"Pope, would you please shut the fuck up"

asking the pope "how many local models do you run" and still thinking i'm going to see the pearly gates

If you're confused, like I was, an important thing to know is that Zach Bryan and Luke Bryan are two totally different guys.

Saw a new p-doc and she was gonna refer me to a therapist who sounded great: experienced with neurodivergent people. In my area. Nonbinary. The only problem? This therapist is so "in my area" that we share an apartment. She didn't know it but the doc was trying to refer me to my partner.

I do vote straight-ticket Democrat every two years.

What's your most "blue wave" liberal coded behavior? I rewatch the west wing about once a year. It's just... god, imagine being lead by competent, thoughtful, moral people who struggle to do their best.

Avery Brooks is 78 today

Fuckin love Avery Brooks

You're a penny-ante operator!

It's me. I'm Kathy. I've come over. It's so cold. Let me in your window.

Let me tell you the feeling of "this is where I belong" that came over me

Went in the Goodwill and they were playing Kate Bush

I remember seeing something on TV in the 90s where a guy (I wanna say Dave Foley maybe) was singing a song that went "I'm horny, so horny, when I woke up this morning I knew I was horny." I could've sworn it was Kids in the Hall but searches are bringing up nothing. Help me, hive mind?

Someone I respect affectionately nicknaming me "old man" would fix me.

The sexiest thing in the world is a partner who's really turned on by what you're doing to them. Like why would you ever want to have sex with someone who's not into it? Much less drunk or drugged or otherwise incapacitated? Seriously how do you even get hard to do that?

Kakistocracy, ever heard of it?

I saw a teenager wearing a Nirvana t-shirt and it occurred to me that Nirvana could plausibly be their grandparents' music

This is just so repulsive to me. It's been a decade or more since I stopped thinking of myself as a Christian, but the Christianity that I was once taken in by was explicitly directly the opposite of anything that could be described as "muscular."

“Muscular Christianity” means that when when you’re glazing the serial predator president who deports refugee children, executes fishermen, and builds idols to himself, you TYPE REALLY HARD.

I live in a city called Washington in a county that's also called Washington in the Pittsburgh exurbs. In favorable traffic it's like a 45 minute drive to downtown Pittsburgh. But if I tell someone in Pittsburgh I'm from Washington they're invariably like "Washington state?!"

Now do Donald Trump

After Benjamin Netanyahu, who I believe is a war criminal, just came and went from New York, I’ve been thinking a lot about the world my first granddaughter is about to enter.

This kind of shit is lowkey why I can't just exist in the world, because people have all kinds of bullshit rules about what you're supposed to do or not do, but there is not actually any place you can go to find out what those rules are.

I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

I asked an optometrist once and he just gave me a tight smile and asked me to follow his finger.

A Democrat enters the stage as Guns n' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle" plays in a clear nod to the crucial voting bloc of people who know who Upton Sinclair was.

And I didn't grow up in the South but I am descended from southern Appalachian white people, and it's hard to put into words how much it meant for someone who so credibly represented Appalachian culture to embrace queer folks the way she did

Listen: Benjamin Sisko has come unstuck in time

TMP is 2 Wrath of Khan is 3 III and IV are 1, but IV is also 2 Final Frontier is actually all three of them at once Undiscovered Country is 2. You could make a case for 1 or 3 but it's definitely 2. Generations is 2 and 3. First Contact is all 3 again. The ones after that don't matter.

there are only three narratives in fiction: 1) the hero's journey 2) a stranger comes to town 3) a greedy developer is going to tear down our beloved community center...UNLESS we put on the greatest breakdance show this town's ever seen

I'm so excited about the new art I just framed from @reforest-kelley.bsky.social It also comes in stickers and as a t-shirt (which I already had) willburrowsart.com/product/boss...

Catching up on The Hunger Games (I hadn't seen any of them) and wow these movies are not subtle. Really coulda done without the whole budding romance b-plot but on the whole they're not bad.

Rocket man, like the William Shatner song?
