I donated to PTKU because (1) NH is fucking dreadful at protecting trans kids (or adults, we're becoming the AL of the north, wheeee); (2) I don't have an alma mater, and (3) I ain't putting my name up there (self employed) LOL

The SQUAWK I just let out. OMGGGGG There is no way *anyone* saw that coming.

Another small chip-in (see what I did there) from NH. 28-3 (plus expenses) to PTKU because NH is moving backwards and that just ain't right. *sigh* (Brendan here is a Real One though, OMG)

I mean, over half of bluesky is probably on Iran's side on this bullshit, or at least *against* Trump/Bibi, so I'm not sure what this wins them?

Bsky not loading pictures means you didn't see the half-nekkid selfie I posted*

*no fucking way would I post that, I like my pocket friends

There *are* good people in this world, and Norm is absolutely a Real One.

You're a good egg, Norm. ❤️

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Congratulations!!

Well, I mean, look at you. I'd bring you soup too. 👀

$10/gal gasoline. And even then, some won't budge.

NICE. You make that look so easy. Meanwhile, my knees are so shot that I can barely do a modified half lunge, while holding onto a rail LOL

Connie, anyway. Can still send Steve-o over to the blade.

Shit like this just fucking lights me up. 🤬

🫂 Dementia's a hard row, man. The Spouse is dealing with his mum; she's still in her home. The biggest thing we've learned is don't argue, just change the subject. Arguing gets you nowhere, and 10:1 they'll forget anyhow, & all you get is high blood pressure. See if there are support groups nearby.

No lies! Lasted about an hour, now it's just cold. Spring is weird.

what the fuck, it's snowing. 🤬

Huh. Worked for me, but I'm using a PC/ windows, which could be the entire difference, maybe there's a separate apple setting. How aggravating!

14?! Unsupervised? Nope.

You can go into Gmail settings (Settings>General, scroll down to 'smart features' and untick the box) and turn that shit off. "Smart Features". It also includes spell check, and a handful of other things (like autocompose, grammar, etc).

Jerry, no. #NightmareFuel

Happy to tell you what I use, though your concerns might be different than mine. If you get a sample of the 'night smoothing capsules' though, holy crap are those great.

I literally stumbled across the Roc line (always ignored the 'fancy' aisle and went for basic moisturizer) from a throwaway mention on a random Insta video I watched, but damned if it hasn't made a significant improvement for me.

Totally hear you on not melting your wallet! FWIW some of the drug store stuff is every bit as good (sometimes better) than the spendy shit. RoC makes some crazy good stuff.

A suggestion, if it helps: I always take notes of what they use, and wait a few days to see what worked before considering buying any recommended products (if any - sometimes they just tell you what they use and they're not actually selling face potions, like "this diner serves X brand coffee").

GOTDAMN. 👀

If they didn't have NY in front of their name, I'd probably be where you are on it, because, yeah, absolute sad sack/ 'don't kick the puppy'. Alas, being a New Englander (with a nearly 30 year jail sentence -I mean residence- in NJ), it's nearly an automatic reflex at this point.

As a hater of NY sports teams (hey, I'm from New England, it's required), I 100% cosign this.

I am hoping that others will boycott, but not tell us beforehand. Why give Trump et. al. advance time to be punitive?

Quick sketches, max 20 min each, though trying for under 15. Aquatic life, clockwise from upper left: shark, sea turtle, goldfish, seahorse. Ink, pen, and watercolor

Started an online sketching class, in the hopes I can build a bit more discipline in my art hours as opposed to painting when I feel I have free time. Also, trying to force myself to work faster and looser. This is week two's homework, max 20min per. #art #artist #watercolor #pen #ink #sketch
