Extremely grateful for my team at the cancer center, but looking forward to seeing less of them. As my oncologist said, "Hopefully I'll never need to see you again!"

But for now I can get my blood tested every few months, keep my fingers crossed, and keep on living.
Apparently my complications were the subject of a expert panel discussion at the cancer institute this week. π€£ I'm happier writing case studies than being the subject of one.
Because the cancer was aggressive and widespread (stage 4a, 9 Gleason), there's a substantial chance of it returning at some point over the course of my lifetime. Then I'll need to enter into a round of treatment and deal with that fight.
Based on how the cancer had spread to lymph nodes removed during the surgery and some of the nearby plumbing, they assumed it had spread to other systems and further treatment would be needed. For now? It's not!

Positive news! My PSA levels are under 0.1, in the undetectable range. If you don't have a prostate anymore, this is the biomarker to indicate presence of prostate cancer in the body.
Lazy chaotic jumble, focusing on utilitarian accomplishment of missions and a pile of habitats. Like the hot mess that is my ACNH island.
Not now. Please no.

Thank you! Greatly appreciated. β€οΈ
At least I've convinced a few CSers to see a doctor. π€£
The true tragedy of Macbeth is outlined when one Witch asks "When shall we three meet again?", it's so hard to get your schedules to align as adults
Trying to catch up on five million burning fires that took place while out on medical leave. There's not enough coffee, and I'm extremely grateful for how great my colleagues are with what they had to handle.
This is my cue to evangelize by far the funniest Andor meme yet made youtu.be/Mt5z4IkD-qE?...

But standing here among the people of Punxsutawney and basking in the warmth of their hearths and hearts, I couldn't imagine a better fate than a long and lustrous winter.
When Chekhov saw the long winter, he saw a winter bleak and dark and bereft of hope. Yet we know that winter is just another step in the cycle of life.
Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Singing through the bloody mist
Weβll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst

You ever read a book about watchmaking? It changes you.
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itβs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Timehop wishing me a happy birthday. And showing my 3537 day streak.
@timehop.bsky.social Thank you so much!
With how much I need to (carefully, painfully) get up in the middle of the night and stand next to bed, it feels like a really crappy Paranormal Activity sequel. #cancer
Much like the cantrip Mage Hand, I currently cannot carry more than ten pounds. #cancer
Okay, I will preface this with the GIGANTIC disclaimer that I promise I know how this looks, and I *swear* this is not personally motivated: If you have an old #LiveJournal account, and it has things you still care about in it, download it or import it to Dreamwidth SOON. Details:
No more trying to spend the last scraps of money on an old MetroCard before it expired. End of an era.
Exactly. I've met a few Mongol personas at Pennsic that would have a lot to say about this.
Someone should sic the SCA on them.
They would be champing at the bit to respond.

Tweet from Ice-T about Fallout New Vegas being addictive despite flaws.
Getting to see a live action Novac was awesome. Looking forward to seeing more of New Vegas in future episodes.
Ice-T's experience with the best #Fallout still cracks me up fifteen years later.
Late entry for best vulnerability name of the year, and I don't see it being beat. Banger job to whoever named this one, I actually guffawed
