I don't really care if the future is short videos. I like words. Words have gotten me this far and I'm gonna stick with 'em for the duration

Accidentally turned on sports radio in the car. It was funny hearing them declare that the Packers season is over.

My man, it is August. Calm down.

The em dash supposedly being a “tell” for AI generated text does sort of give away the game on the enormous amount of work stolen from journalists and news organizations that these things were trained on
For my first @salonnewsroom.bsky.social piece, I wrote about how freaks for the em dash (me, and possibly you) will not stand by and cede our precious punctuation to AI www.salon.com/2025/06/11/a...
AI can’t have my em dash
Gen Z and AI have pulled a divisive punctuation mark into the spotlight.

Happy Pride Month, y'all!!

:waves support flag: This cishet mom wants you to know that she's proud of ALL of you.

I would also like to remind you to wear your sunscreen & take cold water to the parades. Do you have a hat? You should wear that. And sensible shoes.

Nicked from a 2020 Tumblr post by radicalgraff, but more true than ever. Hang in there, lovelies. We're going to keep fighting for a better world.

the fundamental disconnect between the manosphere and reality is that they are incapable of understanding that this is - according to every woman I’ve ever met - the sexiest thing a man has ever done
eight years ago today we all watched the glory of zendaya falling madly in love with tom holland and the internet was never the same

My job doesn't have to be my passion. I can find that in other places as long as I'm financially comfortable.

Merry Christmas!

Hunting for my car keys so I can pick up the boy child from school. Gave up and grabbed my spare set.

The other set was sitting in the center console of the car the whole time.

I said a website had a Geocities aesthetic. Both co-workers in the room responded: “what’s Geocities?” Every day I find new ways to feel very old.

Shouts out to my husband who is sleeping through the neighborhood game of fireworks or cannon fire.
