I don't think I've ever seen the tangy 'n' cheesy one before.

Yup. If I've had this phone two years and have no idea what it does, it can't be that important.

There are four buttons on the side of my phone. One is the on/off button, two are for the volume and one is a mystery button I have never used and have no idea what it does.

I'm a bot

Publishers, call me: I can have three sample chapters of my future bestseller “Neighbors Are Allowed To Be: A Self-Help Book for Dogs” on your desk by the weekend

All date outfits should have tentacles tbh

That seems more involved than I'm looking for right now

Writer friends! Does anyone have any recommendations for writing prompts aimed at getting back into writing after a break? Very much struggling in this regard right now.

You get into less trouble for stabbing people with a fork than a knife?

Me: *watching a video that used the word weenis instead of penis*
My brain: *activating like a sleeper agent hearing the code word*

The weenis is a dance
Everyboy is a genius

I've been using captainraz since at least 2007, which is when I joined LiveJournal. I might have been using it as early as 2005, which is when I actually got the nickname. Were it a person and not a username, it would be able to drink in the US.

In the UK a response of “not bad” can cover any state from “I have been bathed in the warmth of God’s light and know only bliss” to “the existential horrors of reality mean I am seconds away from caving in my own skull with this rusty pipe I found in the car park”

Conflict... Avoidance? That guy?!

AO3 is unexpectedly down and I don't get to find out how lesbian love saves the world. What am I going to do with myself?

Photo of Mollie, a mostly black and white Jack Russell terrier sleeping on the floor with her chin resting on a brown teddy.

We said goodbye to this sweet girl today.

Mollie had a rough start in life but we more than made up for that with 16 years of being loved and spoiled.

Sleep tight Mollie Moo.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a photo printing site that explicitly doesn't use your photos for AI training?

Congratulations, you look like the adorable queerio you are. People are gonna be so surprised when you mention the husband.

Every trans person who insists on being seen is a living map for those still finding their way.

Hard agree. The actual story of the film or show doesn't matter as much as the fact it exists.

And they can always disappear it into a hole as a tax write-off if things go too badly.

Photo of Odie, a black and tan mixed breed dog, with his chin propped on the photo takers knee. He is staring at the camera with big brown eyes and telepathically asking for something.

Behold said velcro dog.

Today @samkurd.bsky.social has had important things to do, so I have been on distract the dog duty. I can recommend it as a way to spend the day. Bonus points if the dog is as clingy as Odie has been today.

Using cups to measure was a game changer for me as a self-described chuck-it cook. Makes coming up with recipes in the fly much easier.

But baking... Baking requires precision and accuracy or everything will fall apart. Like, weigh your water kind of accuracy.

Today in "things I had to say to my dog":

No, let's not walk through the vomit.

And like, the government has declared me too disabled to hold a regular job and I _still_ feel like a fraud.

This is exactly how I feel about ticking that box

Coming out of your neck is very bad

I wasn't in the gifted and talented program, mostly because my school didn't have one.

As for the rest... No comment.
