I swear at some point I will do a thread of how awesome the Lego botanical sets are, but in the meantime, a new bouquet arrived in the mail. Here is a photo of the previous bouquet.
Things may still suck so here's a thread of Lego Botanicals I have put together over the past year.
This was incredible to watch.

Excellent thread.
Thinking today about all the trauma, hysterical laughter, and people drop-kicking 2025 into the bin because hahaha that fucking SUCKED. And the last several years informing how we look ahead.
And also thinking of Queen, Freddie, The Show Must Go On, and *slams vodka* “I’ll fucking do it, darling.”

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”
In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

Conservative outlets love this pocket-watching hypocrisy trope, especially as some sort of gotcha for WOC, by willfully conflating left politics with forced universal aceticism.
To them, socialists are not supposed to be stylish or attractive. Rama's both, and on her own terms, not maga aesthetic.

What the KENNEDY Center used to be…
Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

I'm probably going to have to watch it again to make an opinion as it's been a long time but I do remember liking the parade scene

Hey everybody doing the favorite tumblr thing…does anyone have the story of the guy who does shrooms and says he’s the reincarnation of an Italian chef and then cooks the best meal his Italian in-laws have ever eaten?

All the ones they censored or played after hours, especially Queen.
MTV is officially ending all of its music channels.
In honor of that, what's your favorite music video?

THE DAY CARES ARE LOCKED BECAUSE YOU MADE A GENERATION-LONG EFFORT TO MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE TO KILL THE CHILDREN INSIDE THEM YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING GHOULS
these fucking people. they pass laws to make sure every person with a screw loose who wants an Armalite can show up to the day care armed & ready to kill, then complain that the day cares are locked to protect the children inside
CNN: “Surely you don’t think a daycare should be unlocked.”
SHIRLEY: “There should be a reception area.”
CNN: “No, every day care is locked.”
SHIRLEY: “Fair point.” 🤔
He shows up to a day care with masked men and wonders why they don’t let him in.
