We made it 92 weeks, you guys!

CW: rape Some time last year I encountered a perspective on rape that was new to me: it’s attempted murder using sex as the weapon. If you also hadn’t thought of it that way before, now you have.

I am finally managing to watch The West Wing after bouncing off it for a quarter century, I think because I can now just treat it like fanciful historical fiction. Like Casablanca. Or Hamilton. Or Oh Mary.

Just needs a bowl of chili to go with it

Since I started watching any English language season of The Traitors, I’ve always wondered “what would happen if someone [redacted]” and thanks to Richard E. Grant, now I know.

Costume idea: Elizabeth Sherlock Holmes

Putin is the fucken worst

Why even have an auto-complete feature if it doesn’t know the most famous phrase in all of English poetry?

Um. Uh. On Apple Music, the track “Poor Jack” from The Nightmare Before Christmas is a different performance. Now I have to get the CD from eBay and fix it. 🙄

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve ordered the Death by Chocolate and it never fuckin‘ worked

It only took 12 years but I've finally gotten around to playing the Telltale Games Back to the Future series. It's delightful and great fun.

Thank the maker that the new Traitors US has randos and one woman I recognize from TikTok. They’re always so much more fun than the melodramatic reality tv people.

I kinda miss degaussing the monitor. And defragging the hard drive.

These rooms are air conditioned but it is still one hundred and four degrees inside my shirt.

I dunno. Maybe he needs one more pillow?

Ride or Die / Slow Horses crossover when?? h/t @lynnever.bsky.social

It’s August, how the hell did that happen?!

Anybody else notice that they made a new season of the Muppet Show with Sabrina Carpenter as the guest, and then they forgot to make more episodes?

This is the time of year when the insects get very bitey. The know their time is coming to an end and they get vicious. Be sure to register and vote in the midterms.

Oh hey. 9 days until new Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and 21 days until Traitors Australia.

Ryan Seacrest seems like if Carson Daly was only partially dissociating. #disneycelebratesamerica

If they could postpone the Tokyo 2020 Olympics for a year but then still call it Tokyo 2020, I don’t see why we can’t re-do America 250 later on when the president isn’t quite so embarrassing.

This is Penny. She came up with her own trick. Really hopes you like it, and will repeat it as many times as necessary until you acknowledge that you do. 14/10 (IG: pennycorgipoo)

I got to drive to the dump today! #Microblogging

Social media is totally pleasant, so long as you are a cis het white American man and not popular.

You can buy two eero mesh network puck things for the same price as the springboard modem module cost when it was released for the Handspring Visor. There’s no point to this post.

@jayfrosting.net Oh piece of candy! Oh piece of candy! Oh piece of candy! Oh piece of candy!

100% If you're still on Twitter, this is what you're enabling.

Aha. I see my reason for hating the president today is once again that he insists election results should be available the same day. Me, I think they should always be a secret for two weeks.

I might be a little late to the party but have you seen this thing on YouTube called Smosh? Funny group of kids over there!

Welp. The first time my new neighbor saw me, I was wielding a hatchet. That’s probably fine.

LOIS: What does the S stand for? *CLARK SHREDS A GUITAR SOLO* LOIS: Sick.

!! The new host of Traitors NZ is Madeline Sami!!

85 degrees?! Get outta here, 85 degrees.

It's shouldn't be shocking that people who are in their 80s and refuse to retire out of the film industry making space for a younger generation, much less open the doors for them, feel no resistance to embracing generative AI as they become creatively bankrupt ladder pullers.

"stir fries are so quick and easy" I just used every bowl and ramekin in my house and my smoke detector is going off

every billionaire is a social and policy failure. tax them until they aren't billionaires any more. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

There’s a horror story about where I grew up in New Jersey? Yeah no that tracks.

My last name is Frosting, but Jane is right.

I should be able to set the size of the bottom margin of a paragraph in my journaling app. Lazy-ass developers.

hot take but reading something in the matrix isn’t actually reading. reading is squinting through the ash cloud darkness at a scrap of paper from before the human-machine war. you can hack the entire project gutenberg library into your wetware if you want, you’re still illiterate

I assumed Threads shut down within the first week.
