Yeah that's fanart not actual art.

Ironbite-like any company would pay for their mascot to be a super sexy version of itself.
I did not mean to imply that the fanart was by the company. The Twitter comments are from them but if any of the memes were from the company it probably does not include stuff like the Shadbase artwork...
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Ooh, got a new phone: an LG Stylo 3.  It is, thus far, quite good.  Snappy, responsive, and quite quick.  Fucker apparently has an 8-core CPU, as well.  Oh, and she's got a stylus!

Today's experiment in cooking: shrimp linguine in a white wine, rosemary sauce.

Yum
Does anyone take Donald Trump seriously, anymore?

Today's experiment in kidnapping Queen will involve a very large tube.

Hand grinder for coffee... I'm just a French press and kettle away from being a complete coffee snob.  Makes some damned fine coffee, though.

I'm already there. Got the whole set-up: a whistling kettle, whole coffee beans, in an airtight mason jar, a coffee grinder, and a French press. The coffee is simply amazing.

You can also buy flavor extracts in most spice sections to spruce the coffee up. I usually add about 1/8 a teaspoon of cherry, raspberry, or peppermint extract to my coffee.

And the whole set-up costs like $70 USD. It is cheaper than a keurig, easier to clean, and the coffee quality is roughly the same. Not to mention french presses don't have the wasteful k-cups of a keurig. Seriously, take the leap, you'll thank me later.

I plan to once I get a house.  Space is currently at somewhat of a premium; I barely have any food prep space as it is.

Macron seems to be winning the elections in France. Yay!

Finally tried a half shot or so of the Appleton Estate rum I got and I gotta say that, for non-spiced rum, it is both very smooth and eminently agreeable.  Not quite as pleasant as Kraken, but I can definitely see why its popular amongst rum lovers.

Finally got our passport situation all wrapped up. The breakdowns continue but recoveries are much quicker these last few days. All in all it`s fuckin miracle how I`m still standing and coordinating stuff, considering that according to our shrink`s diagnosis I`m suffering from heavy paranoia and anxiety which by all her accounts should have me constantly paralysed with fear and trying to kill myself. Apparently I never showed the outward symptoms due to some extreme mental strengh, which I believe to be a very nice thing to know about yourself even if amidst quite literal organic paranoia and fear. Now it`s just the question of getting the right pills on the right dosage and soon I might have a night without constant nightmares. For the first time in my life, too 8)
Now with 15% more pills!

I did a really good, long workout at the gym today - eight by eight sets, with 30 body weight squats after each exercise. So I did 240 body weight squats total today, along with my usual ab workout.

My legs feel floppy and exhausted, but I have never felt so satisfied.

Cutest spambot ever... It was advertising FB page with an alarm that sends a signal to "everyone" every 15 minutes until you turn it off. ...Now that I think about it, it didn't mention anything about the ability to turn it off. So maybe it would just be a new FB alarm every 15 minutes until they delete their account.

I didn't click the link so I guess we'll never know. But I do think it is cute that someone thought that people would be lured in to whatever attack site they have by promise to be annoying to everyone of their FB friends.

So, I haven't been on in ages, so I'll update you on a certain major event in my life.

I got into grad school.

Specifically, I will be matriculating this fall in the School of International Affairs at PENN FUCKING STATE.

I just discovered that Mythbuster's Adam Savage and parliamentary candidate Lord Buckethead converse on Twitter and suddenly, despite the chaos, everything seems right with world.
