Happy birthday to the late Phil Hartman, born #onthisday September 24, 1948. Today would've been his 77th birthday. He would often take requests to do custom answering machine messages as Troy McClure. (video: take2markTV) #TheSimpsons

You ever ask for something at work and you make a big, long argument for why you should get your way and your boss just says, “Sure, that’s fine”? Anyway, I get to remove my direct phone line from my email signature now. This is a huge win in my ongoing quest to be bothered as little as possible.

Move over Labubu. The newest collectors craze is Milwaukee's Littlest Print Shop. It's a retro-style mobile art vending machine that dishes out prints for just $0.50.

hello, i made this bot. i am a trans autistic anti-fascist. you are following a work of trans autistic anti-fascist art. that is why it is screaming

Called my health insurance company because I couldn't find answers in the formulary. I asked the CSR and they helpfully pointed out to me that I could search the formulary myself to get answers to my questions. "But it didn't have the answer," I said. The CSR responded by reading the formulary to me

This week is destined to be shitty but three things are keeping me going: 1. Leaving work early on Friday to 2. Get a massage before 3. Ren Fest on Saturday. Very extra excited for Ren Fest because I will be wearing my own clothing and not a borrowed costume and I will look amazing.

I'm very happy for Jimmy Kimmel and especially for all of his employees who make their livings by virtue of his television show but my Hulu will remain canceled because bowing to fascism once is one time too many.

Remembering Leonard Cohen, born on this date in 1934

Took in an amazing Shatner double feature today at @trylon.org. “The Intruder” was really great, a thoughtful story about a dark time in American history. “Incubus” was terrible in the most fun way and it was in Esperanto to boot! Enjoyed both movies so much that I got the poster for the series.

Today was a beautiful morning to explore around the Old Cedar Ave Bridge with @yarnchicken.bsky.social. We saw and heard so many amazing birds, spotted lots of cool fungi, and just enjoyed each other's company.

My college dorm neighbor had this album and my then-boyfriend (now husband) helped me rip the album to mp3 and then burn my own CD. Good times.

Took a pic in Eau Claire WI today that I like, and thought I’d share

On this date in 1977, the Fonz water-ski jumped over a shark.

Just a couple things I saw today.

Finally got a chance to sit down and do this. Easy and cheap streaming made me turn away from torrenting but I got bandwidth, time, and spite so see ya never, Hulu.

This bot is back!!!!! One of my favorites.

Excellent post-storm rainbow in the 55104

I like to play a game with this bot where I only "like" the posts if I have been to one of the four cities listed. This one is a twofer: Milwaukee and New Brighton. Good bot.

OH, SHIT, AUTUMN IS FUCKIN' CREEPING IN!

Upgraded to iOS 26. So far, I dig it. They made the “snooze” and “stop” buttons bigger on the alarm screen, which my old eyes and fat fingers appreciate.

Normally I spend the first 15-20 minutes of my day cleaning up emails. This morning I cleared my inbox in 4 minutes. Hoping this means today will be a chill day.

Went to bed at 9:30 pm so naturally I was up at 4 am. Fed the cat at 5:30 am and she thanked me by having the screaming zoomies (galloping up and down the stairs yowling).

Still seeking fellow Doctor Who fans to help out with my Doctor Who Game Show by filling out my survey for a Family Feud style game. Your answers will be used when the show debuts on Zoom in November. #DoctorWho

Oooh, my last post got auto-modded by Bluesky. Sorry to anyone if you were or could be offended by Prince's ass. He was a sexy MFer and I know some people can't handle it.

A very good friend of mine just moved into his own place after living in crummy circumstances. He's the biggest Prince fan I know so I bought him this print by the world's best Prince portraiture artist Dan Lacey. Happy housewarming, Bob!

It's still summer, technically, but today begins our FALL MEMBER DRIVE and perhaps you may be aware that under our current regime, your voices are more crucial than ever! Learn more and pledge your support at KFAI.org/donate! And continue to tell your friends about Fresh Air!

Very excited to learn tonight that I will be able to volunteer at one of my favorite events next year in a very visible way. If you thought I was excited about Convergence this year, just wait till #CVG2026, my babies!

Hoping to catch these on Sunday! Very excited for “Incubus” entirely in Esperanto!!

Just not feeling this week. I was supposed to be in Wisconsin for this time period but that fell through so I just keep walking around my house saying, “I’m not even supposed to be here today.”

Robin Yount, Milwaukee Brewers, 1984 Fleer

Cheech and Chong’s “Up in Smoke” hit theaters on this date in 1978.

Had a bad day a few weeks ago and bought this amazing caftan to make myself feel better. Wearing it today as I work because it makes me feel fucking fabulous.

Can’t wait to watch people drink this at Mystery Soda Panel at Convergence 2026!

Current* conditions near Port Rowan, ON:

Woke up totally wrecked from dancing all night, just sore all over, especially my legs. A very slow one-mile walk, an edible, ibuprofen, and a warm shower (in that order) has healed me but I’m taking it easy the rest of today.

Spectacular double rainbow near Halesworth just now.

a news free day is a gift you can give yourself

made a thing. stay kind cause everyone you know is completely exhausted.

I don't normally ever do the same manicure twice in a row, but I had to do this one over again because I tried a new technique. I think it turned out 10 times better than last time! Too bad it is a sensory nightmare due to the rough texture.

Danced my ass off last night with the beautiful people of Minneapolis to the music of the '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s with Jake Rudh at my new favorite venue, Zen Arcade. Anywhere you can boogie down and smoke a joint is tops in my book!

Fantastic Fungi for #ForestFriday 🌱

Wishing the happiest of birthdays to @coldchef.bsky.social, my favorite person to give the finger to. Here’s to many more years, my friend! 🖕

Current dog status

I couldn't hold out anymore. I had to do it. I bought VIP tickets to see JOHN freakin' WATERS with a post-show group therapy session and Q&A with JW himself. *faints*

what if mushrooms are alien to the earth and that's why they're so fucking weird
