STL. He/Him. Friendlier on Facebook. Bokononist. Chump. I love my cats and whiskey but never in the same glass. Tweets unaffiliated with all employers/people.

Okay. That's it. I'm out. The Nazis can have this shithole. Fuck you, Elon.

@TerryWJohnston Those years don't count. This one does.

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

I'm on Facebook, Threads, Instagram, and so on... https://t.co/n4Aeywjmtf will get you to me.

A former Bernie-Or-Buster with some VERY important words for people on the Left taking purity stances right now or threatening to not vote or protest vote.

PLEASE listen. This is what we've been saying for the last decade.

It matters.

Just a reminder that "modern history" includes George W. Bush. And Bush is DIRECTLY responsible for what the Republican Party has become.

Trump is not the exception. He is the result.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Bob Costas on Trump: "He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history.

You have to be in a toxic cult to believe that Trump has ever been emotionally, psychologically, intellectually, or ethically fit to be president”

I'm 44 and getting into Built to Spill for the first time. So there's that.

Give me a standalone Infinity Inc or Bone or Blankets or some shit, man.

I feel so lost when it comes to comic book movies these days. The most recent Marvel one I've seen is Guardians 2. And I didn't love it. And the last DC one was Joker (1) I guess...

I don't know how or plan to catch up.

Like many people, every once in a while I wonder if I'm being Truman Showed. But then, like...why? Who's watching this shit?

It's under 65 in here. Broke down and switched on the heater. (Going to be cool for a few days.) Have a headache from the burning smell that comes from the first time you do that in a season. Going to be a long afternoon.

I really want to move to Canada, mostly for musical reasons.

From now on I'll be showing ASMR the respect it deserves by pronouncing it "as mister."

One of my favorite record stores has been slowly removing everything I loved about them. That sucks. Guess I'll have to promote the runner up.

I'm waiting until after the election to make any plans for Christmas. I need to know if it'll be the last one first.

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

A ham flavored beverage would make things a lot simpler for me.

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

ALL of them, by the way. I know the outages aren't the fault of everyone who works there. But it's their fault that they fucking work there. For a company that sees their job as a nuisance. That has abandoned North County despite being the monopoly.

They're ALL fucking culpable.

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

My power came back on at some point, btw. But im sure @AmerenMissouri will fuck it up again at the next breeze or sunrise or nothing at all. Motherfuckers.

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

They've given a "safe restoration time" of 10:45. The cause of the outage is "undetermined."

So how can you have a restoration time?

Last time they did that, it was 13 hours after the restoration time...

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

Hey @AmerenMissouri. My fucking power is out for the third fucking time in a fucking month. Being your customer is basically torture at this point. Get your shit together. I'll see you in court.

[🐾Derek Brink🐾 @Derek_Brink]

Always on the weekends, too. Isn't that a conveniently observable fucking trend?
