btw if we resolve to keep our individual joke post:the-situation-is-dire post ratio at 3:1 min (pref 5:1 or better) we could save this site from becoming twitter. “Becoming twitter” is a fate worse than death so maybe consider this concept. In order to lead my example I will next post about butts

Signing Claude Giroux as a mentor for Stützle was the best thing the Sens ever did. Not for anything hockey related but Giroux has taught that boy to be so annoying and I love him for it

I've spent a lot of time looking at this poster of Nick Cave and his shirt about how he hates every cop. I decided to make my own version about how much I hate CEOs. The imagery was too good to pass up, even though drawing bicycles is such a pain.

they finally showed up only like... 28hr and two wfh days after they initially said they would, and i guess my unit is not in fact the problem so that's good, but also apparently The Hot Wall in my apartment is not supposed to be hot? so that's an exciting discovery that i don't know the meaning of.
just told an hvac contractor(?) on the phone, with some degree of exasperation, "i can be home tomorrow, but i can't be home right now because i'm not home," and my coworker laughed at me. laughed!!! cruelty. no one appreciates me. my life is an unending struggle.

This interview with Nikki Giovanni from earlier this year should be required reading. oxfordamerican.org/web-only/nik...
![I think the transgender kids are the bravest kids right now that we see; they're as brave as my generation was in breaking down segregation. They're breaking down-I don't have the word for it right now-but it's gender prejudice, and [the idea that] somebody has decided that they can tell you who you are, what your name should be, and how you should look.
And those youngsters are saying, "No, I can decide who I am, what my name should be." Everybody's mad at me like, You should be a girl because we've decided you're a girl. And they say, "Well, who the hell are you?" I can decide that I'm a boy. And if it makes me happy, what does it mean to you? And I can decide that my name is John. And if you don't like that my name is Geraldine, why can't you name yourself? And if the people who know you and love you-or have to talk to you, maybe they don't even love you but they have to talk to you -you can tell them, “This is my name, and I would like to be referred to in that way."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bb6m3nt3ohlter5c35zjlt6z/bafkreibs7rspksh3k7ekvnnmxzeenwwuvr4ab6fs4usuckmu2zpdzq3hcq@jpeg)

This. No matter how much of a fan you are of those stories, there is no justification at all for contributing to the income and cultural relevance of someone so committed to using that income and relevance to advance bigotry.
Do whatever you want, but I'm insta blocking if I see anyone talking about watching the new Harry Potter shit

Apropos of nothing at all, trademarks have to be actively used otherwise they become “abandoned” after ~3 years and become fair use for anyone else
We call them “posts”
Yay! Also jay, what do we call posts here? Put an end to "skeets" 😂
