About 20 years ago when I started hunting/collecting vintage & antiques I found an old pin that said KILL A COMMIE FOR CHRIST. I was amazed that somebody wore this thing, authentically. It seemed so far away. Ancient history. And now, here I am two decades later seeing it in the flesh. It's surreal.

The best part about closed caption (besides understanding what they're saying) is that it shows the name of the artist and title of the song as soon as it starts playing so I don't have to obsess on that. Also shoutout to Netflix for their beautiful captioning, really setting the standard over there

Market Day, covering the 70s, 80s and 90s captures the lively, chaotic energy of London’s Sunday markets, showcasing a contrast between vibrant market activity and the rundown, pre-gentrification East End.

You superior intellectuals can make fun of my reality show watching all you want, but I get so much writing inspiration from it. Not even kidding.

I made too much slaw for fish tacos and I refuse to let it go bad because I have converted to a life of frugality when it comes to food so I have been eating fish tacos morning, noon, and night for days. Not sick of them yet. Maybe I should start doing this, just cycle every 4-7 days, same meal 24/7

Because they are consumed with the whimsical witchy aesthetic and 70s hair. I wish it were deeper than that but it's just the curtain bangs and a need to be seen as an alt hippy who goes against the grain. Algorithms have turned them into trend sluts with no actual identity (sorry for my pessimism)

I’ve read Kim Kelly’s work on labor for years. She’s treated her readers, teenagers and professors, with respect, while breaking it all down so it made sense. Thank you. A travesty to end the very thing, writing on politics and labor, that set Teen Vogue apart from all the others.
“Since 2018, labor columnist Kim Kelly brought the labor beat to teenage readers through her “No Class” column, covering everything from wildcat strikes to general strikes, the Gilded Age labor organizer Mother Jones to contemporary Amazon warehouse conditions.” 💔 thisislaborwise.com/teen-vogues-...
Teen Vogue's Closure and the Quiet Defunding of Worker Consciousness
Teen Vogue’s shutdown marks more than a media loss. This is a warning about how profit-driven consolidation quietly dismantles worker awareness and voice.

Ponder of the day, I wonder how much of an impact Shrek had on Smash Mouth's success. I still have those songs stuck in my head 25 years later. My son was at the right age for Shrek obsession though, so maybe I was simply one of the infected. Yes I meant to say infected, not affected. It's a disease

Binged All Her Fault on Peacock. I'll watch anything Sarah Snook is in (Shiv from Succession). I liked it a lot but more than anything I loved the fact that so many women were at the helm, from the author of the book they adapted to the producers, director, writer, etc. It's noticeable and rare.

People on here complained about a lack of moderation for months and wanted bad guys booted off the platform. Now it looks like the tables have turned and people are outraged at the automoderator for hiding vile content I guess because they want to be able to publicly shame their enemies or something

My flavor of nerd is: Spreadsheet of music containing various columns with titles like "Style" and "Features" and "Makes Me Think Of" and "Feeling" and that contains dropdown menus including things like "Cartoonish or Circus-like," "Jangle Pop," "Expressive Female Vocals," and "Plucky Strings"

Milk gives me the farts. I'm not sure if this has always been the case and I didn't notice or if it's just because I'm 40 and my body is in its falling apart era but I will not stop drinking it unless it reaches the point of pants-shitting and even then I'll probably find a way to continue the habit
