i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

apparently i am just going to spend the day torturing myself looking at bakesy-esque sites and considering how i'd set up and try to run a home bakery THIS TIME like are you not tired of failure, self? (tho i've only failed at selling online twice so far...)

my tri-annual "but what if i tried harder to make baking work?" mood is in full swing and not listening to me telling it i've already tried and failed dozens of times and a successful attempt will not happen during the worst cost of living crisis in my lifetime or at all, most likely...

truly, i am perpetuating my own melancholy thinking about these things instead of doing anything productive, but it's such a bad pain day that i can't even rally to acquire butter, proving my own fatalism is probably just being realistic.

there's doomerism and hopecore, but what do i call "i feel completely doomed on a personal level but do believe things can improve for other people"? i know what this means for me on an aesthetic/vibe level (vantablack dark humor and 'i'm fine [trashfire]' novelty shirts) not a philosophical one.

i want to bake but i'm nearly out of butter i could fix that problem and acquire butter and some other ingredients i'm lacking to bake the particular things i want! but then once i bake i have a new problem of 'who can i feed this to?' lest things get wasted hmmmm

or just to acquire a monetizeable skill that isn't already oversaturated, sigh reality has set in and this is a pipe dream; i will never be able to produce enough baked goods that it's financially survive anyway if wishes were fishes maybe my body wouldn't be a lemon i am VERY depressed, ugh

the last cookies i made were really good tho... spiced maple pumpkin 🫠 i don't know why i can't succeed at anything lol i swear i'm good at things or else everyone i know is outright lying to my face but for some reason nothing ever works out

every now and then i wonder if i should relaunch my bake-to-order site but there's so much competition and i can't self promote (genuinely, it is a problem, and probably at least part of why i'm such a failure) so it'd be just doomed to fail again in the current landscape i need like... local etsy

it'd be fun if i made like a kofi and asked people to donate towards my butter fund, for baking ingredients so i can afford to make things and just put them into community fridges and pantries as treats instead of wasting effort and funds doing markets but like that's not gonna happen lol

this is just me feeling shitty that i failed at markets and only ever lost money on trying to make baking happen, i think my rescue is hosting a bake sale fundraiser this weekend but i guess it was pros only and i'm not a pro at anything so no thanks nobody wants your stuff as usual, ana blah

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...

nytimes.comMilitary Boards Are Defying Orders and Letting Trans Troops Serve (Gift Article)The service members at Navy and Marine Corps hearings are finding ways to keep trans troops in uniform.

gifting babies an investment portfolio proves that this billionaire-backed nepo filled administration does not understand the american dream whatsoever they're the kind of people who killed the american dream i was taught by the immigrants who raised me: work hard, do good work, and you'll succeed

me: collapses from panic when trying to present extemp when pressured into speech and debate before anyone realized i had debilitating performance anxiety (i was asked to reconsider my participation after 3 meets) also me: sure i can fully improv this d&d session i had 2 wks to plan for but didn't

I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee). But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention.

Donald Trump set another record. There’s NEVER been an election (since polling began in the United States) where voters said “corruption” was their top worry. Until now.

the perimenopausal "you will wake up at 4am every single day so drenched in sweat you'll need to get out of bed and change your clothes and the sheets both" is already fucking old lemme tell ya

if everyone hates me that means it'll be a good thing when i'm gone, right? that's logical. bright side it's real easy to make people hate you, i've never even had to try. just happens when you suck.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

so many people in my life have asked me if i've considered a glp1, or straight up told me i should get on one. so. fucking. many.

Fellow fat people/people who wear plus sizes: how is the skinnypocalypse showing up in your own life, outside of media? What kinds of changes have you noticed in body politics in your own friends/family/coworkers/neighbors/self?

If I built an AI lab and it went rogue and deleted all student loan information, I'm betting they'd suddenly figure out how to prosecute me.

Its kinda wild seeing corporate management just obliterating the gates that keep them relevant ; namely the assurance that customers are getting quality products made with all the resources and institutional knowledge a corporation entails

WIRED@wired.com

More than two dozen workers at three major publishing houses—HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, and Hachette—tell WIRED that LLMs are being used for publicity, cover art, back cover copy, and emails, as some execs push junior staff to champion the tech. Read the full story: buff.ly/p0ymGmN

NEW: When Christa Pike became the first person to survive multiple lethal injections, witnesses at the prison that day suddenly became a part of history. I spoke with @iamstevenhale.bsky.social of Nashville Banner about the things he saw in the execution chamber—and the things he could only hear:

The reason people love the Ea-nāṣir story is less the vitriol and more the fact that we couldn’t be more culturally different from a 4000 years dead Sumerian but we can totally relate. It shows us that no matter our superficial differences people are just people.

hey brain? why can't i just be happy for people? why must i also fight a wave of self loathing and worthlessness? yeah i've failed at everything i ever tried and am broke and lonely and barely functional most days but this is someone else's thing so it pisses me off my brain's like &YOU'LL NEVER~!

you say "ana don't eat that" i say worst case i'm fortifying myself for the downfall of society by diversifying my microbiome ✨positive thinking✨
