please reply to this with a noun or a list of nouns. it’s for a project that i will reveal later.

I really need to stop asking questions on the internet. People are always in such a rush to tell me the top Google result that they fully skip the part where I spell out the specific thing I’m looking for and include all of the info I already have that I do not want or need.

Let’s all start acting like people here on bee sky dot app have brains and only crowdsource info because they already checked the rest of the internet and didn’t find an answer.

Things I wish candidates would run on: getting the FCC to actually enforce the TCPA and CAN-SPAM, crack down on robocalls, do whatever needs to be done to make the Do Not Call Registry work, and create a Do Not Text Registry.

Political fundraising emails and text messages are off-the-charts pathetic and insulting. Anyone running for any office should take a long, hard look in the mirror before they sign up for one of those embarrassing ass firms because they literally make you dislike the candidate more with every one.

Obviously we have some very gigantic issues we need to work on, but imagine how much better life would be without the constant annoyance of all the calls and text messages that don’t fit the legal definition of spam.

I’m looking for a small party/event venue that is not a bar, brewery, or restaurant and allows outside food and alcohol. Rec centers & other city-owned properties are not an option. Basically somewhere just like Art House North, but with openings on their calendar.

I’ve been trying to find something like this for a few years but haven’t had any luck. I’ve already looked into all the places on Reddit, in search results, Peerspace, and all the obvious places. At this point I’m wondering if there’s just some category of locations that I haven’t thought of.

I hope Cheesecake Factory comes out with a statement like "We must clarify we did NOT allow Saddam Hussein to design our chandeliers and he had virtually no input into our menu" and then we can ride this through Monday

This year's Most Unhinged Birthday Marketing Email Award goes to the pharmacy I went to exactly one time. I didn't read the email, but the preview made it clear there was some kind of coupon inside.

The cats have really fucked up both my sleep schedule and my ability to sleep. If we ignore that and all the added stress from them attempting to murder each other, my bday was decent. Here’s to year 38.

Also if you need pumpkins, get them from the folks by the Snelling Water Tower. They’re my in-laws. You can tell them you know Amber, but do not mention any part of my internet presence.

Double tapped the AI-generated bday image my dad’s twin sister sent me on Facebook Messenger instead of lecturing her about how fucking stupid AI is. I wonder what other fun new skills I gained when I evolved to my late-30s form!

You are legally required to be nice to me today because it’s my 37th birthday, I’ve been awake (against my will) since about 4:00, and I will be spending the day trying to keep my cats from murdering each other.

Welp, I’m officially in my late 30s now.

This stuff with the cats is super fucking stressful and I am very much looking forward to seeing friends and talking about You Can See Everything tonight. If you know me in person or we’re mutuals enough that you don’t feel weird about joining, DM me for party deets. There will be cake.

Good thing Ferd’s going to the vet on Monday so they can tell me why he’s being a huge asshole all of a sudden. I expect this behavior from cats when they’re toddlers—not immediately after they turn 5 😾😾😾😾

The Original Pancake House (Roseville) 🧻 clearly the first pancake The handfeel was terrible. Like really, truly awful. It was quite hefty—which is a problem because it was difficult to tear—and the plies came apart easily. It was absorbent enough. But the handfeel was so bad. So very, very, bad.

The military being more supportive of trans people than the @dfl.org and the entire Democratic Party was not on my BINGO card.

Woah - boards of service in the Marines and the Navy are ignoring Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth's order to purge transgender troops from the military. "Navy and Marine Corps boards have voted to retain trans members in nine of 12 cases." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

At the Fair we don’t get artists’ statements. MIA gives us a chance to learn how the artists think about their work. These two really got me. (90,000 quinoa seeds!)
