OK look, if you use AI art in your posts I'm just going to block you. I no longer care how great your ideas are or how much I agree with you politically.

I can no longer breathe the air in my province in the summers. It's not worth making climate change worse just to fuel the plagiarism machine.
Strongly held opinion: Meetings that go on for more than two hours need to have an intermission.

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

Seeing Tommy Robinson's name in a news article always takes me a minute, because this is the always the first thing I think of.

(Deleted the original post so I can add a slur warning for those not familiar with this track.)

The hardest part about getting my COVID booster is trying to figure out where in my schedule I can take day off for the inevitable day-after feeling like shit.

Every once in a while somebody brings this book up in conversation and I get PTSD flashbacks every single time.
You know you can always judge a book by its cover. Look at this nice book about bears.

One annoying thing about having elderly an pet is that there are specialty foods available, but not if they have a combo of health conditions.

I couldn't get arthritis food that was ALSO dental food, but I could get dental treats. Now he's on hypoallergenic, so dental & arthritis are off the table.

Saw a post on threads today, "All you women who said you would pick a bear over a man. I want to know which would you pick, a trans woman or a bear."

Hundreds of replies and every single one says "the woman" and she is getting so mad she isn't getting the response she was looking for.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

I just found out my two-doors-down neighbour is a birder and I'm all ~Yessssss, tell me about your special interest, I want to hear about birdsssss~

(The only down side, I know this may open floodgates I currently just do not have time for.)

One of the kids wanted to see my cat, so I fetched him to the door and let her pet him. I could hear her hollering at her parents, "We can't leave yet, she's getting her cat!"

"You're a witch, so you have to have a cat," she told me.

"That's right. The Witches Union is very strict about it."

Trick-or-treaters vanished at the stroke of 8 pm. I imagine many of their parents wanted to rush home and catch the game.

This leaves me with ~way~ too much left-over candy for my own safety.

Congratulations to all my friends who have won Glamour UK's Women of the Year title for 2025.
glamour uk have made trans women their ‘women of the year’.

this really highlights how transphobes have lost the ‘culture war’ and are wholly reliant on bigoted politicians like @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social and wes streeting

they wouldn’t do this if they were worried about it losing them readers:
