lawsoncl's DSLReports' forum post shared a funny comic strip showing two prisoners in jail...

:)NY (2022 -> 2023)!

A poll about your 2022:Your overlord's 2022 was still a meh like previous years for this overlord. It was still crazy as usual with close calls with the infamous panademic viruses and the other ones (still avoiding the infectious crowds who don't wear their masks, get vaccinated, etc. want free supposedly non-expiring AMC Theatres' black tickets from 2018 (first contacts, first gets)?). There were more quiet times to watch (movie/f(ilm/lick))s, play more video/computer games in the nest like old times, but there were still slammy times when no time like to play computer games like the last couple months. There were five total deaths that this old insect knew within the colony, former employers' co(lleague/worker)s, friends including one from college and church. All deaths were from illnesses like cancers like in 2013. This decade had many deaths so far too. :~( Hopefully, this new 2023 year will be better but doubtful (repaired old nest is once again leaking from the heavy rain). Also, this old indoor insect has to leave to outside far away from his nest again even with his slow worsen health issues and hates commuting far. :(
