I love being ace and I love being queer and I love being single and I love having a fucked relationship with gender and I love saying 'i don't care' when people ask my pronouns and I love when all that makes people confused and I love that I don't have to explain any of that to anyone.

Embarrassed to admit that it took me 5 times playing @merriam-webster.com's "Reunion" game before I realized that the little critters had to end the puzzle next to each other. You know... REUNITED.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 22h

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are in bed. Green has just woken up, bleary-eyed, while Blue is still sound asleep. Green narrates.
Green, narrating: You might wake up at 5 on a cold, dark monday to the sound of someone scraping frost off their windshield.

Still sleepy-eyed, Green turns towards sleeping Blue.
Green, continuing to narrate: But you are warm, safe and cozy, in bed with the love of your life.

Closing his eyes again, Green cuddles up to Blue.
Green, narrating: One of life's sweet, fleeting moments of pure and perfect bliss.

Blue wakes up, both foxes are bleary-eyed and half-asleep.
Blue: Can you get off me? I need to go pee.
Green, still narrating: Very fleeting.

Me: What’s a linguist’s favorite cereal?

10y/o: I don’t know.

Me: Do you know what a linguist is?

10y/o: …uh…wait…is it SYNONYM TOAST CRUNCH?!

Me: You’re going to be a great dad.

This is why it's impossible to boycott a company like Amazon in any meaningful way - look at how much they control.

I haven't purchased anything on amazon.com in over year, but I use Canva & Zoom. My mom has like a 7-year streak on Duolingo. It's impossible to avoid everything they have claws in.

Many incarcerated people use their time inside to learn, to study, and to expand their world through books. Others use books simply to survive the cruelty, isolation, and tedium of incarceration. In both cases, books are both a lifeline and a doorway.

Made the mistake of sitting down in the shower after a rugby game.

Easily lost 20 minutes of my life.

i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.

Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social · 3d

i know the desire to fight with these sick freaks is strong but resist the urge and just block. it’s better for your brain.

Spent 4 hours digging holes in my yard today looking for a septic tank that neither my realtor nor the county knows about, but that my plumber (correctly) assures me exists.

I've never been so happy to find sewage.

ASL is great. The guys doing work on my lawn are Deaf and I just had a full convo with them about Ecuador, rugby, and my septic tank without them having to turn off the machinery to hear me
