Good news, folks! I’m 95% recovered from the lurgy, and the aliens have decided it’s time for them to return to their home planet. One or two of them have stayed behind to nosh on my face, but they’re mostly full by now. I can actually run errands without having to take a nap afterwards,… Continue Reading
Ghost in the Shell opened this weekend–and bombed gloriously. The universal panning has been delicious, and I tweeted this: me about gits bombing rn: pic.twitter.com/VjlihZ7CXc — Minna Hong (@asiangrrlMN) April 2, 2017 Before you say it, no it’s not very mature of me, but I’m not feeling very mature about this issue right now. I… Continue Reading
For the first time in weeks, I don’t feel like aliens are chewing my face from the moment I wake up until the moment I fall asleep. For this, I am thankful, and I find myself in a much better mood as well. There’s a spring in my step, and I can smile rather than… Continue Reading
Ed. Note: I was really sick for the past few weeks, which is why there haven’t been any POOG posts for the past few Fridays. I apologize, but I had temporarily misplaced my funny bone, so any POOG post during that time would have consisted of me whining about my health. Where’s the fun in that,… Continue Reading
About a month ago, this president’s staff accused Obama of having a shadow government. Never mind that there was absolutely zero evidence of this–that’s never stopped them before. Besides the fact that many Americans including me would be crying tears of joy if this were actually true, it got me thinking about the disparity between… Continue Reading
Day 26 I have to be very quiet because the aliens are sleeping, and I most emphatically do not want to disturb them. They are taking a break from chewing on my face, and I much appreciate the respite. Oh, shit. They’re stirring. Gotta go. I’ve been joking for the past few weeks that I… Continue Reading
That’s a nice Congress you have there. It would be a shame if anything happened to it. That’s what I imagine this president said to Paul Ryan before placing a horse head on his pillow while they were discussing the healthcare bill. To summarize, the Republicans in the House placed forth a truly heinous healthcare… Continue Reading
Most of the time, I am perfectly fine with being on the edge of American society. I am *deep breath* a Taiwanese American, bisexual, fat, old, unmarried, childfree, agnostic teetotaling, makeup-free, taiji-practicing/sword-loving woman with four tats who hates shopping, cooking, and clothing, but likes video games, graphic novels/comics, and sports*. It’s just who I am,… Continue Reading
One of the weird things about recovering from being sick is that my sleep gets really weird*. One of the only things I like about being sick is that I can get a solid chunk of sleep without much effort. Granted, I’m still fucking tired when I wake up, but at least I get some… Continue Reading
Being sick is many things, including fucking boring. All I can think about is how miserable I am and how I don’t want to do anything other than sleep or just loll on the couch. It’s one reason I withdraw when I’m sick–I don’t want to subject others to my whining about how terrible I… Continue Reading
