Sunday Sampler: Black Hearts and Pink Blossoms Edition

Sunday Samplers are a “lightning round” of different subjects, whatever I feel like talking about, no matter how random or trivial or rambling. They’ll make appearances whenever I feel like it, but it’ll always be a Sunday.

No AI was used in the creation of this blog post. I have been using em-dashes since high school, and I’ll be damned if I let either the plagiarism machine or terminally online witch hunters take them away from me. Also, any art is by either real people or myself (which you will easily spot cuz it’ll look like trash).

Owen Hart would have been 60 this year.

Wait, let me rephrase that: Owen Hart SHOULD have been 60 this year.

Man, having a job that actually involves doing engaging work and being around other people really keeps you from getting too absorbed in your own thoughts. That's definitely a benefit, even if it comes with the downside of commuting on a known hell road twice a day. But there is another downside, and it's this - it doesn't let me get so bored & isolated that I start to think of topics for this blog.

So…

What’d I miss?

Hiatus time again

Look, I'll be as honest as I can. I am going through some very stressful work stuff right now, so I don’t have the drive to focus on anything else besides resolving it. So until this is resolved, I have to take a break. Sorry to anyone who was actually reading my stuff, but being able to earn a living without losing my sanity is naturally a higher priority than a blog.

UPDATE 2/4/26: So the work stress stuff is still present, but thanks to the recent sub-Arctic weather, it's metastasized into home stress. A flooded basement snowballed first into a new water heater, which then led to a new chimney liner... it's a LOT. I don't like to ask for help, but if you've enjoyed anything I've done, here or elsewhere, & wanna cushion the impending blow, I have Ko-Fi, Venmo, or Paypal. I'm in a completely dreadful place, so anything helps at this point. 2026 is shaping up to be the year that breaks me, and I don't want that in the slightest.

I’ve been threatening y’all with more nerd shit rants instead of general life stuff. So consider yourself warned, we’re gonna be talking about one of my big five influences, the 90s Jonny Quest reboot series.
