Satrapi’s obituary mentioned this Instagram tribute to her late husband, and as I couldn’t imagine it I went to look. And it broke my heart.

Purposefully adding little points of friction into my life until it becomes a souls-like

Accidentally trained my dog to know when I’m about to take a joint outside. Now she loses her mind with excitement when she thinks I have weed

Reach down your hand in your pocket Pull out some hope for me It’s been a long day, always, ain’t that right?

Marjane Satrapi

How do we elevate sexy dancing beyond humping the floor and pretending to eat each other out? There’s got to be new levels we haven’t explored

Sometimes I forget I can read music. Severely under-utilized skill I spent years learning

Maybe it’s good no one wants to buy my house. The primary bathroom at the new house doesn’t have newly as much room to stretch out and cry on the floor

Title my biography “Things Are Bad But At Least I’m Funny”

our phones became the shadows in the cave

I’m almost caught up on all the sock darning. A miracle worthy of sainthood, some might say

My healthy coping mechanisms: Working out, eating well, writing out my thoughts, smoking a lil weed, making art, sticking my hands in the earth, running soil through my fingers, clawing at the soft ground, burrowing deep deep DEEPER STILL and taking a lil nap.

ME: when is this show set? "uWu" comes from 2013+ but "Japanime" fell out of favor by the mid 00s. Unless... this confused vocabulary represents Lestat's relationship with the passage of time...

Moby Dick is a workplace comedy.

I really liked Obsession. I liked when Nikki did totally normal and relatable girlfriend things, like screaming when her boyfriend tries to leave the bed or doing the creep walk in only a bathrobe at 3:45am

it is in absolutely everybody’s best interests to develop some hobbies aside from Phone

KC Voices: Unified social orgs list demands for World Cup Host Committee www.thepitchkc.com/kc-voices-un...

Borrowers are still getting zooted off the one bottle of Quaaludes they stole in the 70s

A coalition of local organizations including KCDSA have sent a list of demands to the Kansas City Host Committee ahead of the World Cup. The needs of KC residents shouldn't be swept under the rug while we roll out the red carpet for wealthy tourists and FIFA, a multi-billion dollar organization.

Body acceptance tip: whenever I feel grumbly about the amount of body hair I have, I remind myself the people who implanted the desire to be hairless in my brain were pedophiles. And suddenly it’s kinda cool my leg hair and bush are trying to form a union.

Long, firm, tubular body, DEEP blue eyes, really wonderful expression. he is so calm, confident, really in charge here. Big, bouncy ears, perfectly set, a slender, whippy tail, and of course, those smooth, vibrant ribbons. Best in show.

Kansas City is a "big city" in that it has two million people but a "small town" in that less than 10,000 of those people ever go out in public.

The stinky fermented foods will set us free

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

Keep everything pristine and untouched, to give the appearance that no one lives here, while also keeping it homey and inviting enough that someone could picture themself living here. Feels like solving a magic riddle

Cringing at the thought strangers are going to see my personal “I voted” sticker shrine

All of my limbs feel like giant bruises. Spent all yesterday cleaning and organizing a single room in my house. Somehow have to do the same to every other room by noon tomorrow

Yell at your local government in a bus honoring way

I guess this annotated and color coded DSM-5-TR is just going to follow me around for the rest of my life

Oh no not the mayor trying to pit queer Kansas Citians against black Kansas Citians in the comments of a local comedian’s post. If only I had a shirt for this type of thing.

I've added my orchard and allotment themed landscape into a hoop frame I've had for a long while and I love how it looks! I think I may have to sell this aerial embroidery along with it, I think its such a perfect match for the landscape 😊 what do you think?

Grumpy at past self for never remembering to take before, after, and process pictures of all the mending and alterations I’ve done.

Sally Hensen wakes up confused and scared in an industrial room with a very sticky floor. Jigsaw: Sally Hensen. For years, you claimed your nail polish formula is insta-dry. This floor was coated in that polish 20 minutes ago. If you can escape this room without causing any smudges, you live.

What if we…

One of the best things you can do as an adult is realize that you didn’t actually have to stop drawing, coloring, painting, playing with clay, doing whatever else you loved as a kid. Even if you’re bad at it. Maybe especially if you’re bad at it

you've gotta feed the beast, they said you've gotta make a product, they said you've gotta answer emails promptly, they said you've gotta finish something, they said you've gotta climb down from that tree, stop biting customers, put your clothes back on, they said

Here’s a problem with community fridges that we didn’t foresee: people keep trying to take the fridges. The food inside the fridges is free; the fridges are not.

*We* are not out of ideas; rich people are. They don’t have to think, so of course they have nothing to contribute. I am thinking all of the time. Do you want to hear my idea for a one-woman show? What about my idea for a summer solstice festival? I’ve got an idea for a spaghetti based short film

A US city has effectively banned data centers for the first time. St. Charles, Missouri has changed their land use rules so that data centers cannot be built. The change is indefinite, and to build data centers in St. Charles the land uses rules would need to change again.

Finished The Vegetarian. Went in thinking this would be more fantastical, but I think it was made more unsettling by how grounded it was.

A non-exhaustive list of things I could really use $200 for: Stainless steel pan set New tattoo A damn haircut One-day clown intensive

For just 3% of what we are giving to KCPD, we could cover the funding gap, for 10% we could even expand public transit. The money is there, just not the political will. Hell with just the money paid in lawsuits against KCPD every year could nearly plug this funding gap.

seems a good day for my favorite meme

What struck me most from the conversations I had with multiple Palestinian devs for the unpublished piece how they spoke about how Palestine was portrayed in media, and how we so rarely get depictions of it as a place where people just like you and I have just...lived lives. Whole, beautiful lives.

Over a year ago, I spoke with @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social about Dreams on a Pillow for a piece that was killed before it could be published. I am honored that he was willing to take the time to speak with me again in spite of that and tell me about his beautiful homeland: kotaku.com/upcoming-ste...
