“I am, as you say, relentlessly cheerful because it’s the best fuck you I can think of to this terrible world.” - Senior Chief Petty Officer Jenks Khan, from “And the Mighty Will Fall” Thank you @kbwagers.com for another joyful read, and the perfect encapsulation of feels I’m holding close today❤️

Autocorrect just recommended "opaquer" in lieu of "more opaque". Come on, son. No.

Been working for Boston University for over 3 years now and still can't spell "Massachusetts" correctly without autocorrect.

awwwooooooo🐺🚨

Looking extremely, and in absolutely petty fashion, forward to making some Fever fans pay an absolute premium on our Lynx season tix up for sale for tomorrow's game.

@codecrafty.bsky.social Thank you friend! 🙏🏻💪🏼

hey frens I'm fundraising for trans+ folx here in Minneapolis as part of the Drop Deadlift Gorgeous event in Oct at the awesomely aggressively queer+trans+all-bodies-belong-in-sport gym solcanafitness.com. Sponsor me deadlifting in support of trans communities & rights givebutter.com/DDG2026/tara...

srsly the only thing that makes my moon captures just now 1/2 nice is that it’s over Lake Superior. Lake Superior? Gorgeous! Moon? Small hazy dot!

just getting to the 00’s era of CCM/white evangelical culture goings-on and I told @snipy.bsky.social what it grew into was barely recognizable from the already-ick I’d left behind, like I’d left something already horrendous in the fridge for years and it emerged somehow more + unrecognizably worse

I’m an exvangelical who ditched Christianity/contemporary Christian music in abt 1998, currently reading “God Gave Rock & Roll to You - a History of Contemporary Christian Music” by Leah Payne…

I WAS TOLD THERE WOULD BE RADICAL TRANSPARENCY!!!!

Hi! My name is tiny wad of paper that ended up in the plastic casing of someone’s inhaler so when they took a hearty inhaler slug during a bout of asthma I was whooshed into their lung!

I’ve carried Childhood Trauma™️ about Watership Down for my entire life, though the specifics of exactly why were faded by the mists of time, could only remember crying watching it as a child. So I saw a performance of it at the MN Fringe tonight, cried my face off and I’m now a Watership Down stan.

Got new menus printed with a couple new specials

Minneapolis Public Schools is looking for bicycle mechanics (or even just enthusiastic volunteers) to help tune up the district's fleet so that they are ready for 4th/5th grade bike education this fall! Drop-in sessions are open from August 10-19, basically all day. Sign up here: bit.ly/mpsbike

Where my MN Fringe folks at???

Ope there it is! Awooooo!

whaaaaa? No awoooo in North Minneapolis today????

Got confused between NNO and NaNoWriMo and ended up writing a 300-page historic fiction between bites of Linda’s pasta salad and complimenting Scott on his new fence.

This week in crone-ism (not to be confused w/cronyism): learned I've aged into "sorry you can't get in to see that OB/GYN for a breast lump assessment because you're too old" (i.e. > 50, even tho still bleeding). It's not history's greatest outrage, way worse BS happening in healthcare but for real?

There’s a queen (Saltina Shaker) on Canada’s Drag Race S6 who out of drag is totally giving Joe Elliot from Def Leppard and I’m obsessed. Am I thinking it’s time for a shag mullet in my life? 💯YES.

Olivia damn Miles! Let's go Lynx! 🏀 #WNBA

fitting that the team with the fifth best record is attracting Riley Gaines

riley gaines is at the minnesota lynx vs indiana fever game posing with people courtside as they line up for photos

Sometimes you need to bring your soccer gear to a Lynx game.

Standing next to Fever fans at this Lynx game and this is 💯 the case.

guys…Im pretty sure Miles has broken physics.

I wish Iowa and Indiana were further from Minnesota.

Tom Emmer did this

Cheryl Reeve’s shirt today:

Rocking some new, deliciously trans colored bike shoes to the Lynx game.

knowing ahead of time that Reacher is about a really large man who appears to have grown his muscles exclusively for the purposes of respecting women did not even slightly prepare me for how large he is or how much he respects women
