This might be an American thing, but she seems like a miserable sack of shit

wow everything is so polarised rn. i got nazis on the one hand and decent human beings on the other. as a dedicated centrist i guess im gonna have to be a bland generic asshole to balance things out.

Had to say goodbye to my Kali-girl today. I miss her bunnyface already.

Today is going to hurt.

I've been reading "Holly" by @stephenking.bsky.social, and this morning I realised that I've been picturing Rodney Harris as RFK Jr the whole time.

Some say it is best to live without regrets, but sometimes regrets are necessary to uncover honor within yourself. We learn kindness from the example of others, but also from reflecting on times when we were unkind, regretting those moments, and vowing to do better.

The toast wasn't burnt. It was just blessed by Saint Trogdor.

If I had a nickel for every time a supernatural crime solving duo travelled to Minnesota to investigate a supernatural monster killing, only to find out it's just a regular-ass human serial killer, I'd have 2 nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

One of the hardest parts of planning to euthanize my chinchilla is knowing that there are so many people I'd rather euthanize first. She doesn't deserve this, but I could fill a whole Death Note notebook with humans who do.

Omg the histrionics that all Meta properties go into when you get a new phone is absurd

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Scotland trolling Trump makes me proud www.buzzfeed.com/jamieross/ye...

Plus, some of these folks are just too damn old to be still doing this.

I have strong curmudgeon genes on both sides of my family, and AI "art" activates every single one of them. Damn kids today too lazy to learn photoshop. You don't need an artificial brain if you actually have a real one.

You know, maybe Donald Trump is a Christian after all. He loves a lot of the stuff that churches love, like misogyny, sexual assault and tax avoidance.

I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery

It's stupid and unfair and evil that my chinchilla is going to die from a fucking toothache. I'm sick of this dogshit century. Everything sucks here.

Elon Musk has been attacking USAID — because USAID has been investigating Musk Why? Because USAID paid for the Starlink units Musk claimed to give Ukraine in 2022 (!!!) Some ended up with Russia — so USAID opened an inquiry Meanwhile Musk started speaking to Putin in late 2022

My chinchilla is going to need another tooth surgery this week. Until we get her in we're supposed to be giving her critical care because she's having trouble eating. She's unfortunately having no problem stubbornly refusing our attempts to syringe feed her.

Great point.

Repost with your apocalypse skill: All of the fiber arts. I can spin fiber into wool. I can knit, crochet, weave, sew. Many of these skills can translate into rope-making. When all of your Shein polyester clothes disintegrate off of your body, I can make real fabric.

Has anyone killed either of them yet? No? Back to hiding in Stardew Valley.

Hank Green talking about how Trump's unconstitutional acts are, again, the mark of a President lacking the character and the political strength to actually govern within the bounds of the law. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI14...

Just gotta say that overall, it is not a great time to be a disabled immigrant. Every government wants me dead.

I wish there was a taco place in my town. Not the pretentious Mexican bistros up in Edinburgh that make you pay for chips and salsa. One of those places where you can get a huge box of cheap tacos and then eat tacos until you hate yourself and want to die.

Here's a picture of the scarf I've been working on. I spun the yarn a few weeks ago from a weird bag of tiny blobs of wool.

"what else can we do to fight this???" the reason no one has answered your question is that the answers violate the terms of service. go read the TOS and that should help you figure it out!

Seems like no one is even trying to impress Jodie Foster anymore. Sad, really.

My chinchillas are back on speaking terms, but Kali is losing weight and refusing treats again. 😞

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad. There’s not.

I think America sucks and I want nothing more to do with that country. Can either of the Shitlers in charge (orange Shitler or apartheid Shitler) please remove my US citizenship? I do not want it anymore.

stop 👏 putting 👏 ai 👏 slop 👏 on 👏 my 👏 feed!!!!!!

I'm "Please get out of this store. We don't sell your size."
