Thinking about the perfect version of the Riddler outside of comics and coming to the the conclusion it's one that sounds and acts exactly like Stewart from Letterkenny

I just think fried shrimp should be less delicious so I didn't have to eat them.

Fellow authors: Without any context, what's the first line of your current WIP? ~~A long time ago in a faraway land…~~ [Let us use markdown formatting on bsky 2k26 petition]

Absolutely wild to me how much some of the knitted things in the Knitting & Crochet section of RtV are going for when the most complicated/hardest to knit one is barely over a hundred bucks: www.32auctions.com/organization... No accounting for taste I guess etc etc etc

The only thing better than the Boston 4th of July fireworks are the fireworks you sometimes see on New Year's Eve at midnight, driving through the middle of nowhere on an interstate.

Taking horsemanship lessons is giving me a lot of thoughts about the human brain and mental illness and therapy but I am having a ridiculous amount of trouble putting them into like a cohesive string of thoughts.

*laughs in a year and a half unemployed*

Modern Family started airing in September 2009, when gay marriage was legal in only 5 states. I would argue that it very much did have a profound cultural impact: normalizing American mainstream audiences to the idea of gay couples as cringe suburbanite parents.

Wait, Vatican II is a real thing? Not a shitposting thing?

They should make doublestuf bullseyes.

They are the least chill organisation you have ever met in your entire life, more drama than the Vatican, but they’re not transphobic

We shouldn’t have taken his bucket.

Now that I am watching Widow's Bay, my favorite thing about the WTNV guy being upset about them copying his fog is that they are *clearly* riffing off Stephen King stories. Like not even subtly. Like, bro, did you rip of The Mist? Just asking for a friend.

not gay as in happy queer as in collective liberation for everyone means pushing beyond a world where interconnected oppressive systems have their hooks in anybody and solidarity is the only way home and also, sometimes, fuck you

I do not understand how people know what they're going to want to eat a day (or more!!) in advance. Like, if I'm on an X food kick, okay, I can reliably know what to take out of the freezer up until I am suddenly off that kick. But man. I have been trying to eat some frozen korean style bbq beef

Where do I buy cotton candy ice cream??

It is 3AM and I am awake because there are lightning bugs out. I now have like fifty pictures of darkness and zero pictures with lightning bugs flashing. I will not be defeated.

The news coming out of Venezuela is fucking horrifying. Over five hundred confirmed dead, with fifty thousand missing. I sent some money to WCK and Direct Relief since those were the orgs with concrete response plans yesterday.

One thing I do miss about twitter is right now my timeline would be flooded with posts about the earthquake in Venezuela.

Definitely 7 so I can go visit @snowlikeash.bsky.social and @persisting.bsky.social down where they're at now!

I think having one of those tiny excavators would be really neat.

My husband picked this up at Logan Airport over the weekend for someone else but I stole it because, well, what it says on the tin.

They should have two Lee Shaws at once in the same place. I think that would be neato. esp if Keiko were there too. Just sayin'.

Having a lot of feelings tonight about how US society is set up with the assumption that if you are an adult you have a partner to rely on for everything.

I got so distracted talking about ticks that I forgot I came to bsky to talk about how I'm taking up bobbin lace. I almost quit because my cloth stitch bookworm looks horrible, but it turns out torchon lace is so much easier than a wholeass bookmark in cloth stitch. I'm gonna make so much lace.

With alt text, because this is important.

One of the ways moving to Finland has been *bizarre* is that it has 3rd places galore. I didn't realize how I haven't seen old people or kids (sans parents) hanging out in groups for ages. This is a street intersection with free hammocks man. wtf what have we done. we used to be a society lol

Rod literally created the Twilight Zone because he took a teleplay about racism that kept getting rejected, changed the victims to aliens, and execs were like “Neat! Now THIS is good stuff!” Once he saw producers were blind to social metaphor if you add a lil sci-fi, boom, TV’s greatest was born

Ooooh, we are a little less than $800 from the stretch goal of BUYING MORE STORIES!!! And we have 9 days left! 👀 I am LOVING the stories I've read and y'all. I want an infinite budget 😩 so help make this SLIGHTLY easier on me 😂 www.backerkit.com/c/projects/m...

IT'S WHOSE. WHOSE!! NOT WHO'S!!! THIS IS LIKE THE THIRD TIME I'VE SEEN THIS THIS MORNING WHAT THE FUCK

I know exactly how I want to sit in my car while I wait for my dog to come out of the vet but not the flexibility to get there :(

Is Roman Holiday a romance?

Magneto: A war with humans will fix everything. Change my mind. Xavier: Take off your helmet. Magneto: >:(

everybody over 40 is saying “LiveJournal” and honestly, yes ::pours one out::

Guess who turned four today!!

Evening-ish reskeet! There are 4 boys left, the blue boy has a tentative home and the girl has a home. More pics in the thread, and at this point all of them are friendly and beg for attention when someone comes in the room! Kitten socialization success!!

I have hit the point where the thought of writing yet another cover letter for yet another company makes me want to test my flying skills.

My forehead sunburn is peeling but like. Unsatisfyingly. :(

This is like the fourth attached tick I've had to pull off this year. Usually I have to pull of *zero*. What the fuck.

I do not trust people who casually deploy "trailer trash" as an insult. Our interests are not aligned.

I thought it might be a treadle machine, which was Dedication, but oh my god a hand crank is even wilder. Love it.

It’s not hyperbole that part of what kept the queer liberation movement going in the Reagan era was the partying part of the “bury your friends in the morning, protest in the afternoon, and dance at night” schedule. Without joy there is no air left to fight

Is it even possible to make a good Michael Crichton movie in general? Was Jurassic Park a fluke?

Did you know you can just buy pez candy?? No fucking around with a dinky little dispenser, just a wholeass 3lb bag of unwrapped pez.

Mid-day reskeet! Check out the whole thread for individual pictures. The girl (purple) has already been claimed, so there's just five boys left.

Post a robot that’s not from Star Wars or Transformers.

we aren't in a "fanfic recession" but that someone decided to use these terms to complain reveals the real problem; a lot of 'fans' are thinking like shareholders and executives, devaluing creative work, refusing to support the artists they have, and looking at everything with the lens of profit

New York sex worker here to confirm that this is absolutely 💯% a type of weird Midtown rich old guy shit

Why on earth did I decide to start knitting tops for myself when I was in the middle of losing a shitload of weight??? None of this is going to fit.
