I'm spending the holiday weekend at home alone with my dogs (Don't worry! I'm enjoying it!) Took a walk on a beautiful fall trail and am now fighting my way into this Golden Corral. 😂

I would rather 50 people got benefits they didn't need than 1 went without food or shelter.
Hot take maybe but I actually don’t give a shit about benefit fraud.
I give a shit about multimillionaires and billionaires existing and not paying tax on their actual wealth.

I have the warmest, coziest doggo on my lap.
We adopted this anxiety-ridden, formerly feral dog over 6 years ago and this is the longest she's ever sat on my lap.

I feel like the last couple decades of "is representation good or not?" discourse missed more important questions of "how fragile is representation?", "what do we do when multiple industries eliminate it as an intentional move against us?" and "how can we sustain queer artists when shit goes south?"
"According to the report, [...]during the 2024-25 television season, queer characters increased across platforms by 4%, bringing the total to 489. However, the Thursday report found that 41% of those characters will not return." www.thewrap.com/glaad-where-...
Nearly Half of All LGBTQ+ Characters Will Disappear From TV Next Season, GLAAD Study Finds
The 2024-25 TV season recorded 489 queer characters across broadcast, cable and screenings, but cancellations and plot find a deep decline to come

Ever have one of those days that is seemingly no different than any other day, but you say to yourself in the shower, "damn girl, you gotta get your life together."

What the actual fuck, Apple
Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

I hope that pup knows how much he was loved.
When we were house hunting 3.5 years ago, there were lost dog signs up in the neighborhood with a picture of an old, gray-faced mutt. After we moved in, they added a reward to the posters. Every few months, we'd see fresh posters go up. Today I noticed new ones. My heart just aches for this person.

I think I'm enjoying Taskmaster because Greg Davies is very tall and Welsh, which are two things I greatly appreciate in a man but so rarely go together.
