I’ve decided the way I’m going to survive it being cold and dark at 5 PM is pretending I live in a Nordic country where it’s also cold and dark most of the day but they have cute knitwear and universal healthcare

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Did this for Era and boy is it right

Young refuseniks burn their IOF draft papers in the middle of Tel Aviv They refuse to serve in the Israeli Occupation Forces, and are willing to go to military jail for their position. The new generation of refuseniks is supported by the older, many of them spent months in jail already

Thinking about the crowd coming out of hypnosis at the end of KDH and being like “did they just *kill* the Saja Boys”

Trying to resist the urge to go to all my friends and say “hey, you like things that are good, you should watch KPop Demon Hunters”

Every so often my sleeping mind decides it’s time to have a sexy dream about Beetlejuice. I’m not complaining per se, just confused

If you see this, post a blue character

I miss this era so much

Behold my cat

Lotta people who have spent their comfortable, unbothered lives smugly insisting they "Don't do politics" are about to find out politics have no issue doin' them.

if the united states ever has even a hope of recovering we have to destroy the idea of american individualism. "they don't owe you anything" we owe each other everything actually

At this point money counts more than actual votes

Saw a comment on Facebook about “parents’ rights” in regards to using children’s parent-given names rather than their preferred names in school. The thing I think this type of person fundamentally misunderstands is that children aren’t owned by their parents. They’re people.

I think having to be anxious about some health stuff AND fascism stuff is simply too much

This section really got me. For the expertise, they still need experts.

Democrats "may find themselves quickly back in business if they can simply swallow their pride and follow Bernie’s lead."

Checking in on resisting. youtu.be/Ed-rNEkuhBY?...

I hate to get controversial on here, I know everyone’s sick of politics, but chicken dumpling >>> chicken noodle

Uh oh the Trump administration accidentally added us to their group chat

A thing I also don't see people talk about when it comes to this take is that if the states did break up we would likely instantly go to war with each other

Sometimes I look at my sleeping cat and feel my inner Elmyra Duff surfacing, like hey I wanna hug you like a plushie. And then I have to accept that as a fantasy because I like my limbs remaining attached to my body

Couldn’t we at least have gotten the fun kind of lunatics

Hell yeah I'm gonna be a 40-year-old magical girl

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

And to be so very clear, JKR has openly stated that the money she makes from Harry Potter (in all its forms, right now) goes directly to conservative and specifically anti-trans causes. Do not financially engage with Harry Potter. Don't even engage with it for free. It's a Faustian IP, do not.

Listen, I see and love all you Jayvik supporters but where is the Vander/Silco in this joint

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available? It's literally called Library Extension.

I’m going to have to be dragged back to an office kicking and screaming after spending the last five years working mostly in bed next to a softly snoring cat

I really love that "succeeding in finishing an authored experience designed to be finished and enjoyed" is such a marker of resilience and character. I'm going to eat a meal at a high-end restaurant and call myself a survivalist.

Dear Manager, 1. I drank a whiskey drink. 2. I drank a vodka drink. 3. I drank a lager drink. 4. I drank a cider drink. 5. I sang the songs that remind me of the good times; I sang the songs that remind me of the better times.

Don't just listen to players. If given the option, they'll optimize the game out of their games, and the story out of their stories. It's our job to filter information and data and feedback into good work, and while we'll sometimes miss it's better than blindly following surveys.

This is what I mean when I say to just make that thing you want to make, even if it’s garbage, especially today in the world of AI-generated dreck. One person’s absolute dogshit passion project will be 1000000% more powerful than a million auto-generated books thrown onto Amazon.

I take back everything I’ve ever said or thought about it being overly simplistic for a villain’s motive to just be ruling/destroying the world

Swap Harding for Neve and this is me

I’m gonna start signing emails this way

Honestly probably like a 2, I am chubby and baby-faced and midwest nice

Do not ever correct me on here. I'm not wrong, and if I am then it's because it's fun for me

@butchcraft.bsky.social sent a picture of their cat so I decided he needed to be holding several things. #catsofbluesky
