Quick somebody’s get this recipe over to Dylan Hollis lol

Protesters chanting "We're not cold, we're not afraid, Minne[apolis/sota] taught us to be brave" in Boston tonight outside Government Center station.

I just found Viennese people to be really cold, I guess? The Turkish and Greek people I met there were genuinely very kind, though.

This was my constant experience in Vienna.

Every time I tell people I used to live in Seattle they’re like, “It must have rained all the time, right?” and no not really except like November through February with the CONSTANT DRIZZLE. I was perpetually damp.

The kittens drink water the exact same weird way Miss Moneypenny did (with their paws???) so although she is gone, and that still hurts EVERY DAY, I like to think she’d be pleased that her legacy lives on.

The new @defunctland.bsky.social episode is everything to me. Kevin Perjurer always reappears in our hour of greatest need

Peaky Blinders meme: No fighting with regime-run accounts. No fucking fighting with regime-run accounts!

It’s beside the point, really, but who knew fascism would be so fucking cringe? Anyway, @eva.computer put together a list of official government bullshit for your blocking needs. Don’t give these trolls your time or attention.

I’m being so for real right now when I tell you that I have zero memory of buying this record. It’s like it just materialized in my house one day and I am CONFUSED.

Telling my sister that I make a full $20k LESS annually than she thought (and she is fully aware that I am working-class at BEST) and seeing her struggle to process that information was a highlight of last year. Girl, I’m AMAZING with money management because the alternative is starvation and death.

A fun thing I do a couple times a year is remind my financially-comfortable relatives that I have two degrees, work my ass off, and am still POOR (though less so than I used to be, thanks public education employment benefits), and watch their brains melt.

Yelling about US economic policy and the absolute bullshittery that is our current tariff nightmare in a wealthy elderly relative’s FB comments, la la la.

Sometimes I watch Surya Bonaly’s 1998 Olympic free skate just to be able to feel something

Our school’s health aide bought me lunch today, what a world, what a life, etc.

Yeah, so this is Lasagna and I guess I am his de facto caretaker now until and unless his owners come back:

Which I give him (and his bestie, the actual stray who lives under my deck) because I’m not a MONSTER.

Starting to get legitimately worried that my Spanish-speaking next-door neighbors have been disappeared. They’ve all been gone for more than a week, no one in or out of the apartment, and their cat has been living in my garage and begging for food.

The world feels pretty dark right now, but I’m not going anywhere. Plans for 2025:
-Knit a sweater
-Learn to embroider
-Knit/sew stockpile of winter gear for our immigrant/refugee students for next winter
-Be kinder to myself
-Be kind to others

I got u

65 years later “The Twilight Zone” still hits SO HARD. Rod Serling was really onto some shit.

Just wait until they discover that you can oscillate to The Planets

thinking about when siskel and ebert were dicking off and riffing in-between takes and decided to roast the shit out of the protestants

One thing I really appreciate about my 🦋 feed algorithm is that my doomscrolling is regularly interrupted by a photo of a cat.

This page from Charlotte's Web by E.B. White resonates so so much with me.

Because... I guess it just goes to show that each and every one of us can be the saving of the other.

If that isn't such a quaint idea in these strange times.

Help, I started imagining Beaker (the Muppet) performing Kipling’s poem “Boots” in the style of this 1915 recording and now the thought won’t leave my brain: m.youtube.com/watch?v=RNZ5...

Okay, Michigan comrades, has ANYONE gotten through to an actual staffer at Gary Peters’ office? Because I’ve called DAILY, at different times of day, and it just funnels me to voicemail. Given his actions thus far, this isn’t encouraging,

The third “ordinary girl” is Hannie Schaft, who was active in the Dutch Resistance and died a martyr at 24.

Have you read “Three Ordinary Girls?” I might be due for a revisit. They were so, so brave.
