It's Tuesday, and I'm disgusted by our government and gobsmacked that citizens are being killed with absolutely no retribution. Also, is there an agreed upon pseudonym for ICE on platforms that are filtering it? Maybe CUBE? Like the Borg cube? Though that might be insulting to the Borg.

@mikemcmahan.bsky.social I don't want this to sound sappy or whatever. But it will. I finally watched the last season of Lower Decks. I didn't want to because I didn't want it to end. But I did. So, thanks for creating a love letter to Star Trek or something. You all did a really good job. Fuck.

Barrett's Esophagus has joined the GERD and Hiatal Hernia party. Ain't no party like a premalignant esophagus tissue party! Shots of Pepcid all around! Turn 40 and body starts collecting conditions like fucking trading cards.

The first half of Hump Day humped. I guess I'm in the hump of Hump Day. The humpiest part. Wrist injury leading to worker's comp. Moving out of my apartment and downsizing. Cat needs to go to the vet as he's licking himself to death. So doing great over here. Just fine. How're you?

1) Paranormal Park 2) Solar Opposites 3) Gravity Falls 4) She-Ra 5) Over the Garden Wall (is that a series? I dunno...)

Yes, however... Sometimes this is from insecurity, not envy. FOR ME, historically, those people have still felt happy for me ultimately. And I don't need to take responsibility for their grief. I may give grace too often or have not experienced negativity as much, though. Still a good point!

Me, a 42-year-old Millennial.

Forbidden romance. Power Strip: Don't you know I love you, Spacey? Space Heater: PS, you can't handle my love. I'll destroy you, myself, and everything around us. I'm protecting us both. PS: But we fit together perfectly! SH: A cruel creator's joke, I'm sure. Wall Outlet: Get in me, bitch!

That's it. From this moment forward, I'm referring to my top surgery as having had my "tits blown off". "Oh, what are those scars from, Finn?" "From when I had my tits blown off. Never could find the nipples." Genius. (Congrats @tacobellquarterly.org)

Fri-yay. Today I didn't go to work because my esophagus and stomach were still fried from being poked and scoped, did my dishes, got my prescription, toilet paper, Allegra, nutritional drinks, and protein bars. Today I accepted my fate as an old man. I want to name my Hiatal Hernia.

Thor's-day, the god of days. Today I woke up before the sun did and was driven to a place where they poked a hole in my arm, shoved a tube down my throat, and picked bits of my insides out to play with later. And I paid for it. My diaphragm is apparently a push-over. #Endoscopy #HiatalHernia

Monday, Monday. Today I went to the apartment office. I was given an extension on a decision to renew due to them not having the rent quote for when my lease ends. I was also reminded Monday is a very popular day for cafés to be closed. And I took a very long bath and pretended to be a fetus.

Happy Sunday Fun Day. Today I went to Mis Amores and met up with some friends, found out if I was a turtle I'd definitely want to choke on a heart-shaped straw, and wrote an entire journal entry with my non-dominate (right) hand...in cursive! Still having dread about whether to move or not.

TGI...wait, never mind, I work retail... Today I sprained my wrist, gave out more Christmas presents, and went to a great café called MisAmores and painted a ceramic book-shaped vase while being served samples of upcoming drinks.

Happy New Year! Today I journaled, swung on a swing set, and experienced vast amounts of dread as I continue to mull over the decision to not renew my lease and clean out 7 years of junk in 2 months! I have until tomorrow to make a decision. #Bleh #GiantTrashBags #Moving #Apartments

This thread.

#NewFixationUnlocked #SolarOpposites cc: @mikemcmahan.bsky.social I'm new here, has this been done, yet?

This! This this this! Fat people aren't bad. People with comb overs or who are balding aren't bad. Please stop conflating physical appearance with someone's character. People are ugly because they are mean and uncompassionate, not because of their bodies.

I haven't looked, but if someone hasn't posted a picture of themselves standing by their pansexual partner or friend, I'm going to be very disappointed.

On a Vyvanse Vacation today. Would take pictures, but can't focus my lens. #Badumpcha #Vyvanse #ADHD

I know nothing about baseball, but fortunately I'm following two people who are part of the fandom. ... It seems to be going well!

