Ah, the age old game of Do I have a chronic mental health condition or Is it just poverty?

Ah, I just learned that a Dutch phrase for leaving a party without announcing your exit is 'taking the rat taxi', and that's so much better than any of the Many nationalist or outright racist terms I've heard that I will be adopting it immediately

Why would I ask ChatGPT when I could just leave a little bowl of honey and a shiny bit of polished colored glass in the mushroom circle in the park across the street and ask the local fae instead?

I'm a huge fan of the Accidentally Flying the Unfamiliar Spaceship Backwards bit. That shit gets me every time

After a day to process, I think my conclusion is that Nolan thinks society is facing an apocalypse level collapse of the social contract, and he is sounding the loudest alarm bell he can

Constantly reinventing yourself is seen as weakness of character, but as someone who started out with a pretty fucked up set of perspectives, those constant changes during my middle adult years are a record of my becoming a better version of myself. This is also a post about constitutions

Tarleton Coffee, reporting for duty with a nasty submarine delivery

One of the things I love about writing near-future sci-fi is that I get to ascribe to my characters absolutely unholy combinations of pizza toppings the likes of which have never been conceived outside of a narcotic-fueled fever dream

You gotta respect how Messi heard everyone saying FIFA rigged the last World Cup by giving him so many penalties and he responded by committing to missing every single penalty they give him this time 🫡

Yes, I think mixed metaphors are funny and I will use them on purpose because it amuses me, and you don't need to throw a fit if the shoe doesn't fit your cup of tea or whatever

Conspiracy Theories I Embrace* • Phantom Time Theory (614–911CE fabricated) • One Electron Theory • NBA shoes can't be that squeaky. They gotta be pumping more squeaks into the arena • Bigfoot is blurry IRL, it isn't the cameras • Octopode genetic material landed on earth ~250m *embrace=/=believe

What's your favorite 2nd century heresy? Mine's the Ophites, who believed that the serpent who tempted Adam and Eve was a hero and that the God who forbade Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of knowledge is the enemy

Did you know you can just add espresso powder to your coffee to get more coffee per coffee? TheMoreYouKnow.gif

Anyone see that Harvard study about Gen Z preferring Curry Highlights to sex? Well, I have a theory

Professor: What's the First Law of Robotics? Me, an intellectual: We don't talk about robotics?

In the land of Faerûn, the people are terrorized by two separate yet equally important groups. The heroes who maraud through the countryside, and the monsters who are their fodder. These are their stories. *dun dun*

I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer when I was 29. I'd researched a story I was plotting about a serial killer who had a terminal disease, so as soon as I got the call I knew it was months, not if. This news breaks my heart all over again, because I'd give anything to have had this for my mom

There were seventy some years between the invention of toilet paper and the invention of 'splinter-free' toilet paper, if you're looking for more historical accuracy in either your fiction or your nightmares

If I ever were to become master criminal, I would have a file on my computer labeled Ill-gotten Gains, and it would just have photos of me getting fatter. As a misdirect

Poverty nachos. I'll be dropping shredded cheese on tortilla chips and popping that shit in the microwave till I'm buried

Time for the classic game with any longitudinal graph of American, ah, anything where we try to spot When Reagan Happened

If there is One Thing I hope readers get out of the series I'm trying to start publishing this year (that I've been working on for 15 years), it's that we, humanity, ARE everything we need in order to have everything we can imagine. It's the most defiantly humanist thing I've ever written

Mom's side most probably came over the landbridge from Asia a couple dozen thousand years ago. Dad's family came homesteading with the rest of the Scandinavian wave after the Homestead Act of 1862

I just broke the last gift my dad gave me before he passed, and I'm physically sick about it. I don't know if I've ever been so angry at myself. Fuck me, I miss my dad so much

Slightly diminish a band: Third Eye Astigmatism

Apparently I missed that we're doing age verifications on here now? Cool cool

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

Y'all, I don't think I can be a GI Joe. I just can't go around calling myself Cream Gizmo

I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once. And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

New favorite shirt just dropped

This is it right here

I'm Victor Hugo. Sewage systems are sexy.

I could not possibly be more strongly in Camp Article

Went to load up on vaccines today, and they wouldn't give me the shingles shot (too young) to my disappointment. Ever since @quinncy.bsky.social sounded the alarm about shingles back on the old place I've been eagerly awaiting my shot. I so very much don't want shingles

I heard we're talking about unnecessarily sexy statues. I'd like to invite everyone to consider my Big Boy in downtown Seattle

This grammarly ad boasting that their AI tool that changes your style and tone will 'help you find your voice' is so weird considering replacing your voice is literally what's happening

Tbf, I also got the trains from him, too

Only a good guy with autism can defeat a bad guy with autism

Ah, how is today the day I learned that both Tolkien and Hitler participated in the WWI Battle of Somme, on opposite sides, obviously?

People wonder about my fierce commitment to en-dashes clearly don't understand what it was like to be hit with Melville at an impressionable age

Gonna be testing exactly how many vaccines I can get at a time next week

Ryan Gravenberch is an absolute Rolls Royce of a footballer. Not a single other midfielder I'd swap him for in the entire world. I need him locked into one of those Chelsea-style seven year contracts yesterday
