AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

Weird they're showing Swan Lake on Fox right now

O Lord, they fight! I will go call the watch.

Best private investigator team ever...

This recounting of a staging of Hamlet at the Mark Tapper in LA was the most AMAZING read www.tumblr.com/queenklu/785... Shakespeare fans, theater fans, please don't miss joining me on this journey.

Cuomo using ChatGPT to write his housing platform? Yeah—that was a Hell Gate scoop: hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo...

What are your current Pump Up songs? Looking for some extra energy this morning on my commute. currently listening to The Giver.

I'm sorry, how did it get to be 2:22am? Yikes yikes yikes.

Apparently I've been on tumblr for 18 years? That's scary. I think it was mostly a name grab at first.

Doing tech support for an 80 year old who 1) hates tech 2) hates that they need support and 3) is of course a family member. Lord have mercy.

PSA: Shout! Studios has uploaded the feature-length documentary about #StarTrek: Deep Space Nine, What We Left Behind, to YouTube. Hurrah! youtu.be/3u3WwFMgy5A?...

After two weeks in 90 F Texas I am now attending a 60 F outdoor track meet. 🥶 At least it's not raining.

This is so rad

my most Gen X coded belief is that cities and the culture at large suffer profoundly for the near-complete death of alt-weeklies

On day 14 ish of a work trip (the one that has been happening then canceled then back on, etc.) The people are pretty great but we got bad news today. Some wrap-up still needed, expect to fly home on Sunday.

In 2014, Tisha Turk's Article on fan works and gifting appeared in #TWC15! Turk argued that "fandom's gift economy should be understood as involving a wide variety of gifts, a complex system of reciprocation, and the use of gifts as a sign of their reception." Read it here:

at first you think "ah the dog is passively having fun" and then you realize the dog knows how to steer the skateboard and THEN you learn the dog knows how to PROPEL the skateboard

On May 18, 1980, Richard Lasher got up early to get some photos at Spirit Lake. Instead, he was forced to stop because of the massive, explosive Mount St. Helens eruption and captured this iconic photo with his own red Ford Pinto on the road. 🧪⚒️ #OTD www.hemmings.com/stories/mt-s...

I miss the days of "don't be evil."

slow burn, enemies to lovers, wlw

Saw Goddess last night. It was good and Amber Iman was amazing. First time seeing a show at the Public, A+ experience.

i’ve been thinking about fandom, consent, and what happens when creative work gets taken out of context. an article linking to fic set off a chain reaction—and it brought up a wild memory i’d buried. also: great fanvids, orbital wonder, and the grateful dead. newsletter.sachajudd.com/archive/cont...

I know this is not everyone's cuppa, but the astrology is really weird right now. In general I like to remind myself that the moon changes sign every 3 days, and so might my emotions. But the current transit of Pluto opposition Mars is no joke, among others. All leading to something good but first 🌀

Good luck Canada 🇨🇦
