My god the amount of time I waste trying to figure out if my new followers are human. Apologies to every handsome middle aged retired surgeon with a beard who loves his grandkids and God who I have ever blocked.

Some of you may be wondering about the glamorous lifestyle associated with the architectural work I do.

Well, I can now share some of that with you. I get this sort of ad for reference material on my Instagram feed.
(It is a genuine ad.)

When I was googling “Boris Karloff’s Spicy Guacamole”, I had no idea what I would find…

priscilla page @priscillapage.bsky.social · 1d

have been desperately looking for this old erotic Spanish comic I stumbled on almost 10 years ago called "El secreto de Frankenstein" and I'm so happy to report I finally found it

black & white comic panel depicting a sexy, thicc Frankenstein's monster disrobing in 3 different poses - pulling his shirt of his shoulder, seen at an angle; from the front, shirtless, beginning to take his pants off; then almost totally nude as seen from behind. the words at the top read "Strip-tease de Frankenstein..."

I don’t know how it is, but people like to be private when they are sleeping.

Gonna be intriguing to hear about through the grapevine.

Will I get likes if I manage to film my own quite shy groundhog who live not fifteen feet out my back door?

Maybe quantum pop culture entanglement?

If NYT can't *plausibly* use both-sidesism to write about current events or politics, say in IL & OR, they just refrain entirely and revert back to showing us $5mil properties in the Hudson Valley.
