Kind of a shitty 48 hours here- Wednesday night I went in to feed Rosie, and as I was entering Maxwell shot through my legs like a bullet and attacked her. She’s fast as fuck and oddly enough has catlike reflexes and was never touched by him, but when I went to grab Maxwell the fucker bit the palm of my hand so hard it went to the bone. I let it bleed out then cleaned it under cold water, iced it a bit, and went to bed. Yesterday I could barely use my hand, but I just iced it and dealt with the pain, hoping I would not need to go to the doctor. Woke up this morning and it hurt like hell and was swollen, so I went in and got a prophylactic antibiotic.
Normally my standard practice is to let something bleed out, clean it, then just let my body do it’s thing, but I keep a close eye for any redness, excessive swelling, or heat and an itchy sensation, because those to me are the earlier indicators of an infection that come before the obvious stuff like a fever or streaking. Regardless, it was really swollen and painful without all those things, so I went in. They put me on augmentin and I swear to god in the eight hours since I took it, it has gotten less swollen. So not a prophylactic antibiotic at all. I did ice it and do my best to keep it elevated all day, so that had to help. And I took an edible about an hour ago and let me tell you, I feel no pain right now although I am craving ice cream.
The Republicans are so maddening, and what irritates me the most about the greasy palmed extremely online black nazi Mark Robinson is that other than the nazi shit and the peeping tom stuff, there’s nothing wrong with any of his kinks. If getting off on transgender porn gets your patriotic ass to full staff, you go, champ. My rule of thumb my entire life has been whatever you do in your bedroom is your thing just do me a solid and spare me the details. Even as a young Republican in the 80’s and early 90’s I never gave a fuck- my attitude was “they don’t want to fuck me” and “whatever.” You do you, if you will. Everyone has a kink. The hard part should be finding someone who shares it, not the rest of the bullshit we lay on people.
But this motherfucker goes out of his way to hurt people who don’t live their lives according to some arbitrary standard he doesn’t even follow. Not only is he attacking transgender and gay people and drag queens and everyone else all the time, but there will be a side effect to his liking transgender porn because it will be used as proof that there is something weird or wrong with transgender people because only a sick fuck like Robinson would like that. They’re gonna get hurt doubly because of this fucking asshole, and all they want to do is be themselves and figure their own lives out in a world already really dangerous or traumatic to anyone “different.”
Side note I remember a while back at homecoming someone asked me what my type was and I said “willing” and I think that may be my best fast response quip of all time and everyone got hysterical.
Speaking of homecoming, Joelle will be here in a couple weeks for… Homecoming. We had considered getting hitched here but I was kind of being a twat about things (I don’t want to get married in Bethany I have given this place enough of me) but she does, and then all the other bullshit happened (her mom being ill, her best friend getting early retired), so now it is off the books. We had thought about just going to California for a weekend at the end of November, but I don’t want to spend that kind of money when she needs a new fridge and all the bullshit here. As you can see, I have a lot of unresolved stuff bouncing around my head and have to sort things out. I need to just stop being a douchebag and say yes to whatever she wants to do when she wants to do it.
This entire section of this post is for me. Sometimes I need to say things out loud and make you motherfuckers bear witness so I don’t change my mind again. Like I did getting Lily. And becoming a Democrat. And quitting drinking. That’s just how I roll and you fools are here for the ride.
I see that R-Jud was champing at the bit to start posting, so here is a proper welcome to the front page. Fool.
This seems absolutely fucking bonkers to me:
Pennsylvania’s dormant Three Mile Island nuclear plant would be brought back to life to feed the voracious energy needs of Microsoft under an unprecedented deal announced Friday in which the tech giant would buy 100 percent of its power for 20 years.
The restart of Three Mile Island, the site of the worst nuclear accident in U.S. history, would mark a bold advance in the tech industry’s quest to find enough electric power to support its boom in artificial intelligence. The plant, which Pennsylvanians thought had closed for good in 2019 amid financial strain, would come back online by 2028 under the agreement, according to plant owner Constellation Energy.
If approved by regulators, Three Mile Island would provide Microsoft with the energy equivalent it takes to power 800,000 homes, or 835 megawatts. Never before has a U.S. nuclear plant come back into service after being decommissioned, and never before has all of a single commercial nuclear power plant’s output been allocated to a single customer.
There are so many layers to how bad this is (and fucking hell we are just skipping and jumping our way to becoming the batteries for the Synthients in the Matrix, aren’t we?), but chief of them has to be using old nuclear technology. I am all for nuclear energy, think we need to construct new plants, but not recommissioning an accident zone and definitely not so my facebook feed can be jammed with more fucking ai art.
Gonna go ice my hand and watch the Boys, season 4. TTYL.
