ONE YELLOW EYE X IT LASTS FOREVER THEN ITS OVER Green, a drug made from the dead, gives a high & the memories of who they were. Zan may only be a casual user, but there's more to the drug than people think: a possible future where those who died may be warning the end of the world is coming. #DVPit

LAST CONTRACT OF ISAKO x KILLSWITCH PROTOCOL Arun “Starling” Tige doesn’t want to be an assassin anymore. Only problem is, the man who trained her can give her the childhood memories she lost in a coup twenty years ago, but to get them back he wants her to kill a king. #DVPit #A #SF #LGBT

So, according to Webster (and they brought receipts) the term "Bucket List" started with the 2007 movie. I just checked all my old documents and emails and nope, nothing before that time. I feel like I'm losing my damn mind.

one of the best things i ever did for my mental health when working with submissions was change my "rejections" (in red) to "pass" (in neutral grey). it makes things easier. i recommend it for querying, or anything you're doing that involves this kind of work.

Agree/Disagree: There's a difference in these sentences that we can't explain. “It's not dissimilar.” “It's similar.” “It's kind of the same.”

Marrying a man with a crazy high IQ is tougher than you'd think. Not because he's not a feminist (he is) or because he's condescending (he isn't). It's cause he always gets a better score in wordle and connections than me and can't possibly understand how I was confused.

It's the 4th of July on the 250th anniversary of America, and I'm disappointed in the plutocracy we've become. I'm an American. I was born here. You will bury me in American soil. I'll fight for my country to be what I know it can be, and that's better than what it is.

My favorite interaction of the day: At the @BurgerKing drive thru Me: Thank you! Cashier: What for? Me: I used to work fast food and I know it's a thankless job! Cashier: uh ok... Me: I'm just trying to be nice... Cashier: Next window, please. What the fuck, can't I be polite?

I'm no influencer, but I occasionally get locals on my viral posts telling me where they know me from. Worst one yet: "Hey! I think I know you from the Maryland Surgery Center! Hit me up!"

After not using doordash since the whole 'doordash lady' thing a month ago, we decided to have something delivered today. Half the order was missing and the drinks were spilled all over what was there. At least it reminded us that we hate everything about the app.

The fact that now there's an AI Chatbot that can mimic your ex so you can talk to them is weird as hell. I don't want my ex or ex friends to pretend they're still talking to me. Move on, freaks.

So I read a chapter of Ducks, Newburyport yesterday and although it's dense, I was pretty sucked in. Maybe (the fact that?) I'm a millennial and the references all hit spot on for me worked? I don't know? Has anyone else read this?

Mother's day is a weird holiday. I used to be able to text my exes with "happy father's day" to confused, terrified replies. You can't do that with mother's day and ex girlfriends. It doesn't hit the same.

I love watching the Met Gala posts while I'm four weeks away from my unemployment running out and my phone is running slow from an update I didn't want and there's an ad every other post for things according to an algorithm designed by AI I can't turn off it just puts everything into perspective

It's hard to admire celebrities for being sober because if they inevitably fall off the wagon it's a pretty, well, sobering experience for the rest of us.

Yeah so I'm at a bookstore and my husband said his phone wasn't working so when I couldn't find him I screamed out "What's the worst that I could say!" expecting his usual response except he was in the bathroom so the entire store went completely silent so yeah that happened

MJ Huntsgood @mjhuntsgood.bsky.social · 18/04/2026

Just a reminder, I have a few more spots left in this low-cost workshop. I keep these costs only at what I need to keep them running. Please feel free to inquire. They're $10 and super interactive.
