I really think we took yet another turn for the worse as a society when we ran think piece after think piece about how the events in Alanis Morissette’s “Ironic” were not ironies but just bad luck. It’s such a pedantic argument and it was exhausting then and it’s utterly infuriating in retrospect.

Hell, and I cannot stress this enough, yes.

The way democrats are willingly and happily fumbling mamdani should be a masterclass on how to fuck up a free lunch. The party is so fucking stupid.

if I had to offer one piece of wisdom to people younger than me it would be 'never take life advice from someone who doesn't do their own laundry'

And now I will have strongbad rave music in my head all afternoon now.

Anyone have the number for #StarTrekDS9 Gabriel Bell? This sounds like ‘Sanctuary District’ crap to me. #BellRiots The Only Way to Stop This is to Vote 11/4 and in each and every election until he is Gone.

I know it’s not going to, but fuck, it feels like it’s gonna snow today

A picture of a candy package for something called “peelerz”

Look, I’m not the only one who sees that, right?

My friend needs some help. Shit’s tough out here. Anything you can do to help him out would be a great kindness in a harsh world.

Watching a local mutual aid group melt down because there’s far more need at the community fridge than folks are able to provide and they’re sitting in the Facebook echo chamber telling everyone that the folks in need should take less. But you can only slice a pie so thin.

… and said “that’s a Nazi website at this point. Any time spent there is not good.” Her counter point was that local news orgs still post there. I was so grateful the hibachi chef lit the onion volcano at that exact moment because I did not have kind words for what was going to follow. 2/2

On man. Y’all. I forgot the absolute winner from my MIL this weekend. And somehow, yeah. It beats trying to give my kid boost fruit. She wanted me to know she’s really been into X and there are some really great viewpoints on there. I slammed the conversation to a dead stop … 1/2

I have not, but I’m into it!

Movie poster for 2019’s “Ready or Not”

Finally watching “Ready or Not” and this is a perfect 90 minute movie that entertains with a mid script and a banging cast. Henry Czerny and Andie MacDowell are ALWAYS win.

Then I asked her if she’d rather do the cleaning. Absolutely not. I asked her if the money was worth the time back. It was, she said. So I told her that it sound like she’s getting a hell of a deal. And that shut her down. Fucking boomer narcissists. 2/2

Another tale of my MIL being a boner narcissist this weekend: she complained that the cleaning service was charging $180 for only 90 mins of work. I asked her how many people actually come. It’s two people cleaning for 90mins. 1/2

It's almost like they WANT violence in the streets?

Wait...

Women started fandom. Women started fanfic. Women started star Trek cons. Women invented beer, and the novel, while we're at it. Stop trying to erase women from spaces, you stupid, lazy, misogynistic fucks.

He’s right, you know.

I mean… cheap books!

Who protests brunch?

First in a series of drag brunches at Roslindale Substation at noon. Protesters were supposed to show up. None so far, but a large number of supported are lining Washington St.
#Boston

The chief executive officer of the USA is raising revenue through import duties without consulting the representatives of the people; exactly 250 years on from the start of the American Revolution.
Sing it, Alanis.

As you know, narcissists gonna narcissist.

Ending the evening of my MIL’s absurdly narcissistic run, she wanted me to know that she doesn’t have any biases and she’s forgiven herself for all that she’s done, she just hopes others can too. Dear reader, my light buzz has turned into a headache.

Ireland elects a leftist who campaigned on economic justice, Gaza Catherine Connolly, an independent endorsed by Sinn Fein, campaigned on calls for urgent domestic reform with an unflinching critique of Israel’s war in Gaza.

As an update, we are being punished for asking her to not give our child booze soaked fruit.

My mother in law just asked the hibachi chef where he was from and when he didn’t want to answer, she kept pressing. What the actual fuck

She’s got a masters in early childhood development, fyi. Just saying.

My mother in law tried to give my two year old an orange that had been sitting in the rum floater of her mai tai and I just have so many questions on this woman’s bonafides
