A NEW RECORD!! 🎉 4 million dollars for charity in 48 hours (with the help of matching funds) is absolutely astonishing. I’m so proud of this community! #P4A2026

The behind the scenes people of the #ProjectForAwesome always have the best sense of humour. Both of these roasts were immaculate 👌 #P4A2026

I’m such a big fan of the @lateralcast.com Completely unrelated, I thought that the segment with the legally distinct gameshow Sideways (hosted by Tom Lum in a legally distinct orange shirt) on the #P4A2026 livestream was really good and absolutely hilarious for some reason

It shows Tom Lum in an orange shirt and with the description ”(host of legally distinct Sideways) (he/him).” It also shows Ella Hubber with the description ”(Party Worm) (she/they)” and Caroline Roper with the description ”(Party Worm) (they/them).”

Catching up on the #P4A2026 stream while cleaning and doing laundry today — and I sure missed some things while sleeping, huh? So far, I’ve laughed at those stupid accents, danced to the banana loca song, and cried over Tessa Violet’s beautiful singing. Hopefully, no weird crypto guy shows up next..

Cutest and funniest set of moments of the #P4A2026 stream so far. First Gummy Bear and then… Look at Hank in that second picture. This man knew full well what he was saying 😂

I didn’t know that, thank you for the suggestion! I had to do quite a lot of scrolling as the tag kept jumping up and down with new posts, but I eventually found and thanked them!

I’m catching up on the stream now and can’t stop giggling about the person who donated under the name ”Ilya’s tuna melt” and Hank and John’s oblivious reaction when they read it. ”Don’t mind if I do!” John, I’m pretty sure Shane would mind… 👀 #P4A2026

Omg, I haven’t watched it yet (I need to wake up to do a presentation in like six hours and should sleep), but I’m guessing this is about Scott Hunter being next door?

Okay, but why is no one talking about how the song ”I’ll Believe in Anything” by Wolf Parade (the SAME song Scott kisses Kip to in episode 5) is also playing right before they meet in episode 3?? The sunshine metaphor is present throughout their whole relationship! #HeatedRivalry #INeedSunshine

I know everyone else is already talking about it, but #HeatedRivalry is so freaking good!! I’ve already listened to all of the #GameChangers audiobooks (book 2 and 6 multiple times) and watched several reaction videos, and now I’m (not very) patiently waiting for the show to be accessible in Sweden.

I had no idea that Focus Friend was the app of the day, but I still posted about it a few hours ago. Thank you for this app, it’s so helpful! bsky.app/profile/magh...

Really grateful to have my #FocusFriend Eda to help me stay off my phone (by me helping her stay off hers) right now. I definitely need it, with all of the reading and writing I need to do for various uni courses, for my part-time job, and as a part of the job searching process.

Can confirm! I’m a linguist from Sweden and had to read about it for at least two different university courses (even though none of my two main languages of study was English)

Sometimes, being a humanities student is hard. Other times, being a humanities student means sitting in a cosy cabin by a fireplace, sipping red wine and reading Nietzsche in German.

Donated blood today! 🎉 It feels so good to help save lives, either by people getting my blood directly or by them benefitting from the science it sometimes gets used for. If you can, I would highly recommend donating! ❤️

In all seriousness, I remember being 17 y/o, feeling so lost and finding joy in watching Dan and Phil in my small room at my parents’ house. Today, I turned 27 y/o in my own apparent. Still feeling a bit lost, but in a more hopeful way, and still watching these guys share their story ✨🏳️‍🌈

I’m just now catching up on the last few episodes of @newestolympian.bsky.social and based on vibes and several things that were said in episode 191, I would love for Paul Caiola to be the guest for chapter 36 of House of Hades 👀

Now that I take both pole dance and aerial hoop classes, my favourite thing is showing people the huge bruises on my arms and telling them about how the bruises on my legs hurt so much that I can barely walk — and then say ”It’s sooo much fun, you should try it!” They always look so horrified 😂

I know we probably should be wary of the increasing gamification of our hobbies, but watching numbers go up sure helps my motivation! I’ve been trying to fight off reading slumps since high school and #StoryGraph is helping. And as a bonus I’m reading so many good books and feeling way happier! 📚💙
Graph showing how many books I’ve read per year from 2015 until now. The first few years are roughly 20 books, the middle years 3 to 15 books, last year 25 books and this year 37 books so far. The total is 159 books.Graph showing how many books and pages I’ve read per month this year. The total is 37 books and 14,803 pages. The graph varies between 2 and 6 books per month.

