Clue (1985) is peak cinema. I will not be taking any questions

Long awaited art mail from @gloomworks.bsky.social . Handpainted Force of Wills with 70% less TERF art, well in time for Eternal Weekend <3

Got my vote in a solid 35 minutes before polling closed. In my defense it was a hard one this time ‘round

Absolutely amazing to see. Proud to have worked there with these awesome folks in the past. They keep on winning 🙏
This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free.

Watching Poppy live at the Tons of Rock festival, and I’m probably one of the very few hearing her say «I am Poppy», and reacting with «She said the line!!»

Welp, the official verdict is in, and my capacity for work has been deemed to cap at 50% employment.

No idea what to do with this information, but there it is

No, *you’re* spending too much of your workday reading up on the PWHL expansion draft, instead of writing

Swap "humanities scholar" for "librarian" or "educator" and you'll have an idea of what it's like right now in secondary and lower schools.
If I see one more humanities scholar offer a seminar about how other humanities scholars can harness the "efficiency and innovation" of Gen "A.I." I am going to personally throw them in a river.

Through the power of tidying up, I have transformed my previously cluttered surfaces into an even larger amount of cluttered surfaces

A teenage girl on the subway told me my jacket was cool, after staring at my buttons for a full minute. I’ve never felt so validated in my life

On the one hand I'm pretty sure I'm being scammed by a bot on Tinder. On the other hand, I need practice replying to messages on dating apps...

So I guess it can use it as a writing workshop?

Made the top8 for the Swedish Vintage M:tG nationals again. Let’s see if this year goes better than the last

Why does the urge to rewatch long unfiction projects only come over me when I physically *can’t* so that?

Case in point, the massive need I feel to rewatch «Paranormal Paranoids» when I’m on a cross-border buss to a convention with spotty internet and no laptop…

At the tender age of 41, I have just assembled my first desk chair to come from a box, and not a sidewalk.

Being an adult is going great y’all…

I efficiently-packed too close to the sun. While the bag will 100% fit under the seat in front of me, it’s also so heavy that I can barely carry it <.<

I am deeply aware of all we now know about Neil Gaiman, and I will never be an apologist, but that will never change the truth impact this single panel had on my life

For the second time in my life someone’s first words to me were «you look like Brad Pitt» considering the last time was 12 years ago, I’ll take that as a compliment
