Your memories are yours. You know what happened. You can trust your narration of your life. You know what makes you, you.

ok stay with me on this one... sometimes you have writer's block because you're not in Text World. you have to read until you're back in Text World. if you don't read, you're writing in the real world. sentences won't feel right or they'll look goofy. not in Text World though

Everybody thinks 'https://' stands for 'hypertext transfer protocol secure' but it actually stands for 'head to this place, sucka' followed by a colon and two laser sounds

“I haven't heard from you in a while. I guess you're just busy.” Nope. I’m not doing this again. We have equal access to communication devices. (Mostly 😭) I will stay strong. I will not be guilted!! I will not take on the responsibility to sustain the relationship!!! (Happy 2026, new year, new me)

CESARE MY BELOVED

I HAVE A PHONE AGAIN!!

I need you to know I love you still. (I don't like me.)

I can’t be the first person to have made this joke. But, and this is important, I can be the most annoying

I know I was an angry kid, but I scraped and scratched for this. Now I’m stuck holding a bomb with a fuse that’s still lit.

hey I did something scary (applied to do something I don't feel qualified to do even though I'm super qualified to do it) please clap

POV: Your cat wants to go to bed but you’re BUSY

My sign today.

the Dutch resistance was big on the whole "they're going to kill us no matter what, so we will make them do it in public" which feels like a spiritual cousin to this sign ✊

people can read what they want to read, but the idea that M/M is a misogyny-free wonderland and F/F cannot be is simply not aligned with reality - many lesbian and sapphic writers do queernorm fantasy or happy contemporaries, just like the rest of romance does

For the record, we saw this shit early in romance, too. There’s a reason @devinharnois.bsky.social had to make a button saying something like “M/M is for gay men, too.”

I'm not sure how many more times we need to see/hear about violent men calling women "bitch" as they assault & even murder them before we accept that misogynistic slurs aren't neutral.

I’m starting to realize why I flinch whenever someone uses the word “bitch” and am feeling kind of retroactively vindicated every time someone told me I was being overly sensitive

And you're brave, so I'm brave, or I'm trying anyway. Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat.

My kingdom for an option to say “just send it through Canada Post bc I live in an area that commercial shipping deems unprofitable so Canada Post has by far the most robust infrastructure and that’s why we can’t leave essential services to the private sector” bc no one can tell me where my phone is!

The Cardiff Lions do an annual Drag Rugby charity match for children’s charities and it’s as beautiful as you imagined

maybe heading towards some of those weeks where decades happen

Did someone order ice skating ducks?

I‘m not looking for literature, I‘m looking for people and specifically scholars with expertise. Apparently I need to reiterate that judging from the comments.. thanks for your help!

I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure what I'm looking for. A voice on a phone that you rarely answer anymore.

when it's definitely going the way you thought it would

"shitting on ai makes you sound like a Luddite" oh okay, thank you! Luddites were cool as hell

Evergreen post

I am observing behaviors from the Heated Rivalry fandom that make the Spanish Inquisition look like a friendly door-to-door signature collecting operation

I got a refurbished phone to replace it but it's been lost in the mail for the last week and attempting to chase it down is a level of hell Crowley can only wish he thought up.

Sometimes you come across a paragraph in a book that perfectly encapsulates a moment in your own brain, like the writer was *there*. This is from "The Staircase In The Woods" by @chuckwendig.bsky.social - Del Rey H/C pp 63 para 2. /1

I still hear the people calling me a radfem man-hater who needed me to say hashtag not all men every time I opened my mouth even though they weren't listening to what I said after that anyway. or the people explaining misandry to me. or having to actually talk about how patriarchy hurts men too. etc

I prefer to save talking till I know what I’m talking about.

The house, like the girl, is unlovely.

The phrase "they do not want power they want to endlessly critique power" has never been more relevant

I know that I'm introspective when broken, but I've been spending most of my nights here alone and that doesn't scare me like it did a year ago.

I will read every interview with Heated Rivalry writer and director Jacob Tierney because his quotes are truly a reporter's dream: www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

I sang "don't you put it in your mouth" to a younger coworker the other day to a completely blank stare

Probably my favorite thing about kicking a task down the road is that there are no repercussions for it

I'm not sure who I am, but it's great to be here.

“The Pitt” fuckin rocks man!!!!!

the YELL I let out at the end of the first episode of THE PITT. this is what I miss (and jokingly hate) about week-by-week television shows. LET IT COOK.

I'm sick of seeing ghosts.

Nothing so perfectly proves the concept of whiteness as a social construct than the reality that white people who stand up for minorities forfeit some of the protections that whiteness afforded them.

there are people who are saying it's a privilege to look away and/or keep emotional distance from a tragedy & to them I say it's a privilege to not know the way that trauma destroys you and your family for generations. signed, the grandkid of WWII survivors who made her promise to never look away

Folks can make their own choices, but passively witnessing atrocities through a computer screen is not taking action.
