I've never read what Thom Higgins had to say to the press after pie-ing Anita Bryant before, but "It left another bigot with a sticky face" is a helluva good quip

TIL the guy who slammed a pie in Anita Bryant's face was a Minnesota shit-stirrer named Thom Higgins, who is also credited (along with other Minnesotans) with the term "gay pride" www.twincities.com/2025/06/29/g...

Raihala: Meet the Minnesotan who coined the term ‘gay pride’ and tossed a pie in Anita Bryant’s face
After the Stonewall riots in 1969 sparked the gay liberation movement, Thom Higgins gave it a name.

if you're sick of me putting up Triple J "Like A Version" studio shots?, too bad, because Ashnikko, possibly the only entity who could do this so credibly?!??, performed "What You Waiting For?" www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL88...

Peggy Flanagan has offered this same Wild Rice Hotdish recipe in exchange for campaign donations multiple times in the past (pictured: July and November 2025) and it is simply my contention that Lt. Gov. Flanagan must have another recipe

Notwithstanding the catastrophic thinking, as a purported practitioner of journalism, that what your specific personal circle is or is not discussing is a reliable gauge of newsworthiness..... it is simply utterly impossible that THIS did not come up among Israelis!!! That Absolutely Did Come Up!!!!

I simply don't know how to deal with how common it is now for things that are so obviously and plainly false that for them to be true would *violate physical laws* to get this kind of heat and spread under them. It's like. I don't know how to say "you don't know what you're talking about" politely

This has been everywhere, but as Anna says, the claim people have been boosting has since been deleted because it is ***not true.*** It's appealing to think it would be!, but it is Not True At All

unfortunately I have to give it to them, "Truth Brush" is an incredible name for a gadget that you attach to your kid's toothbrush to determine if they actually did it or not, but I also want to say: W H A T

I found the FAQ from Oskaloosa County, Fla., which purchased the SS United States to create an artificial reef off the coast of Destin-Ft. Walton Beach, and I am lightly vibrating at the peculiarness of Florida buying ships *in order to sink them* and that this is anything *but* their first time

I live in Minneapolis, in one of just about three dozen Census tracts in the country where Somali is the second most spoken language at home (it's not very many!) and I just can not even begin to imagine where any of this vitriol nastiness and cruelty comes from, my neighbors don't even stay up late

ANNALISA, one thing I'll say for 🇮🇹 is they're still making main pop girls with outrageous vocal chops, here's "Mon Amour" www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzyD...

taber @kvetch.gay · 12/10/2026
yeah I agree with that sentiment, it actually works better if you're a little on edge every time you have to work with time and date because you actually have to understand how many rules you as a person don't have to think about but which the computer must be instructed explicitly on

listen "adhd.coacholivia729" the thing is the Finnish Tidying Method which I am sure you would like to sell me is very simple: it is that you do not own or possess objects. this works for them because they are Finns, which is like being human except that you do not possess any items or articles

I like where you're going with this but whenever I make mayo I expect it to start going off *fast* without the preservatives so that's not gonna work for my "make big pasta salad Sunday night eat for lunch all week" model

taber @kvetch.gay · 12/10/2026
I have an idea of a pasta salad machine and I think you can cook the pasta like rice cookers do so that's solved-ish but I think you gotta somehow use mayonnaise in packets bc the system you'd need to refrigerate the mayo would make it too heavy

I really enjoyed the Flanagan "Carrie" series, it's a very thoughtful revisitation of the story that manages to resite and resituate the characters very well without resorting to the cartoonish excess of the 1976 film; in the pantheon of the best King adaptations

more to the point: if you could break the internet by damaging infrastructure, that's a helluva lot easier than posting, so you'd do that. that there's so much posting is itself absolute proof that you simply can't bomb the internet offline

seeing a bunch of reckless wishposting again, again, so just a reminder that the Internet as a system is definitionally decentralized, multiply redundant, and effectively self-healing. so no. it is simply not possible to disable a service that uses the Internet by "taking out data centers"

Josh Hartnett can do that Newfoundland accent bc he is from St. Paul, Minn. and there too /aɪ/ is known to shift towards /ɔɪ/ because the 3M corporation has a patent on saying "light" correctly

the rocky stream feature that cuts a diagonal across Lowertown St. Paul's Mears Park is so sweet, the auditory babbling is a nice contrast to the more regular white noise of a city square fountain
