Today on “Pillow or Bear Trap”…

Like having cancer and AIDS at the same time.

I told my wife, the day I see an actual fucking doctor when my appointment time is, I’ll either die of shock or but a lottery ticket.

In my experience you’re lucky if some not-an-MD is checking your weight and blood pressure within half an hour, but if you’re five minutes late they’re sending you a bill for them doing literally nothing and canceling you entirely. I’ve never seen anybody so high on their own fucking importance while at the same time showing not the slightest smidgen of respect for the time of anyone else unfortunate enough to have to interact with them.

I wish I had a job where I could fuck up the timing of every single task every single day that consistently and still be employed. Not that I would, because I recognize that other people’s time matters.

Except then they send you a bill for services not rendered and act like that’s legitimate.

Sounds like how the people of Palestine feel all the time.

I used to do Renaissance Faires.

“Wild Mountain Thyme” was the song the entire cast sang together at the end of each day, my first year.

It hits me like a truck every time.

So why do so many keep dying?

Because these deaths are caused by murderous assholes with over-inflated egos and immunity to consequences. ACAB.

All 13 of Erebus’s Black Crusades aren’t better. >…>

The Horus Heresy. When you see what the Emperor’s vision actually was, and really get to compare it to the galaxy they got, it’s just… so much worse. And the galaxy is pretty goddamn bad to begin with. But you know there’s a special place at the very bottom of hell for Erebus.

Magnus did nothing wrong and Russ has fleas.

Have you tried earning people’s attention instead of demanding it?

They’re not failing. They’re actively choosing not to.

Because that’s what young people need, more ways to be excluded from society and isolated.

ACAB

I would laugh my ass off if she did.

And of course she goes about it in the most adorable way possible.

I’m shocked he got any consequences at all. His magic costume must’ve not been enough to grant immunity for once.

Anyone enrolled in the SAVE Plan who took out less than $12,000 in initial loans and has been paying them down for the past 10 years or more will have them forgiven.

It always pisses me off when I see qualifications like this. You know who needs forgiveness? People who got suckered into a lot of fucking debt. You know who needs forgiveness? People who have missed a lot of fucking payments.

Qualifications like this seem designed to make sure relief goes directly to those who need it least every time.

Any excuse to further marginalize young people and exclude them from society. Fellow old people never fail to disappoint me.
