I’m working on a new project, but I like the pieces of the final idea so much that I had to take pictures of some of them

I’m reminded again that people born since 1991 aren’t only disinterested in Cold War history, they don’t like people who were alive during it. Being an 80s kid who woke up crying from nightmares about my family getting nuclear bombed, that bums me out

A lyric from my favorite Talking Heads song just came to mind

And on the first day, we had everything we could stand
Oh-oh and then we let it fall
And on the second day, there was nothing else left at all
Oh-oh, what a day that was

I’m about to become full-on grammar police. This has been boiling up in me for a long time. I don’t understand every third post, tweet, or whatever they are called now. It’s as if sentence structure has been totally abandoned in online communication since the 1990s.

Maybe there will be more saying “this is wrong” this time. It felt pretty lonely last time. Maybe

I have a feeling 2026 is going to be the end of Twitter or X or whatever it’s called now. Some of us have been aware for years that it’s never going to be what people think it is and the people sinking tons of resources into keeping it going are slowly realizing that reality

I split with a guy in like 1998 and I met the gf who he dated after me and she was goth as heck. We got along great even tho I was a boho hippie 70s chick. When they broke up she and I got drunk and hooked up with 2 random guys we met at a hipster bar who had pretty much the same experience

I just read 2 entirely opposite analyses of the new controversy in Minnesota and I came to a conclusion: politics, particularly as practiced by both Ds and Rs, is so incredibly dumb and an almost unbelievable waste of time. In fact, I apologize to you if you read this
