sure albinos are cool but melanistic birds are metal AF

searching through old photos for something on your phone can swing wildly between "wow that was a great time" and "holy shit I just ruined my entire day seeing that"

"why am I drippings with goo" is perhaps one of my most-quoted movie lines

since Amazon has temporarily relented and allowed me to watch Ghostbusters 2 on this most sacred of evenings, I would like to remind everyone that the actor who played Vigo the Carpathian has one of the more insane Wikipedia pages going en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm...

well it's New Year's Eve and you know what that means time to do some laundry

as an Atlanta resident it seems like a key part of enjoying the NFL is "don't be a fan of the Atlanta Falcons, no matter how enticing it seems at the time"

once again, Amazon is pulling the hey, the video you "purchased" is not available to "watch" but it's not OUR fault... you should try again later at a time that's convenient for *us* scam thank you as always for your money

*watching an incoming text bubble pop up off and on for three full minutes of presumed typing* the text: "Wow"

every time I venture out onto other websites I am instantly reminded that, for all its faults, Bluesky is one of the few places where I'm not bombarded with pop-ups and slide-over videos and text that jumps around bc of pop-ups and slide-over videos the internet, as a whole, is unusable garbage
