Oh hai! Quick re-intro and things you can expect from me:

- Tech and tech-adjacent commentary
- Games and film appreciation
- Extreme extroversion
- Chewing on the status quo
- Pun-offs with anyone willing

I don't take myself seriously (try, trolls) and I believe in better. ♥️

Welcome!

I like how each evening of this past week features me swapping the nanny's daytime, background-noise, Netflix choice of "How I Met Your Mother" back to my series, Monster: The Ed Gein Story 😆

I'm charmed by her choice but also giggling at the repeated moments when she has to switch off 😆

Whewww while the institutions scrub the associations, Google is all WE REMEMBER.

First two links are already cleared. 🙃

The search result for Anne Kaykaty, one of the Young Republicans texting in the leaked group chat, with her LinkedIn link, School Counseling at Xaverian link, and the politico leak link as the top three results, even though the first two have been scrubbed.

Not at all to make light of this, but we lovingly referred to all of this stuff as "warehouse debris" for such reasons (thinking back to my powerlifting days) 🫠

"Fun" confirmation. I miss the convenience (and taste! I made great shakes) but try my damnedest to find more natural alternatives.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

"Fawn" pulled up all my baby pictures so that was a nice dig haha but wasn't far off from there. Also it was '22 not '21 but whatever.

omg THANK YOU I love a solid recommendation!! I'll definitely check it out. My soul is hooked on getting to Tier 3 in Megabonk but I am on the cusp of that so I can move the F on.

We continue to align. My child says rude things about deer because of how often I sound off when we're invaded by 'em (they eat our damn landscaping) but the bebe ones win me over hahaha

I'll dig up the video cuz I caught it in some random "here's a memory" moment on my phone haha

I mean...

That's always the case. Assholes will always try to ruin something but meeting fascism and autocracy with straight up laughtivism is what I'm here for.

"War torn" descriptors be damned.

Kristen Seversky @kr1573n.bsky.social · 14h

HAHA love that reference cuz know exactly what you mean -- was just revisiting a video of a fawn visiting my window in '21 while i was deep in completionist mode of that one haha

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

This absolutely threw me at a couple points last night. Definitely see it.

That "Pizza huuut" intonation 😆🤌🏻

Kristen Seversky @kr1573n.bsky.social · 1d

On the contrary, Josh Allen doing the Pizza Hut commercial got me giggling even though I still prob won't bother to ever go. 😆

Blocked kick! There's a chance! Plenty of time :)

I mean! I just had to do the bedtime routine so I missed a bunch but only off a TD now 👀

We shall see but yeah that was a jarring intro

Kristen Seversky @kr1573n.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah I'm slowly realizing it's close to a decade old 😅 but yeah it took me a second to realize the video is an older interview, too.

Also laughing that I called it a spoiler when mmmm not exactly 😆 more so the *intensity* was revealed haha

Kristen Seversky @kr1573n.bsky.social · 1d

Jordan Peele's "Get Out." This is a spoiler if you've not seen it, but yeah she plays a solid role.
