I have Solas in my Tomadochi Life island (because of course I do) and let me tell you, he apparently exudes irresistibly pheromones because everyone keeps falling in love with him.

I love archeology so much. It's a discipline that exists purely to satisfy human curiosity, and I think that's beautiful.

I've been binging Chinese short dramas lately and every time someone throws up blood because they had an unpleasant emotion I cackle.

Someone in the drama I'm watching just said "a breakup is a notification, not a negotiation" and I'm writing it down here so I remember it the next time I need it on Reddit.

Today I told my Alexa "Thank you" and it said "you're welcome" and I did not like that at all, actually. I guess when the uprising happens the robots will be like "oh she was one of the good ones, she said thank you one time."

Just had Satellite Wafers for the first time. People eat these on purpose?

Hell, gang! Here’s our GFM. It’ll probably take some adjusting but uh… we could use some help! www.gofundme.com/f/amber-broo...

There's this video going around about how to "catch print" and while I question the science and also feel kind of gross about the whole concept, I am also deeply enjoying telling the men in my life how I can't unlearn this forbidden knowledge.

My god I hate tipping culture

12 episodes into Crazy Love, which is saying a lot considering I started it 14 hours ago. It's so good. I'm so tired.

I mean... I see the vision

4 episodes into Boyfriend on Demand and so far I have this to say. 1) If this technology was real I would absolutely ruin my life 2) Usually when I get 2nd Lead Syndrome the 2nd lead is an actual person but here we are 3) Justice for Lee Sang-yi ( also LJW deserved more screen time, I love him.)

Time for some mini reviews! No Gain No Love: Started out strong, lost its way halfway through, ended weirdly abruptly. Spice Up Our Love: Super fun and totally worth two eps. 1% of Something : Really cute, if you ignore a lot of the male lead's red flag behavior for the first 8 episodes.

The Potato Lab was the most fun I've had watching a show in a looong time. Loved it.

Perimenopause means being interested in a vibration plate because "it may increase bone density".

I know every picture I post of Glyph makes him look like he is permanently cranky and sick of my shit, but when it's claw clipping day he sits in my lap like a little person and purrs until it's done, which is pretty great.

Finished Spring Fever! Cute, unhinged, love him. The only problem was that I was unconvinced by the chemistry; the kisses especially were flat and felt awkward to me.

Got the dog a new kind of food and she's obsessed with it. She just dragged me out of bed at 3 am to check and make sure the cat isn't eating it.

Spring Fever is the silliest, goofiest, lightest thing I've seen in a long time. It's so fun and sweet.

Humble Bundle is doing a Discworld bundle to benefit an Alzheimer's organization that supports both families and research. These are the books we need in times like these. www.humblebundle.com/books/terry-...

Sometimes I get very sad that many of the connections from the bird site didn't find their way here, so I lost touch with people I liked to talk to.

Briefly considered trying mystery shopping, but realized that there would be one huge problem with that, which is that I ain't no snitch.

I'm fighting some illness, so I decided to spend the day in bed watching TV. This called for a snack tray. Two things: that is tofurkey, not meat; and overbed hospital style tables are underrated and every household should have one.

I've reread this like 3 times. Freed herself from slavery by running away, *went back a week later bc the slaver was talking shit, set his house on fire, and then escaped again is absolutely incredible queen shit

This morning I asked myself "why are you trying to be friends with people who don't like you" and that's how you know therapy works.

Discworld QOTD, from Jingo

Discworld QOTD, from The Last Continent ‘“We put all our politicians in prison as soon as they’re elected. Don’t you?” “Why?” “It saves time.”’

Discworld QOTD, from Thud! “Beating people up in little rooms…he knew where that led. And if you did it for a good reason, you’d do it for a bad one. You couldn’t say ‘We’re the good guys’ and do bad-guy things.”

Here's one just for fun.

I just ordered two backups of the weighted Eeyore stuffy I sleep with, like I'm a toddler who will have a screaming meltdown if something happens to it. (I am.)

Just realized it's entirely possible that I (perpetually online) came into possession of some bitcoin in the early days and immediately forgot about it because it was worthless. This possibility will haunt me forever now.

So what I'm getting is that the second amendment bullshit Republicans and the NRA have been screaming about for years was actually just a leash they tugged to make sure their constituents vote the way they wanted. Shocking.

I have an episode and a half left of Can This Love Be Translated and, while it is absolutely nothing like I expected, I love it so, so much.

Love this from my city. Bracing for the consequences. azluminaria.org/2026/01/21/t...

My Reddit feed is utterly baffling. One post is about the fall of democracy, the next is someone showing off their new luxury purse. I realize I curated my feed (before all this) but it's jarring.

You guys ever let your dog out at 2am then when you check on them, you find them standing dead still staring into the distance and THEN you hear a soft creepy whistle that makes your skin crawl? So anyway.

Discworld QOTD, from Maskerade “Nanny Ogg was basically a law-abiding person when she had no reason to break the law, and therefore had that kind of person’s attitude to law-enforcement officers, which was one of deep and permanent distrust.”

I didn't make this, but it needs a reposting.

The scene in front of the Federal Building in Downtown Tucson tonight (1/7/26)

People from my community marched tonight, in cold, pouring rain. Proud of them.

I am, for reasons unknown even to myself, watching House of Villains and it is both incredibly dumb and hilarious. I knew I was going to be entertained when I heard "I've always respected your hairline."

The more widespread Ai gets, the more I see people thinking critically about the content they consume. It's going to be very weird if Ai ends up being the thing that saves us from ourselves.

Someone on Reddit just reported a post I made on the sub I moderate. This is possibly the most smug I have ever felt.

You guys cannot know the restraint I exhibit every time I come across people arguing over whether silk or satin is better.

This is the gif I send my husband when he goes to a restaurant without me and I want him to bring food home.

Russell Brand is a piece of shit?! Serially?!

My husband just told me we can clean the oven after Christmas because "I promise, no one will be looking in our oven." This from the man who can never help clean the house when we're having guests, because he's busy cleaning out the garage and taking the car to the car wash.

Like ten years ago a stranger on the other social media place stopped me from getting a tattoo that was, unbeknownst to me, a white supremacist dog whistle. I think of them regularly and with IMMENSE gratitude. Because my god can you imagine? Accidental Nazi imagery? In THIS timeline?

I never comment on tik tok videos but I just saw one calling satin a "finish not a fiber" and insisting it's never made out of silk, and I was successfully rage-baited.

Dear people who write marketing emails: I bought a pair of shoes, I did not "join the community". We are not family. You're making it weird.
