The only orbs that should be coming back are Orbitz

A soda from the 90s called Orbitz. The bottle was shaped like a lava lamp, and the drink was a clear drink with colored balls of goo floating around in it. To be honest, it was like a flavored seltzer with balls of snot in it. But it looked rad

Is this a new "tide goes in, tide goes out" thing? Like

The "Are you serious?" reaction image macro that was created from the "tide goes in, tide goes out" Bill O'Reilly video

Goddamnit Bluesky we don't need fucking warnings to tell us that we just clicked a link. This is a fucking vile dark pattern designed to scare people and to keep them from ever leaving. Don't do this shit. The web is built on links. That's its fucking DNA. Gatekeeping links is manipulative bullshit

Don't forget: RTD thinks that GC are friends and they just have friendly, mild disagreements, and people are just terminally online if you think GC's really hate trans people

Quote from Russel T Davies from The Guardian:

Trying to get in as well rounded a view of the issues at stake here is a deliberate choice by Davies. Spit & Polish's employees are mostly a younger generation of LGBTQ+ people. He sought advice from the writer Juno Dawson, with whom he worked on Doctor Who, about how to portray the trans characters in the show, including the charming and endearing employee Zee (Iz Hesketh). Stephanie (Elizabeth Berrington), Leo's close friend whom we see throughout the series, is gender-critical - believing that biological sex cannot be changed from birth.
"I wanted all sorts of voices in there," says Davies. "I've got friends who are gender-critical. It's only online you end up screaming and shouting and being attacked by them. In real life, you have a chat, and we all kind of sigh and put up with each other. That's how the world works. It's actually how the world is ceasing to work." As terrifying violence looms towards the end of the series, Stephanie and Zee end up on the same side.

It's such a ridiculous word that means absolutely nothing. Are you a metalworker? Woodworker? Electronics hobbyist? Knitter? Astromech builder? Same way that "content creator" just bulldozes everything. "I'm a content creator" ok, but what is it you *actually do*?!

The Bobs from Office Space when they ask "What would you say you do here?"

This was Bowie. When we met him at the pound he was about 5-6 months old. They were calling him "Bowtie." We didn't like that, but thought that if he'd been called that for a while, maybe we should come up with something that at least sounded similar. I'm a massive David Bowie fan.
