*deep breath* ...I'm sorry, what the fuck do you mean "Carl Schmidt was right"?!!!!!!?? I need to shower and get offline. 90 Day Fiance isn't this stupid

Look. This is all my fault. I made the wish for something other than Boot Theory and forgot I was holding a dried money paw. I'm sorry but in my defense, it's a simple mistake to make

for reasons that only make sense if you're insane, a TPUSA kid complaining about burrito costs on xitter has the GOP's biggest divas going for each other's throats.

Hot gym take. If you can do pull ups without assistance, and there a multiple pull up bars, you shouldn't use the assisted machine, even if it's empty.

The first week back from two months of only doing body weight stuff when I could is really damn rough

Another thing I wanna add to my Caveats of Boot Theory is that the cheap shoes are made of cardboard. Whatever other real world applications there are here, my first (and niche, yes. That's why it's a caveat) thought is pointe shoes. Let's get into it.+

I'm trying to be less serious on social media cause for me, being serious on social media is depressing. That being said, I see a ton of people who have these very intense feelings about politicians and candidates in areas they don't live in. like, not even remotely. I think it's ... weird.

Has Emily Wilson weighed in on Boot Theory yet?

Maybe I just don't like The Crucible that much.

It feels like anyone having caveats to Boots Theory is treated like someone saying it's absolutely false and that the cardboard boots are 100% fine, really, and I wish I knew a way to get people past that. The Crucible teaches us about McCarthyism. It's not great for historical record of Salem.

Carriage Return@carriagereturn.bsky.social · yesterday

The Crucible is interesting here because while it does teach us a lot, it teaches us about one thing. In reality, the story it tells is very different from history and ages up Abigail, and puts the primary focus on the two men affected and sidelines the women when it isn't demonizing them

I'm not posting this to refute the theory. Just that with my better than basic but not scholarly levels of understanding clothing in The Past we get an idea of what was sustainable and well made that ... wasn't exactly the case. It's also with that Everyone Was Smaller and chunks of that are just+

I was assistant producing a show where the costume designer walked out during dress rehearsal. I get it, 26 year old director.

Pixie Casey@pixiecasey.bsky.social · 2d ago

in insane local news, the 26 year old director of a rocky horror production was arrested for sending threatening messages to himself in order to get the play shut down bc he didn’t want to deal with cast drama www.mynbc5.com/article/rock...

I am not Jewish so I very much apologize if I'm getting things wrong here, but as I understand it, Airbudding the rules is a bit more closer to a generalized stereotypical Jewish understanding rather than the generalized stereotypical Christian proscriptive?

So, in general, most stuff can be solved just by outweirding the fantasy limits of the original authors.

I wouldn't put this in Dead Internet Theory, but I will say that every major communications company I've had to work with that has a website with a log in to do transactional things has the shittiest website imaginable.

Yassified Rosario Dawson Standing Normal Rockwell Painting: Sailor Moon Supers is a great season, that's not filler, contains a lot of interesting themes about growing up, has probably the best animation quality in the show, the music slaps, and I actually learned to like Chibi-Usa in the sub.

...what do you mean there's a movie where Eric Northman doms Dudley Dursley?!!!

Carlotta in Phantom is right. She's a big enough singer that she's bringing in huge crowds that the company freaks out when she doesn't sing and advertises her as top billing. Maybe they didn't do this in the movie, but it's in the script. And now some chorus girl sleeping with a count shows up...

The protagonists of Rent insist on their right to squat for free in an Alphabet City warehouse; dine and dash from a local independent restaurant; MURDER A PUPPY FOR MONEY; and the antagonist is... their old roommate, because he got a job.

It's weird that the CVS in this small New England town doesn't accept sharps or unused meds and instead directs you to the police department.

Now with Hadestown, we get the pro shot discourse. No, not every show can do it. It's not just cause the landlords are greedy and y'all don't watch most of the pro shots that are available to buy so I don't believe you when you say every show should have one and you'd be first to buy it

I saw a video that was saying revivals that don't have a viewpoint shouldn't be happening and the replies were full "If you weren't alive for the original ...." which... I have thoughts on but then I realized they're talking about shows like Millie or BBAJ and not like ... My Fair Lady. Hashtag Olde

Project Runway: Alright 🚬s, you know who we're gonna partner with? THE NFL!!! That's right!! SOUND EXCITED LOSERS. SAY SOMETHING NICE ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT'S HUSBAND TO THE CAMERA.

There's a lot of quotes on this. Scrolling for a minute brings up the idea that people don't know what niche means. And some folks are just ...edgy.

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

If we're going by 100 years and not necessarily grandparents, we're looking at either owning a carpet company in NYC or a Comanche translator. Those are the two I know their professions.

Revan@revan.eurosky.social · last wk.

Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?

At the risk of engaging, I would like to say that living in NYC with family in rural Texas, the needs and what's missing of folks living in a food desert in Harlem are different from the needs and what's missing of folks living in Snook or Somerville, TX

Name the last junk food you ate.

I mentioned something like this before but I had a college professor who said that a ton of the Lists of Heroes No Ones Ever Heard Of in the Illiad were mythic ancestors of great houses so the listeners would hear THEIR ancestors in this and also be given an instruction on How To Not Do War