Like, I’ve thought about him maybe twice since our last interaction — and only when telling my friends how bad our date went! He hasn’t crossed my mind in weeks. And even if he was thinking about me, why send me a new friend request after I told him I didn’t want to date him and unfriended him??
000
Magdalena Håkansson @maghak13.bsky.social · 22/09/2025
I’m speechless. I let him add me on Snapchat, but unfriended him after I politely told him I wasn’t interested (and venmoed him for a beer he bought me). It’s 11.30 pm on a Monday and this 30 y/o man just sent me another friend request. A month later. How am I STILL living in his head rent free?!

*I’m not in any way religious, but haven’t bothered to officially leave the Swedish national church (that I was baptised into as a baby) because they still do some cultural, charitable and environmental work I (mostly) don’t disagree with. And I can vote against nationalists in the elections!

I’m rereading #Babel and tried to look up if R.F. Kuang has ever explicitly answered whether Robin is gay or bi. Instead, I found several people saying they didn’t pick up on him being either. I don’t understand. How can so many people miss a whole subplot?? The hints literally start in chapter 3!

Additional context: 1. We live in Sweden, so there are eight big parties and several smaller ones to choose from. 2. There were some other yellow/orange flags that I was willing to look past (at least enough to give him a chance), but that discussion made me realise that he’s not for me.

Magdalena Håkansson @maghak13.bsky.social · 23/08/2025
The reasons he gave were ”politics is too polarised these days” and ”there are no good options”. And while I agree to some extent, maybe vote for the least bad option then?? Or, if you truly don’t care, vote to make the world better for other people who don’t have that privilege?

I’ve been texting with a guy I matched with on Tinder for a few weeks. Seemed kind and genuine, asked questions, good-looking. We finally met up on a date. Then he said that he doesn’t vote in elections, and I don’t think I’ve ever gotten turned off by anything so fast.

It’s probably because — and I’m gonna take a wild guess here — Focus Friend is a better product, with better impact on the world than anything Musk will ever make.

I was also surprisingly disappointed in Dan and Phil when they didn’t instantly recognise that Brennan Lee Mulligan is the voice actor for the board game character. Like, I haven’t watched even half of all the things he’s done, but I got it immediately and thought it was really sweet and clever.

I have now watched multiple people play the #DateEverything game and NOT A SINGLE ONE has commented on the line ”Bye, Phoenicia!” during the tutorial. It’s even said exactly like ”Bye, Felicia!” How can you not at least chuckle at the fact that they put that in there??

Can we acknowledge that the best thing about every edition of #Taskmaster is the assistant? Alex Horne, Paul Williams, Tom Cashman, David Sundin… In every edition I’ve watched, their mannerisms, comedic timing and ability to put up with anything while fighting to keep a straight face is hilarious 😂

Yes, it’s so important, and everyone I’ve seen has done such a good job! (I’m going to delete and post my original post again, bc I accidentally got one of their names wrong, but thank you for the like and comment!)

So did the people in the audience share knowing smiles with each other at a specific point during the liveshow of this week’s episode, or…? Because at a certain moment, you really made some… interesting connections without realising it 👀 @newestolympian.bsky.social

In other news, after having bought it years ago, I’m finally reading ”The Milky Way — An Autobiography Of Our Galaxy” by @goastromo.bsky.social and it’s really interesting, surprisingly funny, and well-written enough that even someone with a cold and a light fever can follow along 🌌
