If you bring your full, non-lidded coffee mug into the bathroom, you are gross. Sorry, those are the rules.

Even with a lid is pretty Ew.

A SPOTIFY PLAYLIST from JF. Over the years a few songs have turned my head. The sound, the sonics, the arrangement, the impact of the ideas involved--these tracks HIT ME harder than songs. Kinda in a timeline, hardly complete-here's some singular songs... open.spotify.com/playlist/75D...

I’ve seriously never seen a more compelling argument for public nudity…

Mike Johnson is bummed because he saw some video of the naked bike ride and had to log it in his "I sinned by watching porn" app on his phone. Now his adult son is disappointed in his because he knows his father looked at a butt cheek.

Mi abuela wanted to be an astronaut, cuando Earth was still viable. I know all the stories about the space race. Now we all live in ships, plodding from one planet to the next. But I'm no astronaut. So I paint the walls black and hang una foto she gave me. A single dot of azul in a beam de luz.

On an interplanetary merchant ship, strictly enforced rules and regulations are how a crew survives with ship intact and food properly rationed. Even so, each crewmember is allowed a few grams of paint and personal items for their bunk. What does your cot look like?

That I did. Heard someone talking about it in the break room, and was idly curious.

I haven’t even heard any of the new songs, just the complaining.

I am not the Taylor Swift target audience. By like, a long shot. I recognize the talent, but it’s not really for me.

However, I’ve heard a lot about the current album’s mixed reviews, and I wonder…

It seems like “breakup” songs are a big thing for her.

Are people just mad she’s happy?

It’s been ENTIRELY too long since they’ve been to Indy. I blame the new ownership of the Vogue.

Want me to pick you up anything from the show?

I’m sure I have no idea what you mean…

Cincinnati’s not bad from Indy!

@kelseysimpsonzines.bsky.social and I are going down there for it. Hopefully planning on being down there enough to hit a few comic shops and maybe Jungle Jim’s. My car…technically has more seats, but is also a Yaris.

Anybody else going next Tuesday?!

Got one yesterday when I was at the shop.

It’s basically full.
