We are at an airport restaurant. A robot just drove up to us with our food, said, "Hi! Here I am!" and then drove away with our food.

Please remember that the discourse that imagines all actors, musicians and any creative celebrity to be extremely rich is the same fascist discourse that imagines Hollywood as the "elites" while literal billionaires are running the country and destroying lives.

It looks like the Blake Lively case is headed for trial and I’m steeling myself to have to relive another version of Depp v. Heard. Like Final Destination for viral smear campaigns against celebrity women

My whole life I haven't been able to burp. It's caused me so many problems - incl horrible sleep, painful hiccups, extremely painful vomiting (which was horrifying during pregnancy). I had no idea this was a condition. This episode of unexplainable has me sobbing. open.spotify.com/episode/0Aba...
