Look at Bad Bunny helping these gringos learn Spanish. He can do it all.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

Alright Bluesky, my Vyvanse is telling me I’m done with you for the day. Stay safe out there and all that jazz.

Rad AF! And by “radical” I mean both “very awesome” as well as “radically progressive.” Mad respect. 🤙🏽

I mean, I have before! Just go for it next time! If you’re not a problematic neighbor, I feel like it tends to actually go over well.

Might be because it’s hard enough to meet new friends as adults as it is (especially in the PNW), so people seem starved for new interactions and fresh stories.

Valid grievance IMO. Anytime I lost substantial weight, I’d have to go get new clothes (not just my old graphic tees). But I always keep old stuff, because I know my lazy ass ends up putting the weight back on. Medical-related is a whole different situation, so I’m sure it’s annoying and expensive!

Damn, if I still tried to do content creation at all, I’d absolutely work with you! You’re trustworthy, passionate, and fun, so I’m sure anyone who gets that chance will love it.

Alas, I left those ambitions behind in 2019 (and spicy content in 2022). But congrats on the new gig!

Why the fuck did Bluesky add a link to that? 🤨 Weird.

Damn, that stinks. How big were the plans? Like a “lots of money down the drain” sort of cancellation? Or like missing a friend’s birthday party (equally a bummer) sort?

I feel like I never get notifications from here, so I keep forgetting it exists (sorry y’all).

Meanwhile, I get TOO MANY from Threads. But none of the settings changes I make to either app seem to make a difference.

I hate to admit that Twitter got notifs right (though it *is* from pre-X days).

I gotta be honest with y’all, I forgot this app was here. My social media time is primarily TikTok these days, but the sheer number of ads there is starting to annoy me. I wanted news, but I’m getting some of that from Substack now… so for social fix I may come back here.

Some of them are just out there! I can understand thematic costumes — like Rudolf being an Emperor, or Opera being in Shakespearian garb — but a few of the designs don’t have themes; they are just “generic anime girl” or “magical girl.”

To Zelensky:

Don’t sign shit that the U.S. puts in front of you! The world at large should have your back! Our own armed forces should look at this and know we should NOT be fighting our allies.

Trump and the GOP just have Putin’s dick in one hole and Elon’s in another.

Sleep study results that say I stop breathing 37 times an hour and need a CPAP machine.

Got my sleep study results back.

Sooooo yeeeaaahhhh sorry to my former partners. 😅 My bad.

On the plus side, I think this means I might qualify for the jaw surgery I need as well… 🤔

Just in case: If you are in the Seattle-area and need a document notarized to protect yourself and your family from this fascist regime but are too afraid/lack the funds to go to a UPS store or similar, I am a notary and I will notarize your documents *for free*.

Excellent reference. 👏🏽 🥤

And at the same time, I have to seek out global news, and it only stays visible for a short while.

Protests against fascism, and trying to speak out for us Americans, are happening globally right now! Yet western media isn’t covering any of it, and it seems to be being censored on the app.

The TikTok algorithm has clearly been altered for Americans, and it feels like it’s “slowly” being turned into Reels.

I don’t interact with ‘gooner’ content outside of hyping my SW friends (many of whom don’t market on TT), but suddenly it’s flooding my FYP while activist stuff is being hidden…

Dr. Jacoby from Twin Peaks: The Return, wearing glasses with one red lens and one blue lens. Text reads "The fucks are at it again!"

me every time I check the news in 2025

Take intermittent breaks from the Terrible News™ waves and check out some other media like books or TV shows. Might I recommend a few?

• “Fahrenheit 451”
• “Animal Farm”
• “1984”
• “One Piece”

…no that last one is not a joke. It’s genuinely fantastic given the current political climate. Trust me.

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.

I notice people being extra "brave" on even bluesky lmao, if you follow me and support my friends losing their civil rights over the next 4 years I'm going to put a curse on you

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

Musk did a full-on Nazi salute on stage at Trump’s inauguration. I fucking already knew they were Nazis, but they came out DAY ONE with the salute. Jesus fucking Christ… I’m angry and scared.

Defend the proletariat.
Deny the status quo.
Depose the aristocracy.

All the Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jack Antonoff haters *real* quiet this past week!

With “Moana 2” people suddenly miss Lin when he ain’t there, and the soundtrack is boring.

And with “GNX” you suddenly realize Jack always had that game.

Y’all gotta channel your hating better. 💅🏽

If they had tried to make a perfect ending, it would have meant the end to so many possible threads for future stories… so for the imperfection, I am grateful.

Somewhat #ArcaneSpoilers

A quote from the final episode and knowing there will be more Runeterra stories (and a bit of copium) have helped me come to terms with the ending:

“There is no prize to perfection; only an end to pursuit.”

The ending of “Arcane” was all at once Amazing, deeply saddening, and very unfulfilling.

I feel empty, and like so much was left unfinished. And not in a “you fill in the rest” way, but in a way that would only be justified if there were more to come.

But there isn’t. And so I’m at a loss.
