The next time you trip on an electrical cord and knock the iron off the ironing board, do not – I repeat do NOT – try and catch it.

Same energy

Rainy Sundays were made for chilling on the couch with your biblically accurate cactus that you grew from a tiny cutting your bestie smuggled in from South America.

Considering getting a boyfriend. I don’t necessarily want to be in a relationship but getting invited to brunch sounds fun and it seems like a requirement in gay middle age. Any takers? I travel a lot for work and will maybe be able to see you once a week/every other week. Sound good?

Sometime in the past 5 years I became a really intentional person when it comes reaching out to make plans. If I’m asking your availability, it’s because I fully intend to see you if you’re free. I wasn’t always like this and that’s helpful to remember when someone drops the ball.

Took this photo today. Leaving first thing in the morning before I can get to any of your recommendations, but I had a good enough time. Solid lil bookstore in there.

Zach Cregger is the savior of modern horror.

Holding onto the idea that Lady Gaga is a Madonna clone is such Bette Midler erasure

My upstairs neighbors moved out two months ago and the landlord still hasn’t replaced their chirping detector. It chirps at hours both respectable and disrespectful.

Really wish smoke detectors that have reached their expiration would chirp at sensible hours and not at 5am

Ice breaker activities always seemed so goofy to me growing up. We were so good at just playing around that the structured activity was more of an annoyance. …but now I’m 40 and a month into a 12-team trivia league where I have yet to talk to anyone outside my own team. 2 truths and a lie anyone?

What if the foundations of The Beast’s castle were also former servants and when true love broke the curse the whole structure came crumbling down? Is that something?

Literally HOW did this sketch not make it to air??

I know NYC was all in on the knicks this year but opening SNL season 52 with a sports host was a bold choice. Seasons should always open and close with a bonafide banger of a host and that is rarely someone whose biggest skills are on the court/field.

If someone hasn’t played a Pokémon game since Red/Blue in the 90s, do you think there’s any point diving back in? If yes, where would you have them start?

Not sure how significant it is but each of these albums came into my life before the streaming era became ubiquitous. I was also (arguably) a child for each one with more time and more curiosity.

My favorite thing about living in a not-quite-gentrified neighborhood is that I can leave anything on the curb and it will disappear. And not just small things! Carried down a scratched coffee table that wasn’t moving on fb marketplace and it vanished by the time I got back from lunch.

I truly do not understand how someone reconciles the cognitive dissonance required to be right wing and an X-Men fan, a Star Trek fan, or a Christian.

The beginning of this week was gonna be my chance to get back to the gym after a marathon of work trips before my parents come to visit but instead I decided to get my flu shot and covid booster and now I don’t want to move.

As it turns out, “chemical castration” does not refer to the use of lye and other acids to disable a man’s reproductive organs. How disappointing.

Has anyone stopped to consider that “gay death” at age 30 might be an actual thing? Have I been a zombie for the past decade? It would explain so much.

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

TAYDOLF?!??? Sorry to post like a Gen Z but I cannotttttttttt with that

A new book era begins

“Fruit Fly” was a delight all the way through. Really satisfying and unsettling ending. I can’t believe it was a debut. Bravo, Josh Silver.

a few weeks ago i saw a post that said "im not smart enough to be surrounded by so many people dumber than me" and it crosses my mind more frequently than i could have ever predicted

One of my coworkers was catching me up on DWTS yesterday and she mentioned that one of the contestants is a paraplegic. It was this guy – 2x ParaLYMPIAN Ezra French.

Ezra Frech is hot as hell

This whole iced coffee debate has been raging over on threads. I shudder to think the numbers this is going on LinkedIn. These little corporate culture/obedience checks are exhausting. It’s a caffeinated beverage – why are we acting like the candidate walked in topless?

Kai Ryssdal@kairyssdal.bsky.social · 2w ago

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.

My 9 most influential video games. Most of these I wouldn’t replay but each of them taught me something new about what a video game could be.

8bitMario@8bitmario.bsky.social · 3w ago

My 9 games - this was harder than I thought and I left out so many games I wanted to include. Also didn’t want to put 2 Final Fantasy games, but both were too influential to me not to mention. My9games.net/en

Put this picture of me holding the last bell pepper of the season on my regular old IG story and some mutual I’ve never spoken to before replied with “damn. I bet you’re so hung.” Like, shoot your shot but maybe also read a room? This is a produce post.

All this hubbub over the new Fire Emblem game for switch 2 inspired me to finally buy an older one (Three Houses) for my OG switch and I’m kicking myself for not discovering this series sooner. It’s like Final Fantasy Tactics on speed!
