POG PUB 2025: About damn time. For a lot of things. But not everything.
Happy New Year, everyone.
I'll let you all mentally fill in the categories in the title.
if I only could have figured out how to work the sheepulator, maybe life would have been worth living
or maybe if I had got into quail fighting
or maybe if USA govt hadn't genocided my people, and stole our land
or maybe if I had made it to outback steakhouse with mark
I could have been somebody. I could have been a contender
But Mmm soup!

Happy New Year everyone. This is my first post in the '25 Pub. I didn't read the earlier messages because there were too many of them.
Did I miss anything?
Nope
Lol
Currently enjoying a couple of shows from the New Zealand comedy scene.
Taskmaster New Zealand turned me on to Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee.
It all feels warm, quaint and I'm enjoying it very much

Guy Montgomery is hilarious. If you like that show, he also has an Australian version of it with Aaron Chen as his assistant.

Thanks, filthy! 10 months out of work + Helene made 2024 kinda of an awful year, but 2025 is going to be better. Started a new relationship and about to watch Ohio State win the national championship game tonight! I feel very lucky and appreciative right now
TBob that is awesome news!!!! Best of luck. 😀
2024 was the worst year of my life. 2025 looking worse so far lol
but it's early days. it might turn around
I hope so my dude. Lots of time left at least

i think this is a pretty normal feeling
everything post covid much worse than pre covid
what's scary to me is that i don't have any real financial burdens and objectively know i'm doing better than most in the world who do have such burdens so it's hard to comprehend just how hard most out there must have it
financial burdens can be life breaking.. but some of the happiest times in my life, i was broke AF
congrats TBob!
Gaming the system? IT IS the system.
I'm fascinated by this snowstorm that's going to hit Houston, New Orleans and other places along the Gulf of [strike]Mexico[/strike] America tomorrow. Weather Channel said the last time New Orleans got an inch of snow was like 1963!
Global freezing!
i threw the i ching yesterday
it came up hexagram 1
no changing lines
favors bestowed from Heaven
this is a time of great creative power
a dragon awakens
align Will with Purpose
and take flight
I appreciate the art and creativity.
that may be the single worst piece of media I have ever seen
it's like some chthonic entity swallowed the soul of david lynch
and vomited out the detritus of america's psyche
I must cleanse the timeline
