A few years ago when a whole lot of people, myself included, were pretty loud about this whole piece of shit and we basically just got yelled at and called delusional, too extreme, etc. Now those people calling us delusional are doing the fake exasperation thing and I just can't stomach it.

Was introduced to some trans folks by friend when I was in my 20s, and it kinda washed over me because they were… just people. Nevertheless when trans rights became a full-fledged mainstream talking point, I realized it was then critical to support those people asafp

It’s on my agenda but when I consulted my trick knee about the weather it signaled a storm over yonder, so I may have to wait

Luckily we have a greenhouse and that seems to have kept almost all of our plants alive through the winter, so here’s hoping that does the trick. I have no idea how old it is but with any luck we’ll have some paw paws in a few years and I’ll send you some jam or preserves or something

I remember reading a lot about them a few years back and wanting to get a tree, you just don’t see them out here very often and this one was fairly cheap. Had to jump on it. I’ve still never had a paw paw but literally everyone raves about them

The variety they have right now is amazing, I’m going back next week for berries and herbs

Photo meme of Star Trek character Geordi La Forge in the style of the Drake meme.

Top portion of the meme says "my cat being offered special dietary cat food that costs $80 a bag" with Geordi appearing to say no. Bottom portion of the meme says "my cat finding the plastic covering for the toilet paper rolls at 3:29am" with Geordi appearing to react positively.

Newspaper clipping with text and sketches describing the scene of a crime. Headline at top reads, "Druggist, awakened by dog, engages in pistol duel with burglars; kills one and believes another is wounded as result of fusillade"

In an incredible amount of pain from doing rigorous activities such as "walking around" and "standing there watching softball," but, and I don't even say this in jest, today was a reminder that I lived and I'm still alive.

Finished the first two seasons and I'll say this much: it's been a while since I've watched a new TV show that made me either laugh out loud, guffawing like a drunk hyena, or just go, "HO-LY SHIIIIIIIIT!" this many times

PNW people: In-N-Out is stupid, I don't know why Californians, also stupid, eat there. It's not very good

me: Yeah, it's pretty good, not the greatest thing I've ever had, I dunno

Actually it's a really clever play by my knees, ratcheting the intense pain upwards to distract me from the fucking everything falling apart, it's a smart move

Photo collage/meme of a person throwing punches and photos related to the 1998 film "Dark City." Toward the top of the photo, text reads, "What do you mean you don't like the 1998 film Dark City?"

Staving off reckless depression and hopelessness by watching "The Boys." Only a few episodes in and not gonna lie, it's good. Not really enjoying the overuse of known crapass band Jane's Addiction, but nothing can be perfect

You'd be surprised how many people don't do the roasting, or just boil, and wonder why it's only ok
