And why is Tom, specifically, such a magnet for this?! I gave my shirt to my husband for this reason. Nobody says a word to him about it, except to give him a thumbs up or a, 'yeah, man!' 🙄
VACATION 8/8-8/16 - Nicole Dornsife | Thornwolf@thornwolf.com · 40m agoI stopped wearing my Tom Petty shirt in public, one I got from a concert at the Hollywood Bowl, bc it became an exercise in subjecting myself to pop quizzes by men (once at the post office) about albums/band members. They get to just enjoy music, but I have to become an encyclopedia of minutiae.
for a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? Three to ten staples, still stuck together all brand-new, but somehow too small a stack to successfully wedge into the stapler when you have one urgent thing to staple & it's out
darth™️@darthbluesky.bsky.social · 2d agofor a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? a mysterious key that does not unlock any thing
As someone who grew up in SoCal and remembers smog alerts and maybe being able to see the mountains once a year, yeah, air quality is soooooooo much better these days
Constantine@ajaxsinger.bsky.social · 4d agoFood, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.
If Jennings is the ally he claims to be, he would use his celebrity and privilege to get this lady her account back.
Karrid 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️@karrid.myatproto.social · 4d agoWell, it appears that, sometime in the last 17 hours, Gwen Pepperoni was suspended for the crime of pointing out Ken Jennings' transphobia.
genuinely wild that HE didn't lead with it like "oh this thing is taking over my brain, maybe the benefits don't matter and won't matter until we can stop it from taking over people's brains"
if the guy who the internet sees as the ultra logical rational science guy is just spiraling down into AI addiction that concerned his loved ones, maybe folks shouldn't be worried about forgiving him as much as going "holy shit yikes 911 this is bad news bears"
i don't believe anyone has "good-faith" concerns about trans women in sports in 2026. there's been too much time to hear the actual evidence, the actual people affected, and the role the debate plays in attempts to purge trans people from American life. anybody picking that side has made a choice
victoria zeller🫛 (RISEBALL, summer ‘27)@dirtbagqueer.rocks · last wk.enough of this shit
Good-faith concern on this issue would be going, "hmm, professional sports leagues should probably have some standards in place to ensure trans competitors aren't getting an unfair advantage," googling for 5 minutes, realizing every sports league already has those standards and dropping it.

Concerns over fake phenomena cannot be held in good faith. There's no such thing as "good faith" concern over razorblades in Halloween apples or vaccines causing autism. If you still have 'concerns' about these issues you are uninformed, a bigot or being manipulated. No other option.
You have value because you exist. And life should validate that existence. Instead they want you to exist to create value. They have it backwards.
If you don’t start from the dignity and inherent equal worth of every human being and keep it central to your life, policies, governments, businesses, then everything ends up this way.
ITS ALL A CONSTRUCT. ITS ALL ENGINEERED. ITS ALL BACKED BY THE PETER THIELS AND ELONS OF THE WORLD. FOR. MONEY.
In response to my email to Unique Vintage re: my displeasure with their direct marketing campaign promoting the Harry Potter collab to me, which contained a direct request to remove me from the mailing list immediately, I received: A 'how was your interaction!' survey. No action, just that.
Hahaha so Unique Vintage replied to my irate email with the response that everyone has been sharing. They intend to 'not move forward' with the HP collab & just 'sell through' the merch they have. And tonight at 8:37 they sent me a damn promo email...for their HP collab. 💀 READ THE ROOM.
"Did I take this? Oh yeah. 8 minutes ago." And that is why I have a timer cap on my meds 😹
Also, how can Unique Vintage make this claim while they spit on every "T" customer (and everyone who loves them!) with this collection? You can't have it both ways. Either you stand with transgender folks, or you hang on to HP "nostalgia" and decide it's a valid avenue for profit 🤮

Fuck you, Unique Vintage. They've been my go-to forever and this sucks unbelievably hard. Not getting a single dollar from me again unless they fix this.
Seanan McGuire@seananmcguire.bsky.social · 2w agoUnique Vintage, a company that does an annual Pride collection and has always encouraged customers to see them as a queer-friendly vendor, has just announced their Harry Potter collection.
Whew. When do we finally say no thanks, Bernie? Because this is...big yikes.

We're in the hardware store, chatting about lumber. Turn around, some dudes have just...absconded with our lumber cart?! I was like, excuse me? Did you just walk off with my cart? Guy goes, 'oh yeah sorry, happens to me all the time and I hate it.' Then maybe don't be that fucko? 🤔
I at this point don’t care if it’s Dems, DSA, Working Families Or the god damn SNORKS at this point If somebody presents a good plan and a decent frame work of how we’re gonna come back from hail with TRANSPARENCY I AM SOLD
it does actually sound like taylor farms and the white house teamed up to try and blame taco bell for the outbreak. unprecedented corruption
Jessica Nix@jessicanix.bsky.social · 3w agoNEW: As cyclosporiasis cases jumped, the company linked to the outbreak - Taylor Farms - effectively delayed a recall that mounted in consumer confusion. Gift link for @business www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
The thing about someone ‘improperly receiving benefits’ is I don’t care. Oh no did someone get food or health care? Good!
One of the absolute joys of living with a completely neurotic cat and his half-neurotic littermate is the occasional bout of 'wake up scared,' which then triggers a three-cat-splosion Particularly great when you have also succumbed to all the sleeping cat vibes and are having a little nappy-nap 💀
Raising kids isn't about efficiency and the ruthless stamping out of imperfection, noise, and inconvenience. It's about getting a young person to hopefully become a decent older person! They have to live in society to do that!
This is Lamine Yamal the 19 year old star of the Spanish National team & FC Barcelona. He did this in May at the parade when Barca won the league. In case you’re not sure whom to root for tomorrow. ⚽️
