What gender are prisons? Do we assign a gender to them? Asking for my sourdough starter.

Slowcooker or Instant Pot? Our slowcooker died over the Christmas break and now that we're in the market for another I'm wondering if we should go Instant Pot, never had one before. For context we are two adults and a cat who begs for our meat.

Put together what I'm sure will be the first of many terrariums today. 🌱

It really is the best version.

Potating is a verb.

Did they really have to hurt me like this?

Update on the mystery plant...it's looking more and more squash like to me! 🌱

Had a random plant come up in my balcony garden. My plant ID app can't decide if it's cucumber, pumpkin, or some form of squash. I didn't plant any of those this year. Last year I tossed a bunch of random seeds into the space though so....yay plant adventure! 🌱

I need a job where the whole thing is just coming up with ideas. Need an idea for a novel? I've got tons. Need an idea for a website? I've got way too many. I remember when I was 8 and I had an idea for a business doing people's grocery shopping and then taking it to their house...in 1994.

Nicest day of the year so far...so of course I'm sick. Having blocked sinuses when its 22c just isn't fair.

Colin Killick from The Autistic Self Advocacy Network did an amazing job sticking up for autistic Americans after disgusting comments from the head of the Department of Health and Human Services that will only serve to spread hate and misinformation. #autism abcnews.go.com/US/video/aut...

Trans women are women. Period.

I've been up since 3 in the morning so I'm too tired to properly rant but... an emojicast? Are they trying to appeal to 8 year olds? Are adults not mature enough to watch the pollen forecast without little sad faces?

1/Every parent, educator & advocate should be alarmed: DHS agents tried to enter 2 LA elementary schools posing as “wellness checks”—targeting children who crossed the border alone. Superintendent Carvalho, once undocumented himself, called it out with “anger and contempt.” As he should. Kcalnews

Did you know the US House of Representatives passed the Save Act, which doesn't let women vote if they have a different last name from the one on their birth certificate? And by the way, if it passes no one can vote if they can't show their birth certificate. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

So just to keep up, the plan is, we’re going to raise tariffs so high no one can buy things, then we’re going to build factories with no OSHA protections, no pollution standards, no change to the minimum wage, and open to child labor. So we are partying like it’s 1899, that’s the plan.

Nothing more needs to be said.

Why are pistachios suddenly the in thing?

Classic writer problem...you've got an idea for a setting but NO IDEA what to do with it. *Sighs and adds it to the collection*

It is 2002. I am 18 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2008. I am 24 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2020. I am 36 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2025. I am 41 years old. We are in a—

Today is the birthday of our little April Fool, Jaffa. He's officially the oldest person in the house now at the ripe old age of 8!

Can we just not this year?

Picture this... Muse, a Christmas Album. Filled to the brim with anti-Capitalism, destroy the rich songs done in an eerily cheerful fake Christmas cheer kind of way.

Gen Z out here killing the perfume industry.... I guess? www.forbes.com/sites/brucel...

Nearly all the balcony tulips are open for the year. This one is by far my favorite! 🌱

I haven't been hyped for an MCU movie in a good long time. The last one I saw in the theater was Endgame. I am but a simple woman.... You put Loki in and that hype train starts to chug. All I want is for my boy to be reunited with his brother. Loki deserves his happy ending.

This.

3 and a half hours later she finally got the email sent! It contains 37 words and one pdf attachment. She won't remember how to do this five minutes from now.

Nothing is more agonizing than helping family with anything related to computers. No, gmail did not get deleted from your laptop.

My writing method

90% of why I love Reddit (despite its many flaws) are interactions like these... Brutal.

I got 99 problems but eggs ain't one.

I've been paranoid about stinging nettle for days while weeding. I let down my guard while weeding around a catnip plant. This was the incorrect thing to do. 🌱

Pulling up weeds that are already flowering is hard on the soul. 🌱

I'm in a weird sort of head space today. I've realized that I'm older than my mother was when I met my husband. At this age she had 3 children, one who was legally an adult (me). She owned a home. She had a car, as most Americans do.

It amazes me how many weeds manage to take hold on a balcony. 🌱

I was so pleased with how cleanly this weed came up that I had to take a picture of it. Look how clean those roots are! 🌱

You know its Spring when... The first tulip blooms... The tree fuzzies are fuzzing! 🌱

What does it say about society that when I have a dream that wipes out the population the dream immediately goes to "Ooo, we can finally have a house of our own." And when telling my husband about the dream his first thought on hearing the population was wiped out was "We can get a house"

if you’re a liberal who doesn’t like us leftists and communists i am sorry but you need to realize this current democratic party needs to be completely destroyed, they are actively helping donald trump

I've always hated white shoes. I don't know why, but they are the blue ink pen of the shoe world. And I 100% agree with this video. www.youtube.com/shorts/Iycmk...

The worst "upgrade" Windows has ever had was getting rid of the visuals for defragmenting.

Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

For the love of bananas...why is shopping for a phone case so hard?!? I don't want to spend €50 for a really good case for a phone that is already 4 years old. I also don't want a POS that will be worthless in just a few months.

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.
