Listening to the new Criminal Records and very enamored with the apparent iron-clad Law of History that goes

  1. There is a giant war
  2. The war ends - hurrah!
  3. The number of soldiers is now incredibly surplus to peacetime requirements
  4. A bunch of armed men without much in the way of prospects are just kinda hanging around
  5. Violent and organized crime spikes massively for somewhere between a few years and a generation

if you’ve ever wondered “how come in historical fiction and fantasy alike the countryside is always plagued by bandits,” this is why.

Interesting it’s not registering as “harder than I have any right going”, just harder than I can indefinitely maintain

Like that’s the thing about the hyperactive muscle growth rn – if you work something to exhaustion a few times, that’ll stop exhausting it. I honestly think I would need heavier dirt at this point.

I’ve had to take creatine before going to bed the last few days to make available enough energy for muscle growth while I sleep

k-machine, you are going to have to use your new muscles and energy to make that room look good

Really great texts suggestions in the middle of my conversation about Matthew Lillard.

When the front room gets messy these days at least it’s because some other room is getting clean; I only have a few more things to tidy in the kitchen before it’s fully organized and I can give the floor its most thorough cleaning yet.

I do appreciate Across the Spider-Verse mixing up the “issues with your child growing up” themes in that it’s the father with the real issues, that manifest in a particularly masculine way, and with the new universe teasing a resolution that would be further racialized: appreciate that it was your presence and guidance in childhood that set him right, without which he might have fallen into the same roughness you escaped from as a young Black man in the ‘80s and '90s but people close to you didn’t.

And that Miles’ mom being more positive isn’t played as mother-as-bearer-and-transmitter-of-domestic-life, she’s not excited about her baby growing up and forming a family of his own, when his dad, deep in his masculine-idiom issues, is like “and what’s he doing with this Gwen girl anyway?” she’s basically like “well, he probably wants to fuck her.”

Also appreciation for how the way nothing really triggers off the way Gwen/Miles would be an interracial pairing.

And how it pointed out that Gwen and Miles may have different skin colors but they in fact share a race-like fictive hyperextended kin group in that they’re both from police families.

I think a thing is if girls aren’t interested they don’t take it as seduction, and if they are I seem to get bonus points because it seems authentic rather than running a play?

And possibly the allistic thing is a bicameral mind thing where the social like, XO is distinct from and not directly “heard” by the captain? Only in my case both of them are descended from the same old personality holding the roles together so the XO has much more command experience than usual?

Yeah okay all parts of the torso not buried indistinct under the old lower roll of fat are tangibly more meaty to the touch.
