I'm looking for more decorative swimsuits rather than my strictly functional ones... why is it that all the cool and sexy stores that stock plus sizes are going out of business, and all the boring ones only have Disney themed suits for sale?

In 2020 I made a Twitter with my real name in an attempt to SEO myself out of a sudden new ambiguity with another American who had almost my identical full name. This started a chain reaction that culminated in a mutual sending me five kilos of Tunnocks caramel wafers to my Airbnb in Paris.

ye, that's why i alluded to the marx quote
spirituality isn't evil in and of itself, it can be a source of comfort and courage, of hope in the face of utter hopelessness! but it's also dangerous and opens you up for opportunists and cult leaders

Sometimes you just need to stand in a cold valley for a while. The Cascades always deliver when you need to disappear into the clouds.

The project is called The Contested File. It’s part archive, part reckoning.

Don’t you just hate it when you forget to wear your good balaclava and so you get instant brain freeze while walking for groceries and you didn’t even get to eat ice-cream to cause it?
