Overheard at family Christmas from an elderly relative about their grandson:

“I don’t care he’s dating a guy. I care that he’s dating an ASSHOLE.”

“If every Christian that gossiped went to hell there wouldn’t be a single Baptist lady in Heaven.”

Got a good chunk of the plot of my Femslash February novel worked out. I just need the climax, where I need to do something clever. I will have to think on it.

Observers at Whipple Federal Building, by the airport, report 12+ vehicles getting ready to move out, with 30+ federal agents preparing.

If you are out and about in the cities, stay alert. If you witness a raid, call the MONARCA hotline:

When I was on my last jury both the judge and prosecutor told us “if somebody walks in soaking wet with a wet umbrella, you are allowed to infer it’s raining” over and over again. Good enough to send an average guy down for murder, not good enough for the President.
What we’re being told is that a guy who is an adjudicated rapist, who was credibly accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who paid hush money to a porn star, who cheated on all his wives, who is mentioned hundreds of times in the Epstein files, couldn’t possibly be a sexual predator.

The whole house is starting to smell like roasting pork. 🤤

But I can't eat it for another five hours. 😭

Okay, so at the request of the lovely @trance.bsky.social , I'm going to tell a story about what happens when a shitty person is "just joking", and then discovers there are consequences.

AKA That Time Kat Started An Antifascist Hallway Riot In The Third Grade.

It is so funny that the YouTube algorithm just spontaneously created Jigsaw
In Mr Beast’s new video, a woman is alone for two weeks on a platform in the sky. and each day, a balloon is released at an inopportune moment for her. And if she fails to shoot the balloon with an arrow, they take a small portion of the platform that is her home

Ten thousand fucking percent.

Like, I get it. I get that you're despairing. Shit is rough. But skeeting "we're so fucked" ten times a day accomplishes nothing, alleviates nothing, and contributes to learned helplessness.

In all seriousness, if you feel that welling up? Log off. You need a break.
Most of all, drop that "we're fucked" mindset. Time to leave that doomerism bullshit behind and focus on doing good.
I want 2026 to be the year where we collectively stop rewarding negativity. Stop bringing others down to bring yourself up. Stop bringing attention to genuinely awful people. Stop ignoring people bringing positive changes to the world. We need more kindness and empathy. I’m dead serious

Flan is made, and the flan god smiled upon me; it came out right at the right time. Arroz con Gandules is simmering on the stove. It'll be done soon.

I'm ready to start the flan and thus be reminded how much an utter pain in the ass flan is to make.

This is reasonable, yes?
