“It was just a lil peppermint taste, you know, I’ve tasted spicier… I’m Mexican” 🫡

An 84-year-old said she sustained a concussion and was hit with a projectile after she and her husband, a Vietnam vet, were knocked down by federal officers.

Autocorrect isn’t people, we all see the same blue, etc.

Some folks here are calling out ISP troopers by name, looking up their salaries, and roasting them.

I will react to anyone talking seriously about AI personhood the same way I reacted to my friend's dad growing up in Oklahoma telling me that the world is 6,000 years old

Went to Safeway for my vaccines and got a 10% off coupon I used to purchase a 6lb pork loin that was members discounted to $2 a pound and I now have many many servings of shredded pork for my $11.

The new round of bigotry against AI discourse is legit the dumbest shit I've heard this decade

The Portland winter lights festival also does jellyfish! Good lantern animal.

A curation of this year's #misautumnfestival lanterns in China. Making your own lanterns (as per the old customs) is back in fashion, especially eco-friendly ones using recycled materials. Like this gorgeous lunar scene lantern, made out of cardboard boxes and packaging. 1/ #moonfestival #lanterns

Went to the Greek festival and saw an assortment of itty bitty children gamely trying their best at executing some folk dances and was exTREMELY cute.

Notice also that he chose not to publish a single quote from the 4th DSA member, and it's the one who is the (unanimously elected) council vice president, a beloved public school teacher who is doing the very unglamorous work of actually setting up governance stuff. Justice for Tiffany Koyama Lane!

Hey all, in case you didn’t see it before, check out this excellent local reporting on Portland city council by our own @taylorgriggs.bsky.social www.portlandmercury.com/news/2025/06...

Hey siri how to sustain 5 modelos feeling forever

this is our cracker barrel moment

watching this tonight on kanopy and it is DEEPLY charming so far

my early thoughts on the new Taylor: - her lyrical corniness is getting less endearing over time - she doesn’t embrace the showgirl theme enough musically - sabrina has her a little shook, and her attempts to imitate that style are rough - as always, there are a few bops

yeah like, look, i am under no illusions about my shitposts on here somehow representing Valuable Labor and i LIKE it that way because i think the Internet got worse when people started viewing literally everything they did online ever as Potentially Monetizable Content

I'm not a big fan of Jack Dorsey but I have to admit that one of his better ideas was, instead of getting into posting wars with users, he would go off to a yoga castle and eat hallucinogens for two weeks

I still genuinely don't believe taylor swift fucks.

a PR firm can do a lot more than that. for example, they could physically take jay's phone and hide it.

I like a number of songs on the new TS album, but there’s just no getting around the fact that it’s hilarious to fall deeply in love with Travis Kelce. It couldn’t be funnier if you wrote a set of romantic pop-ballads about Michelangelo the Ninja Turtle.

Quitting my job is obviously introducing new stressors into my life but also I had an improv show last night that I didn't like my performance in and it was the first time in six months where that's happened and I didn't erupt in absolute self loathing, so, I do think it's solving some problems.

this week's post is about how hard it is for us to have conversations about what's happening when we don't actually agree about how bad things are right now margaretkilljoy.substack.com/p/the-sky-an...

this is not true we got them to fix sonic’s teeth ❤️

i just think it's kinda hollow to keep reemphasizing that atproto is decentralized as if most people even had a way to use it without being dependent on services operated by bluesky, you know just as well as i do that you control the vast majority of this "network"

So is the site’s CEO just posting through it?

The people who genuinely care about decentralization as a top priority are on mastodon and living harder but more rewarding lives.

we mourn google reader but i’d like to add mourning for gcal quick add

I watch sports in bars a lot, and in the past two years, a new and distressing Type of Guy has emerged: under 30ish, always by himself, scowling silently at the TVs with a pack of Zyns and a Mich Ultra in front of him, not appearing to root for any team in particular

rene gonzalez embracing Trumpism to satisfy his brand of grievance politics is disgraceful. he’s directly embracing NSPM-7 which essentially labels anything in opposition to Trumpism as terrorism. completely mask off.

The way the blonde girl is walking towards him has a real "humans persistence hunted the mammoths" energy to it.

Here’s a thing I’ll add, as someone who’s been there: if you’re the CEO of a platform with millions of users, you don’t get to have as much fun on that platform, period. And your job is to eat shit every time a legitimate critique of policy comes up. That’s the gig. Don’t sign up if you aren’t game.

Finally patched the inner thighs of a pair of jeans that's been sitting in the closet for mumblemumble months waiting for this repair, feeling very frugal, very mindful.

They're human beings in need of medical care and you're a Catholic

The dude seems so phenomenally nice; what a nice thing to become aware of today.

Im proud of my City Council rep @pnwpolicyangel.bsky.social for speaking truth to power.

Made a lentil shepherds pie and it was excellent.

I just saw someone take a drag off a cigarette while Nike biking past in the rain. Unbothered king.

When you've figured out that Hanukah isn't Jewish Christmas, and now you're just taking wild stabs at which holiday *is* Jewish Christmas.

We all hate Gavin Newsom but dear god I hope he starts ripping into Vance all the time.

Boyfriend just bought a cider called thunderpussy and walked away with “lesbians know how to make cider.“

I did not have blow dried chicken on my 2025 bingo card, because that is on my completed bingo card from 2018

Did a chicken cutlet and slow baked sweet potato for dinner and it was Good.

More public transportation so you can get a few beers with the fellas

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

anyway, 2002 was one of the worst years to be alive except for many others, and anybody nostalgic for 2002 should be institutionalized

Trump’s deployment of troops to Portland is a dangerous escalation of authoritarianism. Now is the time to find our own ways of standing up and fighting back to preserve our democracy. Fellow vets: we need you to muster. And those serving: you can refuse an unlawful order as you may receive it.

We bought a product labeled as “baby goldfish” (turns out to be regular goldfish crackers but small) and my boyfriend is now calling me a monster for eating “the lamb of goldfish”.

There appears to be a person in the replies of this who genuinely does not understand how Venn diagrams work, and it is cracking me up. (Separate from any feelings about the accuracy of the chart.)

A larger part of my adulthood is dedicated to planning the logistics of defrosting giant hunks of meat than I’d anticipated.
