He looks like he bites

I love how unhinged Chevy Chase looks throughout the Christmas Vacation etc movies

I always thought my cousin with the massive blue ray collection was a little crazy, but now I’m realizing he was the smart one

I would rather die in a ditch

Girl I said what I motherfucking said

I was half joking ranting about communism and my acquaintance interjected with “no, democratic socialism”

“Roma” tomatoes

Who up ringing their organic produce up as regular at the self check

I have no irl kosher friends but what if my Bluesky buds came over??

My urge forever is to cook for people and especially if they have restrictions that make it hard to enjoy the standard stuff. I saw a comedian talking about how Cajun food basically seems to be made to spite kosher law but it got me on a jag thinking about how to make my Cajun cooking kosher

👀

Po boy that is lol

thanks a lot, big brain

I have no restrictions but it would be fun to do a trip there with a focus on non Cajun cooking because there’s sooooo much good stuff to eat that’s not just the same menu of pecan crusted redfish, etouffe, po sandwich, etc. I love all those things, but there’s SO MUCH more!

See that’s a whole different story, these people didn’t have any religious or health related restrictions, they’re just picky. We went to pretty varied kinds of restaurants, from fish fry to 5 star Cajun to Italian and they picked at their food and made a yucky face

Could do without my brain at random being like “remember when you had to call 911?”

I went to New Orleans with some acquaintances years ago and the visit made me hate their guts because all they wanted to eat was subway lol

Joe Wilson @cantcny.bsky.social • 11h Pretty sure its because Gen X did enough as parents to not fuck up their kids so much they ran to someone's bed to find love and connection.

Incredible mind on this commenter

Very, very good.

All I remember from that trip is a) my mother in law trying to convince me to go to urgent care and b) my four(?) hour layover at the Atlanta airport where I crammed myself into a chair and tried in vain to sleep.

I definitely feel the same mentally as I did five years ago. But now I feel the effects of mild obesity that I didn’t at the time—joint pain, chafing etc. But it is wild how consistent my mental image of myself has been, in spite of all evidence to the contrary

At the very beginning of Covid I’m p sure I caught it in an airport and was dog sick at my husband’s grandma’s funeral. I don’t even really remember it bc I was so sick. My dad got me from the airport bc I had to go home ahead of Shawn and he brought me home and got me medicine and made me ramen 🥺

Self image stuff aside, I also saw lots of pics of my Dad while he was still here and in better shape than he was at the end and that sucked too.

For real!! Like these pics of me from 5 years ago, I’m looking at them now like what the fuck was I thinking?? How could I have ever thought that????

I split a pair at the crotch a little ways back, I honestly think because they were poor quality stretch material but man was it a mental blow

I’ve expanded my black band tee collection lately because I’ve been getting into metal music lol, so that’s fine, but not fitting into jeans I like or wearing them out too soon because my thighs rub has been really rough.

My lip ring was also so sexy but I can’t wear it bc I kept a bar that was too long in there and it eroded my gumline 😭 😭 😭

It’s also just, a complete mind fuck to look at these pictures and know what a burning ruin my self image was at the time. Looking at them feels like looking at a different person. identifying my own beauty is hard enough, and there’s also this feeling of loss because I don’t look like that anymore

Double chin notwithstanding I think new clothes I could style well would go a long way for my self image
