If car dealerships are going to keep you trapped while you wait for your car, why don’t they have more comfortable seating?

Our number one Christmas wish is for our wobbly cats Ash & Willow to finally have a forever home, after more than a year in our rescue. We know placing cats with special needs can be hard but we promise these two are worth the wait. Learn more about them & apply at crits4cats.petfinder.org

So… how do I get all the music I own back on my iPhone? I’ve never subbed to Apple music. These are albums I own on CD that used to be on my phone and suddenly aren’t.

Please!!!
If someone said some terrible thing that you want to discuss on your own timeline, just start the conversation there, framed for discussion.
If you can't do that without the screencap or the post to mock, maybe it wasn't a super important thought that needs sharing!

STOP dunking on bad opinions. STOP sharing screenshots of bad opinions. You are not earning karma points; you are not showing how great your own opinions are; you are literally spreading the bad opinions like manure.
Just STOP.
Just STOP.
guys i blocked Matt Yglesias. please stop putting his posts as screenshots back on the timeline.
we all know he's an asshole who has bad opinions. he is literally trying to rage bait you into sharing them around your peers blocks.
suffocate his reach instead. we have the power here.

I must not dunk.
Dunks are the time-killer
Dunks are the little stress that bring on social alienation
I will ignore bad takes
I will allow them to pass, or block them
And when they are off my feed I will read things that matter
And where the takes have gone there will be nothing
Only I will remain

Yep, I'm here to protect my peace. I will not fight random people on the internet.
I know temptation and old habits call us, but remember friends: when an anon rando with no platform has a weird bad take
You can just block them
I know, the optimists amongst us think that surely a person wearing the trappings of reason can be reasoned with
Don't do it
Be free

when you stop reading "believe women" as "women never lie" and see it as "one of the foundational myths of patriarchy is that women can never be trusted" it makes a lot more sense.

Day 1 of Thanksgiving prep: done! I made and froze my rolls (as dough). I also made bread for eating and bread for my stuffing. And I measured out the dry ingredients for the two dishes I’m bringing. Oh, and made pie crust and got it in the fridge.

I have to get used to posting regularly again. I’ve basically only been on Twitter to look at cat pics for well over a year.

kind of funny (not funny) that there's a whole scene in Hidden Figures about how denying people access to bathrooms is a major civil rights issue.

Why is it that the fragrances you try and absolutely despise are always the ones that NEVER FADE? I wore it for five minutes and it got on all my clothes and won’t wash out.

Not only are these not the droids you’re looking for, I have never seen those droids and cannot point you to them.
I'm very disappointed by all the people who don't understand what this means

I was trying to find SOME possible use for chatGPT so I was like "well I need a list of stuff that happened in 1994 for this podcast, maybe I can ask it for some events! Surely that's easy!"

Calling art “content” is like calling your pets “meat.” It’s technically correct, I guess, but it’s real reductive and kinda gross.
