I really need to put regular cat claw trimmings on the calendar instead of waiting until I’m absolutely shredded to realize it’s past due. Can you try jumping off my lap without eviscerating me?

I thought Aesop had outrageously priced hand soap that I aspire to afford but Le Labo came in and said “hold my beer”.

The people yearn to sit next to sweaty strangers in ever-tinier seats. Thigh-to-sweaty-thigh.

Catching up on #StrangerThings, watching season 2 and keep thinking Billy looks so much like Chad Lowe at that age, it’s weirding me out.

You will be visited by 3 spirits

Well the cold front that is making the Bay Area miserably cold is going to last just long enough for me to get on a plane and go to an even colder city. So I guess, see you in the new year, California weather? 😔

It’s very funny to me that countries are trying to pass laws banning teens from social media until they’re older and can “handle it” as if the last decade hasn’t been about watching rich middle aged men nuke their brains on Twitter and then run the USA via shitpost.

Just imagining the gingerbread cookie makers working overtime to slap on little gingerbread dicks

How do I have 2 seasons of Stranger Things as “watched” on my Netflix acct but I don’t remember anything past S1 ep 5? What fugue state was I in when I watched this? Anyway, bingeing yo catch up.

1896-2025 🪦

New Luigi just dropped. futurism.com/future-socie...

All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

Be nice to your Bay Area friends this week. We just found out we lost our albino alligator, Claude, mascot of Cal Academy of Sciences. SF is in mourning. 😢

Frog knocked at Toad’s door. “Toad, wake up,” he cried. “Come out and see how wonderful the winter is!” “I will not,” said Toad. “I am in my warm bed.”

The Wishing Tree Women breaks down in a what? 1940s Rolls? wtf is this car? Takes a ride from a stranger, brags about being chairperson of something nobody’s heard of, then makes everyone uncomfortable by talking about her cancer. The exposition is strong in this scene.

Oh no, there’s a Tony Robbins Network? We’re just mainstreaming MLM cults now? I mean, I guess we always have.

Going to figure out how to watch Hallmark Channel movies without paying for hallmark channel and live-skeet them here for your torture. I’m nothing if not giving.

At the end of this Thanksgiving weekend: I’m grateful both of my parents are alive, because every month that goes by it becomes more tenuous. I’m grateful to have a job, but also my union that I helped organize, because things can always be better. I’m grateful for pebble ice - I am an addict.

if you’re cold they’re cold let your demons in

imo if you want to get back in power your slogan should be "If you elect us we will prosecute everyone in government who has violated the law"

See, now this is the kind of cold I can get behind. 3-4 days, all symptoms above the neck. Easy peasy.

It’s a Thanksgiving miracle: the electric wall heater that kept shutting itself off last year has decided to work this year. Thank you, turkey jeebus.

Companies having “Black Friday” sales online from nov. 20th…🙄 Bitch, we used to assault and battery each other over cabbage patch dolls.

I follow Martha Stewart on IG because she has the most hilarious, out-of-touch posts ever but she’s currently IN a slot canyon in Arizona instead of watching her servants polish her silver and I gotta give it to her. Well-played, diva.

remember, folks,

why is there a heartwarming commercial for tiktok. tiktok is not for “bringing people together.” it’s for watching videos of twentysomethings get so drunk they fall down a well

Gotta say, I’m enjoying the alertness all of this Sudafed is providing. I can see why meth is so popular. You can get a lot done in a day.

Anybody got a cold that started with JUST sneezing or am I having some bizarre winter allergic reaction? Watch this space for future sore throat whinyness.

Kind of grateful I went to night 3 of David Byrne in SF because it was so great, I probably would have bought another ticket and gone again (but ya girl’s broke!) This pic doesn’t do justice but I kept my phone in my pocket most of the night. So, so good.

NYTimes Cooking IG today: “Sometimes you want a cake but don’t want to put pants on.” Sometimes? SOMETIMES?!

I love that, as a species (and other species frankly), no matter how long we live we all seem to be flabbergasted by daylight unsavings every year.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Tiffany is selling a $6600 scorpion necklace right now, in case you’re wondering what to get me for Christmas. ♏️

Just saw a video of Dean Koontz for the first time and was not prepared for the haircut.

Watching The Invitation and, 20 minutes in, I already like Will. Always be suspicious and never trust your ex, my guy. These bitches be up to something. 😒

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

every generation loves Rumours. it’s fucking Rumours

According to his IG, Werner Herzog is in San Francisco right now. BOLO

Please diagnose me: I can’t stop eating ice or celery. What is this late-stage desire for the crunch? #medicalsky

I get text alerts for a local comedy club, to remain nameless, but the “secret” shows of famous comedians coming through town are always the worst, canceled men in the biz. Except W. Kamau Bell, who is awesome, but I think I have to miss it. Anyway, no I don’t want to see Chapelle or Aziz.

Started watching a Jim Jarmusch film and realized I wasn’t high enough for a Jim Jarmusch film about 3 minutes into it. Problem handled. Let’s try this again…

Me: “Yay, I have Tuesday off! I can do whatever I want!” My orthodontist: “Please confirm your appointment for Tuesday.” 😬

Been watching a lot of horror movies and I feel like a lot of these situations could be avoided by not living in the woods, going to a remote cabin in the woods to write, visiting a vacation home in the woods…basically just avoid the woods. I blame Woods.

Alright Libs, listen the fuck up. Zohran just gave you the path to victory. "But NYC isn't the same as the whole country" SHUT THE FUCK UP! Zohran paved the way. All you have to do is walk it. Stop moving to the right, and campaign on working for the working class.

Just throwing it out there for the Dem establishment…people outside NYC want folks like Mamdami too.
