It happened to me and one day it'll happen to you!
I'm a 42yo Australian on bsky, which means there's no point DMing me because I'm now locked out unless I prove I'm over 16 to a website populated entirely by elder millennials

I wanted to be a writer, so I went to an information session about doing a Masters of Creative Writing at my uni. There was a session on a Masters of Publishing that night as well, so I went to that and realised it was a potentially more stable career path!
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

If you think "everyone's a little bit Autistic", maybe ask yourself why you keep hanging out with Autistic people?

Girl dinner, when it's been awhile
I'm plating up in style tonight
Oh ease maker
You fast breaker
Whatever you're serving, I'll eat with delight

Two cheeses, olives & a pear
There's not a lot to spare, to eat
We're after the same carton's end
Dishing up at 10
My charcuterie friend
Girl dinner & me

Saw a tweet referring to MTG and immediately thought “Megan Thee Galleon” which is I guess a pirate themed Megan Thee Stallion drag act

If you live in a major city, you may have noticed more people wearing bandanas around their neck, as the accessory has made a small comeback. Typically made from cotton, the bandana — distinct from the ascot — has a long history in working class aesthetics, as it serves a practical function.

The result: a display inspired by our lush springtime Hallowe'en. It was a rushed effort in the end but something to build on next year. It's storming outside, incidentally.

I ❤️ meeting new people & having the fact that both my parents are 💀 come up & then they say "oh wow, that's a lot of trauma!" & then they look at me like how are you still walking around like a normal person?

Cause yeah, that's a lot of trauma! How am I still walking around like a normal person??

I hope planner organisers know that every time I look at a week-to-an-opening layout and you've given Saturday and Sunday half the space as the other days, I think "gross" and walk away.

What kind of hustle-and-grind productivity ghouls are you?
