Yeah, this part was very much when I was all in on "fuck you Diana"

Yeah, I had a lot of rage for Diana reading this too. I know she's in a cult, but there's so much "I'm a good person" bullshit coming out of her here that makes me crazy.

I worked for a school photo company. Lady, trust me that I tried to get your kid to smile multiple times, and I can't touch their hair. I think I did a pretty good job given that I was supposed to cycle through one kid every 45 seconds

It makes me so sad when I hear about goofy people heading down destructive paths like this. A family member has worked with another such person and fuck... he couldn't have just stuck with games and building a street-legal Autopia vehicle?

should have said '70s/'80s of course. Maybe they will be remembered now as "those creeps in Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains" - who knows? 20 years ago that movie had been disappeared and now you can easily see it

They opened up for David Bowie at the first "real" (unaccompanied by parents) rock concert I went to! They're hard to fit into a neat slot and people love neat slots, esp. for '80s music

George would get those trousers hemmed properly. Actually, he'd probably throw that entire suit in the fire and start again.

Somehow she’s not the same
I haven’t posted on here for nearly two years. I just looked at that last post and thought about all the shit that has happened since then. It’s almost too much to bear. But people are …

I used to have this on vinyl (bought at a Goodwill in the '80s) and now I don't know where the heck it went!

This is what I'm getting stuck on as well. You used to not be able to escape the #1 pop song. Now it's... I don't know where it is?

A Crock o’ (BLIP) Now - I saw this as a kid and it took me too long to understand that the BLIP was censoring “shit.” To this day I never know which way to reference the title

You should ask Fiona to glare at whomever is responsible for this. "I am sorely disappointed, Mother Nature."

In the past few months I've heard way more about Mannequin Pussy than this song or the artist - I don't think I've seen a single article about the latter even though my browser at work opens up with the generic "you might be interested in" links. This is not "I don't even own a TV" territory

The one before that had majored in ancient Norwegian or something at UCSC and we spent the interview discussing scandals of the black metal scene. Another stellar employee

He was an amazing hire, by the way. Damn smart and funny and quit the job after a year because it was designated as a "temp" position and he didn't believe in companies doing the whole permanent temp thing (I supported his position but was so mad the company wouldn't make him permanent)

This discourse has me thinking about the last two people I hired. One came in wearing a purple tie and a thrifted '60s short-sleeved buttondown with a purple pattern. Admin assistant job. I was blown away. Anybody else but me would have gone "no way" but I was "I CAN GET ALONG WITH THIS CHARACTER"

I might have it wrong but I asked the question to somebody who does way too much of this gambling because I didn't get it either

Queen Sissy @queensissy.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
As it was explained to me, it's really some bullshit. You're not gambling, you're buying into shares of someone else gambling in a way that it legal? Like, this should be an easy loophole to fix but politicians are either too chickenshit or too eager for campaign donations from these vampires

It's an addiction. This is like waving a line of coke under a drug addict's nose.

I'm actually familiar with 39 of these shows and I have no idea how that happened. I'm usually staring blankly at people at work talking about TV

Somebody just pointed out that Fargo isn't on here, and I noticed earlier that Taskmaster wasn't on here, so I don't think I need to spend any more time thinking about this list

I know we swallow a lot of garbage people like him dish out, but I don’t think he’s talked to a normal human in a very long time if he expects us all to go “oh,ok” with this one

Oh my. Interesting to me that there was so much weaponized therapy speak, and then the presence of an actual licensed therapist was deemed “wildly unsafe”
