My exact face when I thought of this during a work meeting πŸ˜‚
I like to test my puns before releasing them into the wild.

It’s important to try these things on for sighs.

I post this every year and here it is once again:

A whole lot of people cannot afford to evacuate. That’s why they stayed. That’s the story.

Pray for them if you will and send money and aid if you are able. This is going to be bad.
Time to get TΓ’f a kitten, because your house is too quiet and sedate.

The kind of person who can look at chatgpt and still use it, is the exact kind of person who would have a million excuses for supporting a fascist. And they'll use the same excuses and rationalizations for both.

Probably using chatgpt to regurgitate suitably mealymouthed word salad.
My brother really struggled to read initially. When he stumbled on the Asterix comics, he finally started reading for pleasure; he went straight from those to Pratchett and then Asimov.

Women started fandom. Women started fanfic. Women started star Trek cons. Women invented beer, and the novel, while we're at it. Stop trying to erase women from spaces, you stupid, lazy, misogynistic fucks.

Y'all wanna see why I started saying this?
Thank you for everything you have done to bring this together. So excited!

Everyone please diligently check your candy this year. I cracked open a snickers bar and not only did I find a copper ingot, but it was of poor quality.

Worse still, when my man Nanni confronted my neighbor about it, he was treated with disdain.

Okay, it's time for a reality check.

[Checks reality]

What. The. Actual. Fuck.

[Unchecks reality]
Right? I swear, if I ever catch up with any of the people who started star fort nonsense, Tartaria, mudflood, mountains-are-fossilised-giant-trees, etc…
There’s a lot of people in archaeology groups who believe very strongly in some very ridiculous conspiracies about governments hiding evidence of past civilisations. When I point out the flaws in their logic, they almost always complain about my fancy hat.
There’s something about having their wild theories punctured by facts from someone who looks like this, that sends them absolutely livid.
On Facebook, my profile picture is from my Masters graduation a few years ago, with my mortar board cap on.

I *am* proud of myself for getting my masters, but the real reason I keep that as my profile picture is because of how much it upsets conspiracy guys in archaeology groups. I’m petty πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
