When a dude has a dirty mirror on his bathroom selfie, it makes me so conflicted because it's gross, but it's also proof he flosses.

My husband just got admitted to the Master of education program at UBC! He's so smart and I'm so proud of him!

Assholes, assholes, everywhere, and not a one I'd fuck.

PSA, because some of you demented 🚬s need it:

Man, I wish creatine didn't taste so nasty.

I'm a Renaissance man* *Can recite Chaucer in middle English and Spice in Patwah with equal facility.

Kim Davis won't get a hearing in the Supreme Court, so same sex marriage rights are safe in the US for now. I still think there could be five votes to limit or overturn the right to ssm, but Kim Davis's suit was an absurdly terrible vehicle to do it.

I'm 41. I thought my homosexual lusts would be a bit less insatiable by now. Alas.

post a non-religious image you think of as holy

If Trump's on fire, I ain't pissin' on him without a court order.

I can't help how I was born, Melissa.

Feel free to use this as a pickup line. I like to help gay sex happen.

Since it was taken over by a right-wing billionaire, Tiktok automatically rejects reports about hateful incitement. Livestreams about white genocide and great replacement are not violations of its terms of service.

The Trump administration is now appealing the court order to spend snap benefits. They are spending taxpayer money to defend their "right" to starve Americans in order to extort democrats into voting to cut them off of their access to healthcare.

I couldn't ask for a more perfect visual metaphor.

I discovered the kittens drinking bottles of milk genre of online videos. I don't plan to be doing anything else with my free time from now on, so I apologize in advance for my absence.

I assumed that right wing churches would step up and invest in future tithes and influence by temporarily filling some of the gap left by snap. But they're really not. They're shaming and policing people who need to use food banks instead. I need to stop projecting competence on these people.

Hoagie hero was acquitted! Even though the federal officer who got hit with a fully wrapped sandwich claimed he was traumatized by its "exploding on his chest" and causing him to have to "smell onions and mustard 😭".

I don't understand how any cis person could be ungrateful enough for the existence of trans people to be transphobic. It's really dumb shit.

More people need to see what a fucking freak Peter Thiel is. I recently saw an interviewer ask, in the context of AI, whether Thiel wants humanity to survive. He spent a long awkward stammer trying to figure out how to say "no" without looking like the omnicidal maniac that he obviously is.

This got lost in the scrum about higher profile races, but "Moms for Liberty," an anti-queer hate group that has been infiltrating school boards for the last few years, fielded 32 school board candidates, and lost all 32 elections. People are getting fed up with professional bullies.

This is me now that I'm in my 40s

They keep threatening us with a good time!

I'm not superstitious, but it's hard not to take this as a sign today.

Anyone else like to wear black on chilly days for the solar heating effect?

I didn't even notice that it's fucking printer paper taped to the wall. I guess when you have dementia, you need a little help figuring out whether the oval shaped room is the oval office.

There's a left wing debate about the utility of trying to organize a general strike. A common argument I've heard is that targeted boycotts are more likely to be effective and organizing a general strike is impractical. I agree with that analysis, but only for now.

I'm finally starting to psychologically adjust to the fact that Vancouver doesn't have a winter. Until this year, the cooler, wetter weather of fall always filled me with dread for the months of freeze-your-fucking-face-off, lung-searing cold I knew as winter in Chicago and Montréal.

I smell pumpkin spice scented candles when I see that font. Just the basickest bitchcraft.

If you must engage with right wing commenters, just keep it to a simple "🤣." It enrages them, and I guarantee they're not putting any more effort than that into sharting out propaganda in our faces.

This is disturbing AF, but I think it's a really effective comment on the predatory way vaping is marketed to kids.

This is bad if you're a fascist trying to consolidate power, huh?

Ezra Klein, this is how you "do politics the right way" in a post-truth age of moronic spectacle. It's a heck of a lot better than "debating" Nazi talking points in bad faith.

You know why Scrooge didn't starve 16 million children in a Christmas Carol? Because Dickens wasn't a total hack. He wouldn't have written a villain as unbelievable as Donald Trump.

"Social security is a democrat scheme to give free sex changes to ms-13." Will be a thing the media has to endlessly litigate in 2026. Better than covering a depression and food insecurity. Anyway, Ohio legislators can get back to banning drag queens in public now; I can't stop them.

The only "How are you going to pay for that?" allowed should be addressed to owners and shareholders, in relation to the public debt we've run up giving them tax cuts for the last 40 years or so.

Dick Cheney died, y'all. So, ya know, don't lose hope. Good things are still possible.

Gosh, it's too bad that uber wealthy people have to stay uber wealthy to live, otherwise we wouldn't have to mortgage the cost of cleaning up their act and modernizing onto future generations. But alas, taxing them one more cent than they pay right now would be an unthinkable crime...

Apologies in advance if I start posting an annoying amount about pickling and fermentation. I fear I am rapidly sliding down a kombucha brewing pipeline.

It's so cute how liberals and moderates think marginalized people don't notice how much they're "just playing devil's advocate." Like we don't notice how much pro bono work they're doin' for the devil and judge them accordingly.

Try to make half your face slack, the way Trump's looked on 60 minutes, and many other times since early September. It's hard. It's not a normal sign of being tired, or a weird facial expression. It's a sign of a stroke.

I created a blocklist of conversion therapy advocates and their enablers as they started migrating over from Twitter. They had two distinct audiences over there: 1) moderate cishet queerphobes who want a queer person to reassure them that their hatred of same sex relationships and gender transition

"I take no responsibility for the harm I've done, and I still don't think y'all deserve full human dignity. But being a quisling didn't work out for me, so I will graciously allow you to embrace me as a sister as long as you don't want to hold me accountable in any way." -Brianna Wu

Happy birthday to the incomparable @balambsprings.bsky.social who is one of the finest humans this planet has to offer.

Swarthy boys in their natural habitat. I miss the desert; it's probably going to be a long time before it's safe to go back.

Happy Halloween! We're here to rescue *your* Princess peach.

Happy Halloween! Imma Luigi! But thassa sir to you if you wanna mangiare la salsiccia.

It's so frustrating how Republican *fantasies* about democratic policy (free healthcare for illegal immigrants, open borders, transgender for EVERYONE) get an endless platform and litigation in the MSM, but Republicans never have to defend the *reality* of their policies.

Hey Vancouver peeps! I've been using odd bunch for produce for the last few weeks, and I highly recommend it. I get the medium box for 38 dollars a week, and that usually covers all the produce I need, and I cook a lot. It's varied and good quality - usually better than what RCS sells.

"Gay to straight conversion therapy." Straight "allies": "That's wrong, but adults should be able to participate in abusive and fraudulent malpractice if they choose to. Even though informed consent to fraud is impossible and there's enormous social stigma and coercion involved in the 'choice.'"
