Somehow I get paid to write, despite my best efforts to become a scientist. Bad at magic the gathering, but very enthusiastic. She/her

Okay but the name "Guava Lava" makes me think I'm going to shit my pants.

At this moment my most confident baseless opinion is that my family could rid the east coast of their green crabs. Just need airfare and a butter allotment.

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

It was infuriating to have the whole state vote in favor of better redistricting only to have the state legislature tell us "no" like we were petulant children. Still infuriating that it took so long for someone to tell them "actually yes."

As someone who voted for prop 4 back in *2018* only to watch those fucks undo everything Utahns voted for, it's sweet revenge to see them get theirs seven years later, even if I did move years ago. Thank you for highlighting this.

Well the good news is that I won't be debating any machines because that's a ridiculous thing to do, and if they do argue with me I know how to turn them off.

Gemini was checked "use as default" (and i sure the fuck didn't set it that way, this was a silent push)
Nuke that, and suddenly, folders that took up to a minute to populate and sort do so in a fraction of a second.

I'm haunted by ghosts of many sandwiches but an all-time champion is a club-style veggie sandwich on marbled rye with ingredients stacked so tightly and precisely you'd think a drill sergeant commanded them, made by a grandma who ran a corner store I frequented in college. I yearn for that sandwich.

I love all pasta but it's time to live my truth: lasagna noodles are Too Much, they're either too much chew or too much mush. Baked pasta over lasagna any day of the week.

You know, I'm real tired of hearing the "but lots of young men accidentally get a nazi tattoo" excuses. I'm from a state with an unusually high concentration of white supremacists and none of my friends accidentally got nazi tattoos and kept them for 20 years. It's not a high bar to clear.

Breathtaking, unsettling, healing: a new exhibit by Black US artists transforms Confederate monuments The sweeping exhibition Monuments opens in Los Angeles on 23 October and is on view through May

Charlottesville finally took down its Confederate monuments in 2021.

The statue of Robert E. Lee was melted down.

The statue of Stonewall Jackson was given to artist Kara Walker.

This is what she did with it:

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

Holy shit, I read this in one sitting because I just couldn't stop. I didn't expect to find so much of my own life in it. @keezyyoung.bsky.social made something really, truly beautiful. I'm going to be carrying it around in my soul for a while.

Tumblr post from every-lemon 
Sep 8

so my spouse is part of a weirdly intense but mostly benign men's workout group that meets at like, 5:30am outside every day, even in winter. they do a lot of burpees and lugging cinder blocks up hills and stuff.
they take turns leading the workouts and tomorrow is his turn. I asked what he was planning. he handed me a sheet of William Carlos William poems from a large stack he'd printed.
I said "what" and he explained, helpfully, "it's a William Carlos William themed workout." I asked what inspired it and he said "l've been planning this for months."

it was a smash hit.
a dozen guys showed up (more than usual). spouse brought a red wheelbarrow and they took turns bringing cinder blocks up the hill with it. then they broke up in teams and did a relay with an "icebox" (cooler filled with 40lbs of ice). at the end he opened the cooler to reveal it was full of beach plum lacroix and all the guys cheered. they drank sparkling water as he read 'approach of winter' out loud.
he was home by 6:30am.
