💜 My Stingray 💜

Looking at the #Sydnova ticket options (not that I can go) and there's a big fancy ticket option for meet and greet with Sam Heughan, but not the #CriticalRole cast?! I would've thought they would have had a big fancy ticket option.

I'm watching www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cn7X... and @samanthabeart.bsky.social calling @aabria.bsky.social 'darling' is going to end me. #BaldursGate #DnD5E #DungeonsAndDragons

BEEP BOOP THIS IS NORA'S AUTOMATED STRETCH CHECK. today is Tuesday. everyone do your stretchies. 💪🤖

I think the greatest thing I've learned from so many years of @xanderrific.bsky.social streams is that you should have dip when you have pizza to dunk your crusts in. I mean also just SO many things about gaming and performing and generally being a good person, yeah, but DIP FOR PIZZA

Hello friends! I'm bad at advertizing! So, uh.... check out my lil cryptid pin trio! Mothman! Jackalope! Jersey Devil! WOO!! (so long as the tariff situation is *super volatile* these will probably be the only ones I ever make, so they're VERY LIMITED ooooo) lizardbeth.art/shop

This episode made me gayer, and then @persephiroth.bsky.social came out in cosplay and my brain short-circuited. I don't think I could tell you a single question that was asked.

I worked on election day as a polling official and let me tell you that is one HELL of a thing to do after months of being mostly sedentary job-hunting. I was there from 7am to 10pm, I had to get up at five to get to the polling place, and two days later I'm still aching. Worth it though.

My first playthrough was with Glory, a halfling druid, and I had given zero thought to romancing anyone. Then I went and read an article (I forget where) that basically said that Shadowheart was the most difficult to romance, and I was like OH CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. #BG3 #TavQOTD

Cop Porn. Am.I doing this right?

Earlier this month, former olympian @NovaPeris shared a tweet that called Muslims “satanic worshipping cockroaches that need to be eliminated”. Now she is a part of the Australian media corporations #StandUpToHate campaign who are trying to pretend they care.

Kyle Sandilands is one of the faces of the #StandUpToHate campaign 😳 Kyle's rap sheet: 1.Asked a 14-year-old child about her sexual history. 2.Mocked Asian people 3.Insulted women & mental health patients 4.Used vulgar & aggressive sexual language 5.Fat shaming #auspol

Kyle Sandilands as a face of anti-racism? Kyle fucken Sandilands? Are you SURE, #StandUpToHate?!

Came across a really vile and terrible person on bluesky and people kept arguing with him instead of blocking him. Just block these assholes. Don't let them get your blood pressure up. Spend your energy in more worthwhile directions.

Playing #geoguessr and had to screencap this lovely street in Mexico City.

THE MIDDLEMAN is hands down one of my favorite tv shows ever. If youve never seen it before, tou should watch it. If you have seen it, then 1) kudos to you and your dazzling and rakishly good tastes, and 2) watch it again.

tired: found family wired: whatever the fuck #ProjectGhostlight's coterie is doing

For every autistic person who never writes a poem, there will be one who writes six hundred sonnets just because they can, and also an allistic person who never writes a poem. I love poetry. It does not define a person's worth.

I know people who will absolutely say it's performative to hop on social media and go "hey I love trans people trans people are cool and great," and those people are kinda right. But things being performative doesn't make them wrong. If you attack my friends, I announce my love.
