As much as I am obsessed with Velvet Goldmine I am ashamed to say I have never seen this before! Also in time strangeness. Bowie is the same age in this video as I am now. And damn he looks good!

I am confident I am seeing the same news you’re seeing, so me sharing it so it can show up for the dozenth time onto your TL isn’t gonna help either of us. What WILL help you is to unclench your jaw and drink some water.

(let this also be a public service announcement to NOT TOUCH BATS especially if they are acting weird, ie letting you touch them. Rabies is a terrible way to die, and getting the series of rabies shots to stop you from dying is not super relaxing. DO NOT TOUCH BATS.)

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

The Epstein files aren't as important as people think. They knew he raped someone, and still voted for him. Would knowing some of his victims were under the age of 18 make a difference - or would his supporters just stick their fingers in their ears and sing the Fox News theme louder?

Am I going to get K-Trauma from a K-Drama? The final episode of Bon Apetite Your Majesty just dropped, and I'm a little scared.

I am really excited that this dress is coming together. I am going to add laces to the back, hem it, and add trim. Then make a robe to wear over it. Perfect for Halloween and the HP Lovecraft film festival next year.

“War ravaged Portland.” I have seen things you baristas wouldn’t believe. Attack kayaks on fire off the coast of Mill Ends Park. I watched powdered Voodoo doughnuts glitter in the dark near the Pittock Mansion gate. All these moments will be lost in time.

Just gonna leave this here

Being autistic is a fine & cool thing to be. Some people need extra support, some don't, it's just a normal part of human life. It doesn't need 'curing' or 'preventing' & the people who want to do as much are, straightforwardly, part of a Nazi legacy.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

it was so nice to write about K-pop and about fandom again! 🩷

anyway here’s @vivmccall.bsky.social with some extremely good and extremely fucking sobering reporting on the recent surge in random hate crimes directed at trans women in Seattle. Please be careful, everyone. www.thestranger.com/news/2025/09...

What movie do you consider "perfect"?

Okay now I need to see Warhammer polly pockets... XD

Bored Teen In Innsmouth - 1919

Do not underestimate the soft spoken, the kind, the gentle. It takes strength to be those things, sometimes more than you will ever know. If you look closely at someone who conducts themselves honorably, you will find something fierce inside.

Bay leaves, rosemary, cherry tomatoes and a single pea pod. BEHOLD NATURES FECUND BOUNTY!

I went for a walk through the West Seattle Edible Park today, and picked a lovely fall bouquet. I think it looks nice in Mom's pitcher.

I can’t help it. The grackles are still here, and need to be photographed 🤣 The male Common Grackles usually take every opportunity to display, especially in the spring! But it’s Fall, and this male was displaying a lot! Apparently, he knows what he looks like🤣 #Birds #photography #wildlife 🪶

I am sort-of/kind-of watching Round 4 of the China GT racing championships, but I don't know much about the sport and the commentary is in Italian, so I just have it running in the background.

I remember when they were putting extra shoulder padding in his costumes during the Untamed - all of that rock climbing he has been doing really shows.

There is a difference between a consumer boycott and a workers’ strike. At a time when unions are under attack, let’s not give them an excuse to throw labor leaders and union members in jail…or worse. I used to run the legal department at two major entertainment industry unions. I know. Not kidding.

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly. sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Hatred of trans people is wrong. Vilifying trans people is wrong. Look for opportunities to support trans people and take those opportunities!

remember taking care of yourself and enjoying your time/life is the best form of political resistance. fascists are fucking crazy if you existing being happy in your own home pisses them off this much.

Enjoying Bon Apetite Your Highness - but kind of tired of Ji Yeong having to prove she can cook in every single episode so that she doesn't get executed.

“I think it is just sort of a reaction to the bombarding nature of technology and how kind of intrusive it’s starting to feel... this is a way for people to reclaim a bit of power. Reclaim a bit of choice.” It’s great to see the Physical Media Society thriving with their shared love of VHS. ♥️📼

science is so metal! i forgot to specify, people have been cured of TYPE 1 which is wild!

I meant to mention this yesterday but that pic of XZ questioning his life choices is from this awesome review of The Untamed ep. 12 - canary3d-obsessed.tumblr.com/post/6330953...

I really need bluesky to be more "read this book about fucky aliens" and less of "watch Netanyahu murder this kitten with his bare hands"

But what if don't want to talk about political violence? What if I just want to shitpost about inconsequential nonsense? There is room in my heart for activism and for being a silly.

I think I met a cast member from The Untamed at Home Depot today!

I am up to episode 3 of Revenged Love, and I might like the behind the scenes footage more than I like the show.

Kill to Love is delightfully low budget, the actors got acrylic nails before filming and never got them filled. You can tell which scenes were filmed early in the production by how much grow-out there is, and this is a film which LOVES its hand close ups so it is super obvious.

I crocheted Patti Smith’s Horses cover

Only one episode of Kill to Love left, so I'm starting on Revenged Love. I am not a big fan of modern drama, but I need something to distract me from The Reality (ugh).

Oh hello I am Daniel Danger, a brokey brain human who draws many many tiny lines of weird sad dreamy places that don't quite make sense and then there's a prose title that makes even less sense, and then they are silkscreened into massive prints for your wall. I am on this app now, fear me.

GHOST MONTH GHOST MONTH

idgaf if an artist is charging $1000 for a sketch. art is a luxury good, if people are buying it it’s not overpriced

I keep seeing kids in their late teens and early 20s romanticize the year 2016. “It’s 2016 and you’re listening to this song…” Guys, nobody liked 2016. Until 2020, it was considered one of the worst years anyone had ever seen. Everyone cool died. It was fucking miserable. Stop it.

Huzzah!

I ordered this sewing machine today - I fell in love with the color. My old machine doesn't make even stitches any more and getting it fixed is more expensive (and less fun) than just replacing it.

Today I read the John Langan story "How the day runs down". It is a riff on Thornton Wilder's "Our Town". I do not think I will ever get over one of the scenes - but then again why read horror if it doesn't freak you out a little sometimes?

GREATER SEATTLE AREA: Folks looking at adding a cat to your home, consider some older-cat tortitude.

I finally saw Weapons. Loved it. Won't spoil it.

Today I got offline, went across the street to the park (where there was a neighborhood open mic), and sat under a tree with my embroidery project. I met new people and it was great!
