I've never deliberately interacted with anyone famous. The bag on John Deacon's foot & the cacciatore sauce on Lyle Lovett's hand were both accidents.

Aww. Most of the cartoons my son loved when he was a kid mystified me, but I loved Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Eduardo & Wilt were my favorites.

I hate shoot outs.

Dear Kraken, Please get your shit together. All my love, Sooz xox

I can only assume the Mammoth are already looking to trade Tanev.

WINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!

CANNER!!!!!!!!

I started learning Cornish via Zoom. Wanted to learn for literally decades - even bought these via the internet in the early 90s before shopping online was a thing. But the biggest accomplishment involved was having the courage to actually hop onto that 1st Zoom lesson & show face to some strangers.

If the US is capable of changing into a fascist, authoritarian state because of the result of one or two lost presidential elections, the blame for that does not lie at the feet of the country's swing voters.

I accidentally dropped a bag (very lightweight) on John Deacon's foot in the downtown Brandeis store in Omaha in 1981. (John Deacon was the bass player for Queen.)

Do you suppose anyone has ever pointed out to Rob that he doesn't actually have any talent?

Blue Wavers love to deride "purity tests" when they punch left & make excuses for Dem leadership, but this right here is the real "purity test" that's killing Dem chances -- this idiotic notion that engaging in retail politics is somehow beneath them.

Friendly reminder 💡

Buttfluph has a soybean processing plant. Depending on the weather & the day of the week, we alternate between sickly sweet bean smell, pigshit (Weds. at the sale barn) or cow shit (Fri. at the sale barn). We used to have a gummi bear factory, so sickly sweet candy smell used to have a turn, too.

Update: there was a guy at the UPS barn when I stopped by & he even walked out to my car to get the box! Hopefully, the return center gets it quickly & Amazon sends me a functioning Skylight soon. You can uncross your fingers now.

The enemy of your enemy is not always your friend. Sometimes they're just a different enemy

It's a little irritating that a fascist can just decide to go 'i don't like this other fascist' and a great deal of people respond with 'she just like me fr fr welcome to the tent we keep talking about for some reason.' a fascist hating another fascist doesn't make her antifascist you f-ing goobers

God forbid that Washington should expect some of its billionaires to actually pay their fair share.

I would not only vote for, I would absolutely work my ass off volunteering for a candidate who went fire-and-brimstone on a platform of utterly crushing people like Thiel, Musk, Zuckerberg, Andreeson, & that other evil little fuckwad whose name I'm blanking out on.

This dumbass is replying to me. Couldn't tell where they are from their profile, but I am pretty fucking sure that I know more about poverty & life in small towns than they do. And I'm pretty sure that my 3-figure Social Security payment & no savings account precludes me from being middle class.

And THIS, boys and girls, is why all those Blue Wave assholes who keep telling folks like me that we need Newsom in '28 need to fuck right off. (Well, this, the transphobia & the gleeful destruction of homeless encampments...)

I'm housing my adult child's Magic cards. Little bastard better cherish the fuck out of my Philipp Grubauer, Dan Wilson & Cal Raleigh Funko Pops when I'm gone.

Everyone keep your fingers crossed that there's someone at the Buttfluph UPS barn who will take my return box tomorrow. They don't have a customer service desk anymore, so even though Buttfluph is a small regional "hub" for the trucks, the closest customer service drop off is 25 miles away.

ON MEILLÄ EELI TOLVANEN!!!

Dammit Janet.

ON MEILLÄ EELI TOLVANEN!!!

Three minutes to go, I don't think it's too early for this:

There is no celebration

STEEVIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

EBBBBBBSSSSSSSS!!!!!

I was a bit older than the target audience of Sesame Street when it started, but my sister is 7 years younger & it was on every day in our house. I cannot tell you how much it made me long to live in a place where there were people with other cultures living together & sharing them.

Oh, that Sirens player’s last name *is* Bourbonnais. I wonder if she’s ever been to the town.

Torrent, Kraken, and Firebirds all playing at the same time is a bit too much.

Thanks to all those who’ve helped Bolts over the last few days! I just checked, and we’re now at roughly 93% of the goal we set… with 3 days of year-end push to go. We’re excited to enter 2026 with such a strong bedrock!

I need to set a timer when I turn off a hockey game during the intermission. Missed a Torrent goal. 😳 But, yay! Torrent have the lead again!

It me.

Trying to figure out if the announcers for this Torrent vs. Sirens game are biased towards the Sirens or if I’m being hypercritical.

Ooh. Forgot about the Torrent game & just turned it on to see that they've already scored!

Erm. I'm not a movie person & I've never seen him in anything, but the name isn't Italian -- it's Danish as fuck.

The high yesterday was 49F/10C. It is currently 19F/-7C with a "feels like" temp of -10F/-23C. My lungs do not like this one bit.

Today's DOOM LOOP for @soseaemerald.bsky.social: "The Last One of the Year" See the whole thing here: southseattleemerald.org/voices/2025/...

Drinking coffee and doomscrolling are the only activities on the agenda today.

Blizzard conditions in Buttfluph. Not much snow on the ground yet, but I can barely see the highway out which is about 1 city block north of me.

HE IS SUCH AN EVIL STUPID SONOFAGODDAMNBITCH, I CAN'T FUCKING STAND IT. The SOONER that fucker gets reunited with his father, the better. I will NOT apologize for thinking this.

Not sure why, but I still have to take a moment to remember who Ryan Lindgren is every time he's included in one of the Kraken social media posts. I feel bad about this.

LOOOOOO MOOOOOO!!!!!!

There is certainly no love lost between the Firebirds & Canucks.
