Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later

Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

Picture of Luigi perp walk with text over layed "Experts warn Luigi Mangione could walk free" Mayor Adams has been made up like a clown.

Don't threaten me with a good time

Is Luigi a hero?

everybody at Safeway is talking about the rainbow out in the parking lot and that's why I'm not a pessimist

Really wish I had more than two thumbs so I could show just how much I absolutely loved #Wicked . Good thing we have emojis

[WIP] Update from today. #2dart #sketch #wip #pencil

A pencil-and-paper sketch of a woman with shoulder-length hair caressing a man’s face with her hand, as she looks into his eyes with an enamored expression. The woman is slightly elevated above the man, so her head tilts slightly downward while the man gazes upward at her.

[WIP] Whenever I leave home on an overnight trip, I bring along my sketching materials. Here’s a little something I started yesterday afternoon; working title is “The Gaze”. #2dart #sketch #wip #pencil

Let’s not kid ourselves. A pretty sizeable chunk of us born-and-raised U.S. citizens are still here only because we’re too economically disadvantaged to emigrate somewhere better.

First post:
I post a lot about ACUs - Accessory Commercial Units. Small neighborhood serving retail buildings in front of residential buildings.

ACUs keep it local and make it walkable. If you see one in your town, send me a photo and location.

A 3/4 angle portrait of a young white woman with blonde hair smiling and laughing while looking in the viewer’s direction; drawn by the author on paper with pencil

Took several days but I finally finished a portrait of my mom as she looked in the mid-1970s. It’s my first-ever portrait attempt so don’t be too mean please #art #sketch #portrait #visualart

I hesitate to fully trust any authority figure who is doing everything they can to constantly exude “positivity” while on the job

Everybody goes through a phase in their life where they are, in some form and degree, unmistakably cringe. If you’re thinking there’s never been anything cringeworthy that you’ve done in your whole life thus far…you’re probably in the midst of your own cringe phase as we speak

How tragic that the rush of dopamine from folding a load of laundry will never outweigh the executive dysfunction preventing me from just doing it

I didn’t know you were interested in audiobook recording, that’s awesome! Congrats!!

Needs bollards

Idk about anyone else but the amount of right-wing and/or Zionist ads I’ve been seeing on my IG feed is *astounding*.

And yes, I started seeing it pretty much right after the Israeli gov’t started its assault on Gaza.

I have a mouth and want to scream, but I won’t because I don’t like drawing attention to myself

genuinely really great to join a bunch of your neighbors to politely but firmly demand traffic calming on your street and then have council say "yeah, we can do that"

As a banking industry person I can tell you that this is the etymologically-correct term

I’ve peaked 🥹

And here I thought that they stopped trying with kids content years ago lol

Inside you there are two wolves.

Now more wolves.

They're changing the behaviour of the deer.

The willows are growing back among the river.

The beavers are making dams.

Inside you there are more beavers than you could have ever expected.
