Today I saw a google booth on the busiest walkway in the city centre, begging people to try gemini in exchange for a free hot drink. The booth was completely empty. Good.

spooky bookshelf repost 🌿💜💀 [ #art ]
Digital illustration of a purple, green, and grey-blue bookshelf. It has five shelves and is decorated with books, various curios, and items. A human skull, a bust of the goddess Diana, a frame of butterfly specimens, a gold filigreed frame of a human heart.

Unfortunately Winter Burrow isn't quite the craft your homestead survive the winter game I thought it would be. It's instead a relentlessly optimistic cozy game that doesn't shy away from the world being a cold and dark place. Never teared up so much at talking animals in my life

So close to my deadlines that I had to cancel a fringe trim. So close to my deadlines that my nails are growing out. So close to my deadlines that I keep seeing this symbol inside my eyelids…
The symbol for the “stir crazy” moodlet for the Sims games. It’s a little pink face with its eyes crossed and its tongue sticking out at an odd angle.

It's strange how Democratic Socialists - who are being denounced by both parties - turned major deficits into balanced budgets in both New York and Seattle.

All that “put the fries in the bag” stuff ever does is reveals that online reactionaries believe everyone is as afraid of hard work as they are. I worked almost every role McDonald’s has, and it was a great job full of interesting, supportive teammates. Never look down on the people who feed you.

The fun thing about being a ginger lady in the autumn is that you can put on any green clothing, go for a little walk in your local forest, and if you make juuust the right kind of eye contact people can be reasonably convinced that you might be able to curse them

There's absolutely nothing wrong with working a minimum wage retail job no matter your age. A job is a job. And this performative, ignorant gatekeeping by those saying it's not a "proper job" can get in the bin. Work is work.

Reminded today that as a student I used to put vanilla essential oil in the dryer with my bedsheets… but it was a *shared* dryer, and now I think back, I don’t know how the other people in my halls didn’t track me down for revenge
