the weather has been so boring here that there was an algorithm slop article this morning with the headline "RECORD COLD AND SNOW IN SEATTLE" talking about some time the weather was interesting in the 1950s

i think over 90% of the emails i get from amazon are them desperately trying to get me to listen to two free audiobooks, and each one is pretending this is some rare deal i have lucked into with some immense great fortune why are they so horny for me to listen to audiobooks

at some point the property managers of seattle seem to have collectively decided to salt the shit out of the sidewalks any time the temp dips below freezing gotta make sure those hilly sidewalks are nice and slippery with salt i guess, since it sure ain't gonna precipitate

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

saw bruce harrell out jogging. very odd experience

this isn't being reported on enough because capitalism owns the media, but: the last time there was a general strike in the US, according to most sources, is 1946. www.fox9.com/news/mn-lawm...

a sickly spring warmth a bright blinding cloudless sky it's january.

yes. there is somehow more horrible shit. keep walking. keep chewing. stay mad.

none of us are immune to propaganda or misinformation. i recently unwittingly reposted a story that turned out to be unverifiable & i have seen more fake stories circulating. yet ppl in the comments were stuck on "it feels emotionally true". that is a really dangerous place to be. that's not okay.

if i am ever killed by the feds and someone describes my murder as "bait", i will haunt that motherfucker until the end of time

first post of the new year, apparently! continuing my voyage through the world of cinema which a movie that i technically have watched before www.vaudevillegho.st/the-virgin-s...

i love this building name it's not even a particularly tall building it's like 17 floors

REPENT 2 UR WEATHER LORDS

youtube has been recommending me this ten year old video on "why do mirrors flip horizontally but not vertically" for months now and i find this deeply insulting

i seem to have unintentionally made the work radio station good by adding "you're no rock n roll fun" by sleater kinney

did a little spoiler-free review of the cool new video game UNBEATABLE www.vaudevillegho.st/unbeatable-2...

any time some centrist bullshit starts going around just remember: it's never too late to start biting people

Internet Fact of the Day: the internet was invented in 1969 when John Internet, gazing upon the sewer system and seeing a vast nationwide network of assholes connected directly to each other, decided he could do better

new post! despite the title there were actually zero cats in this film www.vaudevillegho.st/cat-on-a-hot...

got corrected when i called them the tga awards, and rightly so i know now i should have called them the tga game awards i regret the error

yeah im watching TGAs: Twin Peaks Gblue Velvet Æraserhead okay there are not enough films with the right letters there

it is december, which means i once again forgot that music algorithms think leonard cohen's "hallelujah" is a christmas song

in the event anyone was waiting for the coveted vaudeville ghost endorsement before picking it up: UNBEATABLE is a good video game, strongly recommend

taking a moment to appreciate sleater-kinney's 2015 album "no cities to love." came back from a ten year hiatus to drop ten consecutive absolute bangers

calling it now, the “look for the helpers” of 2k26 is “look for the anarchists”

yr local transit app reporting that all the buses are 29 million minutes early is good, right

we are so back baybee! time to dunk on christmas www.vaudevillegho.st/dreaming-of-...

This is an extremely cool time to be a teacher. When students aren't using ChatGPT to do their homework for them, they're asserting they have a First Amendment right to get an A and your administration fires you if you don't give them an A. I'm so tired.

I did a thing awhile back where I picked bands from the 90s that I know from one song that I like and went and checked out their whole catalog and anyway Harvey Danger is good as hell

(guy who thinks magic: the gathering is just the name of the guy who hosts a game night at the local card shop) i can't believe he's resigning

Just feeling a bit hopeless scrolling lately. Here is something nice from the past:

maybe we could use another splash screen.

(Comforting the Gales of November after they came early) It’s actually normal, it happens to lots of gales

i just want to say, to the liberals who are experiencing frustration with the democratic party right now: this is what it feels like to be a leftist, like, 100% of the time

i am pleased to report that sandwiches are woke now

Trump sign update: Prominent Farmers For Trump sign I drive past all the time is gone, though I did see an Abolish Congress Keep Trump banner on an abandoned church if you'd like a metaphor.

please vote in your local municipal elections on Tuesday (if you have one).

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell has made 39 official announcements in the two months leading up to next week's election, compared to 21 for the same period last year. This is not considered a use of city resources for campaigning despite the very obvious ramp-up just before the election.

Halloween is the only holiday where you get rewarded for being bad. For people like you and me? It is our high holy day.

i think the best part about being alive in tyool 2025 is that when you hear someone say they are advocating a "common sense" position you can determine with absolute certainty that they are about to spew some of the most disingenuous bullshit you have ever seen

convincing a little green spider that my tea kettle isn't a great place to be hanging out when i'm about to boil some water

weather.com's website is getting unusably bad, are there any good alternatives out there
