!

12/2 It's only just occurred to me how odd it is that Hermione didn't think to bring some prepackaged food with them. I mean, she knows Gamp's Law better than any of them.

11/22 I'd really like to try out Poser, but the install download keeps failing mou.

11/17 "Oh, I need a place to store my loose dried bean collection! Can you tell me how many quarts that storage container holds?" Said nobody ever.

9/27 Why fantasy gotta be so white

9/3 Everyone on TV has such incredibly strong flashlights. I sure would have appreciated that when I was looking for house numbers in the dark last year.

9/2 Happy Birthday to me!!

8/30 It makes me so happy to hear my mom cheering for sports upstairs.

8/9 Yesterday I discovered a new nickname for my dog: Beeky Beep. So cute I can't even.

7/26 Only four chemo treatments left!!

7/20 Only five chemo treatments left!!

7/6 You get to Zoraburg and Sidon's like, COME MEET MY FATHER and runs off, and you're like, I JUST RAN TEN MILES FULL OF MONSTERS CAN YOU WAIT LIKE TEN SECONDS.

6/25 After decades of saying I'd never do it, I'm now taking visual art commissions. Weird!

6/3 Replaying Breath of the Wild, and I'd entirely forgotten about that bird that does Mario's "Hoo-hoo!" sound. Very distracting XD

5/26 It feels like an insult to my careful island arrangement to pick up a lost item from a spot my villagers literally never visit.

5/25 Writing has been very slow lately, for obvious reasons, but drawing I have been able to manage. Look at Heeky!

5/23 Chemo remains a nightmare, but I did manage to draw a badger.

5/9 Behold the hummingbird

5/4 Chemotherapy kicked my ass last week, but I suspect this and next week will be better!

3/26 Almost April already?? Time flies when you're having cancer!

3/16 Safely surgerized and recovering well so far.

3/12 Cross your fingers for me, darlings!

3/3 Oops, here comes another Saitou & Sano idea...

2/1 Does anyone else harvest nirnroot just to get it to shut the hell up?

1/29 And having roughly defeated the kiss, I've reached linear completion on my first-ever STTOS fic!

1/29 And having roughly defeated the kiss, I've reached linear completion on my first-ever STTOS fic!

1/29 Ugh, kiss description. (Can I start two consecutive Quick Thoughts with "Ugh?")

1/24 Ugh, I need, like, three colors I don't have to finish this picture. This picture of a person that is essentially monotone.

1/18 It occurred to me yesterday that Trowa has a pixie cut.

1/16 Just got a spam email promising me pictures of my wife (naked), and realized too late that I should have looked at it, since it's obviously prophetic and I'd like to have some clue as to what type of woman I'm going to marry.

1/13 Finding a position where the pain is not so bad is like having a cat on your lap: you're afraid to move in the slightest lest it gets up and leaves.

1/12 When Chuck Norris makes an ACNH island, the native flower is lily of the valley.

1/5 I saw a headline today that said, "If I were GM of the Broncos..." And I immediately pictured the entire team clustered around a table rolling for initiative.

1/1 Time to start my six-months' term of writing the year incorrectly!

12/26 Oh, hello, Valentine's Day. Huh. Christmas must be over.

12/21 A new picture that I drawed!

12/19 For the second time in my life, someone just asked me for my phone number (like, for dating purposes).

12/14 Working on site stuff for most of the day, putting all these old RK stories into the newest format, I've been hit by the first spontaneous Saitou & Sano idea I've had in... I don't know how long. Years, I think.

12/9 I think what he saw in the Pit was just 2020.

12/7 It's important to remember during this festive season that if someone is drunk, they cannot consent to being chained up and walled into a niche in your family catacombs.

12/1 Apartment/condo/townhouse complexes are barely designed with the convenience of their tenants in mind. They are absolutely not designed with the convenience of visitors (including delivery people) in mind.

11/26 Every time I do something in just graphite, I remember how many points I've put into my graphite skill.

11/24 One by one, each of my lazy villagers has realized that they too need to contribute to the Turkey Day meal; it's been amusing to watch the wave of knowledge sweep across the island.

11/18 It occurs to me that I don't think I've ever met anyone that didn't like The Devil Went Down to Georgia.

10/31 Happy Halloween!! For your treat this year, you get a site full of broken links!

10/15 Bear with me while I try to get the site running properly again at its new host!

9/2 Happy birthday to me!!!!

Trail of Light

Feb 19, 2022 | , ,

Between chapters 2 and 3 of Desert Flowers and Cactus Spines by Gabrielle Graham: When U.S. Marshal Adinal Webster and his companion Zalel Loratoris set out from Armadillo to track down Benjamin “Ben the Blade” Light, they know it won’t be a standard chase. They also can’t know what the spiritual consequences may be of following Light into the darkness.

Hey, it’s me, Chou, your favoritest, sexiest, pithiest sword-collecting hot guy. Let me tell you this story about two other hot guys I work for/with, and how they get me all twisted up. In a good way. Mostly. Not enough to make me cry at all, anyway. And I promise there’s only a few anachronisms.

Geez, what Medical Update am I even on? Seven?

Sep 24, 2021 |

So this first new drug. I believe I mentioned before that Dr. M was planning to put me on this drug after chemo in any case, and I'm unsure whether that's comforting or not XD But I've been taking it since the evening of my latest surgery (did I mention I had another...
