Seeing a guy weakly and pathetically crying in his car, going home, getting my own car and pulling up next to him to show him how a real man cries in his car. Gotta use your whole body. Gotta throw your shoulders and let those sobs ring out, brother. You'll get it, just need practice

Just stopped by to let you know my 18 YO daughter used the word “hasten” in a sentence, correctly and without irony.
Are you working remotely in a heat wave and looking for an unarguable reason to log off for a bit? I offer you, “I have to hose down the alpacas.” It’s serious enough to require immediate action and weird enough so they have to think for a moment, giving you space to thank them and disappear.
I just spent 20 minutes reading community offers of assistance to help with the fire in Colorado. It made me hope again. It made me like humans again. 2/10 do not recommend.
Me, explaining to my husband that his emptying of the vacuum canister after I have been vacuuming for an hour is actually an act of violence. That is my satisfying payoff. Deprive me at your peril.
I don’t post a lot of “Actor Kim Stuff” on here but this turned out quite well. So here… for your amusement.
I’m so mad. I realized today I do not, in fact, align with the Dark Side. I am purely Yoda-coded. I just want to live in a swamp and hit people with sticks if they find me.
The astro-girlies say it’s end times so I went ahead and got the Korean BBQ flavor of Spam at Costco.
Went to see if you'd put in your channel on YouTube and found this instead. Artsy, from seven years back. Might be applicable soon again though. 🤣🤣 youtu.be/EC-NIIZBG3g?...

I HAVE Googled. Even went to the library. Now I’m coming to ask smart people I have no reason to believe have the answer. How do I make good buttercream frosting? I want it mind-bendingly sweet but I don’t want it tasting like powdered sugar. Help me. Then go back to burning the patriarchy.
Throwback to when a TV station in Iceland accidentally aired an episode of Teletubbies with subtitles from the Sopranos 👌🏼
Since 1999, I have not had a houseplant without eventually succumbing to fungus gnats. I’ve tried unbelievable and sustained treatments. Nothing. I would like to share a “life hack”, as the kids say:
It’s my daughter’s very last day of mandated school and I am having many Big Feels so you may present much Bad News but my fairy dragon of a being did a thing that was very hard and today I am proud.
Things I have grotesquely underestimated today: - the odor of the dog’s blanket - the dirt on the light fixtures - the damage a zucchini plant can inflict Hold my calls until further notice.
This is what happens when your government thinks it's more important to arrest activists they personally don't like then it is to make sure starving people are fed. And when that happens it is your duty as a citizen to tear down the systems that allow this and build something better in it's place.
The Ten Commandments are mandated by law in every classroom but how very fucking dare you feed homeless people reason.com/2026/05/20/b...
This is less about the con and more about spreading Greg content. He truly is the goat.
I gave my husband many directions for my week in NY. Unfortunately, I overlooked, “Please, for the love of all that is holy, pick the zucchini.” This is an error I shall not make again.
@kimrhodes.bsky.social Found it. It’s not Mother’s Day until I share this. Thank you for… everything. ❤️
To my babies. Thanks for calling me Mom.
For anyone who has a pang at the word “mother”, I send abundant love. Your experience is absolutely valid and you aren’t wrong for feeling it.
I am in NY, staying with my BFFs very cool child. A comment was made about not using the word “goon” any more. When I inquired, child was reluctant to explain so I looked it up. Then child asked if I was going to erase my browser history. I said no. They nodded and said, “Die like a man. Respect.
Just dropping by to share two thoughts. 1 - I wish strength were determined less by the amount of damage one could inflict and more by the amount of safety one could create. 2 - “wank-stain” really needs to feature more heavily in my vocabulary.
