My son Firas's joy over this little thing is hidden behind great pain, hunger, and urgent need. Just $400 is all we desperately need to secure the basics of life. Please don’t leave this little boy to face life’s many hardships alone.😞🙏🙏🫂 gofund.me/78acabc1

But totally low stakes Fry forgetting Bender's name in the episode Bender is "god" is hilarious. Oh Fry >_< (futurama)

There are a lot of things I hate about The West Wing but one of (if not the) top is that it convinced people that there was something noble about how often Bartlet would know what is right but not fight for it because of politics. That he was a great man and politician instead of weak and cowardly

Imagine you and your family haven't eaten in days... This is our reality right now! 💔😢 $10 from you could fill empty stomachs and save vulnerable lives 💔 Who can help? Even sharing the appeal could make a difference! 🙏 chuffed.org/project/1426...

We USians should be able to recognize that the actions of 2% of a population doesn't reflect the whole. After all, we keep telling the whole world Trump and MAGA don't represent us. But somehow "the Palestinians" did October 7? Miss me with that racist shit.

I'm embarrassed to make this follow-up but as I have bell's palsy, in my case, it's become more difficult to eat now since late Monday night- literally anything sent will help me out because then I can get softer foods and water, which makes it easier. I'm grateful to y'all for your patience. ♡

Sorry not totally on topic (and good joke) but I just want to remind people that multiple people in the media have admitted to the fact that they intentionally clean up his speeches because otherwise "nobody could understand him" Our media is so fucking complicit it's hard to explain the degree

A reminder as you go into your weekend that Ryan and I have some reading recs for you. Shut off the TV and the doomscrolling for a bit and get into some horror on the page!

Microsoft has terminated unit 8200’s access to select cloud storage and AI services, making it the first giant tech company to terminate any services to apartheid Israel at least since the beginning of its Gaza genocide. Read more: loom.ly/aS6eYUQ #NoTechForApartheid #NoTechForGenocide

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Expanding my correct take that not only do people who want stronger opposition to Trump hate him more than those who don’t, but the people who don’t are wreckers If you are complaining about Tankies… are you being paid to help Trump or are you just that easy to manipulate into helping the right?

Proof btw bsky.app/profile/momm...

The Futurama team are still dicks for Jurassic Bark 😡

Do you ever mentally check out on your own part in a conversation Like same vibe as “I’m sorry I was trying to pay attention but my brain turned off” but you do it to yourself mid talking 😂

Fucking EVERYBODY was in Tales from the Crypt, damn

Ben’s got a headache and I have cramps so I think we are going to have an epically lazy “Saturday” We prefer to do errands today so we don’t have to do them on Friday then get back to work (him) routine (me) but 🤷🏻‍♀️ Already started with typos and wrong word choices sooooooooo

Carrion are fascinating and I hate when people say they are ugly because how dare you But it blows my mind when they swallow bones that look larger then themselves. Are they all packing a tardis in there?

I see the “you want stronger opposition to Trump and more left wing policies than me and that makes me uncomfortable” crowd is off to the races this morning Self reflection and growth are hard but not hard enough to justify your bullshit

potato.

Why do I post I can’t find a gif of it (probably because it has not aged well) but you know how in Arsenic and Old Lace, Carey Grant talks about insanity running through his family Yeah, that, but let’s fix the problematic parts!

the thing about moral panics is they aren't about moral panics. it's about community control and rampant bigotry. censorship is a tool of fascists, those who purity police are fascists, and if your disgust agrees with their mission more than the right for fiction to gross you out, you are a fascist

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours with no prep 1) horror movies and the genre overall 2) marine life 3) gossip about a whole mess of southern and southern west American families that nobody needs to know including me

During the first week of October, @spicycloaca.bsky.social and I are running an open sub call for the zine that will accompany their book Gore Poetics. 500 words max on the theme FLESH. Pay is 10 cents/word. Samir's book is weird, erotic, and often transgressive vibewise, so keep that in mind.

Everybody who didn’t get raptured, sound off by reading my very queer fantasy books featuring bisexual characters.

Please help Sakher get food, water, and medicine for his family. Their situation is extremely dangerous. Please keep talking about the genocide and doing whatever you can to put pressure on your representatives, whoever they are and wherever you are.

Accidental thread- But these 3 songs are absolute top notch horror themes. They reflect not only the genre but their works. Like I feel like Michael is chasing me. I feel the dread and unknown. I feel like I am being pulled into a spiraling horror. Each one nails it

Every time I hear the Halloween Themes no matter how many times I have watched movies in this franchise *dances in can't dance but still has fun*

Honest question- Saw a video about "men for lesbians," and it wasn't a lesbian claiming they are men lesbians are attracted to, you are lesbians, but rather men that you are like "you are delightful and I certainly get it" Is Lee Pace one?

I forgot how brutal the leg thing is in H20 *gags*

Skeet your pride flag(s) (I am honestly pan but I realized I was bi when that was the more popular term and it's just what I prefer to say I guess? Or I'm more used to it? Over explaining)

had the urge to do this since the moment i saw this post! #pixelart

I'm in a Very tight situation, so I'm asking for some help. I know I've shared this a lot; I hope that it will pass soon. Thank you so much to those who've helped! Anything means everything, and I appreciate you very much. If it matters, Fall is generally where my Birthday lands! So, there's that.

Now I want to watch Deep Blue Sea I love me some LL in more fun than good horror movies LMAO

And STILL super behind >_<

A grandma getting medical supplies she needs should not be dependent on if I remember to share during the best hours or accidentally fall asleep on the couch… if you can help Etaf please do

So the most ridiculous example I can think of to rant about this whole "unnecessary sex scenes" is the striptease in True Lies. It's not technically a sex scene but it is very sexy, extended, and uncomfortable to watch with your folks (which I think is a factor). I would be LYING if I said that

Ben: His insurance is never going to pay for that

She's back! Can we NOT bring back carpet in bathrooms? (exceptions of course for people who actually need it for potential mobility reasons or whatever)

Ryan and I are big book nerds and we've got some recs for you heading into the most wonderful time of the year! 👻🎃👹🍂

I swear to all that his holy and unholy STOP USING AI AND PRETENDING IT'S ANTI TRUMP For fuck's fucking sake *SCREAMS* Okay good night, be safe and well

One more thing (lul) I have tried not to focus on my disappointment with the monologue because I think the bigger thing is that pushback worked and shows we can come together and should because we can do so much more. But I will defend my disappointment if confronted...

And btw *you* are the potential sea change. He's not the linchpin of anything, the people who participated in the boycotts are closer to it than him. So keep that energy and momentum up. Be the strength they (those with power and influence) are failing to give us and demand they get it together.

It's good that companies are flinching a little. I get that. But I swear it should be universally agreed upon that right now we need REAL strength and it's getting tiring to be treated like I'm the problem for wanting that.

No seriously... I said something along the lines of "Taken out of context doesn't mean there was more said it means there was something that actually changes the meaning of what was said" And... it's gone? I assume glitch but weird

Ummm is there any particular reason my post about people not understanding what "taken out of context" means just... disappeared????

Are people being doomers or are they saying "no we still have to keep working and in fact need to be working harder" Sometimes it's going to be the first, without a doubt, but not every time...

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

22-year-old Ward Sakeik, a Palestinian woman who has lived in Texas since she was 9, says her experience in federal detainment could only be identified as “human trafficking.” And she’s not staying quiet about the women she was forced to leave behind. thebarbedwire.com/2025/09/22/w...

Ben's like "can you spare me too please????" LOL
