RIP to my right nipple piercing, the doctor said I have to take her out. Her downfall was a Jockstrap Happy Hour/Rockstrap combo plus my fanny pack in fall 2025 :(.
Got to be community hole and pole at the Eagle and that’s beautiful
September! I did not think about No Cars Having Aux Ports Anymore so we had to Spotify for the road trip :(
if you don't know your own address it's because you specifically don't have to know it. people that detached from reality shouldn't be in a position to drive social policy for those of us living in reality
Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?” Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...
I have to tell you - when I first came across this Insta video last week, I was a bit concerned that this astroturf group had found a sympathetic main character, but her publicly claiming to The Post that a bus route redesign feels like Nazi Germany has assuaged my concerns.
Here's Betty Davis (the "bus lanes are like the Nazis" lady) being the public face of a new advocacy group that, as far as I can, is run by the same white lady who hid behind Black faces protesting the Vanderbilt open streets and Underhill redesign because she drives to PA and NJ regularly.
I have been in France with my mother for the last week, so far my favorite museum was the Vallois Rope Factory Museum (honorary mention for MuMA in Le Havre, which had a great wall of cows, demerits for the Eugene Boudin Museum which only had bad art)
If you saw this system anywhere else, you’d rightly call it apartheid.
just learned this today

Might as well post it here! A magical girl animation I've been slowly chipping at over the weekends for ages.
Think of how many potential Nanamis we lose every season due to the current state of production. The industry needs to change. Do It For Her.
been watching early utena. it's true: if TV anime seasons were longer today, they'd all have room for more nanami episodes. this would obviously be a positive
A friend gave me a bunch of his old jewelry, idk if I’ll go this big, but nice to have (and pass on maybe!)
Last one for the day! Sadly this person said their piercing was intimidating so they switched out for a bar… does this look intimidating to you?
