Attempting to be funny. Not promising to be inoffensive.

Once upon a time, Twitter was a fun microblogging site where I could spout stupid things and no one would read them or care. Then it became a SERIOUS PLATFORM. Bah, humbug. Time to spout stupid things again.

I love that the Veronica Mars movie ends with "I am an addict," because now that I've made it through three seasons and the movie for the third or fourth time, I'm ready to start right back at the beginning—AGAIN! 😉 Hello, I'm a Veronica Mars addict... 😅

Our move across the country in 2024 was far more traumatic than I anticipated. I am no longer in my 20s with no kids & one cat. I am an ADHD clutterbug in my 40s with teenagers, two cats, and 25 years of marriage. Even a short move across town is breaking my system-loving brain.

@robolivermd @shipwreckedcrew Lemon crossed a line, though. Churchgoers have reasonable expectation of safety from political attack in their privately owned spaces meant for religious service. O'Keefe secretly records while talking to targets in *public spaces* not protected by the Constitution. Not the same.

@LotsaSnuggs @DOGE__news They'd have AI do it, and wouldn't check it for errors. We won't even get started on signatures. 😆

At this rate, the groundhog's not going to come out at all in three days, because forget that nostalgic crap IT'S FREEZING!!

Wake me up when it's hoodie season again, 'kay?

Well I would just LOVE to make New Year's Resolutions on New Year's, but I think it's safer to do that in March. I'd rather hibernate and eat air-fried chicken nuggets and potatoes for the next three months during the mini ice-age otherwise known as "winter", TYVM.

... So, today, at least, I am leaning into "I just CAN'T." I'll "can" later, when my attitude readjusts & I've had time to prepare. It's not them, it's me. I can't relate to people right now. I can't force socialization today. It's okay, though. I'll come back later. 💖 (3/3)

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

I'm in a weird holding pattern right now. I've gotten mental and physical rest over the holidays, but I'm still tired. So, today, I'm giving myself permission to "can't". I COULD go to a Bible study thing that happens on Thursdays, but... (1/3)

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

...every fiber of my being except the part that feels like I should be obligated to go because I "have nothing else going on" is digging in its heels & fighting any weak resolve that exists. ... (2/3)

Fun Ways To Celebrate January 6

The more I listen to my 6th grade "tape diary", read my old fanfic, or remember the things my brothers and I recorded with our dad's video camera, the more I am INTENSELY grateful we did not have the internet in its current form when I was a kid. 😅 #TheCringeIsReal

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

TFW you FINALLY find a song you've been searching for for almost 30 years, because you've acquired a tape player, discovered an unlabeled tape from college with that very song on it, & put your headphones up to your phone to use Google Song Search so you can look the artist up.

There are many great works I would gladly sing again, but there is something inherently perfect about Beethoven's 9th
Perhaps even something scientific, since Beethoven was largely deaf by the time he composed it.

I don't know. It's just great, is all.

Merry Christmas!!! 🎄🎁

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(1 of 3)As it is the Christmas season, we must watch Die Hard. I do kind of think it would have been poetically perfect had they made it exactly the length of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, with the credits rolling in the 2nd half of the 4th movement. Shorter movie, but a neat homage.

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(2 of 3) In other news, while I can't identify my favorite album ever made, I CAN identify my favorite symphony. Beethoven's 9th is pretty much ingrained in my psyche. Want to recruit me to sing in any choir? Tell me we're doing the 9th.

(2 of 2) ...some secret backstory where she survived some Soviet gulag or KGB action in Eastern Europe. She's just so happy to be a SAHM with an eccentric husband, because it's still a far better life than she had on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Or something. 😆

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(1 of 2) Watching Gremlins, because it's a Christmas movie. I've always admired Ellen Ripley in Aliens as a badass mom character, but forget how incredibly hardcore Lynne Peltzer is in Gremlins. She definitely has some frustration she's working out. But I can't help but invent...

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(4/4) It's probably more productive to ask my what my favorite genre is, and even that will change by the day. I might as well be the iPod Shuffle in human form. 😆 Merry Epic New Age Classical Country Pop Christmas!

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(3/4) If I was forced to pick something, it would probably be some obscure Narada new-age album from the early 90s, and even that would be a compilation of stuff from various artists, so not truly a "record".

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(2/4) I'm a child of the radio and mix-tape era. I listened to singles or compilations most of my life. I pick music according to my mood, and I have rarely listened to whole albums that my favorite songs have come from. I'm totally a playlist listener now.

[Deltasierra @Deltasierra]

(1/4) Now that I'm going to school in the audio engineering industry, I've been asked a few times, "What's your favorite record?" They hate when I say, "I don't have one." Because, even after 45+ years of life in the USA, I truly don't.
