The fucking gasp I made- how dare you, even if you are right. (Elder millennial/baby Gen X checking in.)

It doesn't surprise me that white women, who have been down this path before, are retired, have a bit of money for bail, and no real worry about getting a criminal record because they're not going for job background checks, are like, "You know what? Let's go protest."

Anecdotally, in Ohio, every time I saw a signature drive for reproductive rights amendment, it was 60's and older white women leading it and the vibe was a very pleasant, "Hi, we did this once before and we'll do it again!"

Bootsy Collins, local hero. Cincinnatians will go to the mat for two people: Buddy LaRosa and Bootsy Collins.

My dad and I play this game where we try to pay but the other gets to it first. Today he cheated by paying for lunch while I was in the bathroom.

As an aside, I followed one official account during the last administration and suddenly, it was reposting a bunch of nonsense from other accounts, so I'm using this to block them all.

I had really hoped to never hear about that waste of atoms ever again.

This is highly weird but ladies, lean into it. Make us all aware of the *very* gory details of your cycles. Let the men know exactly how bad your flow is, tampons or cups or pads, details about symptoms. Too invasive? Of course. So make shit up. Either they'll get grossed out or it will normalize it

This makes us sick. WNBA athletes should be treated with respect.

Men Found Another Disgusting Way to Bet on WNBA Games

Over the summer, men bet on whether someone would throw a dildo onto a WNBA court. Wired has since found they're gambling on something much worse.

Thank you for posting these! I often listen to episodes and forget to look up pics ofvwold sounding stuff later. These aren't at all what I would have thought they looked like!

IT savvy people: if i make a passkey that's a picture of me, but woth a sign that says, "Fuck off!" in front of my face, as long as it's the same sign each time, will that work? Because I already have a password and 2FA- I don't know why I need a passkey on top of that.

Well, I won't be wearing those shoes to work again. How dare I wear my new, pretty shoes to work. I probably shouldn't bother to enjoy things- I just get shit on for it.

JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."

Oh, according to OneDrive, "mirror" actually means it steals all of my files and refuses to put them on my desktop. Very tempted to go get an external hard drive and tell Microsoft where they can put their bullshit.

Susie To Go @susietogo.bsky.social · 5d

I don't care if it's illogical or it goes against safety protocols- i want to download files to my desktop. Not a sub folder on my desktop or a mirror of my desktop on OneDrive- to my actual, honest to god, physical hard drive desktop that is in front of my face. Why do IT people make this so hard?

God, today is wretched already. How dare I return the mop that was apparently a gift to me tgat I'm not going to use and no one else was going to use either.

Anecdotally, in Cincinnati, if police kill a dog, it gets reported on and people seem pretty pissed. Of course, my social media is chock full of animal lovers so that might be coloring the equation.

It's funny how those things happen- my mom's last name is one her grandmother picked at random. She fled her marriage and moved with her kids and lover to a new city, so they all took new names. So...we're not really related to anyone with that last name.

Fun! Thought I'd throw it out there since the last name's distinctive. ☺️

I thought I was going to be out of town for four days, so I didn't buy myself food for this week. It's fine- I have random bits and bobs- but it's going to be a lot of bagels and cereal until Friday.

When @weratedogs.com calls your agency fucking losers, maybe it's time to reevaluate your career choices.
