Just saw this described as a “government backed snuff film” and…. Yeah… the current regime continues I take cues from the Handmaids Tale and other dystopian media and history. Can we just…. Fucking not?

“cops should arrest ICE” is a liberal fantasy. “abolish ICE” is not.

The Trump administration has removed crucial reporting requirements, making it easier for ICE to try to escape accountability when people die shortly after being released from their custody. No one should die because of ICE's dangerous detention conditions.

Deaths in ICE Detention More Than Doubles Under Trump
Death rate could be higher if it includes hidden deaths of people released from detention that ICE is reporting under Trump administration.

fwiw there's a difference between "having more sex" and "having more sexual partners" also, friend, did anything important happen in the world of sex between 1983 and 2026 that maybe made people rethink the number of their sexual partners?

My experience of @thisguysucked.com this morning. -hating on Gauguin -> discussing Botox and GLP1s -erotic mangos -re-doing screen record bc I didn’t know if mic was live. My coworkers don’t need child r*pe in the background. -as always: critiques of moral relativism (it was NOT OK then either)

ecstatic to catch the sunrise at the beach this morning
Sun rising over the Atlantic Ocean. Beach grass silhouetted in the foreground.  Calm waters.  Sky gradient from a reddish orange to a bluish grey.  Slight lens flare reaching into the grass.

It heats up lunch! I wouldn’t have said I use it much until having to wait for the oven to reheat or do extra dishes when reheating food for lunch since its demise - made me realize that I DO use it most work days. You aren't wrong though - it makes a lot of foods warm but worse.

While very happy to work somewhere that actually offers benefits, and those above and beyond basic health and dental, I ABHOR the yearly math I have to do around not winding up homeless if my spouse dies or one of us gets gravely ill, and at what likelihood the coverage is worth the cost

OK, so the main takeaways from "what movie scarred you for life" are 1) Bluesky is and remains *the* site for elder millennials who post too much, and 2) there is a pervasive and terrifying darkness to animated films from the late 70s and early 80s

The internet is telling me that it may be It Happened at Lakewood Manor, and photos of the pool make me think it might be. I may be making poor decisions and attempting to track the movie down.

I don’t even know the movie but my grandmother was watching it on TV after bedtime when i was 8. I came downstairs for ??? and there was a man being swarmed and eaten alive by ants by a pool. I had a thing about ants on me for YEARS. I still wonder why he didn’t just roll in to the pool.

Corn grows in its own protective covering. Why can I only get it pre shucked & wrapped in plastic? This is increasingly true of various produce items and it’s not like it’s protecting us when contamination usually happens at processing. If anything, it introduces more opportunity for contaminants.
Four pack of Signature Select ™️ Super Sweet Corn 

4 ears of corn, cut to fit in plastic container, wrapped in plastic. Vast majority of husk has been removed, with no visible silk.  Sure.  It’s pretty.  But it just removes us even further from our food sources.

‘“My favorite thing about radium water is it pulls the vaccine toxicity out of the body, and also is a solution to [electromagnetic field] sensitivity,” Roeske says later in his video.’ Man oh man I’ve got some wild stories about the pain and death that led to those vaccines and regulations.

She wears the Moon well. 🌙
The moon is a loyal companion.
It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be Heron.
Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections.

Mushrooms from my morning run! #FungalFriends

I had to double back to snap a photo.These guys just made me happy because they were different. Brownish ooobly goobly blob shaped shroom The other half of the brownish blobish mushrooms lining the path. The one on the bottom left somehow reminds me both of a croissant and a butt

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

My favorite little weirdo forced my sis to look up the eating habits of the tiny snails that showed up after the Nor’easter last weekend so that she could bring some to school for show and tell. Last week it was a watermelon - she told me all about how they weighed it by trying to pick it up.
