Frogtober!

I’d love to know how many of those murders are domestic violence. Women are not believed by police in red states.

I’m Thrilled to Announce I’ve Been Cast as Stickles the Gender-Policing Elf in HBO Max’s New Harry Potter Series The rumors are true: I’m overjoyed and not at all ashamed to share that I’ll be joining the HBO Max Harry Potter family as Stickles the Gender-Poli...

"My first scene is on the Hogwarts Express, where I scold a male student for transforming into a butter churn that’s a little too female-presenting."

He’s a messianic megalomaniac. What did he do now?

Social media is very addictive, and people live their lives to feed the addiction: they buy clothes, change their diets, relationships, or politics, based on an algorithm.

That’s part of the reason BlueSky is great. It doesn’t prioritize posts by likes.

BlueSky is social media methadone.

Bots?

Squee!!

Walking through the corner café at late afternoon, I found a giant pumpkin humming with candlelight. Just then, owl calls rose from behind the patch. The night grew quieter, leaving only candlelight in the gourds. PatchStories AutumnPumpkins

See you all on OCTOBER 18 — No kings march & protest.
Everybody in the streets!

There are a couple of things that run in my family--endogenous depression, anxiety disorders, what used to be called Asperger's--but nothing with delusions.

A friend from college is delusional. Thiel sounds like her. It's kind of hard to miss.

Tiny Greta Thunberg fist bumping Obama. He's at least a foot taller.

"Greta Thunberg is a legionnaire of the AntiChrist."

Thiel is delusional.

If you’re not a citizen, you’re not going to use any of these online spaces. Who do they think they’re going to catch?

This will not end well.

A friend from school became schizophrenic. She sounds like this.

There’s whole elaborate paranoid scheme that pulls from disparate sources that speak only to the delusional person.

My friend never got help, because of a lot of small town dynamics. I suspect Thiel has his own version of that.

Too many Portlanders in frog costumes.

Meanwhile in war-ravaged Portland.

I’ve never watched an episode of Friends, any reality television, the Great British BakeOff, Love Actually, most of the Star Wars prequels, any old Doctor Who, The Office, or Gilmore Girls.

I’ve also never played WarHammer or D’n’D, and I don’t game, at all.

Should you need one, I built a Samhain feed. #Witchsky #witchsky #Halloween #pagan

They all have faces. Not scary.

Can someone tell me when we stopped using the word “outfit” and just started using the word “fit”, for clothes?

I think I missed a memo.

You meet saints everywhere. They can be anywhere. They are people behaving decently in an indecent society. - Kurt Vonnegut
