Just did the math and even though I make more money I’m effectively no better (slightly worse actually) than what I was making several years ago, due to inflation.

I am watching Prince of Persia and the first thing I noticed is everyone is wearing pants. They look rather modern to me. Actually their whole wardrobe just looks wrong for… well what time was this supposed to be? Around 400-500 BC, the Achaemenid Empire… and what did they wear? Skirts.

$6 away from free shipping WHAT DO YOU MEAN 😭

There was no monopoly piece on my egg McMuffin wrapper

Paul Smith has lost the plot. They’re up to $725 for their signature sweater. Who wants to take bets on how long before they get to $1000. I’m going to bet before the end of 2026. Keep in mind it’s a COTTON sweater. Yes very nice, but still. Yes I’m a shopaholic and want this damn sweater.

First Skylight post

Forgot to post this amazing salad I had. Called Strawbery Fields from Sauce on the Side: it has candied walnuts with mint and sage plus obviously greens, strawberries, and feta with a vinaigrette. As good as it was I need to stop buying lunch out every day so I might try to make it at home

McDonaldland shake was not good. It tasted like raspberry at first but then like cleaning solution a second later. Couldn’t convince myself to take another sip.

I may have given into the hype #labubu #toffee

They may recognize it somehow but I didn’t get any emails from them (or Bloomingdale’s) and I don’t see anything on their website. Macy’s does carry Pride merch from other companies. But then you have Saks Fifth Avenue, who sent out several emails and they have an LGBTQ+ designer section year-round.

I guess Apple didn’t remove this after all?? Maybe it was Google I’m thinking of.

Had a freak out moment this morning when seeing this tree in bloom and realizing spring starts tomorrow

Oh there was another part of the same comment section.

The talking points are fascinating:
Trump is anti-war.
Trump is doing more than he needs to do, because we shouldn’t care anyway.
They should be grateful (and they aren’t grateful or else they would take whatever without question.)

It also seems to be the perfect character limit for talking points, but not enough for talking points to be examined.

I was looking at comments under a video claiming criticism of Trump is coming from pro-war people, the dance around every angle that could be a point of rational criticism…

This is crazy (from Out Magazine)…

2024 selfies. Thanks to @kylechalve.bsky.social for getting me to Yellowstone/Grand Tetons and buying me the Kamala hat.
