idgaf about these two especially, but WHAT is Timmy T wearing bc I swore it was a frying pan at first scroll. I'm torn between princess hand-mirror, a case for one giant lollipop or a decorative paddle.

This administration is going full Ebenezer Scrooge with its cravenness & greed. I bet most of the secular and Christian populace watches a version of A Christmas Carol every December, but do they take it to heart? "If they would rather die, they had better do it and decrease the surplus population."

bless this ridiculous city. only Portland could decide that the best response to the current administration is to rally everyone to ride around nude to scare away the National Guard/ICE. honestly surprised it didn't happen sooner. #worldnakedbikeride #pdx

Things I love to do: listen to INXS late at night & lament that I'll never see them live bc I was born too late & all my fangirling over Michael Hutchence, the world's sexiest & most vocally gifted frontman ever (I will not argue with you about this firmly-held opinion), is just cast into the void.

This isn't really a #weirdfoodcombo but I just want to tell everyone about Lemon (or Lime) Dipped in Sugar. Enjoy this forbidden snack courtesy of me and likely tooth decay (I rarely eat it and rinse my mouth after; it's a pretty light vice). I've had it since I was 15 bc I crave sour. 🍋

Hey here's a fucked-up thing Instagram is doing! I got an alert saying "someone" was worried about me based on my sharing an Impact post about Ozempic and thinspo; turns out it was just Instagram itself that's "worried" for me & they restricted my account for 2 months. #censorship #instagram #wtf

I'm so tired of applying for jobs after six months of unemployment, yet the grind/slog continues. Today on "how I wish people wanted to hire editors like me for their job descriptions," a nice-to-have skill is the ability to... "Portland, Oregon."

guess who's finally rehearsing with a cover band?? (it's me)
I'm still unemployed & haven't been writing much so it's good to feel validated and to receive approval for one of my talents (memorizing songs to yell into a microphone). Performance this summer? 🎸🎶❤️🎤🥁

Seth Meyers getting Froot Loops hurled at him in the most recent Corrections was a pure delight. #sethmeyers #corrections #cerealbus

I know I live in the vegan utopia of the United States, but I think it's weird that I'm not seeing much about the ongoing H5N1-fueled egg shortage. I'm honestly not seeing much about avian flu; I'm sure I'll see even less with this administration.
"Why is egg no longer available?" is funny, though.

Iiiit's RAISIN!!!! Never would I have predicted that I would call a cat after dried grapes, but cat nicknames make no sense. It's mainly because Americans don't know how to say "Róisín" off the top of their head (roh-SHEEN, if you wondered). #catcatcat

Love to take sky pics. Specifically sunset since I'm rarely awake for sunrise.

Got a secondhand kids' novel (Anastasia On Her Own by Lois Lowry) and found this slip of an Arrow book order from May 1994. A fun piece of ephemera. I loved a book order as a '90s kid.

My roommate is looking for a new church so we searched for some on Google Maps and I had no idea that reading church reviews could be so fun. Professor Costco is big mad. Apparently this pastor is anti-gun and everyone is calling him a Redcoat.