Ah. The dulcet sounds of the winter's eve smoke alarms throughout the complex waking up to running the heat for the first time for too chilly evenings after stubbornly wearing thick socks and robes to prevent the coming of higher electricity bills. Just call it an unscheduled test. cc: @cpsc.gov

I'm kind of in love with this form of escapism right now. The first electric car? Earlier than you think. A tiny fiat bus? Worth every contortion used to enter. A STEAM POWERED fire truck? I mean, c'mon. Clocks in future episodes? *hopeful look*

Never has the creak of paper straining sounded so ominous as when collecting a sampling for blood in fecal matter... #FacingMyOwnShit #Literally #Poke #Poke #PokePokePokePoke

I just started watching this show and am in fucking love. This is the exact escape I've needed. Thanks for causing a scene, Elon and Co!

There's a sale over on www.ciaraioch.com/artprints on the spookier prints - the perfect opportunity to pick up something a little creepier for the cherished undead in your life 🧟

Here's an illustration showing the anatomical similarities between structures of the clitoris (on the left) and penis (on the right), going for a little walk together.

Female gaze or male gaze aside (which as an asexual nonbinary person is just...baffling in every way possible), this is more of an obsession with body size gaze and, tbh, gendering our cultural body dysmorphia triggers seems the least of our issues. (Get it? That was a magazine joke.)

Also, deepest apologies for reposting this and probably messing up the 666 repost count it was at. I dunno, I just really loved that juxtaposition.

My reminder that Christianity ❌= bad. Christians can love trans, queer, minority, and disabled people and want them to thrive in equity because it is not only rational to do so, but compassionate. Society is responsible for mangling Christianity because power is king over integrity and kindness.

Shit. I think I'm just a shit-posting account replying to the @cpsc.gov on this site. Damn, I really do go for niche identities online, huh? Anyway. I like clocks and do art but also poke the Consumer Product Safety Committee social media account because escapism but also safety!

I like it when I'm a part of something. I like it when I'm a part of something that encourages the social media account for U.S. Consumer Product Safety to explain the anatomy of a sentient hot dog. *don't leave your food unattended when grilling to prevent fires #ExoBuns #SymbioticDogBun

I'd trust Kronk over him. #Kronk4Prez

This genuinely made me feel better?

Heh. Same though. Whew! Who is these days, though? Amiright?! Pssh! Anyyywho.

Everything is too much. I would like to cultivate more balance on my timeline. Even in the "Quiet Posters" filter, I am getting overwhelmed. Does anyone have any recommendations on who to follow for escapism to mix with my brutal, raw reality accounts? #Escapism #Balance #Drowning

"No one knows whether the (3.5% rule) will hold if people consciously try to mobilize to achieve the threshold." I encourage everyone to read this follow-up Q&A by @chenoweth.bsky.social. Hope still lives, but we need momentum, cohesion, and organization. www.hks.harvard.edu/sites/defaul...

Maybe someone can help me with my ignorance. So, we're at the 3.5% of people who dissent against the current leadership that can realistically overthrow a dictator. What's next? What do the steps after having the right amount of people look like? What does it look like to put this in action?

Upped my "I'll just do it myself" skills by doing it myself and not calling spotty apartment maintenance. Bought (more) cardigans. Started growing a mustache. More puns. Had lower back pain. "Music these days..." Nearly killed myself on a ladder. Loved my younger friends and cats fiercely.

Across the nation, we're taking to the streets to voice our dissent against the Trump administration's abuses of power. In solidarity with each other, we will not back down in defense of our rights.

I've set up a small monthly donation to the @aclu.org today. 🚫👑 #NoKingsDay

Governor Walz has recommended that we cancel No Kings events across Minnesota because the individual who assassinated a Democratic lawmaker is still at large. For the safety of all involved, we are cancelling events across the state that are not already underway.

Know your rights when protesting, including immigration rights, and review some protest tips from our organizing team.

PSA: If you’re protesting today, turn the biometrics on your phone OFF. No facial recognition, no fingerprint, PASSCODE ACCESS ONLY. Law enforcement can make you unlock your phone with those, but they can’t make you use your passcode. That gives you a case in court should they go that route anyway.

Know your rights before you hit the streets. Peaceful protest is protected — but only if you know how to protect yourself legally. Read, share, and stay safe.

Man, this dramatic reality tv style breakup sure is distracting. #ElonAndTrump Elon 💔 Trump. Sure would be a shame if something drastic happens while everyone's looking at this. I mean...more drastic. Which...wow. Well that's terrifying. 👍🏻👍🏻

This is the only news coverage I need of The Real Douches of Capitol Hill.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.
