Tumblr post from pavlovsbimbo that says "At a kink party recently, and someone said 'aww are you pretending to be a person?'. She ran her fingers through my hair and said 'that must be so tiring, you don't need to pretend anymore.'"

They're so stupid.
It would be funnier if they weren't currently in charge.
Can't wait for the pendulum to swing back our way.

Sometimes, I even still dial the numbers just to make sure they are still disconnected and seeing if my ghosts answer.

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

I think about calling my dad's number, but I'm sure it's been reassigned by now.
I mean, he's been dead for almost 20 years lol

A big hearty 'fuck you' to all the white people who said I was being paranoid that this shit was coming down the pike.
Must be nice sitting there in your privilege.
Meanwhile, I have to find my mother's fucking papers because she has dementia and doesn't know where they are.

NEWS: ICE gave a Rogers Park man a $130 ticket for not having his papers on him. They rounded him up last week and eventually let him go, but not without a fine that some critics say is un-American. Trump admin enforcing little-used law

It's going to be a real shit day in my neighborhood, so I am grateful for the good laugh.

Time Magazine wrote a relatively good story about me, but the picture may be the Worst of All Time. They "disappeared" my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. Really weird! I never liked taking pictures from underneath angles, but this is a super bad picture, and deserves to be called out. What are they doing, and why?

Gabi 雪 @gabimccauley.bsky.social · 1h

These people obviously don't read.
It's just amazing.

This is great news. We've hired the classicist Spencer Klavan to teach at New College of Florida. Goodbye gender studies; hello, Greek literature.

Truly excited to be teaching an online survey course in Greek literature this fall semester @NewCollegeofFL. Even more excited that it's open to the public. Please join in here! We'll be reading Homer, Aeschylus, Aristophanes, and lots more.

The rikishi are taking-in the town and doing what we all do when in London.
Seeing the sights, admiring the parks, shopping on High Street, taking tea at Fortnum's, using the olde phonebox, eating Chinese, and having a terrific time.

Chris Christie: “Thie is no longer, the Department of Justice, is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now is a capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so. That’s what it is.”

Fucking hate entitled white people who think minorities owe then a goddamn thing.

I mean, where the giant fuck does this person get off?

Do people even hear themselves?

What an absolute racist trash thing to say.

I really dislike people, Justin.

Yeah, I'm pondering it. I mean, honestly lol

I hate when something blows my whole whole mood for three days.

Maybe if I stress about it now, it won't be so bad.

It will be okay once it's over. Just gotta get through it.

You gotta give ‘em hop.

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.
