I love the moment in Rings of Power where a young Sauron is at the forge of Eregion with Celebrimbor, and he says—

“Looks like I’m—“

*stares directly into the camera*

“— the LORD of the RINGS.”

Which cues Thin Lizzy’s The Boys Are Back in Town, because of course Amazon can afford to license it.

Merry Christmas to people with strained families, shitty families, or no family at all. I promise you there are so many of us who are struggling to get through these days, as best we can, and that's enough. You are not alone.❤️

Going on 3 years since I had enough money to not work every day Christmas week. Y’all being like “just take the week off” — you are not allowed to tell someone that unless you Venmo them $1500

Having a friend show you their A.I. art is like when a friend forces you to listen to a bad song they wrote.

On an 3.4 string guitar.

With lyrics in three languages, one of them gibberish.

And instead of one friend at a party once in a blue moon, it’s many friends out of nowhere every day.

I wonder when everyone will realize— these “bathroom violations” that conservatives project onto trans people?

It was all a complete, obvious con. Conservatives gave themselves a moralistic excuse to violate you in the bathroom.

They’re essentially the only people doing it.

An ABUNDANCE of it.

I keep getting into self-care authors who, one day, are like

"I'm hosting a retreat for women ONLY! All my self-care and healing routines have only ever been for WOMEN. If you are not a woman, what the FUCK are you doing enjoying MY work? Get out of our safe space, OGRE. The age of MAN has ENDED."

I’ve been in love twice, and let me tell you firsthand, it’s predictable and overrated.

“Maybe you’re the common element in these disasters, Dan!”

Ew! I already go to therapy to have someone tell me that!

The fact that all financial assistance has a minimum income requirement is so brutal.

"We're here for you... unless you need us!"

What are you, health insurance?

Some artists make great art by overcoming trauma.

Other artists have no compassion, and since they waste zero time thinking about others, they are exceedingly efficient.

Develop a codependent relationship with an artist and find out which is which!

I loved KPop Demon Hunters, but Mira briefly acting attracted to men was one of the most difficult suspensions of disbelief I have encountered in animation

There’s a WHOLE LOTTA self-involved folks “practicing radical honesty” before they have the slightest fucking clue what “compassion” is

Weird how everyone suddenly has a “really bad cold” or “allergies are crazy” but it’s “definitely not COVID” so “it’s fine”
