hello, this got reposted into my feed and a) you might be an idiot but b) I would have done exactly the same in your situation. I don't know if that helps or not.

My housemate gave me some sunflower seeds and now everything in my mouth is fibre.

Couches are wonderful friends, aren't they?

so the meme du jour seems to be "childhood scary media" in which case my answer is: my earliest memory after seeing Halley's Comet is hiding from the Daleks behind the couch. but even recently I've been having a lot of zombie apocalypse dreams, with nuances I can trace to various RL "events".

I love people and the internet. Even though "people and the internet" leads to some of the worst stuff.

Maybe I'm just way more social than I think of myself as being.

I realised the other day ("we dropped groceries off to my friend" "oh, the friend who's been sick?" "no, an entirely different friend group friend") that I have a disturbing number of in-real-life friends. But, my bsky friends are still really important to me.

Waking up without a headache is a blessing.

Gentle hugs. Brains are awful to us, aren't they?

If you look at this and think "there must be fascinating discussion in the comments too!", you'd be right.

Slept approx 12 noon yesterday to 7am this morning, with breaks to eat ,and stare at the ceiling in the dark. Do I still have a headache? Hell yeah.

I don't have enough knowledge to make up my mind about this particular guy yet, but you don't see a difference between discrimination based on immutable characteristics and judging a person for a specific thing they (may) have done?

Ugh, getting migraine, debating leaving market early while I can still drive. Ughhhhh

In the line for the toilets, a girl looked at me and said “are you judging me?” I said, “I honestly wasn’t listening.” She launched into a spiel about how she buys from Shein and even though they use “slave labour and stuff”, if she didn’t they wouldn’t have a living… “Now I’m judging you, yeah.”

I’m at the market early and I’ve already cut myself on a clipboard

Folks, I went to a gig with some friends and we wore A Costume and made so many people smile. And so many people take selfies with us. Twentyish??? I lost count. It was a good night even if we wimped out early because we're old and tired.

That's probably more productive than what I'm doing...

Pointing out that you refuse to substantiate your argument is not a personal attack, Gina.

I have not spent my time wisely this afternoon, but I have definitely spent it.

Oh booooo. Good on you for taking care of yourself but hope you do get an absolutely fantastic ride when you are up to it.

Well, in your defense There are worse problems to have Many many worse.

I am heading somewhere after work that's on this side of town, so there's no point going home and coming back again. May as well stick it out a little longer. Otherwise I would agree.

I'm "essentially saying" that deliberately emphasising his tā moko by darkening it is bigoted dogwhistling. It's right there in the words I chose. Your refusal to acknowledge that point doesn't detract from it.

Nomnomnom de Plume @verbscape.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

It should be illegal* for days to be like this. (Disclaimer: I do not actually believe this should be illegal.)

I don't know but writing poetry *would* be a good use of my time.

Nomnomnom de Plume @verbscape.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

"on the side of" in what way, Gina? In the sense that I don't label him as 'scary' and I think that Hobson's Pledge running an ad where they deliberately darken his tā moko to emphasise it is bigoted dogwhistling? In that sense? Sure, I admit that.

Nomnomnom de Plume @verbscape.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Hang on, you just said you couldn't take my opinion seriously on *anything* and you're accusing *me* of personal attacks? Because I implied I don't care what you think of me? Right-o.

020

Nomnomnom de Plume @verbscape.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

And I had such high hopes for your opinion of me.

I have two hours left of work but I do not have two hours of work left to do. Next week it all hits the fan and I'll be busy as hell, but this afternoon is dragggggging.

Because this wouldn't fit in the previous post: Your generalisation says more about *you* than it does about 'the public'.

Nomnomnom de Plume @verbscape.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Polls are about who people would vote for, i.e. their primary preference. I am not aware of a poll that asks people who they find 'scary'. I am not planning to vote for Te Pāti Māori. I do not find them scary, because I am not a racist cabbage.

My friends are going through hard times and I love them so much. ❤️💔❤️ I just want to fix everything and I can't.

Lol ‘the public’. Which public is that, Gina?

I delivered eggs to a friend and then they gently informed me that I'd put my foot right on the dismembered remains of a dead rat and anyway now I have to clean my boots.

"You're right, that was irresponsible of me, and I apologise. You clearly stated not to use the lake-sucking-up machine of lies, and I let you down. That's on me. Going forward, how would you best like me to use the lake-sucking-up machine of lies?"
