You always think the characters in your language textbook have just the most ridiculous names that nobody would ever use in real life

Also we had to leave the next morning at like fuckin 5 am because our other friend (then a newlywed) had set her BC pill time to *first thing in the morning* and then not bothered to bring any pills along with her on what was meant to be an overnight trip
Thankfully we got there eventually but good god what a damn waste of time and energy.
(Also fuck graduating friend, who was a homophobic fundie army vet and whose mom decorated their house with WAY too many crosses)

Ok storytime
So. It's around 2010. Smartphones are barely on the radar and standalone GPS units are fantastically expensive so as broke recent college grads we have neither.
And we are taking a trip to Chicago to celebrate our friend's recent graduation.

Oh my ex once had an experience like this with Google maps (though to be clear it was 99% his own fault)

I always remember that old email joke that was like 'can mapquest please start at step 5? I already know how to get out of my own damn neighborhood'
welcome to bluesky. if the word "mapquest" means anything to you and/or you used it as a verb, you're in the right place

Now happening on the other place:
Some blue check bro accusing a woman of fabricating an incident in which her then-boyfriend deliberately tried to trigger her food allergy because she didn't specify (in the post) what it was she was allergic to

"Nice mayoralty you got there. Sure would be a shame if anything were to happen to it."
i try not to be hyperbolic but this NY daily news editorial board piece saying mayor-elect mamdani better support israel OR ELSE is one of the most appalling things i’ve ever read

I really hope this guy is allowed to actually do the shit, and not just constantly stonewalled so the other side can turn around and be like 'see? useless POS'

People always say 'be more active' and like there's a part of me that wants to but I don't really see how to make it happen at this point
Like to start with I've got asthma and it's just so fucking hard to breathe most of the time (yes I have medication no it's not enough and will never be enough)

No one will remember this but there's an old Golden Girls joke where they're all out shopping for the first time and Blanche says "We need a Globe and a Tattler and a Midnight Star and an Enquirer and I guess maybe one serious newsmagazine so we know what's going on in the world - one People"
The NY Times and WaPo may be lost causes but holy shite look at PEOPLE out here absolutely killing it with 100% unvarnished truths 🌟

One of my more petty amusements is to point out to stuck-up Tolkien purist fanboys that there are changes you HAVE to make in an adaptation because some things simply do not work on screen.
They *always* hate this.

I've literally listened to The Unfinished Spelling Errors of Bolkien three times through today because it's the only thing I already had downloaded on my tablet
And I could already recite 90% of this in my sleep so I think it's just fading more and more into background noise

My uncle Todd is a genius nuclear submarine engineer who has always been able to tell you what day of the week any any date, past or future, is. He didn't know he was autistic until after his kid was diagnosed
