I've become a @tkingfisher.com character

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

The what now

Rochester/WNY friends: come see me and @lisafybush.bsky.social and some very talented friends in "Charles Darwin's Christmas Carol" Dec. 18-21! I play Darwin and she's my wife/first cousin Emma. It's a very funny, very smart play, part of a pair of one-acts. www.muccc.org/events/charl...

I don't feel a day over 24

If you own any kind of upscale housing complex it's legally required to add an e to the same end of random words in the name. Bonus points when you squeeze in both Pointe and Winde.

Two years ago today I showed up at a friend's house to assist with some tree trimming

The fact that "blonde" and "blond" both exist irritates me

This nation would be a better place if just one White House reporter had the courage to ask "what the hell are you rambling about, old man?"

People love to make long posts in the Rochester subreddit about how to drive in the snow as if they believe that when someone is in the midst of sliding out they're going to think "Wait, now what exactly did tylerbumper63 say I should do in this situation?"

It's nice to get frequent customer discounts but not when it's from a tree removal service

Now that we've reached the season when people make "I don't believe that anyone actually reads 100 books a year" posts, I wonder if they ever consider how many hours a day they spend mindlessly scrolling on social media or gaming

Always exciting when the wrap cover design comes in! 😍 This book comes out on Feb. 24, so preorder now for your spring bday people who are fans of queer romantic fantasy. 😉 🌈📚🪐📚💙

2018 secondhand cheese conversations

I guess it's finally time to nap until March

Anyone want seconds?

My buddy keeps a log of our hangouts because she might be a little bit on the spectrum and then shares the entries for the past year every Thanksgiving. I just realized it's a Google Doc I can edit, so theoretically I could go back and change things like "Jan 7 2020: Saw Anne Hathaway at Vesper"

The Venn diagram of guys who bray about their situational awareness - always sitting with their back to the wall, never letting anyone behind them, forever prepared for bad men - and the guys who jump in with “Not all men!” the second a woman mentions her safety precautions is just a circle.

Not that we need more proof that Private Equity ruins everything, but our once-independent vet went from “Don’t worry about the paperwork and payment, we’ll mail it later” to “We need payment now and these forms filled out” in the exam room as they prepared to euthanize our cat. PE strikes again.

Hear me out: Daniel Craig returns one more time as James Bond, but he plays the role like Benoit Blanc

Finally starting to pick some quotes from The Quicksand Theatre Company to share and have fun with. Here is one involving Moulin Rouge costumes. 😉🔥🌈📚💙 mollyringle.com/quicksand-th...

Sharing as a gift article, and remember, he would HATE it if people shared this too much. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/u...

Anyone on Booktrovert and looking to pick up a queer romantic fantasy with theatre and fae and irreverence? Heeeere you go! 💙📚🌈📚🪐 @booktrovertcom.bsky.social

Any review that starts with "From the moment I walked in..." is one hundred percent guaranteed to be fake

At every IT job I've ever worked at, if someone asks "Do you know anything about X?" and I tell them "No, that's BillyJoeBob's area", the questioner will nonetheless continue to ask you questions about X forever, no matter how many times I redirect them.

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

My 25 year work anniversary gift is basically an Amazon shopping spree, so clearly it's all getting spent on Christmas presents and to finally buy myself some first rate tools

Someone on the Rochester subreddit is asking for recommendations for snow boots that also be used as office shoes because "Unfortunately I'm too lazy to change shoes at work" and now I have so may questions

I was stuck in Omaha for six month in the 1990s while working for Kodak, commuting back and forth to home in Rochester every couple of weeks for the weekend. Have there ever been such iconic 1990s sweaters?

The door to our attic is in the back of a closet, so we need to completely empty it to access our storage. That was a week ago. Pixie decided it's her nest now and thus we're legally prohibited from putting anything back

So MTG is mad that she's now the target of the political culture she worked tirelessly to create? And suddenly it's now a bad thing?

Sometimes I'll see the Slack typing indicator on a chat with a coworker and it will go on for three minutes and then I'll get the message : "Hey, I have a question." I think about that a lot.

I do my best work via texting

Every book-marketer: Direct folks to your personal mailing list; that's the one thing you have complete control over! Every regular human: *gets too many emails from the world in general and either deletes your newsletter unread or unsubscribes because see above about getting too many emails* 📚💙

OH COME ON

I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

Watched the first part of new Ken Burns documentary about the American Revolution last night. How timely to refresh one's memory about how incensed the colonists were by military troops being used as a police force, and that rioting was considered to be a moral response to government overreach.

It took a mere 20 hours before I had to block the guy who bought my scooter. He keeps sending me videos like "What lock does this key fit? How about this one? Do I need to carry both fobs to start it?" The last straw was this morning with "How do I install the app for it?"

GenX checking in

We have a strict rule that Em finds weird places to go, I keep track of them on a spreadsheet, and then she looks out for cows and talks for hours

A guy is making a thirteen hour round trip drive tomorrow to buy my scooter. Should I tell him it's the one that got me temporarily inducted into a lesbian motorcycle club?

Another Bill Clinton blow job story??? Hollywood will reboot ANYTHING to avoid investing in original screenplays

I finally found a buyer for my scooter, in CT. He's contacted a shipping broker to have it trucked to his house. I've been added to their conversation thread. He clearly has no idea how brokers work, as he keeps messaging them every three hours with "DO YOU HAVE A DATE YET?!?!"

TikTok, what the hell

Every now and then I have to check out some of the books handled by my company, and then I need to bleach my brain every day for a week

I was just reminded of this day in which one of my children decided not to inquire further

The fact that twitter goes down when everyone is talking about the Epstein email releases is going to give people a field day

Put soup leftovers in a square container just once and it will haunt you for the rest of your life
