Big butter and egg woman. Burnt out. Neurofunky. Annoyingly political or annoyingly light-hearted. Everyone gets full human rights without exception or GTFO. Weenie was my sweet jerkface tabby.

Everyone’s talking about Milpay, but reminder that USDA is currently using excess 25 funds to pay for WIC and School Lunch. They say they have like maybe a month of that left.

Red States are going to lose their fucking minds if they can’t draw those soon.

The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and each head said "well, actually...".

i'm really sick and i barely have the energy to get up, so managing this fundraiser/reposting, etc is very difficult for me at the moment.

please, if you can, make an effort to share or repost whenever you can.

hopefully it'll reach more people & hopefully i can raise the money to get treatment ❤️

Tricia Squire, 19, knows that her sensitivity to her environment and unique perspective on the world may seem like autistic traits, but they are actually proof that she represents the next stage of human evolution.

Highly sensitive indigo child just glad she’s nothing like those autistics

There's a house south of Tacoma that backs up to a lake. It's an enormous Brutalist masterpiece with many rounded lines, and the great room is big enough that you'd have to special order the furniture (it had two grand pianos when I saw it last). Anyway that's my second home in this scenario.

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

THREAD. When my parents' cat Bridget went missing, my dad, to try to ease his worry, painted her on a variety of historical adventures. These soon multiplied. Significantly.

After much nagging, he has had some postcards printed of this brilliant series:

It's why I push back when people say they're not cops. That is absolutely cop behavior.

I have long believed that we should be WAY more vocal about how police and ICE constantly murder dogs, and I think this is great messaging actually.

The reality is that you can mobilize a whole lot of usually tuned-out Americans around a “someone is being mean to hecking doggos” cause.

Ooh same! Internet Of Things is another line I won't cross. (I have a friend who lost his sight and "smart home" devices have been extremely helpful to him so he can live alone, but I will change my mind about that for me if I need to and not a second before)

Judgement Night has one of the widest soundtrack-to-movie quality gaps I've ever encountered. (Bad movie, great soundtrack)

The early 90s were the high point of ‘suburban terror of cities’ movies. Dennis Leary as a gang lord is completely realistic.
