have received RuPaul Bracket Program lip sync presentation to the Barbra Streisand/Donna Summer "No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)" and I need to register to you all that this is one of the most important songs in the entirety of modern music and its appearance in bracket is. it is a Revelation. tysm

I love listening to 5'1" lady entrepreneurs talk on their Bluetooth headsets

Happy Pride to "Barbra's Baby PPAF," a bubblegum pink sport of the "Lasting Love" tea rose introduced by Barbra Streisand

if anybody that's ever used a GFM to raise $ for unexpected expenses (brain injury in my case) has some tips they want to share, can you DM me please? looks increasingly like I will need expensive and lengthy rehab + intensive care before I can return to work and I'm intimidated about doing it wrong

I have way more experience than most with the "okay so. I get it. I do. but" of health care in this country so I'm not always surprised when a certain answer is just utterly unatttainable by any means. but that said. I do think they should be able to tell me directly how many staples are in my skull

not super photogenic with the brain bleed/staples, but I have had dear friends with me night and day for a week since the crash, had a very wonderful Carol Kane but Minnesotan (extremely complimentary) clone come in to help us organize and sort out my apartment for me, and feeling very very grateful

so the 1972 CBS live television broadcast "Liza With A 'Z'" does actually hit equally hard if not harder with a traumatic brain injury so there is that bit of good news to report

hi online friends! I was in a bad bike accident on Sunday, I've got a very long road ahead of me with traumatic brain injury/brain bleed but I've got friends by my side and thanks to heroic work from Hennepin County Medical Center physicians and nurses I expect to be ok. miss y'all!!

I got McDonalds breakfast (sausage egg & cheese McGriddle combo with a large coffee and exchanged 5,000 McDonalds points for a Sausage McMuffin with egg) and went to Menards already today

you know what. let's look at some clips of Rosie Perez dancing on Soul Train. this is the good shit. this is it. this is the STUFF

the pavement condition isn't always great, the markings even less often so, but the way Minneapolis has used its generous Midwestern geometry to give you *some* bikeway from about everywhere to about everywhere makes it such a joy to just hop on your bike and ride until you're tired

I often do something a little different making deviled eggs, but I'm a staunch traditionalist/"don't you DARE get cute with this"-ist about the looks, haaaaas to be that bright yellow, muuust be globbed in with the back of a fork (fuck a piping bag), etc.

doing a "never got around to this one" with a series called "Search Party" and is the theme song really Purity Ring

Daiso $2 Item I Love Alert: this egg hole punch (this is an important hard boiled egg secret btw) which comes in plastic packaging shaped like a cat, is shaped like a cat, and has a magnet on the back so you can put it on your fridge

running a cult seems like more effort than it's worth

having a cake batter cookie with mgs in it from the "Cannabakery" and catching up on RuPaul Bracket Program

It is of the utmost importance that one of you furnish me with $369,000 in order to purchase this house in Duluth, Minn. www.zillow.com/homedetails/...

oh: I got some face poison done today so I will be dateworthy in approximately two weeks. the gay here said I would benefit from a different face poison than I have previously had in my face, so I'm trying that poison. yes I am in my "sure, whatever face poison is best, I trust your judgment" era

our Uber is here BluSky

had a dream that I was somewhere like Singapore except empty and I was trying to explain to everyone I knew that the Russians were going to be taking me to prison imminently and they were like "ok. so which hat should I wear to go to the volcano" and so then I got on a bus and it went in circles

one thing a bike ship is gonna do, it's have a 10% Off Everything* (*except bikes) Sale. always 10% off all these things except for the thing you want 10% off

to have salsa but no chips is normal. that's for lots of stuff. to have chips but no salsa? dark-sided

re: the Kylie doc: this woman is one of the century's most celebrated performers and yet I still believe she is criminally underrated. but even if you're not already a fan, this is a really sweet look at someone so marvelous you might just come to understand why she's got so many huge fans

it's actually kinda wild how every single detail of VPN services' "Pricing" page is essentially identical

clouds don't really block UV, you still have to wear sunscreen

one thing the Kylie doc should make crystal clear is we simply do not appreciate Dannii enough

ty to the hot bar at Cub Foods for bringing clarity to what has up to this point been a Minnesota deli mystery to me, now I know that "wing DINGs" are fried chicken wings and "wing ZINGs" are spicy fried chicken wings

favorite new Stereogum Discord emoji

oh here's another "actually we live in a society and rules apply to all of us:" people who don't attach their front license tags in states which require two. telegraphs very clearly what kind of shithead you are

hey so here's my semi-regular reminder that if you can't hear very well you can get hearing aids and they'll set them up for you so that they help a whole lot, and the freakish close-up is to prove that you can barely see them so they won't devalue your face card!!

they put an LLM in front of our MRs and we need LGBTQ+ in STEM bc why can't I just reply to this with Kristen Johnston SATC S6E18 "Splat!" picture

this is 🔂, I've nearly memorized it, so crystalline clear, I love love love Charli vocals

Charli's "SS26" is such a text, she's not leaving herself a single breadcrumb back to brat, it's so confident, so sure, it's thrilling www.youtube.com/watch?v=twLh...

the condition "is an antisemite" utterly precludes the possibility that the person has any otherwise decent politics. we've been extremely through this very much before. this doesn't work out. they will spend the rest of their lives and careers finding reasons Jews are to blame for whatever's wrong

also just in case anyone has recs: looking for fairly lightweight, mostly pavement but can do some gravel time, more upright than bent over (think bikepacking-type comfort, not racing), and frankly I like fun aggressive frame colors I'm not afraid to say it aesthetic preferences are valid

I'm not complaining but I do think we might have stretched the limits of the enabling legislation for tax-advantaged health savings accounts/flexible savings accounts a little close to its breaking point

get the feeling I won't be able to clip you through "Widow's Bay" much without breaking plotlines but here's the tone of the show

okay you people talked about it enough so I have started "Widow's Bay" and 15 minutes into the first episode I have decided that I am officially Seated

the South Minneapolis 38th & 13th walk-up Dairy Queen ..... an icon

fyi IKEA is doing "$10 off for every $100 you spend" for Memorial Day weekend which is an unusually good across the board discount rate for them

love u Uptown Minneapolis sex shop Smitten Kitten

when I see, for example, two guys holding hands on the sidewalk i try my best to give the "hey I'm also 🚬 you're fine and I support whatever you boys are doing, maybe, to some extent" look but I'm not very good at face so I worry I'm actually just doing Meg Stalter "Hi Gay"

if it takes seeing Elizabeth Taylor leaving the Betty Ford Clinic looking fabulous to get you, or Liza Minelli, into rehab, I'm fine with that tbqh, I mean, the photos do speak for themselves

If you and/or your family (any religion or none) are somewhere you feel at risk and you want to go somewhere your care won't be interrupted, Keshet and the Hebrew Free Loan Society have a program to provide interest-free loans up to $10k for moving expenses. www.keshetonline.org/movetothrive/

am I really being hashtag influencer marketed.......... Psalms. is this happening

see. all you have to do is put Armenian captions on and you're like "wow I love this Armenian movie, MOONSTRUCK (1987)"

MOONSTRUCK (1987) proves that Italians are really a kind of Armenian when you get right down to it
