Boldly answering the question of "how can we profit from the maladaptive coping strategies of a public already pushed to their breaking point"

This 'The Bear'-esque dining experience puts you in the center of the kitchen chaos

At Speakeasy Society's 'Family Meal,' curse words are thrown, recipes are slandered and it all makes for fun, irresistible drama.

I don't really believe in The Greatest as a concept, but for me it's either Robert Pollard or Rebecca Gates.

Pretty funny how I'm not seeing anyone say Dylan tho

Emily, a Two-Shoes-Gooder @rebelmusicteach.bsky.social · 4d

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.

Who is yours? Either the greatest or your favorite?

This migraine will end with me puking and I'm not happy about it

For fucks sake, the heart of this fight is that you can't determine morality by goddamn phenotype, what is so fucking hard for normies to understand about this

Do you realize what a week and untrustworthy ally fat shaming makes you? My God

Anyways Seattle I am doing this tonight, I know it says "open mic" but it's really more of a 4 hour proletarian prayer service, the message being "we will survive capitalism somehow, together." Come and share your voice.

SEATTLE TONIGHT:

*deep world weary sigh* has anyone tried calling Bondi a nasty woman

If the music industry wasn't the zero sum nightmare it is right now then information like that wouldn't be so poisonous you know?

miss Mira, Slut Shaman @missmira2u.bsky.social · 2d

It's hard to describe in a way that doesn't make it seem like a bigger thing than it was. When they got signed I told them to be careful, they asked me why, and when I told them they blocked me immediately. Comme so comme sa. Doesn't take away from what they've achieved, but still hella sleazy imo.

If anyone is seeing ekko astral in Seattle tonight, try not to mention to them how the head of their label abetted my rapist in abusing me and wrecking my life. I know firsthand that they don't like to hear that

miss Mira, Slut Shaman @missmira2u.bsky.social · 3d

Very few others I would trust this from, thank you darlin ♥️

Hear ye hear ye a message of hope and inspiration from our courageous leader in exile, Link. May all his loyal followers take heart!

I appreciate all the people showing love and support to me. I’m so grateful honestly. It means a lot. The ban isn’t that big of a deal for me. I think it was wrong and the explanation was bullshit. But that’s ok and I accept. Social media comes and goes. I’m grateful for all the connections I was able to make and all the people I get to be connected with off Bluesky. More importantly, the world needs more people to give a fuck. More people to give a fuck about Palestinians, more people to give a fuck about disabled folks, more people to give a fuck about our queer and trans siblings, more people to give a fuck about Black liberation. The world, and Bluesky, is full of bootlickers who will do anything to avoid doing anything to upset the status quo. These people are cowards groveling to those in power in hopes of protection. I just hope people continue to show love and care and kindness. Mutual aid is so important. Give when you can, boost when you can. We only survive this together.

To be fair, not so much lately lol

My experience of the Seattle "DIY" music scene in a nutshell:

Gillian Brockell @gbrockell.bsky.social · 3d

They tried to kill this woman because she annoyed them and they are charging because she lived. Her being alive is an assault on them.

Perhaps I have overestimated the degree to which Microsoft would deliberately confound users' attempts to circumvent these features, sounds like me tbh

miss Mira, Slut Shaman @missmira2u.bsky.social · 3d

I mean besides the obvious moral issues aren't they running into technical problems trying to use their site in a way it was purportedly designed to prevent??

miss Mira, Slut Shaman @missmira2u.bsky.social · 3d

May I ask which AI nonsense you're left dealing with? If it's just like, a weather widget or something that's probably fine but we're a medical practice and I really don't want any of the confidential info we deal with getting mixed up in it

miss Mira, Slut Shaman @missmira2u.bsky.social · 3d

I'm no expert or anything but it's amazing what a bad job @jay.bsky.team and co are doing right now

Like even if I imagine myself sharing their putative aims, they're not acting as tho they have any actual understanding of how information travels on this platform

Yeah I mean it sounds to me more like an idea for a band than a band, the most interesting parts about it have more to do with the affectations than the ideas. It's like Ava Luna without all the stuff I found inspiring about them

miss Mira, Slut Shaman @missmira2u.bsky.social · 3d

I listened to the Geese record and it's fine but it sounds like basically every other indie rock record I've heard out of Brooklyn in the last fifteen years, which is to say an orgy I wasn't cool enough to get invited to

This has gotten me more interested in listening to geese than any review I've read

Boss wants me to help her upgrade to Windows 11. I don't want to do it, for the obvious AI integration reasons, but moreso because when AI falls apart it'll cripple her ability to do ordinary things on her computer and thus ruin her whole practice. But I don't know how realistic that fear is.

Worth noting that I have felt no less than gripped by terror at every moment of the last few weeks and that has got to be affecting my judgment and behavior
