Spreading the word in case this is new info.

A mysterious knight is wearing elaborate golden armour while holding a sword and a large spiked sheild. A text box like those seen in rpg’’s or text adventures says ‘you have encountered [redacted] the unknowable’ a second text box has ‘attack, flirt, dance, flee’ in descending order. Flirt is selcted.

Unknowable

Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

art of a spoof poster for the island of dr. moreau, featuring oddity roadshow's cobb as Marlon brando getting pawed by catboy marlins in silhouette- in the foreground is marlin head on a dog body ala "mars attacks". title reads "that there dr. island monroe"

"Totemo Kawaii", rave critics!

As Mamdani nears victory, Democrats worry about national fallout The progressive candidate is on the cusp of a historic mayoral win. And that's adding to unease among Democrats looking for a way back to national power.

The framing of this is hilarious: Democrats deeply worried about the repercussions of a victory

on the topic of dick cheney, one thing i’ve always said is that you shouldn’t kill a million people

Christ, he is supernaturally good at this.

me: awright, fall back daylight savings time- an extra hour of sleep
my brain: *wakes me up at 430 now*

I got four in total but one was a single girl with a clipboard who laid me off due to AI and I wanted to dump my whole basket in her bag. She won, sorry she won.

i saw this and thought "this can't be a Sylvester and the magic pebble reference", what an apt comparison

i think of it as "brigadooning", in the sense that they'll respond to my text when they emerge again from the mist

Happy Halloween!

Light colored T-shirt with a graphic that looks like a local tortilla brand and the text says "Chinga La Migra". Preorder it and $8 per sale will go to benefit the Street Vendors Association of Chicago.

¡Chinga La Migra!

Chicago street vendors are being targeted by ICE & Border Patrol agents. As a result, many are staying home and not able to work. Preorder and $8 per shirt will go towards the Street Vendors Association of Chicago who offer financial assistance to vendors who stay home.

hey real question: is there ANYTHING i can do to get out of an apartment lease in georgia? they pressured me to sign almost a year in advance, had to move a few months later, but they won’t help me find a replacement tenant and have said they’ll sue me if I stop paying. I literally have a year left

draconym on tumblr: Me: "Fuck, the paper towels I want are on the top shelf." The Sir David Attenborough That Lives In My Brain: "Being smaller-than-average presents an added challenge to foraging. but necessity is the mother of invention. A little creativity turns a baguette into a tool, and voila--" (paper towel roll falls on my face) Sir David Attenborough, pleasantly: "Success."

This is a real thing that a judge had to say to the Chief of US Customs and Border Protection.

A lotta folks are gonna be losing their food stamps, so I’ll be reposting several comics about hunger & food insecurity.

When I was a kid I’d often go hungry. Eventually I came up with the idea to go to as many different church pizza parties as possible. Whatever works!

A lot of places in the USA only have food banks operated by faith based organizations. And they only serve members of their congregation. So, lie. Do whatever you gotta do!

SAM NEILL GENERAL JOHN MACARTHUR If you were to commit a murder, how would you do it? It's got to be big! No slipping something into someones drink, that's just pathetic. I'd use a steamroller, just leave a stain on the road. There's probably a couple of people I'd put under a steamroller, but I won't say who they are, otherwise when they see a steamroller coming their way they'll be on full alert. And steamrollers don't go very fast...

Never forget that time Sam Neill gave a quote about murder that was so beautifully kabonkers, we all assumed it was a Clickhole bit initially

a topless mermaid smugly enjoying a peach agua fresca- her lipstick is smeared and she has kissmarks on her torso to indicate whomever smeared it has been smooching on her. behind her as a backdrop is a large peach and some peach flowers.

I am begging the mainstream media to talk less about the East Wing & more about the loss of SNAP funding for the next few days.

The East Wing is gone. We can’t change that.

We *can* help people prepare for the loss of SNAP.

We can urge folks to donate to food banks.

We can give them warning.

@caitiehannan As a therapist I can say confidently, that while therapy is helpful, what most people really need is money

a photo of a small(ish) clear plastic boot full of a gradient beverage going from clear at eye top to pink on the bottom- a small decal on the side reads "Ole Smoky Distillery"

a thicc pale woman with long blonde hair in a classic pinup pose holding her hair off her neck, wearing daisy duke cutoffs and a gingham crop haltertop and matching gingham hair ribbon in a classic Cinderella color scheme- one foot is bare while the other wears a clear glass cowboy boot with the ole smoky decal

i got a commemorative moonshine boot with one of my bevs in georgia, so i drew a moonshine Cinderella to go with it
