These posters for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth are the greatest thing ever? #art

My second playthrough of #ClairObscurExpedition33 was even better than the first. (And I didn’t cry at this ending. 🥹)
I just finished playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and I am not ok. 😭😭😭 #ClairObscurExpedition33 #ClairObscur #Expedition33

A felon in the White House is leading a team of white nationalists to demolish anything good about this country, as the ignorant cheer on their own demise.

Red, white, and boo, America. Boo. 🇺🇸👎🇺🇸👎🇺🇸👎

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

During their concert at Carolina Theatre: @aimeemann.bsky.social to Jonathan Coulton: “My audience is all single and depressed.” Ahhh, she knows me so well. 😍

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

The Morrisville, North Carolina, #NoKings protest was an affirming experience. #libertyandjusticeforall #ousttrump 🇺🇸🚫🤴

I hadn’t even heard of the movie #FreakyTales until I was looking for a movie to see today. It was a lot of fun and a breath of fresh air (especially if you enjoy watching nazis and racist assholes getting obliterated).

2/ This week you will read many confused economists and political pundits who won’t understand how the tariffs make economic sense.

That’s because they don’t. They aren’t designed as economic policy. The tariffs are simply a new, super dangerous political tool.

#Birds ARE #dinosaurs! 🤯 The older I get, the more fascinated I am by them. I used to think “bird people” were weird. I still do. But maybe I am one now??

If Dems were unwilling to fight over cabinet nominees and unwilling to fight over the budget/shutdown, it’s safe to assume they’re not going to fight over anything.

One of the highlights from my recent trip to Sarasota, Florida, was visiting Save Our Seabirds, a bird rescue that’s free to the public.

It, Chapter Two: The villainous clown returns, and this time he’s a felon! 🥳

Americans put this villain back in the office. We failed the test, y’all.

December 10, 2024, is a momentous day. I’m finally free from the bonds that #Wordle has held on me since I started playing. Blasting this to all my socials. #mychainsaregone

Today is my cat’s FIRST birthday. I didn’t realize until this morning that it’s also the anniversary of my previous cat’s passing. Nadia, I apologize for the childhood trauma I’m going to impart on you because of the depression I express over the death of your older sister, Effie, on your birthday.

To start the new year, I am happy to announce that I’ve freed myself of brain tadpoles by completing a playthrough of Baldur’s Gate 3. #BG3 is a great game—that took over my life for 3+ months (190 hours). Here’s to 2024 and finding new games in which to lose myself.
