The Wisconsin in me is drooling

I realize it's really early, but much of my joy recently has been related to #Cardiff trip planning, so if you have any must-trys, must-visits, or must-eats from that city, go ahead and reply with it.

It's possible you've already watched The Others (2001) so if you have I'd suggest The Changeling (1980).

Did gumbo not come out of mixed African and American culture? Did I miss something? Hello? Are they gonna claim pizza is Israeli next?

Folks like RAW EGG NATIONALIST here just make me want to eat even more unfamiliar to me foods out of spite.

I can't recommend Frogman. That's my most recent Tubi horror watch.

Transphobes don't wash their hands after going to the toilet, pass it on.

I'm salty that this album is not available on Spotify.

I have wasted a lot of time at work and in general scrolling social media so I've uninstalled the Bluesky and Instagram apps on my phone. If I'm not posting as often, this is one reason why.

Today is apparently suicide prevention day and I want to remind people: UBI is suicide prevention. Universal health care is suicide prevention. Mental health care is suicide prevention. Patient advocacy and adequate disability resources are suicide prevention. Gun control is suicide prevention.

They've lost the 9yos

Updates: doing strength training exercises with 10 pound weights as my average and 15 pounds at the high end when I basically started from nothing.
Also I have decided that I will regret not seeing Michael Sheen in a play at some point so it's time to start some solo international trip planning.

Porque no Los dos?

Here's another one for good measure

My mom might have taken Tylenol when she was pregnant, but regardless, I now know all the lyrics to all the songs from VeggieTales

I cannot emphasize this enough:

The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent.

They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so.

Doomers are not realists.

Also that authoritarians die

That has its pluses, it's a reminder that yes, people have dealt with this kind of shit before and survived.

They can’t win fairly with policy or eloquence or fairness or intelligence so they’ll just silence everyone who disagrees with them. It’s fascism but in its most cowardly and pathetic form.

the nurse was a lovely grandmotherly lady who, when I expressed gratitude they were still making the vaccines available, assured me:

"The COVID vaccine will be around longer than RFK 😏"

Orange baby is no longer with us but I still love her.
