It is taking every piece of my self control to not include “dickfuck” as an example in my upcoming presentation on the psycholinguistics of compound words

Honestly the only possible way to make the holiday season more unbearable is Malört every day
"Malort advent calendar" is already such an unhinged concept but every little window just having Malort in it really pushes it over the edge into something transcendently funny

Friends, what are your favorite albums? I want whole albums where part of what makes it enjoyable is how the songs hang together. Two of my faves are Ten by Pearl Jam and Beyoncé’s Lemonade.

Sometimes parenthood means sprinkling a little black pepper onto day 3 leftover butter noodles and telling yourself it’s cacio e pepe.

This is so cool! Feeling very 🥰 that these folks felt inspired to transform so many of my stories for your ears!

Good news (for me): I have a fic idea

Bad news (for everyone and also me): it’s in a fandom I ought to have abandoned in 2013 (not that one)

the light that never warms (until it does) (fuck you, thermodynamics) is maybe my favorite in a long run of unhinged titles for this reason

Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now?

Not Completely Straight (following a raging crush on my boss): 22

Oh Shit I’m Actually Super Gay (following first practical demonstration): 26

Gender? Hardly Know ‘Er: In process

I’m 36 now.
Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now?

Bi - always thought it was weird when I realized most people didn’t get crushes on anyone from an entire gender?? So. 6 maybe???

Nonbinary - don’t know? As soon as I learned the words (in high school?) I guess.
Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now?

Came out as bi around age 15 or 16.

Started coming out as nonbinary around 2017-18 when I realized it could apply to me, late 30s. Got top surgery in 2021.

I'm 41.

My most boomer-coded opinion is that Halloween is a day, not a whole dang season, and asking kids to dress up every weekend in October for various events spoils the magic of Halloween night

Dreamed that my advisor wanted to send me to Switzerland to attend the 60th birthday party of our close research collaborator Con O’Neill & then the rest of the dream was figuring out the childcare logistics. That bit was so realistic that I woke up briefly wondering if I had plane tickets

I want 8 seasons on these ghost girlfriends from different decades meeting in the afterlife, falling in love, and solving mysteries together

Wondering why the Old Bae boys were front of mind this morning and then I realized that the light over the park was just the right length & this is the weekend they met (in 2023)
