What plant is that on the dish? I don’t recognize it

Oh, nice! I have a stack of the fuel pellet cards at work too, some of which are from ANS. It’s cool to see an older version of them!

And a much fancier version too!

And how much more did the new tickets cost?
nuclearanna.bsky.social
No worries! I’ll just have to try to make it or look up places myself :)

Me: “I should proofread before hitting post”

Me, about once a week: “I should most more nuclear stuff on here”

Me, 5 minutes later: “HEY EVERYONE YOU NEED TO SEE THIS COOL BIRD”

I only found out bc I was listening to cardinal calls on Merlin (which is, of course, a very normal thing one does) and there were different recordings for long-crested northern cardinals at the bottom. So of course I had to look them up :)

Oh. I was kinda frustrated last night and didn’t expect such a reasonable response. Thanks

You didn’t even give enough of a shit about her to figure out the context before posting
nuclearanna.bsky.social
You reposted a photo of a real woman actively dying you think that’s fine? You think that’s a defense? It’s not! Have you become so desensitized to violence?

You and Vance are both using this woman’s gruesome murder to make some bullshit point.

Any recommendations for restaurants with it? I’d like to try it

Tbf, worrying that people won’t like your answer and then blurting out something worse is probably the most believable and relatable part of this story.

But, yeah, there’s also a way to do it right. It usually starts with having a point or artistic vision beyond subversion for its own sake.

I haven’t seen much x-files, so I know nothing about this episode, but get what you mean about subverting tropes.

There’s too much winking at the audience, “do you see what we did there” in a lot of this meta trope stuff nowadays. It’s so annoying.

I love a good buffalo chicken mac with real cheese, but the boxed stuff is comfort food in a way the nicer stuff isn’t for me.

I think Annie’s shells and white cheddar has a distinct cardboard taste and I like it

I know other people like it too, but if it doesn’t taste like cardboard to them, we’re not the same

I realize it would be terribly impractical and I’d actually hate it, but I wish this was one solid block of butter instead of 4 smaller bricks

You used to have to go to liveleak to see that shit and people would rightfully react with revulsion if you admitted to viewing it.
nuclearanna.bsky.social
Yeah, even if it’s not meant as a threat, posting stills from a snuff video is fucked up.

It’s mind breaking how videos of murder are now acceptable on social media. And I know a still isn’t all that, but we’ve become way too damn comfortable with it.
nuclearanna.bsky.social
Yeah, I was hoping for this too :(

Attending a whittling class, probably.
