Tell me your bagel order and I will tell you *based on NYC cultural expectations* if you have won or lost your election for political office in NYC.

One of my favorite things about NYC is whenever anyone runs for office here they are required to disclose their bagel order.

I don’t think we’re talking enough about the fact that we successfully took back the frog. Like it has been a meme for the alt right for years now, and thanks to these Portland inflatable costumes, we’re taking it back

That's very kind of you! But until this week the worst problem it's caused me is with bars that only post their menus etc. on Instagram 🙄

Don't know about other people, but I nuked my Meta accounts from orbit about a year ago and now I can't make a new one. I tried today! Specifically for more info on Protect RP! And my new account was "suspended for review" as soon as I clicked the signup button, and then permanently disabled.

Info on either site is genuinely inaccessible to me, is my point. It's not just about clinging to principle at the expense of practical need.

this is so good. throw em some bones if you can. (the goal is to buy street vendors out of their merch so they can still support themselves but not have to be out on the streets where they’re vulnerable.)

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

i was a pretty champion bullshitter, but my first year of undergrad i had to take a full year of something called "media aesthetics" and i was so far underwater that by the end of the year (and to this day) i still didn't know what media aesthetics was. my bullshitting powers did NOT save me there

RIP actor & Chicago native Ron Dean.

He interrogated Dr. Richard Kimble in THE FUGITIVE, he dropped Andy off at detention in THE BREAKFAST CLUB, he was shot by Harvey Dent in THE DARK KNIGHT, he was Marty Crane's poker buddy on FRASIER, and so much more.

people kept asking me during my runs "ok so what's Hinako guilty about why are the horrors happening" and this is SH2 fandom-brain and not how SH really works.

Hinako is not guilty about Shit, she's scared but also *angry* about stuff, that's why F is a more visceral action game.
