When I listen to playlists of my youth, it just makes me hope that Sheri Moon & Rob Zombie are still in love.
Maybe they debate what to get at the Farmer's Market.
And then they tell me how proud they are of my grades, and that a B- isn't anything to get upset about.
And then we all have pizza.
Dear Flight Attendant:
I lied. This isn't the Girl Scout salute, it's a sex thing.
It's a sticker I put on my credit card bc it's about girls fucking girls.
Please don't ever ask me to explain Lesbian Iconography again, whether it's on an airplane full of Townies and Massholes or beyond.
I took a 15 minute walk to a dispensary in Boston and in that time, three different strangers stopped to tell me that I look pretty.
Why the fuck did I ever move away from Boston?
I stopped throwing away the stems when I grind weed. Now I store them in a little jar, because I enjoy lying to myself that I'm ever going to cook it all into cannabutter.
It's like every smoke session is the Great Depression, and there's been a run on the danks.
When your D&D party is stuck in Hell, and the DM sends you to a wandering emporium that is a thinly veiled "South of the Border" truck stop - OF COURSE YOU BUY TRUCK NUTS! #dnd #ttrpg #D&D #rps @eladarling.bsky.social @cloverbee.bsky.social @sethpolansky.bsky.social
If that's the case, my phone has seen a lot of shit and I'll have to contend with the notion of putting it into therapy.
Having to deal with or find work-arounds for:
+ Piracy.
+ Doxxing.
+ Online censorship.
+ Banking discrimination.
+ High payment processing fees.
+ TOS exclusions with almost every service.
+ Age Verification laws that deter the few customers who respect erotic labour enough to pay for their porn.
Ew, my phone autocorrected "charming young lad" to "charming young lady."
Does my phone have internalized misogyny on its internal memory?
You make me want to be here!!!
I don't really use Bluesky or other social media that much these days, but posting my bullshit on Twitter feels like I'm bringing my A-Game to a room of C minuses
I've vacationed on the island of Inbox Zero years ago, but that was at least 3, 4000 emails ago.
It just doesn't feel feasible to make the trek back these days.
Woohoo Seahawks!!!
I'm just so psyched for the PNW escorts who are about to get extra gifts and tips from their favorite athletic clients.
I just realized that Dee Snider is still alive, and I was so grateful that I bored my boyfriend for half an hour about his testimony to Senate during the PMRC hearings.
He's asleep, but giving me a thumbs up ππΌ

The person who invented the technology that brought us WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS never saw a dime. In 1942 actress Hedy Lamarr and her friend, composer George Antheil, invented a system called "frequency hopping" that is now integrated into every aspect of our lives.
Our final episode on Hedy Lamarr is out today!
@eladarling.bsky.social & @sovereignsyre.bsky.social discuss her inventions & her patent for Frequency Hopping
How is it that she never saw a dime from her invention? Because she happened to be a dime herself, of course:

What do people see when they look at The Most Beautiful Girl in the World?
Whatever you tell them to. Doesn't hurt to have razor smart intellect behind your doe eyed stare

Photo of some nice fucking trees with a blue sky and a cloud that looks like a marshmallow peep with a bow tie floating next to it
Man, I'm just trying to smoke a bowl and look at a bunch of cool trees while I scroll on my phone, but Twitter is hashing my vibe so hard
Have some trees with blue sky, BlueSky:
That means SO much to me, coming from you!
This is a screenshot of the article in business insider, it says, "I'm a girlfriend for hire. I use AI to help me satisfy customers, make more money, and feel better about my work."

β SO ANYWAY INSISTING THAT SEX WORKERS HAVE TO BE EMPOWERED BY THEIR WORK TO DESERVE RESPECT AND LABOUR PROTECTIONS IS A PARTICULARLY MISOGYNISTIC FORM OF DOMESTIC LABOUR DISCRIMINATION THAT RELIES ON THE DEVALUATION OF FEMINISED LABOUR LIKE CHILDCARE, HOUSE CLEANING, AND ADMINIS
