ironymaidenwe finally made an order with Saint Javelin for some fun swag that supports humanitarian aid in Ukraine. (for US peeps, the prices are in CAD.) i grew up on a farm* so one of the things i got was a sticker inspired by this and other Ukranian farmers towing away military equipment with tractors.
an incompetent person at work is getting fired for being incompetent. i might have felt bad about it a couple weeks ago because they were a nice person who seemed eager. but at this point i can't wait for them to be gone so i can stop worrying about what they will break next. maybe i'll find time to write a locked post when the dust settles.
holy shit the Obi-Wan Kenobi teaser trailer dropped. i have read novels upon novels worth of Kenobi fanfic during the pandemic and am heavily emotionally invested in the character... so I am both thrilled and terrified by this thing. it reminds me of waiting for Wonder Woman. i'm worried that it's going to retcon his final scene in Star Wars in some awkward way, among other dumb things Disney is capable of. (and i know there's stuff that just isn't happening here; he's not going to have a cry about Satine and if we ever do find out what happened to Korkie it will be elsewhere.)
one of the side-effects of the war in Ukraine is that C and i are having rich conversations about geopolitics and the Cold War. a) the conversations are just good b) this is totally how we ended up dating originally, talking for hours about this kind of shit. so while everything is awful, this is also nostalgic and by association kind of sexy?
i am kind of in love with what sounds like a Goth cover album that i would have worked into my college radio show every week but is actually the Chipmunks on 16 speed.
*insert rant here about John Deere's current practices and also, hey it's Ukranian hackers that help farmers around the world do their own tractor maintenance
