It happened again

Didn’t want to believe this was true. It’s true.

✨In twilight tides where moonlight swells, The black sea nettle softly dwells. A veil of ink, a ghostly thread, With trailing arms of starlight spread. 🌊And here on shore, our hands can mend The seas these jellies call a friend. We clean, protect, and learn to see That every wave holds you and me.

They have one of these in the US I’m shocked

Cy’s under the knife rn and I’m currently breaking down because I might be allergic to my womb food

Screams bc I suddenly remembered that my ex roommate used to hang her wet underwear to dry on the door of the breaker box until I firmly and politely recommended to not do that

Honey butter chips taste pretty good with pistachio ice cream actually

This ia so insanely grim i am SCREAMING

CEO compensation graphed next to employee compensation. 🙃

Not Japan-related, but since we all need a distraction from The Horrors, Takaya Suzuki points out a study that examined 408 sleeping cats and found the majority (65%) curl leftwards. I'm not sure how useful this information is, but...it's yours now.

I don’t care if you hate porn. Please for the love of god don’t get stuck there cognitively. Anti-porn legislation + how trans and NB people (even cis drag queens/kings) are being consistently described as sexually deviant = the groundwork is being laid for all queer expression to be made illegal.

In 2020 I got a copy of the English release of Magic Knight Rayearth for the Sega Saturn. It's one of the rarest games, with as little as 5,000 - 10,000 made. Finally getting my hands on it was like buying a Lamborghini only to discover someone had lovingly embroidered penises into the upholstery.

READ. THE. SUBHEAD.

new pope! *crowd goes wild* American pope! *crowd boos* woke for an American! *crowd goes wild* bad on protecting abusive priests! *crowd boos* hates JD Vance! *crowd goes wild*

Sometimes I put in an absurdly low bid on an eBay auction with the knowledge that I definitely won't get it but also a vanishingly slim hope that MAYBE by some miracle nobody else will bid. Anyway that is how I ended up adding this magnificent glass plate negative to my collection!

Our local history museum has this painting of "Tinkle" in their collection but I have NEVER seen it on display. Always in storage. They open for the season May 9th and we're very anxious to see if it's out this year. Unknown artist, 1883. shelburnemuseum.org/online-exhib...

My wordle yesterday was perhaps my greatest achievement and also the basis for a new netflix series

Pulling out all my best moves to distract you from that thing I did

Screaming at these people works. They’re fundamentally wimps, we just have to actually DO the screaming instead of preemptively admitting defeat. I am talking about my fellow Americans, not the Democrats. We actually need to scream, gang, not just complain that Schumer isn’t.

The FBI just arrested a sitting judge.

"the government is now arresting judges they disagree with" seems like a pretty clear place to shut it all down

Fight back. Wannabe dictators often cave in if it's too much trouble. And even if they don't? If you're gonna lose, lose fighting back rather than giving them what they want.

I know gardening/caring for plants is more of a hobby in the U.S., but the more I grow plants, the more I feel that everyone should experiment with it even on a basic level. It feels like a combination of science, art, and a little bit of magic.

Local independent art supply store St. Louis Art Supply has created a directory of independent art supply stores in the US, seems like a cool resource!

In an unsurprising turn of events, I found out my bastard son only likes to be held if he can put his paw against my jugular for insurance in case things go south

Impressively sizable ppp >>> impressively sizable pp

Was walking around downtown the other day and I spotted an impressively sizable pink princess philodendron through a salon window. The leaves looked as big as my head and it looked quite happy, as the store awning provided the best indirect sunlight. I’m insanely jealous of their plant and lighting.

I hope this makes you smile as much as it did for me.
