There are so, so many things I want to do. Get better at oil painting. My PhD. Paint my miniatures. Read. Knit or do cross stitch with a podcast. Take a professional make up course. Gardening. Improve my dressmaking skills. How do billionnaires end up being such tedious motherfucking nazis?

@ironspike.bsky.social hey, funny thing, there’s a game jam starting next weekend, run by a guy on twitch who gives the kind of advice you’re kind of giving with your Godot posts. Are you taking part? Or perhaps would you like to? (I’m going to try Godot too)

The fascist turn in this country doesn’t purely come from MAGA. It’s in the blue cities that purge the homeless. It’s in TERF politics. It’s in the belief in a “strong border” just with slightly more due process. It’s the disdain for red states full of disenfranchised people.
If your response to hearing that a bunch of people died in a flash flood is anything other than heartbreak and compassion I think you might be the baddies

The ruling class (the donor class, the politician buying class) relies on you cheering for the suicides of people you suspect might have voted wrong. They rely on you thinking the enemy is a bankrupt dairy farmer thinking of eating his gun.

My cat just called for me, then came into the room carrying one of my rolled up socks in its mouth, when it then dropped before me, with eye contact .

personally I think this election news cycle is amazing. someone tried to assassinate one of the candidates and it immediately got eclipsed by "kamala is brat" and "look at this weird couch-fucker"

I managed to go this long without seeing Elon’s Awful Truck and I’m more angry about this streak being broken than I was about finally catching Covid in January.

That thing looks like someone saw a Magic Mouse and was like, let’s make it uglier and a TRUCK

I never imagined I would turn in Dr Farnsworth as I got older, but that’s what’s happening.

I encountered a robot while shopping last week. It was a big goofy thing they’d attached massive googlie eyes to, I’m guessing to make it seem less threatening.

It was not.

And in fact I felt an unusual urge to do extreme violence to it that I thankfully didn’t succumb to.

I had 2 of 2 cats in my mom’s apartment interacting with me when the quake started. I swear to god they were looking at me, reading my reaction to know whether to freak the fuck out or not.

Welp, now I know what a medium earthquake feels like. Baby’s first earthquake. Wonder if my apartment in Brooklyn is still standing.

Felt the Earthquake all the way out in Fairfield county, CT 😨

Uhhhhh hi.

Twitter’s last few years before its death and current zombie state kinda broke me of my social posting habits. It just wasn’t fun anymore.

Maybe it’ll come back, I dunno.
