Decided this morning on my way to work if i suddenly heard it happened i would immediately turn back home bc it would be unprofessional to run through the office hallways laughing and whooping and high fiving my coworkers

Lol!!

I should be so lucky

You'd be amazed how many words I ... sort of 'feel" the meaning of, can use in a sentence, but cant articulate that meaning w/o looking it up. drives me bonkers. Thank god for the internet. I just quoted dictionary dot Com on the meaning of compromise bc merriam webster's definition was too mushy

Happened to me exactly like that. I was physically powerless to stop him. But he wasn't my boyfriend, just a dude I was dating

Exactly. I'm an attorney in the middle of writing an opinion so I'm thinking pretty logically right now. Ossoff doesn't know what forthright means off the top of his head but neither did I. But he & his staff knew the dude wouldn't answer, so it would have been good to prepare for that.

According to merriam webster's online dictionary, "forthright" means "free from ambiguity or evasiveness : going straight to the point." The witness is evading the question. Therefore he is not meeting his obligation to be honest and forthright That's what ossoff should have said.

Watching Blanche, it's as though Jeffrey Dahmer was on the stand and his answer to every question was "I am fervently committed to ending cannibalism, which is why I was so angry about how the guy who lived in my apartment before me was such a cannibal."

I fucking despise my boss

What? #caturday

Absolutely detestable meat sacks spewing hate and stupidity, no redeeming human qualities. Not even sure they're human. Maybe they're lizards, that would explain the reptilian brain

I finally bought some shit on temu which came in the mail yesterday. I'm happy with the stuff i got but jesus that app is awful to navigate and would not leave me alone so I won't be using it again. However i did get this dude. Best buck 97 I ever spent

Thank god indeed

Can't get my goddamn cat to blow his goddamn nose goddamn cat #caturday

All I hear from any conservative promising to not be evil is, "Abortion is settled law"

What a fucking idiot. Out, NOW.

Wasn't aware "minefield" was a synonym for "bribe" but ok

Russian roulette? That’s too easy. I’m eating salad with fresh veggies instead

“Prebunking” has been found to be very effective in neutralizing disinformation

Trigger warning: snot #caturday (He's been to the vet, it's a truly nasty cold, got a shot of antibiotics just in case and some nsaids we're having a blast trying to getting him to take. That's sarcasm)

Oh man that's when I would be filing complaints with every office you can think of, consider small claims court, make their lives miserable. Bc fuck that shit. I order a fuckton of stuff from Etsy, etsy sellers almost always use usps. With only 1 exception every item has been delivered.

I'll be watching something else, maybe paint dry, or grass grow

Scolds will be blocked even if you're not scolding me

"Verify your age" My high school freshman typing class used these

No special food or drink but I do plan to run out into the front yard and do a lot of laughing and whooping

I live in an 825 square ft apt & my elec bill is the same every month, adjusted once a year. Its gone from 150 to 190 to 250 in the last several years and when i called to complain about the jump to 250, dominion said "actually last month your bill wiuld have been 310". What. The. Fuck.

Is it me or has the 21st century been kind of a lot?

This, and his speech in the senate the evening of january 6, when I had a brief moment of hope that republicans had finally woken up and were drawing a line in the sand. That didn't last long.

At the vet for a cold bc mom's bank account needs depleting. 17 lbs. There's a reason I call you Chonky McPorkbutt #caturday

For 2 days I've been moving shit from one frame to another, one spot to another, & hammering endless nails into a wall that must be solid something. I'm over the nail hammering. On the fence about that mirror. I wanted this project done during my week off. Started it in 2020. May add some shit

And BTW when Jenny racicot said "he took something I said as an invitation" she was doing what many, many rape victims do, consciously or unconsciously. She has internalized the societal message that the woman must have done something to invite the attack. I know. I've done it myself.

One thing I don’t think men understand is that rape and assault are so ubiquitous—and so perpetually immune from consequence or recognition—that many women learn to talk about these incidents as of they’re mere inconveniences. We are not allowed to treat them with more gravity.

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

And while we're on the subject, I can't stand Susan Collins, but the idea that she is solely responsible for the fall of Roe, as opposed to the 44 men in the Senate, the 20 in the White House, and the 5 on the Supreme Court, is ludicrous and misogynistic. She is ONE vote.

If roughing up a girlfriend and locking her in a room was a virile, authentic a rejection of “smoothgroined” “HR lady” politics, but a rape is too far, then what’s at stake is not a principled rejection of violence against women but a cynical assessment of how much violence a man can get away with.

Misogyny got us trump in 2016 and again in 2024 and I wish the platner defenders on bluesky would take a vow of silence for a few days and reflect on that

1. This will have a much more negative impact on the accuser's life than Platner's 2. Even if for no other reason, since accusations of sexual assault typically ruin accusers' lives, you should start by presuming credibility absent specific reason for doubt (in contexts other than criminal justice)

I’ve been so many Guys over the years on the internet. Interdimensional Portal Guy. Psychedelic Rock Guy. Owl Guy. Cat Guy. Midcentury Furniture Guy. Folklore Guy. Badger Guy. I’m as happy with Sheep Guy as any of them.

Sheep guy has a thread about cats

Sheep guy has a new thread

Such a little gentleman #caturday
