34. R2D2 wearing cosmetic glitter: your sweary sparkle punk sidekick. Bi/grey ace and agender. Too many feelings about books, music, theme parks, and games.

Pinned tweet!
I'm Cori and I'm looking to be more involved in the TTRPG space.
I'd like to playtest your game or join your party! I come from a theater background and have been roleplaying for over 10 years now. Areas of expertise include horror and story/character driven games.

@carter_sherman The third doc told me I should get an IUD instead. She's seen me cry my way through pap smears, and getting an IUD is a far more painful procedure that needs repeating. And it's still not permanent!

I gave up after that.

@carter_sherman The second doc told me that my husband should get a vasectomy instead.
1. This is about my body and my own control over it.
2. Sexual assault is a thing.
3. I'm not going to ask another person to get surgery on my behalf.

GOALS.

Big story in Norway this summer is a walrus we've named Freya has made it to our shores and is touring the country, laying around and sinking boats

@Hydrangea1960 @BB_MDN @backstreetsmag @springsteen @Ticketmaster The good news is, it'll probably be worth it. I hear The Boss puts on an incredibly good show, and often plays for 3+ hours. I wouldn't put up with this nonsense for just anyone, hahaha. This is a bucket list item for me for sure!

[Mx. Cori D. (they/them) @feeling_is_1st]

@Hydrangea1960 @BB_MDN @backstreetsmag @springsteen @Ticketmaster In small venues (where I attend most of my concerts), the cost is very often the same for every ticket! But once you start looking at arena shows, it gets way more complicated, unfortunately. Couple that with high demand and Ticketmaster's monopoly, and you get today's debacle.

@BB_MDN @backstreetsmag @springsteen @Ticketmaster Here's from Boston. Surge pricing had nosebleed tix up to $700 at around 10AM. Unbelievable. (Fortunately a friend got lucky and got comparable balcony seats for $150 for us)

[Mx. Cori D. (they/them) @feeling_is_1st]

@liztc2 @springsteen @Ticketmaster Wholeheartedly seconded. The "Official Platinum" surge pricing structure is out of control.
A friend got us balcony tickets for Boston at face value, about 150 when the presale opened. Within an hour, comparable seats were up to $700. Egregious.

No way around this.

I tried 21 different kinds of Mountain Dew.

@everywhereist I have never met a Dew I liked (though I admittedly haven't gone out of my way). I admire your commitment and sacrifice in trying far more flavors than I have. You deserve the Nobel Prize in Science. Or maybe a Medal of Honor.

[Mx. Cori D. (they/them) @feeling_is_1st]

@everywhereist Mtn Dew Pitch Black gave my friend group a shared exestential crisis. It has a distinct flavor but vanishes from the mind when you try describing it. It tastes like nothing and everything. It has been discontinued, presumably in a failed attempt to prevent societal collapse.

This is incredible. I love music. And apparently I also love this Canadian radio station I've only just heard of.

@caffein8edqueer Z O O M I E S!! This is the CUTEST

[Mx. Cori D. (they/them) @feeling_is_1st]

@brick_surfer @hellodonavon @TonyBologna8 @nicolefunke I have a vivid, joyful memory of my dad asking a telemarketer "So, what, exactly, do you mean by 'windows'?" he loved to ask progressively more stupid questions till he got hung up on. RIP to your uncle, and to my dad, may they laugh together in Heaven over their time well spent.

Ya boi's pathology came back clear! 3 tumors removed (the one I could feel, and two others that were so small they didn't show up on imaging), none of them cancerous/malignant! 🎉🎉🎉

[Mx. Cori D. (they/them) @feeling_is_1st]

[cw: cancer]
So I'm facing down a potential breast cancer diagnosis. Please don't worry, I am confident in my doctors and the odds are pretty good that this is gonna be nothing. But I want to talk about something I've been noticing as I've been doing research.

I have slept allllllll day. Feel kinda like I got hit by a truck but also surprisingly well rested.
