Elrond: OK, we know Sauron is gathering strength but we have this one ring that could destroy him if we chuck it into a volcano. What do y'all want to do about that? Everyone else: Rage post about it on the internet, that'll stop it!

2025. As Taylor said: Long story short, I survived.

I'm just a paperweight In shades of greige Spending my last coin so someone will tell me It'll be ok

Rock people! This guy gave me this rock and said it might be a septarian nodule. I don't think that's correct. Any ideas? #geology #rocks #agate #rockhounding

Oh well. So much for that idea.

I am suffering from the opposite of imposter syndrome, in which I am convinced I am surrounded by people who are getting paid way too much to be this stupid. 🤦‍♀️

I would just like to point out that Venezuela has an awful lot of oil reserves. I think I've seen this film before, and I didn't like the ending.

The secret of life, the universe, and everything is 42. 42 is the product of 6 and 7. 🤯

I sleep right through my death metal alarm and the lights automatically turning on in my bedroom, but the second I hear one of my cats start to puke my ass is out of that bed faster than you can say Spray and Wash.

One of the greatest things anyone has ever said to me was to explain that when you randomly decide to pick up a rock it’s because the rock has decided it wants to travel. It gives me joy to ponder.

Slabbing up this cool agate I found in the desert. #rocks #rockhounding #agate #lapidary

Well that's one more thing in 2025 that really disappointed me.

My first boss with the Army wrote this paper on "how to #resistance." Apparently he shares my perspective on performative #activism without a goal or strategy. shorturl.at/QyEos

I am officially at the age where I see an obituary and say "they were still alive?!?"

Cabbed some pieces of opalite I picked up in Gemfield, NV the other weekend. I still don't have the best eye for where to cut but I'm learning. #lapidary #rocks #rockhound

Another job interview with a person who was clearly using an AI avatar and reading responses from a chat bot in real time. Determining whether a candidate is a human being really should not be part of my job.

Thought I would check out AR/VR BlueSky. It's just furry porn. 🤦‍♀️

FINALLY 👽🛸 www.ibtimes.co.uk/harvard-prof...

A great article about how we got here. 💩 arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025...

Stop 👏 performative 👏 bitching 👏 on 👏 the 👏 internet 👏 you 👏 are 👏 just 👏 making 👏 it 👏 worse 👏 and 👏 not 👏 fixing 👏 anything 👏

So basically this is the government saying that men literally think with their dicks? 🤦‍♀️

So far they have released over 10 versions of TLOAS, with yet another today. I did not have Taylor Swift giving me the ick on my bingo card for 2025 but here we are. 😭😭😭

The best take on TLOAS: "It sounds like what people who don't like Taylor Swift think she sounds like."

I love Taylor Swift but I'm gonna need her to leave the 🍆 jokes to the professionals.🤦‍♀️

A lot going on at the moment.

Love you, Tay but no I am not buying an orange sparkly cardigan, good lord. 🤦‍♀️ Apparently this whole year is me finding lines I've drawn in the sand, tiptoeing next to them and not crossing them. This was the easiest to date.

I said, "Please no spoilers for season of Only Murders in the Building" and I meant it.

"Submit to your husband, Taylor. You're not in charge." - Charlie Kirk Hey Google, play "Karma" by Taylor Swift. 🥂

Dear god, I know I'm not perfect, but please don't let me be such a shitty person that when I die thousands of people mutter under their breath, "Good." But also, "Good."

If you ever think I'm dead, try this first please.

Why stop there? Just make our own country already.

It’s ‘Left of west and coming in a hurry with the Furies breathing down your neck

I never thought I would know the answer to this, which has puzzled me for years. I might die happy now.

I can

These are the hard decisions I am so glad I am not facing at the moment.

Rock Looked Way Cooler Wet

So if everyone else is playing Taylor Swift songs at their weddings, whose music does Taylor Swift play at her wedding?? 🤔

IVE NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY FOR PEOPLE WHO DONT KNOW I EXIST OMG

My Google News app has YET to update with the news that Taylor Swift is engaged. It had ONE JOB. Throwing it in the trash. 🗑️

It's my birthday so I cut open some thunder eggs. These are the interesting ones. #rocks #rockhound

“Think of your energy as if it’s expensive, as if it’s a luxury item. Not everyone can afford it." - Taylor Swift

Let's see if my relationship survives a new Taylor Swift album. He has been warned. 😬

There's quite a bit of Taylor Swift on your playlist, Pam Bondi. 👀👀 panamaplaylists.com

Problem: People are using ChatGPT as a therapist. Solution: Make ChatGPT a better therapist. Or maybe DON'T DO THAT.

Today @sarahmercier.me and I realized there are probably rocks at rock bottom so there's an upside to our current national trajectory. 🪨⛏️🤷‍♀️

Finally got around to polishing up these #agates today. I'm pretty happy with them. #rockhound #rocks #lapidary

Same chunk of Harstel #barite before and after an hour of SoCal sun! Its photoreactivity is caused by (probably) lead impurities in the crystal. Thanks @planetarykeri.bsky.social for the tips. Had a great time out there! #rockhounding #rocks #crystals #colorado

Dear God please spare us the discovery in this case. We have all been through enough. If we're ever going to "believe the women," it should start with Stormy Daniels. 🍄

"All men are unleashed pit bulls running up to women in a park." Some are sweet, some will bite your face off. Great analogy by @dansavage.bsky.social
