We have workers from Mass Save in all week getting insulation put in the house, and two new guys are here today and they're OBSESSED with Gustav (their words!). I can hear them in the basement talking about them and when I tell you I am D Y I N G ---

Gustav was SO good at the vet, calm and sweet and let them steal his blood without so much as a peep. Tried to knock the tech's laptop off her lap so she'd give him more pets, so he was Gustaving as normal. now it's a wait and see until bloodwork comes back.

CHICAGO: if you need a job, the hospitality unions say they are trying to fill spots at the new Obama Center since the tickets to visit it are sold out til October. My church member said they’re paying $26. Tap in if you can.

This is an old friend. 💜 If you have a few dollars this month, consider sending them AJ's way.

the fact that AI has zero traction in accounting, which is an essential business function that all companies have to deal with, is such a key sign to me.

Spare a thought for Gustav, please. My guy is struggling again with GI troubles, possibly still from the heat last week despite having improved over the weekend. Vet tomorrow to see what's up. :(

Man, the hits keep coming. 😔 Yolen was a huge cornerstone for my enduring love of fantasy as a kid and still as an adult.

Welp. Roommate says she's likely not resigning the lease in August. Boston area people, if you know anyone looking, this is quite a nice setup for very cheap considering the space available + current housing market, plus new insulation should drastically reduce future bills. Signal boosts welcome!

smoosh

lower him into the ground on straps....and then we'll TWANG him into a tree

For context, Jason Statham's trainer says he has a ~365lb deadlift. SHE DEADLIFTS MORE THAN JASON STATHAM.

380lbs deadlift PR for one of our gym members over the weekend aaaa 😍💪🏼STRONK

Getting into a physical altercation with someone about their terrible dog opinions, probably.

I know it wouldn't make things materially better, but I wish anyone refusing to pay a survival wage to workers had to actually say, out loud, to their employees, "I don't believe you deserve a survival wage."

If you over-regulate capitalism you get totalitarian communism. If you under-regulate capitalism you get a ruling caste of insane monopolists. Please ignore the fact that one of these things has never happened and the other keeps happening over and over

Is this a good time to mention that every time I see "USMNT" I think of "U.S. Mutant Ninja Turtles"

After putting off watching for a billion years, my gay card is about to be revoked for it so I am about to finally give it a chance. So! Cis friends who enjoy Ru Paul's Drag Race! What do you like about it? What keeps you watching? I am curious!

Gotta love trying to choose between having a meltdown over massive sensory overwhelm from the heat vs having a meltdown over the massive energy bill resulting from using the window a/c to stave off the sensory meltdown, because you guessed it! Porque no los DOS meltdowns!

It's bizarre how repeatedly people keep hijacking the conversation about Accessibility away from things like closed captioning, colorblindness support, alt-text for screen-readers, etc, to "Games should be easier to play, books should be easier to read, and shows should be simple to understand"

(I already showed him LotR: TTT and told him the Wargs were also him, so I wanted to make sure he had a more realistic representation of himself in film, too.)

Showing Gustav the Guy Ritchie King Arthur movie so I can point out the mastiff guard dogs and say, "That's you!"

1996 Bulls, baybeeeee~~~ #23, #33, #91 🔥🔥🔥

Up all night again with a dog that keeps overheating because our shitty house and shittier window a/c are still struggling to recover from the high temps and higher humidity r.i.p. my sanity

need snugle come snugle me pls yes u

iiiiiiiiiitttttt would be super great if my current roommate could figure out if she's resigning the lease or not again so i can stop! spinning out! about it! pLEAsE!

Jun 9th 1954 - Six strangers are invited to a secluded New England mansion. The date is known due to the Army–McCarthy hearings that were on the TV in the kitchen 📽️📅 Clue (1985)

Anyway I'm crushed to discover my brain just activated like a sleeper agent after hearing a Bloodhound Gang song & now I'm listening to the full Hooray for Boobies album and can still recite most of the songs from memory. Why, brain. Why did we save these files and not, yk, literally anything else.

Me: I don't think I stim all that much? Also me, every time I do laundry: /stands next to the washer on the final spin cycle and shakes entire body along to the spin rhythm like a car lot tube man, solely to regulate before having to touch Bad Wet Fabric when unloading

[Denethor voice] Gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme Faramir on a pyre

Anyway, Namjoon's deep voice in Fire saying, "Hey. Burn it up." 🔥😳🔥😳🔥😳🔥😳🔥 That's it that's the skeet. 👍

I put the adjustable folding table at its tallest height, so he's making A Point here. 😒

holy vajazzeled bejesus, I don't know what finally tipped my long-time background knee pain into extremely in the immediate foreground stabby knee pain but HAHA FUCK christ fuck me ow

an average bluesky user

This is hilarious to me, the ex-ev who grew up one of the towns with the most churches per capita in the U.S., but who's own church + community was so rigorously insulated against anyone Not Us, that we were taught even the other countless white evangelical churches weren't Real Christians.

This one tops the list at #1, with #2 being Mister Nub and #3 Dr Sausage Tube. He inhabits his official name - Gustav Klimt - perfectly, with all his own dignity and solemnity and gravitas. He doesn't deserve these nicknames! He does nothing to earn them but exist! And yet.😔 Take me away, officer.

In unrelated news, I've started calling my dog 'Goosey-Poops' which I'm pretty sure I should go to jail for.

I really, really need to suck it up and see my PCP for a check-up but I'm scared to know how bad all my blood and joints and endocrine system and skeleton and everything else is r.i.p.

#bodyimage #weight It's so annoying to feel hot and attractive in my body organically, *until* I look in a mirror and am forced to consider the ways I don't meet typical beauty/body norms (mainly: big belly without the chest to offset it). It's the stupidest mindfuck and I am eternally rage at it.

this is the first story i thought of when i heard about Anthony Head's passing. it was shared on fb, then reddit, then a few publications picked it up (i won't link to articles bc they needlessly mention famous people who are... the opposite of him, and nobody needs to read that during pride) 💙💗🤍

God, I hadn't realized Anthony Head's partner had passed just this last December, too. I'm glad they're together again now, at least. 😢

speaking of calvin klein jungkook. remember this queen?

The result of Gustav becoming BFF with our mailman has been learning how brutal summer days are on mail carriers - he knows multiple USPS people who have died on their routes when it gets this hot. If you've got the setup + the means, consider leaving out a frozen water bottle or two for yr carrier

snug in seokjin’s lap, a hand on namjoon’s crotch, jungkook’s face on his ass, is this the greed they talk about in the bible

The Townhouse in Minneapolis. Man. I was *so shy* back then, and had to be dragged out by the older queers in the illegal college GSA and plied with one of the Townhouse's absolutely disgusting LIITs in order to get me to dance. Oh baby!me....

This is Jinkook as hell.

I'm gonna throw up all my organs to make more room for how much I love these idiots [consumed with adoration] and how much they love each other gOD

THE BTS FAMILY PHOTOS I'M EVERY SCREAMING CRYING GIF AT ONCE look at these stupid nerds [overflowing with affection] these fucking dORKs [full of lust] absolute dingdong babies [collapsing under the weight of all my love for them]

He's a 10 but when he's sleepy his eyes do the weird half-open demon thing.

hello good morning I've had breakfast, time to go insane
