I wish I got to experience being an adult in the world pre-internet. Seems like that would’ve been nice.

I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t see what the problem is. Obviously they really wanted their cat to win, and the more money donated the better. So who cares that they sniped the win. I certainly wouldn’t call it mean or petty.

tiktok is no longer addictive for me because i’ve trained my fyp to only show me videos that have less than 50 likes. i still enjoy the content — i see stuff that the random, normal people who uploaded it didn’t actually expect anyone to see. much more intimate, calmer feed.

the Christian attitude that everything is going to keep getting more and more fucked up but it doesn’t matter because God holds the magic reset button def seems like a lie the devil would tell, actually. it’s a belief that allows for evil to flourish while negating the need for action

thinking about how i was raised by an apocalyptic Christian mom who gave me advice such as it didn’t matter what i majored in, what job i got, or how much money i saved bc my adulthood would be cut short by the collapse of society. & she wonders why i struggle to live a productive, meaningful life 🙃

lately I am so fucking angry thinking about the avalanche of immoral and/or illegal things trump & his gov have done, from last term to now, and how it all just seems to get washed from public memory when the next horrible thing happens. when will all these rocks actually be called a mountain?

“The protesters are being paid” A: No, obviously. B: Conservative voters in Wisconsin were being paid with the chance for a million dollars and then STILL lost. By a lot. What’s your excuse?

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

The Great Michigan Pizza Funeral was the ceremonial disposal of 29,188 frozen cheese-and-mushroom pizzas in Ossineke, Michigan, on March 5, 1973.[1][2] The manufacturer, Ilario "Mario" Fabbrini,[3] had been ordered to recall the pizzas by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) after initial tests suggested the presence of botulism-causing bacteria in a batch of canned mushrooms.

Herman Melville's "Moby Dick" has perhaps the most memorable opening line in all of Western literature: "I hope you motherfuckers like reading about whales"
