I love when Google Maps auto-suggests a place I went to exactly 1 time, an hour away, 7 years ago.

Sorry for your loss 🫂

The daily check of "is the strait open or not" is starting to feel like a depressing version of "bones or no bones."

This. I assume it's because "thou shalt not worship false idols" is explicitly spelled out and the little book doesn't have the stance "thou shalt not commit SA on a creepy island and really anywhere else that you're accused, or incite violence because you lost, or start a war, or or or..." 🫩

If I ever feel well-rested again in my life, watch out. I'm probably going to cure cancer from the top of Mount Everest.

Being married is easy, I don't know why people complain about it. All you have to do is ask what your partner needs, actually listen to the answer, then figure out how you're going to train a variety of woodland creatures to put ancient curses on their enemies. It's literally so simple.

😬 My therapist is going to LOVE this one

Nauseated to watch the chief of NATO talk about being best buds with a guy who just threatened genocide a few days ago.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social @houserepublicans.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

To every elected official:

I am begging you to call for the invocation of the 25th amendment. Our president is promising genocide. If 8pm EST tonight delivers any of Trump's bloody promises, that blood is on your hands.

Speaking out is not enough. Act.

You are quite literally running out of time.

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

Call me crazy, but an American-funded extermination of an entire civilization strikes me as worse than the existence of gender-neutral bathrooms.

Earthset from Artemis II. I am overcome.

During this incredible, unifying moment of inspiring international cooperation and spectacular technological achievement, I would really appreciate it if the US president would stop threatening to murder an entire country with bombs.

Time for another edition of "Cilian Murphy GIFs to express complex emotions without the use of political buzzwords or jargon because no amount of words will adequately describe my current psychological state"

...and that's why Richard Roxburgh is my favorite Dracula.

Update: still there.

And I just know that I'm going to keep waking up tonight to phantom sounds of the garbage truck.

Brains are dumb.

If I know all that, tell me why I'm sitting here thinking I've pissed off waste management or the city?

The neighbors still haven't had theirs taken either, but does that reassure me? No. This is somehow my fault and I just need to find out why to make it right.

Brb gotta check the trash

It was going down the neighboring street. Good, probably coming here soon. They're just very behind today.

Then tornado warning + several hours of severe thunderstorms, leading into sundown.

Logically, they probably were told to pack it in for the night. It's too dangerous, etc.

A perfect example of how anxiety disrupts the dumbest things in your life:

Today is trash day. Recycle was picked up, trash wasn't. It's normally gone by 9am. I have checked the trash a dozen times today and it's still there.

Just before a huge storm came through, I saw the garbage truck.

Joy incarnate

And I say this as a plus-size woman, mid-30s, mental health issues, former theater kid and classically trained. I will never act again, period, but cosplay has been very healing for me.

People will have their own experiences (negative or positive) but it doesn't necessarily reflect an entire craft.

Removed enough from the cosplay competition scene to have no clue what's going on.

Not so removed to know that my experience in cosplay and competitions has been nothing but positive.

There will always be people who bring down an experience, but they are heavily outnumbered by beautiful souls.

Querying soon.

Jenny Lawson's writing made me feel seen in ways nothing had before and nothing has since.

I needed authors like her when I was a teenager and didn't have them. I didn't understand that my weirdness was important or that the things wrong with me weren't my fault.

Banning books protects no one.

Tiktok search bar saying "how to get the Einstein files."

If this doesn't sum up the ineptitude surrounding the WHOLE THING, I don't know what does.

Just booked with my favorite tattoo artist! Haven't seen her since she was an apprentice 4 years ago and now she has her own place and grown so much. This will be my first "out in the open" piece and I've been debating the concept for a long time, but we're finally doing the thing! 🥳

They want to tell you a kid with a Spider-Man backpack is evil Liam Ramos' innocence, like the innocence of all kids, is unimpeachable. The visuals of his arrest are excruciating.

An immigration judge has ordered the removal of Liam Consejo Ramos, a Minnesota toddler who was detained by ICE.

The politics of citizenship might seem like the detail that distinguishes Liam’s story from the stories of our kids. But his innocence, like the innocence of all kids, is unimpeachable.

We also had a splashy walk today!
