and my dear #cats, Kentucky and Louisiana! Welcome and nice to meet you!

Hellooooo Mspsocial! Nice to meet you! I'm Josh. I like reading, gaming, and many other things.

Here are the living beings that depend on me, Kentucky cat and Louisiana cat. Kentucky is from Kentucky, has no teeth, and enjoys chasing her toys. Louisiana's origin is unknown, but that was her name at the Minneapolis shelter so it seemed like fate. She enjoys waking me up in the morning to feed her.

I'm Josh and trying to figure out how to be a lawyer.

I have two cats, Kentucky and Louisiana.

I post about the Court, USPol, puzzles, my cats, and whatever media catches my fancy.

Ongoing joke pitch for #smashbros DLC packs: the invitations for Smash are being sent to Waluigi but various DLC character keep intercepting/stealing them.

Pro fudging: there are parts of the setting that don't get a lot of use; sticking the items there makes the PCs more likely to visit.

Con: fudging the reading means you have to do a lot of improving.

I've also come up with individual readings for the players based on their histories. That will be fun, I think.

Tomorrow night the party will probably get to the Tser Pool encampment and get a reading by Madam Eva. The readings importance to the plot is that it determines where specific items to defeat Strahd are located in the game world, along with who will be an ally to the party and even where to confront Strahd in Ravenloft.

This is neat but the random placement can be really damn random, and most other guides I've read say to fudge it and stick items where you want. #strahd #dnd

Case in point:

Her: I hate driving down here. Can you drive me to Target?

Me: Mom, it's 3 blocks away.

Her: But how do I get there?

Me: You literally will crash into it if you turn around and drive straight.

I love my mom, but my anxiety goes up around her, and she's always anxious, which makes me snippy because it's upping my anxiety.

I'm not going up North for Xmas this year, so I think I'll be spending Christmas Eve and day watching holiday horror movies or something.

Kudos to this article for making me feel for a HOA.

Looking forward to 5 years from now when Morris builds his little Xmas kingdom and his wronged employees come after him with a lawsuit. https://www.inlander.com/spokane/how-one-mans-quest-to-spread-christmas-cheer-led-to-a-miserable-four-year-war-with-his-neighborhood/Content?oid=15109011

Been avoiding going to my therapist as I waited for billing to resolve itself. Turns out it's resolved and they owe me money! (A $25 co-pay).

So therapy session scheduled, y'all.

Yes, your honor, I understand my last argument is a bit of a stretch.

This toot constitutes notice that I will, from now on, refer to "Baby It's Cold Outside" simply as "BiCO," thus saving on typing time and costs, increasing fun factor by saying "BiCO!" every time I step outside in the winter, and increasing bisexual representation in holiday music.

Like, maybe ask your gf and the other women in your life rather than me, a marginally woke gay guy that's still doing a lot of work on himself, thanks.

Out of the blue, my friend texted me and was like: "Where do you stand on the BiCO controversy?"

And I was like, "I'm so tired why are you even texting me about this?"

John Kelly, looking the adult to let the toddler get away with shit.

My brother had eye surgery a couple weeks ago--a partial cornea transplant. Doc says this one may be FUBARed--may need to do a whole cornea transplant.

Hollywood, please stop doing this hackneyed plot:

"This telling of Sonic's story sees him as a bit of a fish -- or hedgehog -- out of water. Sonic, voiced by Ben Schwartz, finds himself in our present-day world, wherein he develops a relationship with James Marsden's Tom Wachowski and also finds himself at odds with Jim Carrey's Dr. Robotnik."

So say Clinton won, the House and Senate both went GOP. Would The Clinton DoJ have pursued much against Trump? I can imagine, in that universe, the Clinton admin would have went after Russia rather than Trump, since the latter would be seen as attacking a political rival and House/Senate GoP would have screamed that such an attack was an impeachable offense.
