Y'all. She's referring to it as a wimple now. And that it's Islamophobic if you ask her about her hijab, secularly inspired or not.

Alia's duet "The Baron Inside Me" is truly a groundbreaking number we haven't seen since Confrontation in Jekyll and Hyde.

If anyone needs me, I just realized my stitch length has been set to 1 while I've been sewing the bodice of this dress, and now I need to go lie down.

Forgive me father, for I have Karened (I left a one star review of a local fabric store that is NEVER open during their stated business hours and I'm tired of running over during some of my 15 minute or lunch breaks to find something I ran out of only to find the front door locked)

@yrfatfriend.bsky.social is the first person I've run into who's seen and mentioned Mr. Death who isn't me. I saw it in theaters, because I worked for the theater it played in when I was in high school.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I have multiple friends who are comic writers (And some who are artists but I seem to know more writers... which is weird cause once I got injured and was like "I guess that's it for ballet" my thought was comics...*). So, here's the thing with these franchises

This morning, I saw a video of an American living in Finland who posts recipes. In this video she's saying what she/an American recipe means when you see "brown sugar," where to find it in a Finnish supermarket, what it will be called, and why to use it and not something else.+

Marie Antoinette was actually pretty empathetic. Especially compared to the modern wealthy who would buy a ticket to this shit. I really wish there was a way to get her out of the public conscious as the epitome of rich out of touch ness. There's a ton of better examples.

I was gonna screenshot Mara Wilson's post but I'm lazy and I don't want to seem like I'm talking about her behind her back but ... Is character actor in Hollywood different from musical theater? The character actress is a live and well and playing Jack's mother at 22 in a non equity Into the Woods+

I'm ... Fascinated by the implication that Ryan Murphy has shown the fucking number 13 a gaspillion times, and his flavor of the month has to stand in front of the Last Supper and count the number of people FOLLOWED BY Jessica Lange telling us how many there are.+

One thing I want to say about the Iced Coffee Discorse is that in the ORIGINAL video, one of her main objections was "this makes you look like we're not your priority. We're just one thing on a list of things that you're doing today and it feels like you can't manage your time."+

(it's not exactly fluids but...) Me waiting in the lobby for my interview and my answer to anyone who asks
A sticker of Invader Zim, a cartoon alien with a pigeon on his head. He's bloated so his red suit is straining, and his black arms and legs are now super tiny. Fluid leaks out of his mouth to stain his green skin.

I don't know why I'm bothering with this on my birthday, but when the conversation was "should you bring an iced coffee?" the answer of "probably not" was fine. When a podcaster tells you he won't hire you because you brought an iced coffee? Well, let me don my hijab inspired secular accessory.

One of my things is that I prefer to make my own birthday cake. I like showing off my baking and I also get to pick the flavors. This year, it's a peach cake with brown sugar frosting. I didn't have enough to DECORATE but it's fine!

I cannot take credit for this but I'm here to inform you that "Covid Conscious Lesbian Bar in Western Massachusetts" scans to "Supercalifragalicisticexpialidotious" the same way Amazing Grace and I Did Not Stop for Death scan to the Gilligan's Island theme song.

I'm already kinda of mad at Victoria Clark and Aaron Tveit doing this movie with Laura Osnes but then the script calls an eclair a cruller and I hate it with the fire of 1000 nuns.

An interesting thing with the lesbian bar discussion, that I don't really know how to parse, is that the Stonewall Inn... THE Stonewall Inn THEEE Stonewall Inn The one that we're fighting to preserve Has had anti trans bathroom behavior within the past ten years.+

I get that a of small companies are connected to the owner's cell phone but when did everyone start answering everything with this "...hello?" Like, I'm calling you, your company. If you're paranoid enough that you have to screen calls, do that. Don't answer.

Hey #booksky do any of y'all know if you can download the file of an ebook that you've purchased from the Barnes and Noble Nook store? I don't want to read it on my phone and I don't want to read it on the web so I need to sideload it or return it.

so, upfront this might go into a dicey place and I'm trying to be as nice as possible. There was a tiktok of an American making friends in the Netherlands. At some point "My mother died" "Oh, I'm sorry" came up. I think this is an interesting language discussion!+

If you've followed me, you know I've mentioned a British show called Back in Time for Dinner. They take a family and redo their kitchen, living, and dining room and make them do the social parts of living together as if they were in a particular decade. The series opens up in the 50s.+

Not for nothing, a good way to have handled this from the jump is to define the term "transplant" so it's clear you're not literally talking about everyone who moves somewhere they weren't raised. I'm not a published writer so what do I know?

What cracks me up the most about tRaNsPlAnTs discourse is how often it boils down to you didn't take the regents and didn't go to Conway. Which I did go to Conway and when you were taking the regents I was partying at the Cock before it moved. Maybe get over high school.

I'm not saying this to flounce and I'm not entirely sure what I will do but ... Jesus fuck this website is so goddamned toxic. Are we sure we're better than the Nazi CSAM bar?

The other thing that's annoyingly hilarious on TikTok, the worst social media app outside of all the other ones, is people who aren't NYCers acting like Mamdani is gonna break down their door if they take more then 10 minutes in the bathroom. And this is on the vague left

I really dislike the idea that having questions or concerns about changes being made to to adaptations of other works is somehow fascist, slave mentality, or rabid fan behavior.

This book and series are really awesome and if you want something Victorian-esque haunting to start off your fall season, you should get it!!!! (I feel like there's a Hadestown vague crossover here but I can't fully reference it)

I'd like to add in TikTok live streaming into this mix. Not because I think it's influential but because it seems to be a further symptom of the "we have to debate, but not like formalized debate rules" problem. In the past few years, I've been gaming that requires grinding or farming.+
