Movie you've watched more than 6 times, GIFs only

How quickly one can go from "just the right amount of chocolate-covered cranberries" to "oops, too many" *burp*

I was worried I would be playing yarn chicken for a moment, but I prevailed

The Wrath of Becky proved superior to the first film and is exactly what I needed tonight!

We aren't even *trying* any more, are we?

Many people stan billionaires because they think you must be contributing or producing *something* to have that much money. Maybe, long ago, some version of that myth had some truth. These days, a billionaire's valuation is utterly disconnected from material reality. They are worthless.

This Is Love rereleased its 2021 episode “On the Way to Dinner,” which I first listened to this summer when binging the podcast during my walks, last week. It is one of the most beautiful stories I have heard.

Every time I watch makeup tutorials I'm always, "How do they have so much room on their face? How are they being so precise? Do I just lack fine motor control?" 😅 (Real talk tho, it doesn't help that without my glasses on I have to lean in *real close* to the mirror to see what I'm doing, lol.)

Not my most unified and coherent blog post, but I wanted to share some thoughts while it is still #AroWeek that have been rattling around my brain about social media, fanfic, romantasy, and the current language of sexual freedom therein tachyondecay.net/blog/2025/02...

Is there a better way to spend a Saturday night than streaming DEATHLOOP and afterwards watching Kirk and Spock fight to the death? I think not.

Obsessed with time loops or murder … not sure which. Either way, it's DEATHLOOP! twitch.tv/tachyondecay

I have just backed this!! Here is my review of the first Common Bonds anthology if you want to know why I think this deserves your support. kara.reviews/common-bonds/ 🌈📚 💙

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

This is so fascinating (as Paul's threads always are), for I feel like I would say kids have too *little* freedom nowadays! They seem so *scheduled* versus my free-range youth roaming the neighbourhood.

It's weird how everyone in the world knows a Nazi salute when we see it, with the notable exception of journalists and their editors.

I keep holding off on posting about this because I haven't donated yet (every single day I sit down to catch up on budgeting but have yet to find time), but this is important!! Common Bonds was a lovely anthology, and we deserve a sequel. Support arospec writers and representation!

Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

Can we please bring back RSS and feed readers while we are at it

Is that account that posts Wikipedia titles in the cadence of TMNT on Bluesky yet?

Saw someone claim season 1 of DS9 “objectively sucks” and like … first of all, how dare? “Duet”?? Way to watch a show wrong. But also, it’s OK to say, “I don’t care for it.”

Just finished half an hour fixing a dropped stitch I hadn't noticed because of where it was in the pattern; I had just swallowed it up and it took five rounds before things weren't lining up 😅

Just finished S2E3 of XO, Kitty, and people might think I avoid romance because I'm aromantic but the truth is I avoid it because I'm conflict-averse and hate the drama of your crush kissing you while she's dating someone else and of course someone walks in at that very moment. 🙈 I can't even

Lol, just discovered I forgot to turn on the weekday program on my thermostat after the end of the winter break. So my poor furnace has been heating an empty house during the weekday for a month. Oops. Sorry, climate.

Cancel culture must be stopped! It’s *so* strong that Adichie’s publicist could *only* get her a publicity-as-interview article in The Guardian 😱 The horror. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/f...

I'm reading The River Has Roots, and it's got me thinking just how magical books are, the way they can transport our minds into a new environment. So totally different from film or television. Something truly special, this collaboration of imagination between writer and reader.
