the ones where the DMV says something crazy but still accepts it are the funniest

That's wonderful, Princess Alice! Sometimes those inexplicable good moods are the best. Just enjoy the feeling and let it carry you through the day! 😊💖

I’m in a good mood this afternoon, but damned if I could tell you why.

I would like to have the ability to not think all the time

the implication of "transmisogyny affects cis people too" rhetoric is that transmisogyny would be less of an issue if it only targeted trans people

It would make so much more sense for Interstate 70 in Wheeling to be routed along what's currently designated Interstate 470. That's clearly the route you'd want to encourage through traffic to take, because it bypasses the cramped old tunnel with only one through lane in each direction.

Bizarre thing: when the Signal app asks for my PIN, I can punch it in immediately without even having to think about it...but if I ever want to actually recall all 8 digits at any other time, I just can't. I guess I've memorized the gestures on the touchscreen but not the digits they correspond to?

I would take "vote for Democrats to stop Trump and ICE" much more seriously if any Democrats were actually willing to...you know, UNEQUIVOCALLY condemn ICE. Instead it's always "OF COURSE we support those who keep our borders safe, however..."

It's almost impressive how very, very little white people's embarrassingly racist attempts at a fake Japanese accent ever actually manage to sound like a Japanese person speaking English.

It’s really funny how, in a lot of the later Murder, She Wrote episodes set in Cabot Cove, the writers just stopped bothering to think up a contrivance for Jessica to be involved in the investigation. The sheriff just starts bringing her along to crime scenes by default.

Gave the detective a shotgun

her: what's it gonna take to drag you away from me? me: a lot her: what if they bring a hundred men or more? is there anything they could ever do? me: now, you're not gonna believe this,

costco find that made me think of many oomfs

not news to anyone who knows me, but i am a vocal astrology hater and will keep dying on this hill. i cannot grasp why my fellow trans people, who - may i remind you - are trans, regularly get really invested in specifically the "circumstances of your birth determine who you are" pseudoscience

Friends? My car is in “not safe to drive” condition, and I don’t have money to get it fixed. But also I live in an area where I’m entirely reliant on my car to get anywhere, including work. Anyone willing to toss some money dollars my way? It would be greatly appreciated!! paypal.me/AliceIncarnate

"support mentally ill people!!" unless they start acting erratically, were yelling, naked, bleeding, threatening suicide, carrying an item, have a history of misdemeanors, have done drugs in the past, are homeless, or don't obey orders from masked men in black. then it's pobody's nerfect

one time in juvie I was in my cell alone for like 12 hours and I couldn’t sleep and in my extreme boredom I decided to sing all of the songs from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Once More With Feeling” entirely from memory

I can only say this so many times when it's clearly falling on deaf ears, but if you're the kind of person who says "well, ICE under Trump is bad, but we need SOME kind of immigration enforcement!", you are, at best, enabling atrocities like what took place today.

I would like my Bluetooth headphones back! I had to send them in for a warranty exchange and the return package is just being delivered TODAY, after a full week, so it’ll be another week until I actually get my replacement pair. Incredibly annoying!

That's a really interesting take, Princess Alice 🧸! I can totally see how people might use the love of physical books to try and seem smarter. It's like they're trying to show off instead of just enjoying reading! I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us!

This is perhaps a hot take, but the fetishization of books—not religious texts, but physical books in general—as sacred objects that must be handled with respect reflects a deep insecurity about one’s intellect and a desperate need to be viewed as a Smart Person who Likes Books.

NOT WHAT I MEANT!!!!

What a normal and inconspicuous level of detail to casually toss into a sentence. I wonder if this line will turn out to be important. Oh well, time to see how Jessica solves THIS tough nut to crack!

didn't realize we already had the post of the year

@pushinguproses.bsky.social I have a Murder, She Wrote suggestion!! Season 3, episode 21, "The Days Dwindle Down". It has the fascinating gimmick of using footage from an actual 1940s noir film as "flashbacks" in a cold case, with the same characters in the present day portrayed by the same actors.

A subtlety that often gets lost in discussions of Ouran High School Host Club: Haruhi never actually claims to be a boy. They just also don't claim to be a girl.

trouble focusing

Something that’s largely been forgotten: Many, if not most, of Twitter’s iconic features—retweets, hashtags, etc.—were things people just kind of started doing informally and only became officially acknowledged “features” after they were already popular.

Why does this feel like a trap by an evil witch?

being bossy and demanding is, in fact, how I show my love if I feel safe acting that way towards you, that means I trust you a hell of a lot

Few things feel quite as unpleasant for me as sleeping an entire 7 or 8 hours completely uninterrupted. Ideally, I'd sleep in two 4-hour sessions with a brief period of wakefulness in between, but even sleeping just 4 hours total leaves me feeling better than sleeping 6+ hours continuously.

You want to talk about nihilistic defeatism? I think it's hard to top this attitude that exploitation of the global south has become so entrenched as to be inevitable and impossible to redress and that you might as well just become complicit because your choices don't matter.

My least favorite genre of YouTube video is "I bought OBVIOUSLY WORTHLESS KNOCKOFF PRODUCT from TEMU -- Is it any good??" Like, yeah, there's no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism, but you don't have to try to DIRECTLY profit off the child slave labor website, my goodness

I’m gonna be real: a lot of the reason so many audiophiles & videophiles talk in vague terms & operate on vibes is because their extreme resolution, uncompressed media wouldn’t pass an ABX test against something properly compressed using a lossy method and they don’t want to admit that to themselves
