Love waking up to see a BBC breaking story about the UK's continued descent into a transphobic hellscape

As the world burns, let's get one thing straight. A video podcast is just a TV show.

Have yet to see Heated Rivalry, but dreamt I had/was watching it... and just swapped Drew Fuller out for the brunette. Full recast that nice young man who was body positive about stretch marks in this, the age of Ozempic.

Favorite language learning app/resources for #arabic?

Going to Egypt for the first time (cue: joyous sobbing) in April and would love to have a few basics under my belt.

Super annoying that I’ve missed pathetically interval running after taking 4 days off - having spent Literally 90% Of My Life hating exercise.

Incredibly lame and off-brand for me.

Going into 2026 with that usual sparkly ✨all things are possible✨ energy, but thank god I’m still not falling for human design

absolutely classic LatAm to Google the organizer of a luxury travel provider in Guatemala while reading an article in an even more luxurious travel magazine and being hit with this WILD closing paragraph on Wikipedia

Endless airplane taxi-ing is just edging at a larger scale.

Just watched a bougie European couple eat chicken wings with forks and knives in the SJO airport. So I’m feeling pretty normal.

Looking out at the complete and utter dumpster fire that my life suddenly became like - ah, yeah, have to make sure those cigarettes are out before throwing them away…

I was almost gaslit into believing that the song I’ve sort of known my whole life goes 🎶 do a little dance, make a little NOISE, get down tonight 🎶

Neither KC nor the Sunshine Band would have ever forgiven me.

Rainy season in Costa Rica, a short story:

You leave the house, a youngish person with an outfit you put thought into, sensible waterproof shoes, and an umbrella. You feel prepared.

You encounter sideways torrential rain and a river where the gutter should be.

You crawl into your Uber, a wet rat.

Should I, a full adult, have eaten my leftover overnight oats despite leaving it out overnight?

No, especially given the amount if dairy products present.

Did I, a full adult, do so despite the sparkling water mouth-feel of said lactose-heavy leftovers?

Yes.

Every single Diddy sentencing headline I read just leaves me thinking: “more than four years” is a fascinating way to put “less than five.”

#booksky what was your last "wait, what WAS that" half-remembered book/series?

Mine was the Great Alta books by Jane Yolen, which I haven't thought of in approximately 1,000 years and suddenly rose from the depths of my subconscious like a lil long-forgotten submarine.

Does anyone in #catsky know of any ways to donate to research around saddle thrombus in #cats?

My family lost our beautiful girl 11 days ago never having heard of it and were absolutely blindsided.

Currently unemployed, but I’d love to be able to contribute in some small way to treatment/a cure.

Me @ myself: stop being a lil bitch and snap out of it.

Me, on the ground, being a lil bitch: No 🥹

Nothing could have prepared me for searching "hiking" on here - got quite the eyeful. Nice that people are out there enjoying nature, though! 😂
