I didn't know that excruciating second-hand embarrassment & deep horror could co-exist until I watched that exchange in the oval office.

Microcosmically, my life is just starting to look pretty fucking delightful after some truly terrible years (👉🌳). So if the macrocosmic world could hold off ending for a little while longer, I'd very much appreciate it.

I'd stop grousing about my bullshit job because I would be outta there. I'd be full of radiance & grace, being able to access alllllll of the therapy I need. Conversely, I'd probably develop a coke habit. I contain multitudes, ok

I got really really hurt by someone I loved and ultimately wanted to continue loving. Learning to navigate through a difficult ugly situation instead of cutting and running has been brutal but extremely rewarding.

Plz. Remind me it's not too late

This post will always haunt me

My usually phenomenal hairdresser has cut my previously extremely long hair a lil too short, and I feel a bit neutered 😩

This was unexpectedly topical, and if we had locked accounts I'd tell you all about it

Yes plz (From the zine "Love Without Emergency" by Clementine Morrigan)

D just gave me the wildest response when I asked what he was having for lunch: "sliced rock melon with Aleppo pepper, sumac, yoghurt and a little honey." How am I supposed to live a life with someone who casually has that for lunch on a Tuesday smdh

Dear manager, 1. I meant every word I said 2. From deranged 3. To devout 4. And I would do it all again 5. As if for the first time

Got my new glasses, got back in the car, pulled down the sun visor so I could check myself out in the mirror and BAM, MASSIVE HUNTSMAN SPIDER. I was very keen to do some seeing but I was not prepared for THAT seeing.

Me @ the bsky development team:

I still believe in Gene Roddenberry's vision for the future.

I just got served an ad for "safe ouch" self-harm toys that hurt you without damaging you and I can't decide whether to be horrified or impressed. What is this world we live in

Everyone deserves to see Hania Rani live while on psychedelics at least once in their lives.

Just outrageous insomnia at the mo. I have had about five hours' sleep in the last two days and feel like a sad husk of a woman.

The shit thing about violently protesting drag story time is how effective it is. I've heard multiple ppl talking about being too scared to take their kids to these events now, and fucking fair. I'd front up to the thugs any day myself, but I wouldn't put my tiny nephew in that situation.

Why would you play Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" just as I'm enjoying a fresh vape - the perfect tune for such an occasion - and then, before the first verse is done, cut in with stock trading tips??? Radio stations around here are mean in the weirdest ways.

Last night I had this very realistic dream that I got out of bed in the middle of the night for some water, and found a door I'd not noticed before. It opened to a huge sweeping staircase descending to a cavernous hall under my house.

Worse ways to be woken up than by a whole bunch of kookaburras right outside the window

4thC poet Su Hui embroidered a poem onto brocade for her husband, who had left her for his concubine The poem is a palindrome that can be read in any direction including DIAGONALLY, & contains thousands of sub-poems within the grid Her husband returned to her Lovers & poets, we gotta up our game

While I fundamentally agree, it does then feel like we need a whole new word for "someone who follows the actual teachings of Christ" as opposed to Christian.

Please note there is an active petition on Parliament’s website to remove Destiny Church’s charitable status. It was started last year and closes Feb 28th – great timing! Go sign. And write to your MP. petitions.parliament.nz/a22e0d59-7da...

When we talk about free speech, we must also consider who's silenced when intolerance is allowed to flourish.

Just inexplicably got served an ad for film-grade life-like remote-controllable Pegasus wings for attaching to an actual horse. If I win lotto, I am going to play such a good prank on the owners of my favourite local horse.

I swear I just heard my ute laugh

Gee I wonder what's worse for little kids - having someone in a cool outfit read them a story, or having to hide while a crowd of angry assholes create a violent scene. Who can say

The bases, according to me: 1st. Sex 2nd. A lil light spanking 3rd. Exchanging numbers ... 7th. Sleeping over ... 24th. Maintaining eye contact during sex 25th. Talking on the phone ... 37th. Exchanging trauma stories ... 128th. Singing in front of each other

I'm so excited to get my new glasses. I am going to do so much seeing.
