Sometimes I listen to a horror or a mystery & get scared & have to sit down for a bit so nothing can get me 👀

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

How @caeliniscreepy.bsky.social and I play Harvest by @keymastergames.bsky.social:

🧑‍🌾 Caelin: tralala I think I'll go pick up some 🍓 and 🫐 at the General Store teehehe and that's my turn 💁‍♀️

😤 Me: *very stressed* if I don't find a way to optimize this turn with maximum efficiency I MIGHT JUST DIE 💀

Spotted in a workplace break room. The notes are heaven.

A printed out picture of a group of Star Wars stormtroopers in white outfits. Text says "stormtroopers after a fun day of paintball." A note in pencil underneath says "if it was AFTER a day of paintball, then why aren't they covered in paint? Did they play paintball & never hit each other? Not even ONCE? Is that the joke?" In the bottom right corner someone has written in red pen "YES!!"

Finally using the mubi subscription I forgot I had. Inspector Ike is a gem!

Theme of the week: I'd rather watch a film about women where not much happens than a movie about a man where too much happens (to women specifically... & octopuses).

Gotta say, I admire this move. Now is the time for unpopular takes to sneak into the timeline unnoticed.

Okay, not the exact thing, but a book that happens to be on my desk right now (because I think it's cool): Atlas of Prehistoric Animals by Radek Malý/Petr Modlitba. Situates animals in time from the Cambrian to the Holocene. Some fossil talk but it's not the main focus.

A page from the Atlas of Prehistoric Animals featuring peregocetus pacificus, which looks like a big otter/crocodile hybrid. There's a painting of it standing on a rock in the ocean.

Colman Domingo is the number one actor most likely to make me watch a film. If Colman Domingo is in it, even if I previously had no interest in seeing that movie... I'm going to see that movie now. He's just so good!

Sometimes when I am at the gym I become afraid that somehow, the music I am listening to will find its way onto the main room speaker & everyone will know that when I run fast, I'm listening to the Powerpuff Girls Theme, Ev'rybody Wants to Be a Cat, & Shiver My Timbers from Muppet Treasure Island.

Florida Decided There Were Too Many Children

The state’s elimination of vaccine mandates is a courageous first step toward decluttering itself of any excess kids.
