those of you who are afraid of aging, please understand that one of the huge blessings of middle age is arriving at this exact station

A sleeby, chonky vampire. Just a sign of living a good life.

I've seen people say that getting attached to ChatGPT is like "believing the stripper really loves you", but that's not true. It's more like believing that the dryer personally composed that little jingle on a lonely sockless night just to win your affections.

Tomorrow ✨ November 26 ✨ New jewelry designs join the Holiday Drop! These three designs will be available as necklaces and earrings! #dnd #dice #ttrpg

Congratulations, you've summed up everything I share with friends and acquaintances, lol (To the point where people I have known for decades are like, "are you into women?" "No, but you are, and I know your taste.")

Day 3 garbage sleep and I have therapy later. I would reschedule, but I had to do that last week when we euthanized my cat.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling. 🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states. This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Ugh. I hate doing these, but I gotta fix a jam that I can’t seem to own jam on my own. www.gofundme.com/f/help-rikki...

Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

As far as bricks go, I think if there was a way to improve in their design we would've been there by now, what with using them for the past 5000 years or so

Device…hoarding. Because you don’t go get a new one while yours is still fine. Apparently I am also practicing car hoarding, house hoarding, husband hoarding, dog hoarding, computer hoarding, furniture hoarding and art hoarding.

If you are concerned about people swiping books from your little free library and reselling those books, I ask you to go to your local used bookstore and sell a book Okay? Understand? Alright, next question

Nov 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Reps privately push ban on trans care in ACA/Obamacare as part of moving any subsidy deal forward. It was stripped from the last ACA deal. This one would hurt perhaps 500k trans ppl among the 20m who need Obamacare subsidies. Even blue states would be impacted.

So turns out in the UK, it’s only a crime to sexually harass a child over the course of several weeks if she’s NOT transgender. Live and learn.

Just like UBI & Medicare for All would be much better uses of taxpayer dollars.

I need to get ready for bed, but they keep DOING this.

And audiobooks! And comics and graphic novels and movies, albums, magazines... Just use the damn library, your taxes already pay for it!

I saw some guy say “STOP CALLING WICKED ‘FANFIC’ IT’S ~~~LITERARY REVISIONISM~~~” which sure is a weird way to say fanfic

Did my freaking dogs write this?

Want to read my books for free? Easy. Get them from a library. I get paid, you're supporting the ecosystem, and you get to read them in print. Everyone wins. Instead, my work has been stolen over 50,000 times (!) on pirate sites.

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!

You know what, I'm just gonna re-up this post

I’m so tired of this. Its exhausting. We’re all broke and the people who steal books don’t care. I’d bet a whole American dollar that saying “Please don’t steal from us” on social media is basically a challenge to double down and yoinks! away! on our titles. At least then I’d get a dollar.

99% of authors I know have a day job and/or a side hustle. Next.

DOGE is disbanding after an estimated 600,000+ people died in other countries because of USAID cuts to lifesaving food and medication. Elon Musk will go down as one of history's' most prolific mass murderers of children. Anyone driving a Tesla is supporting a nazi.

Me: Gotta get ready for bed. Luna: *flops and asks for belly rubs* Me: ...nevermind

"But they're different, they're trans, don't go to church, don't look like me, don't engage with the world the way I do?" So what? And I say this with all due disrespect, why are so many people committed to setting their own life on fire to prevent someone else from having the bare minimum. Wake up

I was raised by my grandparents. My grandfather grew up Dickensian- street- urchin- poor on the streets in Manhattan; fought in WWII; and then got a good union civil service job that allowed him to retire after 30 years with a pension at age 61. The loss of that historic connection is a problem now.

lol I went from and iPhone 7 to an iPhone 16 and I intend to make this one last just as long My Cintiq is at least 15 years old, Wacom doesn't even have its drivers easily accessible anymore My PCs last about 10 years on average I AM IMMUNE TO YOUR PLEAS, CNBC

YOU COME FOR ME LIKE THIS ON MY OWN FEED?!? *attempts to close cupboard over mountain of rustic pottery*

Me: Defining people by what decade they were born in is so silly, generations are a fake concept Also me, turning up the car radio: AND I DON’T WANT THE WORLD TO SEE ME, ‘CAUSE I DON’T THINK THAT THEY’D UNDERSTAND, WHEN EVERYTHING’S MADE TO BE BROKEN—

Hey yall not what I wanted to do on my birthday but let it be clear "Death of the artist" is all well & good but you cannot Seperate the art from the artist when the artist is still alive, a terf & every penny they recieve reinforces their beliefs & is used to actively harm Trans folks! Let it Go!

This is the way. A lot of writers' block stems from the belief that you MUST write scenes in sequence.

evergreen

Eldest Cat: *making the highest drama, loudest possible noises for no reason while I'm trying to drink hot tea and type* Me: You know who would love to be screamed at while they lie quietly reading? It's the husband. He told me so himself.

Just saw a reel from a southern white guy that said you weren't masculine if you drank anything other than black coffee and I would kindly ask if we could STOP MAKING ARBITRARY SHIT UP TO FUCK UP OUR BOYS.

In the way of the world, the dryer is making Noises at us.

On this day in 1991, #TheAddamsFamily was released in cinemas! The movie was a box-office smash, grossing over $110m, gaining a #GoldenGlobes nomination for Huston as Morticia and the winning the 1991 "Best #Horror Film of the Year" award from the Horror Hall of Fame.

1) good, they should be prosecuted, they are responsible for countless deaths 2) always very funny when these people realize the extent to which their billionaire patrons could not possibly give less of a shit about them

You needed plausible deniability because admitting you cared about something, ANYTHING, was cringe

Actual photo of me getting dragged into the Christmas season.

I can't announce to people I'm a safe person. That's not up for me to determine. But I hope my brand, consistently, has been you can duck behind me when you need to and I've got you.
