A wildfire fanned by 115 kilometre per hour winds razed homes along the west side of British Columbia's Okanagan Lake, forcing many residents to escape to safety. The collapse of our one and only livable climate is accelerating!

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

Took the dogs into Lowes to grab some shellac and the huge Halloween displays were out, including a house sized pumpkin skeleton guy who sways his arms at you and laughs loudly. The dogs were like "huh, okay, seems like a fun guy" but then we went to a pet store later & they were spooked by a lizard

bluesky peeps... Wild Ask My cousin is stuck in Golden, no gas, and no power in town due to wildfire. Can you help me find out if there are plans to close the highway to stop people from being stuck? I can take him fuel but I'd need to know if I'm just gonna find myself stuck with him.

It genuinely bothers me that people are treating clothing like party favours. “I’ll only wear it once and throw it away so I’m gonna buy it on temu/schein.” Maybe buy something that you will use again like 99% of people in history did.

I think my most genuinely unpopular take is that a widely held and genuine consumer preference for cheaper, lower-quality goods, not private equity, is driving the decline in quality of consumer goods like clothing and housewares.

I was at my parents for dinner this week, discussing our family cruise next year. I said that I don’t wanna be in Florida any longer than I have to. My dad goes wait and walks inside. He comes out wearing a red hat like “this is how we will blend in” 🤣

I block a lot of people too if they’re being callous or assholes. I tend to reply to passive aggression with autistic honesty. Which makes them self destruct and run away bc they know deep down I’m right.

Yesterday someone posted about how Bluesky can’t take a joke without inserting something political. Someone replied with a joke, which someone else took seriously and posted a long passive aggressive reply. I pointed out that he was being that guy now.
