Image from Authority #6 of Jenny Sparks in 1920 fighting a kind of scientific-romance spaceship

An apple a day
Is mother and slay

it's laughable. what would the point even be?

when I was
a young man

I’m not really
sure how it
goes, but it’s
sad and it’s
sweet and I
knew it complete
when I wore

Accidentally had fully caffeinated coffee at like 930 and here’s the thing: i had a fantastic night. Are we sure this isn’t a better way to live? What if “sleep hygiene” stuff is just a psyop to make us weaker and sadder?

when i heard this in the episode i was like, wow, it's amazing Art held on to that file all these years. but then i saw this

Thank you for listening to Media Club Plus

i guess you could use a dictionary file of all words and phrases in english, scrape Trends and build a local database to do your reverse search in... but they'd probably get pretty mad

When God made horses... He said, you will have a very special job. Humans will confide in you, trust you, and respect your wisdom. They will ask, am I just not good enough? Am I unloved? Am I doomed to experience dark days forever? And that is why you will say, neigh.

Beautiful post

i found it annoying, but i was playing a pirated Russian version that, to save on space, deleted all the voice files, so i didn't get any of the announcements. also i jumped off the walkway where Barney greets you and died, and thought that was bullshit. still loved the game though

My Daughter came home from the shopping mall. She was wearing a new shirt — one that said "Mean People Suck" in big bold letters. "Daughter," I said, " hold on a minute." She paused. I knew she didn't want to have this conversation. I said "Now, I know if that statement was about any other group, you'd think it was Prejudice. Can you explain why, in this case, you would think it's ok?" My Daughter got a sheepish look. "Mom," she said, can I borrow your gun?" "What for?," I asked. "Mom, please, it's important!" "Well," I said, "you may." And I handed the gun to her. Right then and there, she ripped the shirt off and emptied the clip into it. I gained a new Daughter that day. Stronger and wiser than the one I'd had before.

4 social media posts in a row. Susan Wottles says, I've realized I'm fine having never had a pear in my life like who cares. keep telling me how good they are I'll never have one. Wendy Groat says, when you were in school did they teach you about cars? why didnt they teach us about them? we should have known about the parts of the car, steering wheel, the buttons. Jorin Gleat says, I really think in this age you could truly say that trying to buy restaurant food nowadays is like learning another “language.” Ken Wombt says, I remember everything from being a baby and I wish I could be a baby. Aside: (I don’t know any of the car buttons)

Toad sits glumly on his bed while Frog looks on. From "Tomorrow" In *Days with Frog and Toad*

Toad sat on the edge of his bed. “Blah,” said Toad. “I feel down in the dumps.”

“Why?” asked Frog.

“I am thinking about tomorrow,” said Toad.

Self-portrait of Suzanne Valadon that shows her smoking in bed while gazing off into the middle distance. She’s wearing a peach-coloured camisole and green and white striped pants cotton pants with a drawstring. Her bed and the curtains around her bed are blue with a pattern of white leaves.

This week in Art I Am Obsessed With: this self-portrait by Suzanne Valadon. It looks so incredibly contemporary (I would literally wear that exact outfit on hot summer day) but it’s from 1923. Anyway, love a queen with flowy pants and a dangling cigarette!

Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

As I read this, I'm thinking about the man I interviewed who had to be hospitalized from the Covid he caught at the poultry processing plant and he got fired for it and he still has long Covid
