Cancelling Prime and deleting Amazon forever was an on par feeling with dropping ecstasy at a bad boy bill rave in 1999.

I sat there trying to think of the German word for salmon while I literally eating lox. My grandmother spoke fluent Yiddish. I live in Germany. I'm an idiot 💖

Still reckoning with my dad's third act of turning into a FOX Republican from a staunch Democratic union leader and food pantry volunteer but third act problems are offset largely by my mom's late life radicalization. Let it will be.

4 days off Zoloft (not by choice and never again) and I completely understand how there are so many unhinged people everywhere. I am crying angry and sad tears at the same time for no reason and I want to argue with everyone. SSRI's need to go in the water supply.

My third time living in Europe and I can report I now know all the words to every Abba song. The gay world order is real.

Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turginev but it's remade for today and the son is transgender and the father is from North of Boston and knocked up his contractor and his friend is still some trust fund fuck he met at college and his brother is a slacker bartender and I can just keep going

I watched The Reflecting Skin and was so affected that I needed a pallet cleanser so I watched Carryon which somehow gave me more existential dread in that something so god awful was the most watched thing in the world right now.

I'm having a hard time imagining something worse than this.

I can't believe I used to have an "I don't give a fuck attitude". So horrifying. I gave so much of a fuck. When I'm 60, what will I think about myself at 40? It's going to be so bad. But like, I don't even give a fuck 😎

In the last week I've had sex with two guys and it's still not as gay as the scoop of carb smart ice cream I just ate before bed.

I've read 3 things this year that I thought were really compelling (and extremely flawed which their authors are quick to acknowledge).

Oz was a formative gay awakening TV show for me and I'm just realizing how how my early media exposure is to gay sex was primarily rape. Fuck

Every time I see the "we the people" crowd deifying billionaires I can feel the Bastille rebuilding itself, brick by brick. pas bon

The fraction of a second Lisa Gilroy is in the "Interior Chinatown" trailer is why I'm watching it right now (although I do love the entire cast).

Drag name: Carla Mel Candy.

Correctly using estaba vs estuve was the theoretical backflip off the diving board that carried me through my very lovely weekend in Seville.

It took me over 10 years to figure out the band bratmobile was a play on batmobile. That was in 2005 and I've only gotten dumber.

What will come first: the singularity or the last person in America pointing out we have a real life Idiocracy?

Someone asked me, "what would your grandparents think about you not supporting Israel?" Well, They read me books and encouraged me to make art. They were intelligent, empathetic and kind despite or because of unimaginable trauma and tragedy. They are also dead so kind of an asshole question 💁

Gloria by Kendrick Lamar is the Sixth Sense of our time.

There is no difference between the joy I feel popping a probiotic at 41 or felt popping ecstasy at 16. I can't wait to see what 66 holds for me.

The last time I was in Seville I had hair and I'm worried my trip this weekend won't be as good or at least I won't be allowed in the opera house.

I played the 'gimme gimme gimme' Cher and 'hung up' Madonna mashup in front of my dog and he turned into a cat and I'm just praying the GOP doesn't find out 🙏

Ariana Gander: transgender detective (just think about it until you hate me)

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

@pftompkins.bsky.social disabled replies on his Dana Carvey/Al Pacino inquiry before I could bring up the catalog of 80s lesbians I have ready to go at any moment and rarely get to bring up in conversation (is once a day rare? For lesbian trivia, I don't think there is a such thing as not enough).

I'm constantly being outsmarted by doors.

I don't like AI but this is so accurate and it made my boyfriend happy.

Larry Craig solicited sex in a men's room public bathroom at an airport (with who for all he knew was a 10 year old boy) while voting against LGBT rights and there was no call to ban him from a bathroom. It's never been about safety, it's about manufactured fear. 🏳️‍⚧️

I was in rehab watching Intervention and the addict was smoking crack with his dog who was wearing sunglasses and the guy next to me says "damn that dog is wearing sunglasses I never seen anything so crazy in my fucking life!". Which was the moment I committed to quitting drugs. 15 years.

One time I was headed to work at Border Cafe in Cambridge and Annie Liebovitz was taking pictures of people on the street with what I assume were Harvard students and I walked by and someone went to take a picture of me and she said no. It's 100% true and my greatest shame.

Idea: you are getting fucked while riding the guy and he says "oh shit I'm cumming" and then you throw up in his face and say "wow that was a huge load!". But 'the idea' is what I can put on the internet to jeopardize my future.

Celebrity Molemints: Aaron Neville (for when you don't know much, but you know your breath stinks).
