OFFICIAL MET GALA THREAD STARTS HERE

Here's another watercolor I made for myself a few years back. Big hearts to everyone it might resonate with. 💜

That makes one of us, bitch

Share a YouTube link of the best song you think other people on here haven’t heard.

if you have fingers, you, too, can make a haiku you’ll need seventeen

Listening to infosec people freak out over Mythos is so tiring. Like, bro, your local water treatment plant runs Windows XP, your mobile provider's hardware is older than you are, and the protocol that routes internet traffic is secured by everyone just agreeing that hijacking it would be uncool.

It’s the 250th year of American independence, and the Pope and the King of England are reminding Americans of their revolutionary values, principles, and ideals Somewhere, John Adams is confused as fuck

FUCK I ALMOST FORGOT happy bruno mars being surprised to see pete wentz day

This is coming from a place of warmth and acceptance… -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It’s ‘one fell swoop’ -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’

You can always change your mind. 🐌

Do you know what they call a lesbian army? A Militia Etheridge.

Just made myself some delicious yet extremely gringo-ass migas AMA

The most recent meme in your camera roll describes your current mental state

Something you probably don't really get when you are younger is how much outliving your enemies becomes a big goal

the reason a lot of women who are critics of gAI understand very clearly the rhetoric of AI pushers who want to defang critiques ("hysterical," "angry," "hysterical", "irrational") is because some of us at least encounter these descriptors any time we have an opinion, no matter how measured it is.

A Nissan Sentra weighs a little more than 3,000 pounds (I picked a small, common car) An Aventon Level 3 E-bike weighs 67 pounds (plus rider weight) These things do not pose remotely the same risk when traveling at 28 mph. I am begging people to understand basic physics.

You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

These are all quotes from Frasier.

A silver fox Frenchman called me "charmante" in the jardin de Luxembourg

we all know I have no life, so:

This is the cutest stinkin' thing I've seen in a hot minute

This was a really good read

This is makes me happy

there was a Shiba parade in San Francisco and all the shibas wore yukatas it’s too much

Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.

Always apropo

Oh you’re Catholic and you disagree with the Pope? Maybe you should make a list of all the things you disagree with. Really dig deep, make it a nice long list. 95 seems like a good number. And then post that list somewhere he can see it, like maybe nailed to a church door.

@jelenawoehr.bsky.social pls spread to your local networks!

does anyone have a 3 bedroom apartment in rogers park i can move into expeditiously. probs a long shot but worth asking

San Francisco folks, “Steal This Story, Please!” Is showing at the Roxie from April 17-23 (I made the music)

Trump like "could a pedophile do this?" and then posts a genAI slop image of himself as Jesus resurrecting Jeff Epstein in order to fight the Pope. It's unclear what move he was attempting to do.

Eric Adams captures Bigfoot, as the astonished press corp assembles before him Adams removes a mask on Bigfoot, revealing it to be Eric Adams. The press corp looks back to Adams 1, who removes his own mask, underneath is comedian Paul Reiser. The press corp looks back, both have disappeared.

I'm the daughter of an Army paratrooper who refused orders during our illegal invasion of Vietnam back in the day. He went to LBJ military jail. Dad taught his girls this: "Just following orders" is NEVER any excuse for anyone who's complicit in war crimes. You MUST refuse heinous orders.

pope says call your fucken reps reps.fyi

Just announced: Stern Grove Festival returns this summer with a stacked lineup of 11 free concerts, including Al Green, Public Enemy, Suki Waterhouse, and more, every Sunday from June 14 to August 16 🌼 🎶 Stay tuned for ticket drops six weeks ahead of each show!

The main frustration is that the energy Dems take to pretty much anything does not match the absolute terror the Dem base lives in every day and the Dem base is beyond desperate for someone to match their emotions and urgency, and we frankly never see it in the supposed interests of decorum

I am not one of those who believes that history repeats, but consider the following from Herodotus: the Oracle at Delphi told the fabulously wealthy King Croesus that if he invaded Persia he would "destroy a great empire." Croesus invaded and lost--the empire he destroyed was his own.
