A MAN recently told me that he believes our athletes should be required to disclose if they plan to become pregnant in the first 3 years of their professional contract. I was not amused and did not shut up about it for the rest of the night!

Talking to a non-soccer friend:

Me: Yeah, we went to the match last night. It was another draw.

Her: Wow! Last time I talked to you the Timbers had a draw. I didn't know those were so common!

Me: ...yea...

Petition for us all to sing a couple minutes of "War" by Edwin Star during the match tonight. As a Treat.

I think it's important to remember that he's been sacked multiple times for wasting money on drunken parties that were labeled as "meetings" or "retreats" so this honestly tracks in a very real way.

Lol no, unfortunately. There was also no atonal shrieking.

Got to see the Bastards pod recorded live last night at Alberta Rose. I learned and laughed a lot thanks to @iwriteok.bsky.social @prophiphop.bsky.social @whysophiewhy.bsky.social @coolzonemedia.bsky.social

one thing that is true for everyone reading this: unless something changes dramatically the number of people who agree with you on what basic facts constitute "reality" will shrink every year for the rest of your life

‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms.

‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms.

But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.

Last time I had my doctor write a physical prescription - full-on pen-to-paper pad with her letterhead - saying I need the covid vaccine due to chronic illness. It shouldn't be this hard.

Oh boy..I can't WAIT to have to deal with this nonsense. I will cause a SCENE.

Y'know what? I just don't think I should have to cry and plead and beg for the insurance that I pay for to cover my asthma medication literally every single time I need to refill it. I don't think that is such a high demand.

Amber High @the1abner.bsky.social · Sep 3

I don't know which is harder/more complicated: trying to get an appointment with a psychiatrist or registering my car with the state of Oregon. I'm really not sure which process is more cumbersome at this point.
