townspeople building a wooden playground in New Hampshire

You’ve unlocked a memory for me. I think my hometown had one of these? But the only photo I could find of it being built in the early 90s was this “community construction”

my home didn't burn down but my anxiety always spikes now on really windy days

$8.21 gas at the alameda st chevron in downtown Los Angeles

someone on Reddit got a picture. I think this is the highest I’ve ever seen it

Happy birthday!!

It’s a bit of a tired joke to be like “I thought this was The Onion” but legit… I thought this was The Onion.

It’s a bad gas price indicator generally but the infamous Alameda St Chevron near Union Station has $8 gas again

I treasure the stickers I bought from her before she left 😭

Feeling feelings that cannot be fixed by logging off

there is a train station named after my direct ancestor

The problem with the anti-anti-LLM thing is that it treats this topic as some kind of abstract debate-club style exercise, but it's not. The LLM hype is not just annoying, it is part of a now years-long political and economic assault on humanity itself by a handful of megacorps run by robber barons.

Ah! Have a great time. I wish I didn’t have so much going on that day.

I think that’s right. I’ve lived here since 2014 so this is really only my second time choosing and I remember feeling the same way in 2018. The scale of a statewide campaign is daunting

Three months out from the primary and I am once again feeling dismay about my choices for California Governor. How does this happen, why are our politics so cursed.

And now I’m starting my master’s program

Seth Meyers, late night host and person who graduated from the same high school as me, did a joke about Metro and our “Ride the D” shirts… extremely surreal for me specifically.

Contributor: Don't blame the boomers for millennials' struggles Perhaps young adults need to do as the boomers did: Get real and work harder. By Joel Kotkin Contributing writer Feb. 26, 2026 3 AM PT

I won’t link to the piece but I get the feeling that Kotkin wrote it 10 years ago and forgot to hit send

Joel Kotkin (uh oh) I am thirty six years old. But maybe you don’t think I’m a real adult because I believe in things like public transit :(

Rather than blame the boomers, perhaps young adults need to do as the boomers did: Get real and work harder. Right now millennials are not impressing employers, notes the Harvard Business Review.

Opinion writers knowing how old millennials are challenge level: impossible

Cradling the AO3 servers in my palm like a baby bird and singing them lullabies

Everyone should read Wild Faith by @swordsjew.bsky.social for more about this worldview. There are people actively hoping for the “end of the world”.

I hope that you're able to find joy amid everything, wherever you are and in whatever capacity you can. I wish I could stop thinking about how we in the US are ruled by many of the most evil people on earth. I hope I can find a little escape soon too.

I wish I could enjoy this properly by actually watching the show, which I have for reasons unclear to me been unable to make myself do since its second "cancellation".

By the end of the month, I would have my first tattoo, not least of which was due to its influence. And I would draw fan art for the first time! And e-meet all of you.

Tomorrow is the four year anniversary of the first episode of Our Flag Means Death, and therefore 4 years since a tv show minorly changed my life. I'll never stop being grateful I was there by chance on day one. Seeing representation unfold in real time. Meeting unforgettable characters. All of it
