potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Things are mostly all terrible and everything is hard. But there are sometimes good things. Like that Brandi Carlile's Sad Gay Version of the Returning to Myself album is out. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Today is the long-anticipated release of Live, Laugh, Love (by @kkdumez.bsky.social - huzzah! Of course, the USPS won't have it to me until next week. 🙃One could wish they would just... do their actual jobs. I do get to attend the event held tonight in Colorado Springs, so huzzah again. 110
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Pretty much no one follows me, so I feel very safe in saying that I'm feeling oddly hopeful that it's gonna be soon I look at this platform and learn it's The Day. Just a gut feeling, but I can't shake it. 🤞🤞🤞 001
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 27/08/2026I can't believe I've made it to 2026 without getting COVID. I take precautions, which have only hardened over time, but I'm still low-key amazed. 010
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 25/08/2026This is the incorrect 80-year old to have passed. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Fauci pleads the fifth, Republicans hold him in contempt like it's a real prosecution and not a years-long revenge larp. Dems clutch pearls about his "right to plead the fifth" and "years of service." Cool cool cool. 100
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 14/07/2026On the minus side, my husband just "found an entrance" after using the shop vacuum to dispatch any number of flying red insects. On the plus side, unlike anyone else who has ever lived here before, he knows what caulk is and how to use it. 000

potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 27/06/2026A spider was on me and now I'd like to peel off my skin suit and go screaming into the night. 010
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 24/06/2026The "love" my mother believes in. Extremely conditional. Very within the confines of shared "belief." They don't know the meaning of the word love, let alone have a concept of a radical love based in total acceptance of who a person is. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 14/06/2026IF it actually happens, how many seconds between the signing and the maga bootlickers trying to claim Juneteenth as "Trump should be emperor of the world day" for "solving Iran" and "bringing peace"? 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 13/06/2026I've been thinking about how older people with serious health issues will often hold on just past their birthdays before finally succumbing to their illness. No reason. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 02/06/2026Why are younger people not more active? This world on fire will be inherited by us. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Would love to see this entitled baby live in an actual shit house. I don't mean a cramped space that's been neglected for the past 40 years but which was originally intended as a dwelling. I mean a straight-up outhouse. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I don't think the question is whether this administration will handle this with the degree of incompetence they handle everything. I think the question is whether people will be any fucking smarter about protecting themselves and others. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 26/04/2026There is no clear reporting coming out of this correspondents dinner... 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Meanwhile, I'm wondering if I can get my sister to read it. She had a reaction to J&JW's title, but "secret history" has a different vibe than "corrupted a faith" does. 010
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 05/04/2026I'm doing this whole low inflammation diet thing, but if it's finally The Day, all bets are off. 010
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 20/03/2026@scalzi.com Just finished re-listening to The Kaiju Preservation Society and your afterword wrecked me a little. Thank you for naming what that time cost, the whiplash, the grief, the strange comfort of at least half of us being in it together. It still means something to be seen. Thank you. 010
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 13/03/2026This kind of shit makes me so angry. Dems have largely failed at public health because many were performative assholes. Criticism is deserved. And, very importantly (I cannot stress this enough): All masks are not created equally. Covering your face with a fucking balaclava is not medical PPE. 111
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 05/03/2026All they're gonna do is replace one incompetent bootlicker with another incompetent bootlicker. The only difference will be the variation on degree and type of incompetence. Oh, and degree of corruption. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 28/02/2026I hate every fucking thing about this timeline. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 22/02/2026My congratulations to Mermaid Gin for being one of the most sippable gins I've ever had. Sorry I missed you if you were in production the one time I was on the beautiful and magical Isle of Wight. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 21/02/2026My imaginary refund can go to someone who absolutely couldn't afford this impact. You know those folks aren't just out the additional cost of goods. It'll also be interest on credit card balances or overdraft fees or whatever other penalties there are for the "crime" of being poor. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 18/02/2026It’s fascinating to watch people condemn powerful men for treating others as disposable while refusing the smallest inconvenience to protect vulnerable people in their own communities. #MaskUp #CovidIsNotOver 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 02/02/2026I'm willing to believe Trump shit himself. I just don't know that I've seen anything or heard anything that makes me think, "Ah, yes, this is the moment." I do find it interesting that a Google search won't fill that in for me. Big tech helping out the pedo in chief? 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 16/01/2026"We hope that a long weekend will help. We'll absolutely disregard any measures that night actually help." 020
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 14/01/2026Not only as extensions of their ego, but as property. And as perceived property who stopped parroting beliefs, I can attest that they really think they own their children. Body. Mind. Soul. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 04/01/2026It's January. I live in the northern hemisphere at an elevation of about 8500 feet. I also have a solarium. This is my first winter here and I've spent the morning gardening, mostly pruning back grapes. Tomatoes and strawberries are starting to fruit. The peas are hale and hearty. Weird. Wonderful! 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 03/01/2026My first CYO @effinbirds.com of the year. Asked the spouse for the adjective without context. Feel it's an accurate description of the news this morning. 07810
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 02/01/2026I love potatoes. And I make no apologies for saying so. 010
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 01/01/2026I'm several hours away from the year ticking over into the new one. Pleased to have survived. Scared about the coming one. Fighting the good fight. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 26/12/2025I have several brothers. A few of them serve in the military. I spoke to more than one of them tonight. I'm not sure, in the aftermath of those conversations, that they see the Constitution clearly. Scary times, and times of opportunity. I'm doing my best to tell them a non kegseth view. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 25/12/2025If only more Christians could internalize this: Truly he taught us to love one another; His law is love and his gospel is peace. Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother, And in his name all oppression shall cease. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 25/12/2025Just watched episodes 5 and 6 of #Pluribus and, whew, as a COVID-aware person, they really hit. (Minor spoilers in the thread) 132
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 22/12/2025For MANY reasons, it hasn't felt very merry and gay this season. Until tonight.

potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 11/12/2025Watching Pluribus. Don't like it. Grief while the rest of the world is like " Let's all be super-spreaders," is just too fucking real. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 09/12/2025Having suffered shingles 3 times so far, I can say this is a big part of why I continue to avoid COVID. I was exposed to chicken pox without my consent. I have suffered for it from my 20s to 40s. We are gaining an idea of the long term effects of COVID and they sound worse than shingles, to me. 020
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 30/11/2025This view from the front porch today was well worth braving the cold! 020
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 27/11/2025I've never made tiramisu before and acquired all the ingredients a little while ago but haven't had the time to actually put it together before today. So either this will be a new tradition (I'm not into pumpkin pie), or we'll never speak of this again. 100

If we could enroll all 1,000 participants within a month of launch (by 11/30), it would send a powerful message about the demand for remote Long COVID clinical trials.

potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 22/11/2025What is happening. So much news, so little of it remotely explicable. 000
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 22/11/2025I know not many will see this, but it's snowing here. Have a timeline cleanse. 050
potato-lust.bsky.social @potato-lust.bsky.social · 12/11/2025I've always wanted to see the northern lights! 010
