I dislike Cybertrucks and side-eye anyone who owns one, but i reserve a special hatred for whoever drives the Cybertruck i saw today with the little moustache above the grill.

Attention, plush pierogi fans. Sourcing options in replies! Cc: @ribbonknight.bsky.social, from whom i found this thread.

Because someone asked for it, I made "It's Pronounced Zeen" totes! Every tote sale goes directly to the Disability Justice Microgrant Fund. wildramppublishing.com

Opened tiktok for awhile and was immediately greeted by a video saying Hunter Biden not being in the Epstein files is unsurprising since sex workers have been saying how respectful he was and how well he tipped. The video closed out by saying "Hunter Biden loved two things grown women and crack" ☠️

10 million AO3 users! What a milestone! So should it move out of beta or like nah

As a gardener / forager / winemaker, i'm perfectly aware that overripe fruit will start fermenting on the ground, on the tree, et cetera. I had somehow failed to apply this same principle to the oranges i bought a month ago and left sitting on the countertop.

Omg, JAKE SISKO?!?!

so much clothing is marketed as "conversation starters" but as an introvert, i want "conversation enders." no more talking. let me go home.

Who amongst us, honestly

Just discovered the American Chemical Society reactions channel

Looking at YOU, Costco! Furthermore, while you're already emailing me daily, you ESPECIALLY don't need to send me push notifications thru' the app!!

First they went for the teen girls, and the rest of us said LOL LMFAO GOOD LUCK WITH THAT, BRO🍿

INSPITE OF BEING JUST A MATRICULATE If you ever wonder why i didn't bother finishing my bachelor's degree, despite working at a university for ~20 years, it was to annoy the shit out of this kind of guy SPECIFICALLY Yes, people did regularly assume i had a master's. Yes, i did savor their shock. 💅

As someone who was so stressed out at their last job that they had panic attacks (first ever!) and heart palpitations, nearly collapsed on a walk with my spouse, took myself to the urgent care one morning *and still worked afterward*, i really hope Julie Le quits and gets a nice, long vacation.

If your reaction to seeing someone object to a white person's use of AAVE is to defend it as "specifically queer vernacular", then you are uninvited to Pride.

Mamdani apparently just pulled the kid out of the Omelas hole. Turns out we could've done it anytime

Oh, @tuesdaysjulynever.bsky.social and i are almost certainly COGNITIVE LOAD IMPLICATIONS OF ACRONYMS REFERRING TO OTHER ACRONYMS

There's so much about major social organizing campaigns that is serendipitous... The stories we tell in the aftermath make these actions look much more coherent and intentional than they were in real time...

We're working on building a new desk for me, and so it's nice to be able to customize the height for exactly ME. Thing is, i am not a tall person. Desk basically looks like a kindergartener's.

Illustrator Chris Piascik has made several of his “Fuck ICE”/”No Kings” pieces available for free, high-res download. Print them out and use them for protest signs. (via @unlikelywords.bsky.social) [chrispiascik.com]

Need everyone to tell me what their fave vids are, pls

I can’t stress this enough. The state of 4th Amendment law is that the cops can’t force you to type in a passcode but they can force you to swipe your finger or present your face. Never stop using passcodes/passwords to unlock your devices. And consider additional code to unlock Signal.

This is how I feel about men and eyelashes.

When the cat dashes thru the hallway and past the door to the living room, like a creature in the sort of horror film where you never show the creature.

Outside the Level 2 Reading Room in @bodleian.ox.ac.uk there is a wellbeing display. Here are some it's little zines that genuinely made me smile.

Zine drop-in hours at @spl.org's ZAPP space for winter!! ❄️📓 www.spl.org/event-calend...

Apparently xAI and SpaceX are in talks to merge and I just imagine Mike Meyers doing his Elon Musk impression, running back & forth between two sides of a table yelling at himself.

Thys was my Heated Rivalrye

You know how there was that trend that was like men are always thinking about the roman empire? I'm always thinking about the Columbian Exchange.

Bertram Wooster, gamer. Oh yes, these are GOOD. Screenshots of the posts (with alt text) in the thread. Shared the Tumblr originals with spouse abt a year ago, so they're all @errantpedant.bsky.social approved.

As someone born in upstate New York (Poughkeepsie, don’t steal my identity), here is the definition of upstate: The upstate city you’re in is where upstate starts; anything south is just greater NYC. I had a college classmate from the northern NY border with Canada. He had achieved upstate nirvana.

@liseuse.bsky.social Think of you on this International Holocaust Remembrance Day. (But also, a VERY happy birthday! I hope you're having a splendid time!!)

Carving a linocut is just so soothing.

Spouse is watching "Weapons", and already he has complaints. "That's a Pennsylvania license plate, but that doesn't look like the liquor store setups *i* remember!" SO PROUD

So much is shit in this country at the moment, but local video store and archive @scarecrowvideo.bsky.social just announced that THEY BOUGHT THEIR BUILDING, and this is such a HUGE triumph for an arts organization in Seattle right now. Congrats, gang! Thanks for keeping the neighborhood weird.

Delighted to learn that Jorts is a sumo fan.

when Spock does the neck pinch, even on bad guys, he always catches them and sets them down very politely. letting this guy fully just drop, leaving Jim to try to awkwardly scramble to catch him, is Vulcan for "it is always morally right to punch Nazis"

🎼 I’m gonna keep on dancing at the Prancing Pony Inn

Gandalf was detained when captured by Saruman, so he was too late to meet the hobbits at the Prancing Pony. Good thing Aragorn was there.

Gandalf's "a wizard is never late, nor is he early" and Kesha's "Now, the party don't start 'til I walk in" are essentially the same sentiment

Need to buy this and build a desk on top of it for my fidgety spouse. If i hook it (the treadle, not the spouse) up to a generator, i think i can cut our electric bill by at least half. www.seconduse.com?post_type=it...

Then she asked about the moon and I was immediately out of my depth

It finally happened. My 3yo asked me “why does the sun shine?” and I responded by conversationally reciting the entire lyrics of the TMBG song

I’d like to see Philadelphia post a duplicate on city property nearby with extra text about the removal of the originals.

“fuck ICE” “and also with you”

I’m crying I love people so much

I feel like half my timeline will enjoy this for one reason or another.

Hanging out with other trans folk printing up posters on old letterpress equipment sounds like the ONLY way to spend Valentine's Day. This could also be YOU, Pugetopolis! partnersinprint.org/event/trans-...

@were-duck.bsky.social I need to share this article with you for the line "Bookstores are like sharks. They have to move or they die, and so you have to change." www.dailyuw.com/article/5422...

I have been thinking it might be time for a season 1 rewatch....
