Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 21/08/2025Oh! What tremendous news! I'm not in the habit of celebrating a person's death, but this guy suuuuuuuuuuuuuucked. He was an absolute scum-sucking, vile, hateful maggot who actively made this world worse. www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/08/jame... 030 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I told spouse I was considering driving to the UP for the weekend but I hate the long (7hr) drive. He suggested flying bc he is Lucille Bluth and that it would only be like $100. Gflights returned this gem. Minneapolis to Marquette via a TWENTY-NINE AND A HALF HOUR LAYOVER at 🤬 O'HARE for $622. 010 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 16/06/2025We were promised "heavy rain soon" but it didn't happen so now I gotta figure out if I'm going to be able to make it home before it starts & ppl get weird on the roads. 000 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 27/05/2025OMG, that was amazing. MN Frost are the Walter Cup Champs again. Well played by both teams, and congrats to PWHL Playoff MVP Gwyneth Philips, who is truly a magnificent goalie. 070 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 25/05/2025Well, that was a heck of a game. I hope the Frost can do it again on Monday. 060 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 17/05/2025Two EXCELLENT goalies to watch tonight, but... Pretty disappointed to see both an 0zempic and a Chick Fil Eh ad on the boards????? C'mon, y'all. We can do better. #PWHL 210 0

Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Every couple of years, I am re-surprised to "discover" that J. Peterman still exists. I *loved* that catalog when I was a kid, pre-Seinfeld. I would be very tempted to apply for this job if it weren't in Chanhassen. 110 0

Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 28/02/2025It's spring break so this fella is home from university and it's fucken wimdy so our front door blew open (!?) and he got outside onto the deck and then panicked. He's been sticking extra-close to me since then. 010 0

Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 17/08/2023Is "salary meets cost of living" the new "competitive pay"? (The MN COL page is malfunctioning rn, but it looks like, for the greater TC metro, that means $21.50ish, in 2022.) 000 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 03/08/2023I'm finally about to graduate after two hellish semesters (in a long, long journey) & my instructor dropped a 16-page final on us.

Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 23/07/2023I bought a lumbar pillow for when I'm working on the sofa. Tried it out today & was like, oh, yes, this is SO much better than a folded-up throw pillow. My back is saved! ... ~90 min later, I am back to sitting like a pretzel-shaped gremlin anyway. 000 0
Gin @wickedgin.bsky.social · 20/07/2023Got in the car this morning to get coffee & my phone started playing Tracy Chapman's New Beginning album & what was I doing listening to this as a teenager??

![Under the label 'politics', lgbtqnation.com reports:
"James Dobson, massively influential Christian bigot, dies at 89
Good riddance"
Article by Daniel Villarreal
This includes a photo of a hateful old white man wearing glasses, smiling at the camera. It's the kind of face a person may want to punch.
The article goes on:
"James Dobson, the founder of the Christian anti-LGBTQ+ hate groups Focus on the Family (FOF) and the Family Research Council (FRC), has died at the age of 89. Hailed as one of “the most influential evangelical leader[s] in America,” he considered same-sex marriage worse than terrorism and encouraged men to murder trans women."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:3kioxu3tzv42xsrmb7ib5erq/bafkreihqpsgxzzayie7wpqv5c72rffcu7gjlb34yqkaxwmsn5rwj6l446m)
