I need to know who the fuck wrote this third-grade-book-report-ass synopsis of SLC Punk. This was from an official listing for a DVD box set of "Sony Classics," ffs.

Tonight I ordered pizza, as a thank you to Past Me for getting my taxes done early so tonight I could just chill. And because I'm self-employed and just paid my taxes, it was Domino's.

Put this on a list titled "Absolute Sarah Bait."

I just added a new service to my editing business: web presence updates! If you're a small business owner with more important things to do than constantly log into Wordpress, I can make sure that the text across your entire web presence is current, correct, and accurately reflects your brand.

I don't know why this American fantasy novel was narrated by an English actor, but she keeps saying "labORatory rat" and it sounds insane. I mean it's also kind of an anachronism, and she used it WAY too many times...but the accent is what's the most weird. Is that even an expression in the UK?

I was in a little local shop the other day and realized that they were playing Midlake's "Trials of Van Occupanther." I complimented the gen Z clerk, and they admitted their playlist had ended and this was served up randomly. But they went and bookmarked it on my recommendation, and so should you.

I never use shit like DoorDash, but tonight we're celebrating and my roommate wasn't feeling up to walking or busing. But if I'd seen these fees in advance, I'd 1000% have walked to the cheaper burger place by our house instead of 'treating' us to @lilwoodys.bsky.social. This is insanely predatory.

I just read a fantasy novel set in a version of 1909 Europe where magic and faeries exist, and one of the characters used the expression "firing on all cylinders." So arguably, I guess that was an anachronism AND an anatopism!

Evergreen post, tbh.

Pretty sure I saw Porky Meat Hunks open for Less Than Jake in 1996.

You can take my serial commas when you pry them from my cold, dead hands.

Just noticed that the default "Jewish holidays" calendar in Google only shows seven days of Passover, which is either very ignorant or very progressive of them.

It's so easy to just say "Did you know" before offering some information you think someone doesn't know. And yet!

They pay $34 for burgers. Should they be allowed to enter the library?

Jonathan the Tortoise, who did NOT die

Some asshole posts a crypto scam on the shambling corpse of Twitter, and major news outlets report it without literally one attempt at journalism. Does anyone have a full list of outlets who reported the Jonathan the Tortoise death hoax, so we can remember never to trust them again?

I keep seeing graphics that are like "How to wish your Jewish friends a happy Passover" and then it's 10 phrases I've never heard of and none of them are "chag sameach" or "gut yontif."

Time for the annual relisten!

Dead Media continues its festival run with an international screening! Next up is Bloody Mirror in Georgia. The nation, not the state. Thanks to all who continue to support the film. Much more to come! Info on this screening: www.livescreeningsfilmfestival.com/film/dead-me...

If I could once in my life make charoset without getting shreds of apple all over my entire kitchen, dayeinu.

My browser has been having issues playing audio lately, so when the 'cast member' knelt down my brain started in with "Alas, poor Olaf! I knew him, Hans: a fellow of infinite frost, of most excellent flurries." 💀❄️

That surreal moment where you forgot about sending an email to a certain podcast, and then they read it on air, but you also forgot you sent it from your burner email and so they thank a character from your favorite book in middle school for writing in 😆

I'm giving up videos that have someone making an exaggerated expression in the thumbnail for Lent.

In case anyone else needs this! I've saved the image to my roll and the alt text to my drafts.

I've seen some really execrable alt text recently from people who were clearly trying to do the right thing, but failing miserably. Can anyone recommend a good article or guide to writing useful alt text that I can keep handy?

If you’re in line to block bsky’s ai bullshit stay in line!

Do you realize how much you have to fuck up to make the Catholic Church look like the injured party?

This account was conveniently already blocked by a list I use, but make sure it's blocked for you too!

There is literally no excuse for still supporting HP and also "is your brain in read-only mode" is an incredible burn.

THANK YOU. People been trying to gaslight me that podcast just means video now and I'm not having it.

Hey #Jewsky: If you or anyone you know is looking for a casual virtual seder (April 1 @ 5pm Pacific), ping me.

Today I learned that the Scottish surname Dalziel is pronounced literally like "DL," and that's the sort of thing that can make audiobooks very confusing.

Joanne is spending her Potter money kicking little girls out of the Girl Guides. What is she trying to say here, that little trans girls are predators trying to sneak into the guides so they can do pinecone crafts & study nature? How rotten can a soul be. Mold has more morality than her

I am pleased to announce that I successfully made a @blackforager.bsky.social recipe for the first time! This magnolia syrup is so nice in seltzer; I'm thrilled that I can now enjoy my favorite tree with more senses 🥰

This is the first Camp Fire candy season since Brown & Haley betrayed me personally by ending manufacturing of the candies I grew up selling. Plz recommend your favorite brand of gooey mint patties, thank you.

I was wondering why Lumo, the unhinged 2025 Eurovision mascot, had suddenly breached containment and filled my feed with normies having hysterics. Apparently it's because the new 2026 mascot was announced -- and it's also bad, but still an order of magnitude less fucked up than Lumo.

Heard some podcasters talking about music and one of them compared an artist to Jelly Roll, and I was like "Wow, cool that they're talking about one of the first recorded jazz musicians in history, but I can't see how he relates to Eurovision." 🤔

Made my first corned beef and cabbage yesterday and it was NOT a success, so I was going to make a joke about staying in my cultural lane -- but it turns out corned beef is not a traditional Irish meal, and Irish-Americans discovered it from Jewish delis. So actually, I failed my own people! 😭

This song recommendation stopped my doomscrolling and propelled me out of bed. I would like to request y'all suggest any other song you know that rips and rules and owns and fucking fucks, so I may possibly repeat the effect in future.

God, I wish KJ Charles would write another book like Death in the Spires. It's kind of everything I want from a book rightnow...and I'm not just saying that because of the Gaudy Night parallels.

I have never felt as old and tired as I did just now, watching an episode of Pretty Gay where Catherine implied that Avril Lavigne was the first person to wear a necktie with a tank top. I was wearing neckties to school in 1993 ffs.

Ah man, I forgot all about Pi Day. At least I'm prepared for stabbing tomorrow.

Staring out the window, watching the snow as it gently falls on the cherry blossoms, I murmur to myself in a funny little computer voice, "Spring is here and it's colder than usual."

You can do it! I believe in all of you 💜

Love how a silly riff on a podcast 10 years ago became an aphorism I still occasionally say to encourage myself. @markmcconville.bsky.social is a real one.

Just looked up when the Mariners' season begins for literally the first time in 40+ years of living in Seattle, so I know when to start asking for one on Buy Nothing.

How are y'all getting fun replies on youraislopbores.me, everyone who answers me there acts like they're at a minimum wage job they hate.

Me: I don't care about the personal lives of artists I like, that's none of my business. The internet: Miriana Conte is dating a gay Maltese footballer named Jade Flask. Me:

Watching UMK now because I was busy last weekend, and I cannot believe this Mumford and Sons toothpaste commercial named themselves "Handsome." Incredible. They're like if KAJ was five Mormon brothers with no sense of humor. #umk

Just checking in with all the other Sarahs who are Dropout subscribers -- how are we feeling about Jacob Wysocki looking directly into camera and saying our name? Anyone need to be talked down from a parasocial ledge?
