I do … things.

@Jammer_Volts @moarinternets @JadedTLC @millanda @Realicity This is exactly how I pictured Hope in my head. I mean ... it's uncanny.

I'm going to steal this picture and turn it into a token for the next time hope appears. Thank you very much!

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@lourdesgnavarro Thank you, Lulu. I’ll miss you.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@AkilahObviously Gonna miss your voice every weekday, Akilah, but you’re going out strong: today’s interview with the Texas and North Carolina teachers was great, one of the sharpest pieces on WAD yet.

Take care of yourself.

@JulianaLung The freshman and sophomore pages of every high school yearbook from every single year of the 80s and 90s will disabuse you of this thought pretty quickly.

@N_A_K @StarTrek La Sirena. Preferably outbound to DS9.

I’m fascinated by the Star Trek universe that exists outside of Starfleet, and I want to spend more time there.

So, yeah: La Sirena.

Damn the electric fence!
Damn the electric fence!

Today’s obsession: watching the new Roomba map the house.

@iamBrandonTV “Do you play music? I play guitar. Well, rhythm guitar, really. I’m a little rusty. Do you want to jam sometime? It’s cool if you don’t. Sorry.”

More importantly: if I sat next to this guy on a plane, I’d let him have the armrest. Those spikes, man.😳

@pookleblinky I dunno, I think he had good chemistry with the tank Zaphod told him to stop in Restaurant. I mean, sure, the tank was dumb & violent, but it cared about him more than Z did. It would’ve been tough, but maybe those two could’ve worked it out and been, if not happy, content.

@TessFowler Call your local newspaper and see if they’ll sell you the remnant or butt end of a roll of newsprint?

When I worked at a paper, we used to sell them off pretty cheap, but that was a while ago, and newsprint may be too expensive now.

@ChrisSSims English has irregular plurals. Spanish has irregular verbs. Russian has an entirely different alphabet. Why do you think readers will get tripped up on fictional irregularities?

And don’t damn English: the problem’s your condescension to your audience.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@ChrisSSims So, no elves and dwarves, then.

Sounds like a fun rule you’ve made up. Enjoy playing by it.

@OregonRolledA20 When the barbarian is brought to 0 hp, all creatures within a 10’ radius take psychic damage equal to the barbarian’s INT modifier, and must make an INT save or be stunned for 1 minute; save to shrug it off at the end of their turns.

@hexcrawl The first starship I ever piloted, naturally.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@PKBohan Says you.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@touchofallright Browsing and the luck of the impulse buy.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@ghweldon A steed carrying a heavily armed and armored Goliath all over the place? Sore and Tired.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@OregonRolledA20 The worst was “brazier.” I was around 11 years old, had never heard it, and was pronouncing it “brassiere,” which I’d also never heard.

My parents really wanted to know what the fuck this D&D game was all about.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

@xaichai Yup.

People tell me this is called “anxiety.” I generally have imaginary arguments with those people about that, though.

[John Lowery @johnhlowery]

More than 12 hours with no power, and the outage map still says we can expect it resolved by 11:45 last night. Come on @cpsenergy, I know this is hard work and stressful, but can’t we at least get our ETR updated?
