Heard it said that social media and ongoing pandemics ruined third spaces. Big part of it, yeah. But moreso I think a lot of people who leaned on those third spaces cannot afford in time or money to spend the leisure time to either own or go. Gig economy, multiple jobs…

Hey all you - what’s up?

Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide.

Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session.

Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.

Oh no. Here for you guys. Will check in later 💜

I volunteered to stage manage at our No Kings in St Cloud and ended up performing the song I wrote with Jeff Wood, who is a damn fine local musician.

This was my first time playing guitar and singing in public. Getting to share this was an honor ❤️‍🔥

So proud!!

My new role has been really intense and today also lacks admin and client facing meetings. I work mainly remote but it’s still a brain drain and some people still like cameras on.

Well I just got the OK so I am doing MY OWN DANG COVER REVEAL

WICKHILLS has a cover now! Illustrated by Tom Roberts and designed by Russell Trakhtenberg!

Your Body Is Not Your Body is an anthology that doesn’t miss

I miss that. I liked the surface level chatting and commandeering the juke box

Is it a “this is what hubris sounds like” moment?

And if not why not

Does it go woooOoooooOoooOoo?

Our Muppet dogs need a muppet dog toy-carrying playdate

I would also like to point out that the MCU Punisher show addressed the incredibly ironic act of fascists adopting the Punisher symbol for a hate dog whistle. They kind of missed the point.

I have now experienced this on a wooded lot. The mid-sized one likes to hang on the siding and peek in the window and scare the hell out of me

Dead battery? Eat a potato.

Even if you have never experienced it, accepting what people say is so key.

New fun work issue: In a meeting where I don’t need to speak but need to pay attention and flag things and I can hear the dog trotting around probably causing chaos

I was just dealing with struggling to address a That Guy… and then saw this

yeah. I get it. Reach out. We should chat with voices or email

Random thought: I definitely don’t mind paying for an app or game. Kind of over everything being on the micro transaction model and how I can kill games. It also feels like it unfairly tips the market with larger companies that can “ give it away for free”

Guys, you MUST watch Christopher Graybill’s Saucers, Spooks and Kooks - based @agorightly.bsky.social’s fantastic book. This is a brilliant doc, and I hope one day it also gets a physical release. Follow @sskmovie.bsky.social for more (dis)information! ;) #ufosky

The condensed is one that carries that sort of slightly terrible nostalgia one that I need to tell you the full story of - it involved defiant eye contact as I eat straight from the can in a corporate setting

Same

Why do we have the same list of trash panda favorites?

It definitely picked up after they found their pace with the characters. It had so much to think about

My struggle with numbers translates to all languages apparently, so I feel this. In English we may have “sheets” and “pieces” but Japanese just really gets in there. Have you checked out the Japanese for Busy People work books?
