Worms & Snakes

I don't know what endorphins feel like. Broken brain?

This works big-picture for me but I want it to work in the short term. Is there some trick to making exercise have immediate mental health effects?

i'm teaming up with kalshi to pick up a car battery, angle it so that one of its corners is pointed at the ground, and drop it directly on my toenail

("virginal" feels like the grossest word I've ever typed)

It sounded so virginal though

This was just months before RFK's 2019 visit to Samoa to campaign against vaccination. Samoa subsequently had a measles outbreak that killed >80 people.

I'm listening to a 2019 episode of a science/medicine podcast (@tpwky.bsky.social!) about measles and it's SO depressing to think about how much worse things have gotten since then.

"Kiss your dad square on the lips"

No, telling people to "organize" is still too vague. The vast majority of people need more direction than that.

This lady is weird, you don't need to draw any conclusions about Americans based on her.

My therapist used the phrase "manic girl spring." It's a difficult season for me too.

Bombs bad. Follow me for more of this sophisticated political analysis.

War bad

If I had one wish it would be to make Austin Powers not problematic

"What's your why?"

I think you're a little too optimistic about the consequences for any man who abuses teenage girls.

Harvest Moon 64 the cutest game of all time

It shouldn't be that hard for people to muster a reaction that isn't "Black people shouldn't have been offended" OR "he secretly meant it and/or should be banned from public events."

"[The BBC's handling of the incident] disrespected Jordan and Lindo, who were forced to absorb the ugliest word in Black history in front of a crowd and cameras. It exposed Davidson — and, by extension, the Tourette’s community — to a tidal wave of backlash rooted in misunderstanding."

When you accidentally step on someone's foot, you apologize for doing it. You don't say, "I'm sorry if you thought I did that on purpose."

"Sewer slide" ☹️

Dunking your head in a toilet day and night, accusing you of swirlie derangement syndrome.

"Just don't get coerced" okay!

Did you know that each and every snowflake is small

When the internet tells me who the villain is so I can replace my sadness with righteous anger

No, it is a big deal. Just because he can't control it doesn't mean it's not harmful. To be called that word when you're onstage and unable to react? It's horrible.

Because it was basically the worst thing he could say. The same reason he's blurted out "I have a bomb" at the airport.
