who!

women's downhill vision impaired alpine skiing. two women are skiing down the course - the athlete is in the back, and the person in front is their guide.

okay I know everyone loved the decaf olympics, but now it's finally time for the real stuff (NEAR TOTAL BLINDNESS ALPINE SKIING)

Prognosis is still about the same, but there’s just more dread now 🙃

I’m 95% sure they’re younger than me! We could all just be Bad at Viet (or that we just speak varying forms of diasporic Viet)

Tfw you’re Viet, getting your nails done at a Viet nail salon but you can’t understand their Vietnamese and you’re not sure if it’s bc you’re rusty, if it’s bc they are rusty (they’re talking to family),
or if it’s a Dialect Thing

Dracula adaptation, set primarily in London, Ohio. Dracula lives in a castle that’s alway described as “just across the boarder” or “a hour east of Youngstown,” or maybe even just “it’s in Pittsburgh.,” but the pun is never spoken.

oh when they said death to capitalism they meant that shit! iktr!!!

Ahhhhh yeah that absolutely makes sense

It’s not your fault that they keep on casting hot people as dads and grandfathers

Ofc for v different reasons it’s solidarity w all Asian ethnicities here in N America once white supremacist bullshit comes up

Every Viet town has streets named after people who have led battles of independence from the Chinese (and the French, but that’s just a blip) 🤷🏻‍♀️

I have a thing w some Chinese-associated things for the similar reasons (2k years of fighting) and it’s funny how uneven it is. I would love to go visit! I love the Untamed! But I am never enrolling my kid into Chinese language immersion courses & god help you if you’re white and assume I’m Chinese

Me: "Are you aware of the intersection of Taco Bell and Literature?"

Writer: "Yes, I met you in Seattle, you offered me drugs, and you were the first person I told I was pregnant."

Universal Basic Income would be nice.
But what about Universal Basic Mossy Haunted Cottage By The Lake, and shelves overflowing with books, exotic teas, and curious bones collected from the forest?

US folks who work in political/civic engagement movement spaces: how are funders responding to this political moment?

Are they doing the "redirect all of our funds to X embattled place" thing? Or the "we're shutting down for 6 months to rewrite our mission" thing?

I was wrong!

No, salad doesn’t have skin!

It’s ✨rare✨, like 3% of all of this type of tumor

Thank you! It is weird bc part of me feels like I shouldn’t be upset bc I don’t have symptoms, which is asinine and yet

I actually lol’ed at this, ty!

Also I feel like I should be able to get away w petty crimes now and use the “rare kidney cancer” thing as an excuse

Thank you! I’m kind of still processing everything by thinking about silly things like “hey I did this stuff… *with cancer*!”

I had already come to terms w joining the One Kidney club and now I’m learning I’m part of a wholly different one too

The biggest jerk!

Whoops, I was wrong, it is cancer but a very rare and v likely a self-contained one. Prognosis and treatment is still the same, just greater psychological burden

That one! I was trying to quietly get an extra shot halfway through the year

Guinness Zero is shockingly and thankfully very good!!

In an ideal world, they would do this on top of everything else

The thing that fucked me up about these closings is that the actual locations closed much after the announcements. Like I was still getting Covid shots from the rite aid by the city line on York

Honestly most big cities have a redevelopment authority of some kind but they do not do this and I will not say publicly my concerns with Baltimore’s

All of them are so maddening!

T and I have joked about seeing our favorite gym could open up a second location at the aforementioned former Rite Aid
