horror movies are a reflection of our times, like how swimfan captured and defined the early 2000s public paranoia about swimfans

A couple of our friends have started dating recently, after months of speculating about feelings (between Noel and I + with one of them). I share a Japanese tutor with one of them and, for a hot second, accidentally made the tutor think the folks had been secretly dating for months.

Gonna go a slightly different direction here: If a fat person calls themselves fat in an objective/neutral/non-derogatory way - don't go "but you're not fat!" "Don't say that!" It takes a lot of work sometimes to love yourself in/with that label. Don't derail someone's work by "helping".

Fellow fat people/people who wear plus sizes: what would real solidarity from your thinner friends & family look like for you? (Once again, asking thin & midsize people to sit this one out & just listen. Take notes & take action!)

The last half of this quote wasn't circulating nearly as much yesterday, but it's actually the clincher. God bless this brilliant, gifted, absolutely deranged man.

None of them are as cute and perfect as the Penguin was. A is cute but boring. C is strange but not strange enough that I think it'll take off. B is just....I don't even know, y'all.

JR East put its next Suica mascot to a public vote, and the announcement drew more than 134 million views in 48 hours. Three characters are competing to replace the Suica Penguin, which is being retired in March 2027 after 25 years.

Northwest Apple evens REFUSE to list the varieties they’ll have!!?? “We’ll have 15 varieties of apple! 🍎😃” WHICH ONES!? Tell me the varieties COWARD Is it worth my time? Do you have RARE APPLES!? PROBABLY NOT BUT WHO KNOWS

Look, usually I am 1000% happy about going to Pride stuff with straight folks but, Straight Friends in the group chat, I did not actually invite you. I just said *I* was thinking about going. I get to do so little queer culture stuff here. I'm not sure I want to be your first Pride Guide this year.

I don't know this song or this artist and watched it with the sound off....and it's still incredible. Whoever choreographed this and whoever did the lighting (& projections) design are mad geniuses.

Gonna try keeping my ControlR posts spoiler free and with the proper amount of crop-toppage

I feel like everyone is ignoring the really distressing part of the question: "...as fussy as reminding a lady to wear pantyhose or a gentleman to ask before lighting a cigarette?" WHAT DECADE IS IT?!?!

Slightly underrated as a major moment in American TV history.

On this day in 2001, Cartoon Network's nighttime programming block Adult Swim has launched. Happy 25th Anniversary!!! That is my favorite nighttime block on Cartoon Network!

Just got outta the TERMINATOR 2: JUDGEMENT DAY 35th anniversary rerelease and Jesus Christ, man. What a movie. They had to do all that shit for real. They had to fly that helicopter under an overpass. They had to blow up that building. They had to find an actor who could turn into liquid metal.

This is the only time I've actually, really wished I was back in the States. I bet the Men's Chorus is gonna break out their Dolly show. I wanna have a tight-skirts-tits-out karaoke bar night.

Mountain Big vs Mountain Haunted

Kingfisher & Wombat@tkingfisher.com

I was literally JUST doing a talk about this with @mcmanlypants.bsky.social an hour ago! The thing is that the Rockies are so much bigger than you that they don’t notice if you exist. But the Appalachians are so much older than you that if they notice you, bad shit’s about to go down.
