LRP: my mom's favorite painting is O'Keefe's Oriental Poppies. I'd seen pictures of it - flowers, okay, whatever. For her birthday one year we went to Toronto to see it in person. I felt like Cameron in the museum in Ferris Bueller.

All they want to do is stay home, jerk off to A.I., and die.

no bag policies are fucking sexist!! Where am I supposed to put my tampons without pockets or a bag?!

Absolutely love this . Illustrators need to get it right! #knitsky

One of my favorite local restaurants is across from a Starbucks that strong-armed the town into a lot of concessions and the kitchen staff is currently drinking and smoking on the their patio after the local fest and you know what, hell yeah

I was once at Jaleo in Disney Springs and witnessed a waiter excitedly offer to start all of his tables with a "special Spanish bread" and when they agreed, he'd bring out the $15 pan con tomate. There was no bread service at the restaurant. I was in awe of his hustle lmao

I'll always be glad I met you, rural juror

"Showing favoritism" is exactly the line being used in the MAGA Pittsford village FB group too. It's so funny when you can tell exactly what Fox News is saying without even watching because all the little robots update their new talking points simultaneously

I read Yesteryear and I mostly liked it but HOW DO YOU WRITE A BOOK ABOUT A TRADWIFE AND NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON FLAGGED THIS SENTENCE

Did you know CBS still has their feedback form live and you can select 60 Minutes as the reason for your feedback? www.cbs.com/showfeedback/

I regret to inform you all that there is a small but STRONG contingent of tradwife right wingers in every needlework sphere

Even my most AI obsessed coworker just said using AI to make slides takes more time than doing them yourself and another said you can never get consistent output and it won't follow brand templates C'MON BUBBLE

Sometimes it feels like the craft world is slowly being enshittified just like everything else but in some rare good news, Swarovski is back on the menu HELL YEAH www.harmanbeads.com/swarovski-br...

Rochester is now a real city because we officially have too many fucking wannabe influencers on Instagram making clickbait videos

How could they tell them apart from the rest of the town?

the backbone of the entire present day global economy is "collecting rent on pareidolia"

INCREDIBLE

>wake up actually ready to be productive because I made my to-do list for the week last night >go to edit slides, chrome wants update >no google drive pages will load after update >reboot computer >chrome fixed, slack wants update >slack updates, outlook freezes >reboot outlook

oh well if candy crush businessman mel morris says so

Yes, I do find it very funny that New Jersey is getting big red and mad over NYC claiming ownership of MetLife stadium for the World Cup, yet if you call them the New Jersey Jets or New Jersey Giants, they get even redder and madder

I keep being told to be nice to these backwater cousin fucker flyover shitholes because there are nice people there despite their reputation and then they keep turning around and living right up to their reputation

-maxxing and mogging riffs are fundamentally unfunny you should consume less trash and perhaps even go outside

Okay what the fuck is happening in Pittsford and Perinton? Half the traffic lights are out, my friend heard sirens, I have no power, wires down, dangerous condition at the railroad crossing...

happy birthday america, i got you the corpse of a 30 year old one hit wonder shuffling around in front of a fight pit next to a giant hole in the ground that used to be the east wing all at the pleasure of an octogenarian rapist with dementia

Coworker is showing her AI prompt for making ONE slide for a deck and it is 8 pages long

Wegmans employee called me ma'am 😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫

I have been gluten free since January 1st, 2025. And I really didn't drink beer that much anymore before going GF. But after too many ballpark visits with no beer, I was CRAVING one

types of mutual on social media: * your buddy you riff with all the time * someone you used to riff with but are pretty sure has you muted at this point * person you admire who followed you back somehow and gives you a jumpscare every time they like a post * we interacted one time years ago

Just booked the trip to be out of the country on July 4th 🫡 I want nothing to do with this jingoistic bullshit, I will be getting a bespoke tour of a local gin distillery in Toronto while staying club level at a very nice hotel like the east coast elitist that I am

Hell, I know a woman who isn't officially divorced because she'd have to refinance the house to get him off the mortgage and she doesn't want to lose her interest rate lol

Songs I have gotten pulled over to now includes The Bad Touch by the Bloodhound Gang, The Walker by Fitz and the Tantrums, and tonight, Abracadabra by Lady Gaga 😳

this website is not beating the allegations

When we lived in California my mom worked at Hoffman fabrics. They imported batik fabric that was air dried in the sun. If it wasn't up to their quality they would just give it away to employees. My mom would bring home BOLTS of the most gorgeous hand dyed fabric for free.

Do NOT disrespect my Erie Canal by comparing it to data centers! 😤😤😤

This place is opening like, five locations in under a year in my metro area where you can't swing a dead cat without hitting an indie coffee shop. I give them maybe another year before locations start closing.

I keep getting scam letters offering an extended warranty on the engine of my electric car and I'm almost tempted to call the number and see how long I can play dumb to string them along

As a New Yorker who is now gluten free...sometimes you just gotta accept things aren't for you any more or aren't going to be the same. If any breakfast place has gluten free bagels/bread, it's a pleasant surprise, not an expectation

Went winery tasting yesterday, today was $5 tickets to the local MiLB team behind home plate where they won with a walk off home run. I have eaten nachos twice in two days. I don't wanna go back to work 😂😭
