Fuck the southern Baptist church for making me believe my small transgressions could land me in hell when people like <gestures everywhere> this exist. Rest in agonizing turmoil Dennis Hastert and Jim Bakker.

We know what killed the first viable public electric vehicle (EV1). We lived through acid rain and know what we could accomplish if we all believed and acted on our own effects on the environment.

It’s not just new technology. We saw what lies on the internet did. We saw what photoshop could do. We watched manipulated videos spread like wildfire.

Take note: the people that were there when the web/internet got to households… are the ones who have seen the technology grow since inception by the public. We’re the ones raising the red flags about AI, its ability to manipulate truth, and the effects on the environment.

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

Are you in the middle of the country or willing to make the trip to buy the prettiest little car on the planet? Hit me up.

2003 Mazda MX-5 Miata, golden hour. No rattles, no leaks, mechanically great.

The Miata more recently but with with a less impressive sky

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

Came up with my own October drawing challenge where you draw things as octopuses every day it’s called October.

Drawing of a bunny octopus that says “October” on it.

My grandparents survived the terrible abuse of the Federal Indian Boarding School Era. That trauma wasn't isolated to the past—it was carried down through my family all the way to me. And there are so many families like my own across Indian Country.

they COULD design their app to make it actually serve the customer, with an easy “reorder” button that would duplicate the order exactly without error it would be: 1. utterly reliable 2. faster 3. cheaper so much “ai” is a sloppy patch for learned helplessness at the corporate level

Had some folks duped by this and we talked not only about the anti-abortion language but also why the other items were not even valid topics that needed a whole law. The entire thing is fear-mongering to attack a tiny portion of Missourians (and not even real scenarios) PLUS hide an abortion ban.

I don't love dunking on folks but it's so fucking funny to me that Trump was convicted of 34 felonies 2 years ago, faced no punishment, and went on to win the presidency a second time and journalists are still like, "hmm, I have an inkling that maybe he believes he's above the law for some reason."

Post from NYT reporter Eric Lipton

"What an odd moment in United States history.

A U.S. president is running an overtly political campaign advertisement, right before midterm elections, paid for by the U.S. government.

Trump appears to believe he is immune from any kind of legal limit."

Also why are we still using a torture device from the 1800s as the “modern day” tool for paps? There has to be a better way. 😭

Hate having to explain to my 18 yr old daughter why she should refuse to see an obgyn who won’t do localized anesthetic for Pap smears when I can’t even find one myself. It’s necessary to get these tests done and I’ve refused to do so until someone takes that pain seriously.

BTW- no fucking comps for bringing me the wrong order twice, and then making me wait while they have to make it while the other person with me was basically don’t eating by the time I got my meal.

What a fucking scam. They get my order wrong, TWICE by the way, then try to charge me in the tip for the item that was incorrectly entered.

Queen Althea: Pie Aficionado @msqueen03.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

You know what’s crazy? I figured out where the extra money came from in the gratuity amount. They had rung my order in wrong and instead of just removing it, they did a return item and then charged me for the correct item and the gratuity percentage includes the item that they returned. Holy shit.

Queen Althea: Pie Aficionado @msqueen03.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Hey Olive Garden… This math doesn’t math. Whether you’re adding 20% to the subtotal or total after tax, this ain’t fucking it. Wtaf

Subtotal of $58.14 and tax of $6.82, making it $64.96 before adding gratuity

$64.96 is the after tax price and it says 20% of that is $17.19 and not the $13 it actually is.
