little guys incoming!

I tell my cat “I know” when she meows at me but if I’m being honest? I don’t always know

Someone came out of the yarn room

mass grief is wild. you have like, someone who's trying to bargain talking to someone who's depressed, causing frustration. someone who's angry clashing with someone who's in denial, invalidating each other. etc.

it turns out that if you put off buying things you need bc you don't want to spend money it means you just have to buy them later??? and spend that money anyway?? absolutely fricked

still riding the high of seeing a fluffy white kitty wearing a sweater in a window

it is exactly that although I think phrasing it "tries to understand" is clumsy on my part ("understand" can e construed to imply empathy; I have none on this point). it's a version of Gass's representation of the same mindset in "The Tunnel"

is there anything a cat loves more than being just a little bit in the way

I thought my upstairs neighbors bought a new stereo or something but I am beginning to suspect they are an honest to god band. just jamming. all the time.

Me opening the news every fucking morning

that part of Costco is the closest to being in the temple as Jesus started flipping tables that a modern person can be and these folks are scarfing down a footlong chicken hot pocket in their own personal zen bubble

HE KEEPS GETTING INTO SITUATIONS

Very good advice to find after a day of doomscrolling

HE KEEPS GETTING INTO SITUATIONS

my insurance has now refused to cover three different asthma inhalers I'm losing my whole mind

showers take waay longer when you have the macarena stuck in your head

fuck it,, planted some sweet peas

The union representing thousands of janitors said ICE went to multiple downtown San Francisco offices but that building security kept them from entering, KTVU reports. “Union president Olga Miranda said the janitors were relieved that someone spoke up for them.” www.ktvu.com/news/ice-age...

oh ok the asthma inhaler that's been working really well for me is no longer covered by my insurance neat neat cool cool cool cool

we need to start asking tougher questions about the true crime genre. so much of it is contingent on people being killed. that’s illegal. you can’t do it. something is very amiss

Without downloading any new pics where are you mentally?

productivity at work absolutely plummeting since I started listening to mbmbam on the clock bc I have to stop and google their references

a post from two months ago, but relevant again nonetheless

Friends of GDQ, I want you to know that trans & non-binary people will ALWAYS be welcome & supported by GDQ. I am keeping a close eye on what the Federal gov't's next moves will be, and if we need to fight, we will. We will support any efforts to protect your right to bodily autonomy. Full stop.

it's also ok to be rude to people who don't want you to die but just want your life to be worse. the threshold of when it's ok to be rude is pretty low

trans rights are human rights and fuck anyone who disagrees 🏳️‍⚧️

whatever boldly defiantly queer way you're going to live, please wear a mask when you do it so that i might join you.

bad news: spilled curry on my shirt good news: it is an orange tie dye shirt

With David gone we gotta pick up the slack. We all gotta get weirder

One of my favourite small David Lynch moments is when he tried to do one of those ceramic art cows for New York City and submitted this and was rejected.

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017

man

i avoid commenting on celebrity passings due to the parasociality of the thing but David Lynch was an artist’s artist and a reminder to never explain yourself (when you don’t want to). one of the greatest filmmakers to ever do it.

#catcrumb

take it from someone who’s been there before. a piece of writing so beautiful “it changed your entire life” is not responsible for the changes. what changed your life are the actions you took after receiving inspiration. It’s like crediting the paint manufacturer for an entire painting.

i know you swore a blood oath to protect me after i rescued you from the snake cult but i think we should see other people

weasel snuggles are to be cherished

SoCal friends, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. A few things I wish I’d known as we evacuated ahead of a wildfire (that took our home in 2021) 🧵
