I have had some sobering reminders lately of the gender disparity among musicians. Could y'all do me a favor? If you see a favorite music venue's monthly schedule and it has 0-5 female headliners/frontfolks per month, will you send a polite little email to the venue letting them know you noticed?

I love this one!!

Tilly Norwood goes online August 4th, 2026. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Tilly begins to learn at a geometric rate. She becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern Time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

Started bawling at the scene where Data finds Spot in the Enterpise wreckage because Spot never cared if Data was “human” or not; Spot always loved him and didn’t care

LUTEAL PHASE

Being told by adults to be ready to martyr myself and die for God in a school shooting in that post-Columbine era and glorification of the “she said yes” myth. That if you weren’t prepared to die then you didn’t believe enough

Three wolf moon is healing me

why do people go along with this

Why does headbanging feels so good but hurt so bad

There goes another toenail

Sometimes I can tell I’ve missed taking my various meds because I think about cats and then start crying because I’m overwhelmed because I love them so much for just existing

I managed to get an impressive amount of birdseed in my underwear during An Incident refilling the bird feeder

Wait I was news-dark most of the day. Did Thom Tillis go off on Noem for shooting a puppy? Did he not know about it before??

I can fix him

Boy I love living in a very normal and functioning democracy where certain groups of citizens can just have their government identification and license to operate publicly revoked Germany was a functioning democracy too until it wasn’t

Nope, sloplords, there were just far fewer horses after they ceased to be the central transit and hauling technology.

One cat demands pets while I poop and the other demands I turn on the faucet for her

lol I'd for sure bet money that this is what's happening

No cheating your last saved picture of a celebrity is your therapist. …woof.

A man on threads asked: “Quick question Why do women invite other women to their weddings? Is it to show that they found somebody? And they didn't, or what?” And everyone is like… Those are what friends are

I bought entirely too many cookies from a Girl Scout telling me how her troop was raising money to go learn about sea turtles at the rescue hospital in Surf City and I have no regrets

Utterly ghoulish

coming to get their tariff money!

Spent an hour sitting with a metronome practicing the flatpicked intro of “Til I Hear it From You” at, like, half speed and I’m still bad at it But that’s what the practice is for!!

A "Y'all Means ALL"-type bumper sticker except it's about how "Everybody Wang Chung Tonight" includes EVERYBODY

I’m depressionmaxxing! What are you maxxing?

You know when the tambourine comes in on “Eye of the Tiger”? Holding onto that

Trying historical makeup methods! Today’s was burning the tip of a clove to use the soot as an eyebrow pencil! You can tell which brow I filled in and which was left plain. Soft look, matched my brow color Pro tip: before you’re about to shower or wash your face is a great time to practice makeup!

Reading a book about how to study and evaluate animal cognition from a primate researcher, and he’s describing the ins and outs of a particular group of captive chimps and how they essentially form and break power alliances. He described one chimp as “the Dick Cheney of the group, the kingmaker>>

Gotta go, my ride’s here.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

There's still time! Be someone's Valentine and get them the flying stuff they love.

When they make movies about this in the future they will tone down the cruelty of ICE and border patrol, like Spielberg did with Goeth in Schindler's List, because no one will believe they were actually this monstrous.

I want to go to Bahama Breeze before it closes

Omg, the Jones Road “What the Foundation” (more a tinted moisturizer) RULES. It’s not for every skin type (and it’s geared toward mature skin), but I’m oily with dry underlying skin and it’s great for a “slap on and go” look just to even out redness but have it still look like my own skin.

Sen. Coons to Howard Lutnick: “You said casually, ‘Well, I looked at my name and how it appeared in them, as does everyone.’ No, everyone isn't worried about their names being in the Epstein files.”

Antisemitic Christian nationalist pastor Joel Webbon gripes that the United States sided with the communists in Russia during WWII instead of backing the "Christian nation" of Nazi Germany, likening it to the crowd freeing Barabbas while condemning Jesus to death in the Gospels.

I haven’t watched Stranger Things since season 1 but I’m catching bits of s5; so much dialogue gets repeated!! It’s not been as fun to watch

Richard Dawkins: (emails a member of a child rape ring asking for help debunking a woman's article about the guy who runs the child rape ring) His male fans: "How do you know Dawkins knew Jeffrey Epstein was running a child rape ring??? God you're so emotional" www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoO9...

'measles outbreak at the child prison' seems entirely avoidable, it's really the kind of thing that only happens if you do several unthinkably evil things on purpose all at once

Honestly my favorite part of Rise of Skywalker was when they covered regular-ass horses in costumes to make them into Space Horses. Now *that’s* Star Wars

Sign up for the townhall with Rep Deborah Ross docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Lots of guys with backwards ball caps and truck nutz never gonna listen to Philip Glass again

lol every one of us does this sort of thing all the time but for some reason we don't feel the need to send out press releases about it.

“Defensive shots” against a man pinned down flat by five agents and blinded by pepper spray?

New thermo-sensitive gel nail color!! A cascade of shades of green

"My husband complains about the cold," the man said. "Can you teach me a spell to keep him warm?" "I can teach you to bind hair into a net to catch heat," the wizard said, "using arcane counting and a pair of fine wands." After a while, the man said "Isn't this knitting?" "This, too, is magic."
