I don't need a Longchamp bag, I can just finally afford a Longchamp bag 25 years after all the cool girls in college had one and that is not the same thing (but man that medium in olive would be nice for fall...)

Old enough that my Nick @ Nite shows were My Three Sons, Patty Duke, and Donna Reed
the popularity of Nick @ Nite was really funny because you’d be in high school in 2008 with friends who were longtime fans of The Golden Girls
I finished 11/22/62 by Stephen King and my plan was to watch the miniseries but based on what I’ve heard it totally misses the point of what is actually a beautiful story about love and sacrifice so I think I’m just gonna skip it
I'll save you a click: Caitlyn Clark told herself to shut up and dribble

Can’t take to the sea, but turns out taking to the mountains also works
I just went to a Dunkin Donuts and they were out of ALL donuts. ALL OF THEM. At 10am!
This incredibly charismatic, talented guy played a surprisingly large role in several major moments in my life. The second time Stephen and I ever saw each other in person, we went to see The Frames in Minneapolis, and there’s more that maybe I’ll talk about later. This is awful, and I’m so sad.

Two guys in the gym yesterday in Meta glasses and my disgust knows no bounds
Saw Hadestown in the theater and yep that was really spectacular
As a teen in the 90s/college girl in the early aughts, it has taken me a long time to come around to the comfort and style of a giant tee shirt, but I’ve finally embraced it just in time for the return of the baby tee (I won’t be joining, I wish you well my babies).
Sometimes I think about the fact that my first car, brand new in 2000, had a monthly payment of $278.79 for 5 years, an amount I (a teenager who lived with my parents) could reasonably pay while working minimum wage at Target while still affording to have fun with my friends.
If your bakery logo is AI slop I just assume all your baked goods came out of plastic clamshells from Sam’s Club
Picked up Stephen King’s 11/22/63 because I’ve only read one Stephen King book (Carrie) and that was like 25 years ago. This book is a brick let’s gooooo
I love the use of the word “token” in this context because it invokes Pete Hegseth playing skee ball with the armed forces
SCOOP: A little over a month ago, the Pentagon was bragging that half its workforce was using AI. Now the army is saying they’re burning through tokens and need to limit use. For @wired.com www.wired.com/story/the-ar...
Car buying is such a dumb process but dammit if this Toyota salesguy hasn’t read our total disinterest in flimflammery and is making this easy.
Figured it out! Opening line is now “Drive fucking FASTER!”
Cannot figure out the opening to a book that I otherwise have fully planned and thus have not been able to write a word. I just need to find the entrance but it eludes me! I’m walking around the outside of this thing shouting “let me IN goddammit!”

Also, the thing about people being rude to me on here is that… even I don’t know which me I am from one moment to the next. Earnest whimsical poet OR a sentient sawed-off shotgun? It’s a coin toss. We’ll find out together. So, be chill with me. Nice even.
All the best moments of the World Cup happen in spite of FIFA. They remain a rotten, greedy organisation that'll happily destroy the sport for an extra dollar. Shout out to the rowing vikings, traffic coned statues, cross-cultural shirt-swaps, the bars drunk dry & fan community that rose above it.
The fact that a World Cup can come down to penalty kicks proves this is a raggedy ass sport. NHL has it right. Overtimes until someone scores or they all die.
Soccer is officially the whiniest professional sport. That’s why they have to hire these hot ass daddy officials.
Having never watched an entire soccer game I can confidently say Argentina’s performance today does not deserve a World Cup
My only solace in this being such a boring game is that Trump is absolutely crawling out of his skin that he can’t leave
If we’re taking requests, when it finally happens, I wanna hear it from this Muppet
Going to need the Muppets to keep randomly participating in large events without explanation going forward, please and thank you.
