Guys what if we all just admitted quinoa tastes like bird cage gravel

Our big orange cat had to go to the emergency vet for a bunch of scary gastrointestinal tests that turned out to be nothing and the formal diagnosis was "dietary indiscretion" so feel free to use that phrase as needed next time you eat a bunch of ranch dressing off a picnic table

I just wanna know when I can buy my emergency dose of Quietus

If only we a had a 900 page document in our hands a year ago that said they were going to do this!

But Matt, the middle part of America is full of squeezy cheese and Thomas Kincade paintings, how will the brilliant Brooklyn hipster SURVIVE

Bluesky settings question: biggest reason I don't spend more time here is i HATE scrolling down to read my feed. Can I set this app like old Twitter, so you scroll UP to read new stuff? (When you get to top, you know you're done w your feed.) Thx for tips

Best thing I ever learned from the internet was that lady on Instagram who said "you don't need a medical reason, you can just use your heating pad recreationally"

I'm guessing hell?
Or Moscow, same diff.

Ope, the snobby professor blocked me OH NO HOW WILL I SURVIVE
