The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

As someone who lives in SoCal, close to LA, and only two hours from San Diego, the things I'm hearing are starting to get concerning. It all started with the Tangerine Tyrant saying at a rally in Nebraska a few days ago, that Iran could take out LA or San Diego, and it would be a "small price to pay" for keeping the world safe. Now, I'm not someone who tends to believe in conspiracy theories, I find people who do to be fucking nutters, but given that the USS Abraham Lincoln is set to return to its home port in San Diego tomorrow, people are saying that this administration may attempt a false flag attack. You know the Lincoln, the ship that was stationed in the middle east for 286 days, with no port stops to replenish anything, and like, 8 of its crew attempted to jump off the ship in desperation or in attempts to end their lives. So, a bit of a shitshow that was very public back in the summer.

I'm not saying anything is going to happen. I'm not saying our own nation would attack its own people. Of course I'm not saying that. But, I wouldn't put it past Trump and his administration to do something. I know a good amount of Marine Corps vets, and some of them are rather concerned about the things Trump has said. So... Yeah. I just find it a little concerning. To target two Californian cities, one which is stupidly conservative because of all the military bases in and around it, it's just weird that the sitting president would say something like that. It's really fucking weird. And all we can do is wait and watch.

Thank God someone took the time to explain that NORCAL means Northern California to me lately and not that whole "National Organization of Real Certified Astral Landlords.". I would have run across this here and thought... SoCal and assumed it was the Secret Order of Certified Astral Landlords. You know, the southern division that broke away over a disagreement involving interdimensional zoning laws, beachfront property, and whether ghosts qualify as legal tenants.
Fucking bureaucracy. Even in the afterlife. Imagine the fucking embarrassment I would have felt.

But seriously... I can't say I blame you for being concerned. The government has spent decades giving people plenty of fucking reasons not to trust it, and this administration certainly hasn't done much to inspire confidence. I'm not one to entertain every conspiracy theory that crawls out of the internet's collective asshole, but I'm also not naive enough to believe our government is somehow incapable of doing some seriously questionable shit. History has already settled that argument.

Yeah. I'm really not one to buy into the nonsense of conspiracy theories, but the fact that Trump has now doubled down on the idea of "Iran" bombing LA and San Diego, I'm less inclined to believe he's just using hyperbole now. As I said, I'm never going to be the first person the say that it was an inside job on tragedies, but... Should something happen, I'm not going to rule it out at this point. And that's fucking terrifying. Trump has shown that he has no regard for the lives of American citizens, and he hates us out here in California because we are such a blue state. So, I don't know. It's just really fucking concerning at this point.

I've been watching a lot of content about the new game, Dressmaker. It's exactly what the title says, you play a dressmaker and you get to make dresses for clients. Suffice to say, I'm a little obsessed. I think I may have to just commit and buy the game since it's playable on the Steam Deck. I had another game I used to play, it was a fantasy shop simulator, but since the dev has added so much to it, it has become really laggy, and not fun. And since I only seem to be in the mood to play cozy games these days, I think one where I get to make dresses is just perfect for me.

I like cosy games. Old Sega platform games where I can plod through them slowly.

I'm not keen on having lots of three-dimensional monsters or spaceships attacking me all at once.

A cup of tea and Sonic the Hedgehog is good enough for me.
