I used to feel a little bad that The Onion is about to surpass WaPo in print subs and stopped promoting the membership as a direct foil until today they came out with “Do POOR BABIES deserve DIAPERS???” so therefore

okay I've ordered a new popcorn bowl, and while I was at it I also bought two DVDs and more ant poison (to round up to free shipping)

The Pike’s Peak Humane Society has a social media manager who is very good at their job

Going to bed before 10:30, like a responsible adult

Knock Knock Open Wide by Neil Sharpson! Irish-focused mythological horror, complicated women, lots of plot, and an evil children's TV show. One of my favorite reads so far this year. More people should read it!

no person who is secure in their own self-worth needs more than one X in a single word

really good thread

I need a fandom so bad. Either a brand new one or a new burst of energy for an old one.

This is the vast imbalance in our media ecosystem: Democrats are held accountable for what they *might* do based on the words of their fringe voters and policies they are considering but never happen. Republicans aren’t even accountable for what they *are* doing.

year 3 and with a lot of active effort, my farm is starting to look almost sort of planned

I think I set the microwave for 23 minutes instead of 2:30, so I not only burned the popcorn but melted the microwavable popcorn bowl

last weekend, talked to a guy in his 60s who wanted to know if my volunteer org had TikTok. "I only get news from TikTok."

NOBODY does it like Ishmael

#UnconfinedWalks tis the season of tree dandruff

This excellent analysis lays bare that they realize they're wildly unpopular (popular agendas can achieve success through democratic means). And of course the more of this they do the more unpopular they become, so it's a treadmill and feedback loop.

in terms of the fandom, obviously the reunion tour as a whole was absolutely incredible, a once in a lifetime fannish experience that will never be topped ...but in terms of concert experiences, Liam's 2024 Definitely Maybe shows were my favorites >.>

it does not matter how tasty the craisins look, I still do not like chicken salad

Awww Stop Crying Your Heart Out just came on at the coffee shop. First time I've ever heard Oasis in the wild that wasn't Wonderwall.

as someone who is constantly feeling like "where's all the microbudget horror by women" I made a pledge SO FAST.

Summer of Horror noms SOON. (=in four days.)

woke up too early AGAIN, had a snack, went back to sleep for THREE MORE HOURS and woke up at noon feeling like a human being. as a schedule this is not ideal, but human > not human.

one of the funnier lines I've ever written

I don't understand how I can copy a block of text from a document in calibri and paste into another document also in calibri, and yet somehow it pastes as times new roman

I identify as a(n elder) millennial, and I don't know a single one of these songs. Maybe if I heard them?

somehow I was not expecting to see knockoff heated rivalry t-shirts at kohls

waking up way too early two days in a row, and I am struggling

How is he even real

I've been playing Stardew for five years straight, and I just learned from a random video that there are TWICE AS MANY SHORTCUTS from the community upgrade as I thought?!?!?!

Wait, THIS was the answer I was reaching for and couldn't find. Literally saw her in her finished state and was like oh yeah, we're never going to forget this one. I guess time will tell if I'm right.

Scream 4 Saw 2, 3, 6, and 10

posted some fic recs from Summer of Horror 2024 (lol): snickfic.dreamwidth.org/1067564.html fandoms: Miss Marple (yes!!), The Thing, Apostle, Anaconda, The Descent

figuring out food feels very difficult lately. I think it's partly because the weather has gotten warmer and so soups don't really feel right, but if not soup then... what.

Friends this choice of photos is KILLING ME

I think the Kacey and Miranda characters on Horses and Divorces should fuck

FIRST JOINT INTERVIEWS IN 25 YEARS variety.com/2026/film/gl...

*looks at redistricting news* oh :(

something something the reason horror is such a good film genre is because the natural medium of horror is the short story

I put together some rules updates for Summer of Horror and I am VIBRATING with excitement for noms to start. Eight more days!!!

maybe I'll quit pretending that I'm going to be productive and go see The Sheep Detectives.

I'm really feeling the "want to write" urge, and yet don't have anything I'm specifically hankering TO write. Also every time I actually open a document I'm suddenly too tired to make words.

how the comeback is going from the kids' perspective

lol did you know you can get a dig spot in your giant glob of bug meat

I... think I got enough sleep last night? yay????
