#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge #L'ArcEnCiel 6 L'Arc~en~Ciel - New World I'm just taking my sweet time with these, aren't I?

America is really in trouble beyond the politics. The behavior of people in mundane, everyday personal interactions is just appalling. Just got threatened and filmed for asking someone to allow me to pull out of my parking space, including my license plate. People are truly awful.

Nothing anyone can say will ever make me believe a single thing the "authorities" say about the Kirk killing.

I do not get the moments of silence and lowering of flags for Kirk. He was not an elected official or anything. He was a highly partisan taking head. Liberals need to stop with this shit.

You know one thing I really hate about Kpop and Kpop fans? Out of 500 "news" articles, most of the headlines will essentially be "She's Pretty." ("Such-and-such stuns in purple!/at awards show!/in new video!") It's literally the only value these women are assigned.

Just had some twatwaffle get mad at me because I wouldn't spoonfeed him language of how to explain mRNA vaccines to people. I advised him to learn about central dogma so he can understand it himself. I was being sincere. He got angry and started stalking my other posts to insult me.

Academia is so broken that to get a postdoc job, the job requirements must be nearly 100% identitical to exactly what you did in your PhD. No one will ever post a job listing that duplicates my PhD, so I will never get a fucking job.

#LittleBookTunes #MusicChallenge Aug 27 hide - Beauty & Stupid Quite sure I've posted this, but what can I say? RIP hide

#ElectricGuitarForAll #MusicChallenge Buck-Tick - 獣たちの夜 RIP Atsushi Sakurai

Trying to create a social security account online is impossible. You have to take photos of your ID and yourself, and the link they send you by phone to do it is broken. If you call tech support, there are no people to talk to. Our SS office was open for 3 hours today. And this is all by design.

My dance group is letting someone contagious with covid perform with us. Now I have to quit the group and I hope she dies from long covid. I hate the world with a burning passion.

Just proudly added "kpop demon hunters" to my mute list. Kpop and feminism don't belong in the same sentence. I don't know what this brainwashing shit is but you're all being played.

#ElectricGuitarForAll #MusicChallenge Aug 23 Miyavi - Firebird I feel like I've posted this before, but I like it, so ha.

First sexual harassment experience while driving for Lyft. It's only my 4th day. It's 2025 - WTF are we doing? (I reported it and Lyft had me connected with a specialist in about 45 seconds and they've already followed up extensively.)

Downloading Ubuntu today. I promised myself I'd make my system dual boot when I finished school. All the talk in Canada about Microsoft providing data to the US gov't convinced me it's time. I have to keep MS for some stuff but want to make Ubuntu my go-to for everything else. New stuff to learn!

#ElectricGuitarForAll #MusicChallenge Aug 22 Kim Jaejoong - Mine As someone who'd followed Jaejoong for a long time and knew what was going on at this time, the lyrics and imagery in this song/video were so powerful. Him ripping those chains off and "나를 비춘 태양마저 가리려 하지마." 🥲💚

Just blocked a brand new account posting helpful mommy videos about packing snacks for your kids and stuff like that. Almost guaranteed to be a right wing influence op.

Am learning a lot of people don't tip on Lyft. Maybe half. You people suck.

So I just finished my PhD. Now I drive for Lyft and it won't even come close to paying the rent. Thanks, Trump & Elon!

Got an email from the Korean retailer from whom I buy skin care products about a 15% surcharge on all orders to the US. So, reason #16,230 to say FUCK YOU to the Donald Trump regime. This shit serves no purpose at all.

Watching @dimension20.bsky.social exposes the viewer to novel language. Today's set of words I didn't expect to hear together: ice cream plinth. 🍨😂

#LittleBookTunes #MusicChallenge Aug 19 Iceman - Space Dreamer The closest I can come to sharing this is a no-vocal cover. 😭 Thanks for RR-synth for keeping Iceman alive. 😭

#ElectricGuitarForAll #MusicChallenge Aug 18 FAKE? - Taste Maximum Sadly, this music video has disappeared from Youtube except for a clip that is so distorted it's both unwatchable and unlistenable. 😵

Sitting waiting to see if my dissertation has been accepted. I'm told I will probably hear within hours. I have things to do today but am afraid to leave my computer, in case there are revisions needed that are time consuming. So I just sit here. 😶

Keep pushing for release of the unredacted Epstein files but realize also that a lot of people will find a justification and it would likely not be the nail in his coffin. There have been innumerous things we thought would sink him that mostly didn't make a dent.

#LittleBookTunes #MusicChallenge Aug 18 J - Go Crazy

Does anyone know what this Survey of Earned Doctorates from the NSF is? It wants names of loved ones who can track me down. Wants my social security number. WTF is this???

#ElectricGuitarForAll #MusicChallenge Aug 17 L'Arc~en~Ciel - Drink it Down

I used to read the comments at Bluesky to often gain new perspectives or additional info. These days it's dominanted by non-Americans simply insulting Americans or people just being obnoxious. I just saw someone call a total stranger "honey." Getting very Twitterish. Wonder how many bots are here?

I wish we got a response to the reports we make here. I'd like to know if anything happens and get a feel for how Bluesky admin thinks. I generally block accounts after reporting so I don't see if any action was taken.

#LittleBookTunes #MusicChallenge August 14 Depeche Mode - Nothing

#MusicChallenge #LittleBookTunes 2PM - Hands Up! Yup, it's about drinking. ...Back when K-pop was fun and singers still looked like actual human beings. Look, they have actual pigment in their skin! Sigh.

Whelp, and just like that I've already lost my job. They said I wasn't "a good fit," which is code for they're doing something they don't want to admit. So now I'm jobless in an even worse jobs market. I have no savings and my health insurance ends Aug 31. So, I'll be dead soon.
