“why are there so many allergies now! It must be the GMOs”

…no there’s always been a lot of people with a lot of allergies, ppl were just quietly really sick from everything they ate & didn’t know why
lol lmao this would be such a shitshow in south Florida? I’m within 50 miles of the fucking Bahamas
A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.

When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.

This is outrageous.

there’s a time and place for long form shitposts, it was 2009 LiveJournal
If this happens here please know that if you write a single post with more than, say, six hundred characters or so, I am going to block or mute you and never look back.
Saw a post advocating for longer character limits on here and have you fucking seen a Bill Ackman tweet? Get that evil away from me.

“Why would you choose to go through life cold?” —this is what I wonder every time I leave Florida in the winter
Why would you choose to go through life cold?

One other time I had this coat, it was Patagonia. I called it my secret down coat. It had down on the inside but the outside it was like a rain shell. The number of people who did not believe me when I said I was warm.

They probably already know this by now, but for artists who don't know yet, you can turn this off! In Create & Manage Invoices, there's a Feedback section with the setting before you make an invoice.
Apparently Paypal is now asking those who commissioned artists through invoices for feedback on the experience, Please never type anything, Its a trap. Just putting both yours and their accounts at risk of bans.

A history we must remember as techbros try to move us back to "company town" dynamics
#tdih 1960. W. Tenn. Black sharecroppers registered to vote (to break all-white juries which denied fair trial).

White landowners evicted them in cold of winter, “barred them from buying groceries or gas, & from receiving bank loans and medical services.” 💔 ⬇️ 🧵

…this review is for shelf pegs, which have measurements, it’s impossible to do a search and not get every size possible, and HD has a generous 90-day return policy. Like I honestly don’t get it.

Remember to make space for feelings while and after cleaning.

Cleaning isn't just cleaning. It can bring up memories and wishes both good and bad.

You got this.

Take a break and go hydrate. The dirt will wait for you to come back.

Waiting on the newly purchased fence boards to dry (they come soaked in an anti-mold treatment), so while my garage smells AMAZING (FRESH CUT LUMBER OMG), I can’t paint the latest set… so I’m going to redo a kitchen cabinet that’s inefficient 🥳 it’s been bothering me for TWO YEARS.

There is another way: I successfully connected with a bunch of well known people from my industry through the medium of unhinged shitposting.
Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +
