I hate it when the things that are supposed to fix something - especially pain - actively prevent you from doing other helpful things (like sleep).

Uuuugh. I'm sorry you're dealing with it!

Are you ADHD at all?

Caffeine doesn't interfere with sleep at ALL for me.

Melatonin and chamomile, though (you're allergic, right?), each keep me up all night and give anxiety issues.

Bodies are weird and dumb.

Now I'm sad that I don't have such a portal!

I had no recreational drug use experience at all and had no idea wtf was happening.

A friend that DID knew what was happening, came over, and helped me through it.

I tapered down and haven't touched it since. Scared the living shit out of me!

Sucks, it had been really helpful before that!

Tramadol fucks me UP.

I hate taking it because it raised my core temp so much, so I slipped a couple doses once.

Though I seem to lack any kind of addiction gene and have never had to taper anything, shit got scary. Hallucinations, paranoia, sweats - it felt like something out of "Trainspotting"

I am really annoyed at Doug Ford for doing shit that makes me cheer him on.

I do not want to like that fucker at ALL.

@klingonpopwarrior.com I didn't see you come up in the "found accounts" thing when I left Twitter. Long time no see!

Just saw this from a friend, obviously thought of you!

If every measure that immigrants were required to pass (Health, background check, associations, THE CIVICS TEST) were ALSO required in order to to run for any level of US government?

The world would be a much better place.

I hate that the times we live in means getting news from memes, then having to Google "Big Balls" to get the context.

I have no idea how I managed to go this long without realizing that Hulk Hogan's chosen moniker involved the initials HH.

Literally only noticed when I was too lazy to type it out when discussing the bountiful meme harvest with a friend.

The US coast guard invaded Canadian waters and kidnapped and abused a Quebec man. The US claims that the man was fishing in US waters, which is a lie given that they rammed his boat repeatdly to push him into US waters and nearly drowned him. #cdnpoli

So does the Legend of Zelda announcement mean Son of a Critch is done?

I haven't seen any renewal/cancellation notices!

If it IS done, can someone please give Malcolm McDowell a spinoff?

Pop was one of the best things on TV, IMHO.

If Trump is threatening Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship, I need to know...

How does one get in on this?

Like do you have to actually be famous to get denaturalized, or just really hurt his poor widdle feelings?

"Dear" Tim and Brad,

Well.

That's certainly one way to quell the No Kings birthday protests.

Really concerned for my friends in Minnesota :(

Marie 🇨🇦 @nerdymarie.bsky.social · Jun 10

Sooooo...

Has anyone heard from the couldn't-be-bothered-to-vote-against-him people lately?

Just wondering if they're proud of themselves, given what's happening to Los Angeles.

If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options:

Dear @bsky.app will we ever be able to send images in messages?

How are we supposed to keep our Facebook-exile friends up to date on the drama they're missing in group chats they no longer have access to?

Need to share screen caps!

And just... Someone tell me I'm wrong?

If it came out tomorrow that RFK jr had a mason jar of earlobes or big toes or whatever that he'd collected from his murder victims in his basement, would you be at all shocked?

Marie 🇨🇦 @nerdymarie.bsky.social · May 26

This morning, I saw someone comment that "I really believe if RFK Jr didn't come from a famous family he would be a serial killer."

And all I can think is... Are we 100% sure he isn't?

I mean, beyond the atrocious antivax body count that's on his head.

I bet he has a collection of 'trophies'.

Well, I've been lazy about trying to make Bluesky work for me.

Most of my friends are still pretty much exclusively on Facebook, which makes it hard to cut the cord.

Well, one of them got his account nuked today, because zucc doesn't like his politics. 21 year old account, gone.

So I try again.

Randomly... I really need Mary Walsh to do a series of videos where she "translates" the things Mark Carney says to/about Trump.

@22-minutes.bsky.social please make it so!
