Snapped this over the weekend during the Historic Blizzard™, really glad to be healthy so I didn’t miss this snowfall!

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

Post from r/crochet that says "mods are gone. All hail Mr. Nipples" and its a picture of the most disgusting crocheted doll/creature thats pink and has a creepy smile and horns and big pink nipples. It's truly horrifying

Been cooking stuff in the spare time I’ve had recently. Here’s one of them: rene.fm/2025-monthly... When I went through a divorce I started going Outside aimlessly and cataloguing music I encountered in playlists. I’ve kept that habit up, but last year was extra special to me so I made posters.

On Jan. 14, our parent company Ziff Davis laid off 5 of our members, days after our successful CES showing as the CNET Group. This is the third round of layoffs since Ziff acquired CNET in 2024. We’re sick of our members being on the chopping block. Read our full statement below:

One day something will happen — a wedding, a graduation, a job promotion, Jake Paul getting knocked out, Andrew Tate getting knocked out the next day — and you’ll want the right outfit to celebrate. Buy that special outfit now, so you’re ready when that next unexpected moment arrives.

Today’s pen tool thoughts: it would be so cunty if a queen performed JADE’s Self Saboteur and let the outro go into Lip Service for a separate queen’s number (yes like so on the album) Idk if any drag performers are on Bsky, but if you are.. you’re welcome

FIGHTING BACK AGAINST AI with worker action AND solid contract protections. Last year, ZDCG took action online and in-person to gain AI guardrails. We swarmed Slack, spoke out at the bargaining table, and took to the streets to picket.

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

A close up of his shoes show weird stitching on the side. They look like they're the first shoes ever made in history.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members. At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

how the average straight couple looks when going out for dinner

Genuine apologies. I don't mean to be disrespectful. But I don't know who this woman is. I believe she is a Fox News host, but when I Googled "woman Fox News host," everyone looked the same. So I don't know this person's name.

Anyway, the photo shows a blonde woman wearing a checked sport coat and white shirt standing next to John Fetterman, who's wearing a dumpy black work shirt.
