Angry, yelly, soccer fan and socialist living in Downtown PDX. My apartment looks like a frat house that is very into fiber arts. She/her/dude, gender: queer, old enough to be your parent. Views are mine and not those of my employer, parent, or cat.

'Cringe' is "embarrassment".

Embarrassment is "Feeling self-conscious due to some event or circumstance"

Y'all. If you feel cringe, get you some self confidence! You are too awesome to be embarrassed!

If you call someone cringe, quit being a douche and go hype someone you love!

My life, by Matt Tarpley

Angry frog, cartoon and four panels. The frog says I am looking my best. I am working my hardest. I am expressing myself. I am trying my best

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

(Side note: all artists make stank face when they hit a groove, it's just that it's 12,000% less cool on writers and painters, hilarious af when dancers do it, & never laugh if you see a crocheter do it.)

I watched the day come in
hesitant to show its colors
then brighter
confident
finally bold
to the bold I say
good morning. Daylight looks good on you

Tweet too long.

“If HERCULES: THE LEGENDARY JOURNEYS had filmed a season in the 2010s, there definitely would have been an episode where Hercules and Iolaus travel to the city of Ur—which looks like a New Zealand suburb—and discover there that Salmoneus has been placed under arrest by the King for fraudulently selling lousy copper. Hercules investigates and it turns out Salmoneus is just a wholesaler and the crappy product is the fault of his supplier, an absolute dirtbag merchant played by guest star Keenan Ivory Wayans.

Hercules beats up the merchant's goons to discover evidence of his shady business practices and the evidence saves Salmoneus from getting his hands chopped off but the king respects the merchant too much to punish him for his fraud. Salmoneus fecklessly screams out as he departs on horseback with his companions that he's going to write a formal complaint about his poor customer service, and the merchant just clutches his gut laughing and finally shouts back "And who shall ever care, that humble Ea-Nasir had a displeased customer?" Fade to credits as Salmoneus seethes”

Everytime I see an Alolan Dugtrio I remember that the first time @adriancantrell.bsky.social saw one, she burst into laughter and said "look at this lil Hanson pokemon" and I get a little shock of joy 😂😂😂

The pokemon's lucious blonde locks are swishing as it poses cutely.

And while we need to work together to bring about collective change and restore public health and science YOU too can literally start wearing a mask again tomorrow anywhere we share air, regardless of what anyone else does. You too can break a chain of transmission. So what choice will
You make?

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Now, now, let's not lose all hope for a Mariners/Cubs World Series with 14/15 inning games and multiple meltdowns all over Bluesky.

IT COULD HAPPEN. IT COULD.
