I like to think there's a little something for everyone here. There isn't, but I can think what I want.

Skeet and skoot are both horrible and I will just continue to call them posts because I’m old and I’ve earned this.

I think the picture on the left was 1920s and the one of the right early 1930s. But I'm not certain now.

It was a slightly strange little exhibition but it had some nice stuff. These are the two pictures that jumped out at me though.

BlueSky has immediately and correctly flagged this as containing a bum. This is considered adult content, because adults have bums.

A black and white picture of a couple arm in arm. The person on the left has a not fancy hat and is gazing to their right. The person on the right is taller, has a fancy hat, and is gazing directly into the camera with a mischievous expression. Their gender expression seems more interesting than you might expect from the time period. A naked man upside down in ten inches of water. His face is dripping, his torso is muscular with his back towards the camera, his buttocks are resplendent.

I'm not in Norway any more but I went to a museum in Tromsø that had a little exhibition on queer history in the early 20th century. Love how much personality you get from these pictures.

Took the kids to a bday party yesterday. One of the kids kept whispering in the ear of other children at the party, dragging them off somewhere for a few minutes at a time. She did it to my youngest, and when I asked him about it that night he said, "we were just going to see the god in the mirror"

This is the warning on the blood pressure monitor my dad just got.

Exceptional work. Anybody know what the fuck it’s supposed to mean?

Last line is especially ominous

Just finding room to slot this into the very very full 'the problem is violent and/or abusive cis men, MANY of which are activists within the Transphobia movement' file

The state of mainstream trans discourse is that a morning show presenter will conspiracise about carceral consequences for transphobia while the West has declared a crusade against trans healthcare and trans existence.

This is an excellent rule for storytelling but also implies that Philip Pullman witnessed the death of God as a boy.
