Mountain Dew was invented as a means of phasing between cursed dimensions.
Dr Pepper was invented as a low-cost rat poison
Can you think of examples where people use technologies differently from what the developers intended, whether unintentionally or as an act of resistance?

Naveed Azkhat, 32, became overwhelmed at the busy, brightly lit gallery and decided to rest on a chair in one of the exhibition rooms as his shutdown took hold. His hunched, rigid posture led visitors to mistake him for the famous sculpture, and he soon attracted a crowd.

A Valentine’s Day poem.
Chosen
I have been chosen
As a foil
An escape
A barrier
And a bridge.
I have been chosen
As an anchor
A mask
A safe space
And a home base.
I have never been chosen
For love.
❤️

clink, clink, clink.
Change over day is closer than you think.
Learn the value of the coins and the way that they appear
and things will be much smoother when the decimals are here.

Strength is not always movement.
Sometimes it is stillness.
Sometimes it is patience.
Sometimes it is the quiet refusal
to be carried away by the storm.

This is why you need to be reading books and writing your own emails, by the way. When you outsource your thinking abilities, you risk turning your brain into soup. Heavy dependence on AI has already been linked with severe cognitive decline. What you don’t use, you will lose.

The rest of the bskyverse out here with sophisticated cat names like Amani and Adonis and mine are Cricket, Moth and Scooter because I can't even stick to a theme.
You all my husband just sent a video from the vet’s office, Armani is stoned out of his MIND it’s hilarious
“Human gave me a churu that tasted funny and now I can hear colors. I’m still going to cut the vet later.”
(He’s fine, just a regularly scheduled checkup on his chronic conditions. The vet won’t see him unless he takes drugs first.)

Dr, in February: your iron is now critically low.

On first glance I thought this was yet another avant-garde way to say "autistic" without saying "autistic". Like when Autist had a hot moment. God save us from the Autist Auteurs. You know they'd be insufferable and not for 'tism reasons.
Just seen a TV critic using the word “Auteur” in describing a sitcom, and I am not having that.

Hey fam, had a weird couple of weeks and am feeling pretty low tonight. I'll be fine, but anyone got any good news, cute animals or hugs to spare? Life is just being a wee bit arse.
