Career update: did a 5 minute presentation at work yesterday titled, "Star Trek + Japan + Internet = Heated Rivalry". Not sure if I'll ever top it.

Screenshot of a message request asking if I’ll be their sugar baby for $7k/week.

Got another one and I’m trying to figure out the scam. I say yes, give them my payment info, then they run chargebacks/refund requests off fraudulent funds? Like, Michael, you can’t even see my face, dude.

Screenshot of the message request portion of the social media app UpScrolled showing a series of DMs asking if they can get to know the user better.

Mirror photo of a Filipino woman showing her outfit of a black t-shirt, loose camo pants, and black shoes with skeleton feet printed on them. Her face is covered by her phone.

I started an UpScrolled account for ‘fit checks and these bots are giving me a taste of what it’s probably like to be an Instagram baddie. Amusing when all my posts are like this.

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

I have determined that everything right now is All Too Much and it needs to be Considerably Less, so if reality could just dial it down a fucking iota or two, I think we'd all like that

Supreme Court lets California use congressional map that favors Dems In a move that will make it harder for the GOP to keep control of Congress, the Supreme Court said the state can use a congressional map that favors Democrats.

2026 got me out here celebrating gerrymandering. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Celebrating wins however small: this auntie just did her first house dance class and did not fall flat on her face. (Don’t ask me how my knees and back will feel tomorrow, though.)

Just found a site that had NewJeans’ 22-23 Yearbook and their first EP with the bag that was released before anyone knew them and I’m literally just trying to find joy wherever I can so yeah, I bought them. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Shout out to Danielle, shout out to Bunnies, NewJeans forever.

I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

Comic-Con Bans AI Art After Artist Pushback The famed convention's organizers have banned AI from the art show.

Thank goodness. Never mind that it should have been an automatic ban without having to have a bunch of artists speak up on how bad the original requirements were. Do better, @sandiegocomic-con.bsky.social. www.404media.co/comic-con-ba...

As a lifelong Californian, I’m hella ready to learn Dutch. Hej!

Three women dressed up as the Three Good Fairies in their peasant outfits from Disney’s Sleeping Beauty

We got the full Sleeping Beauty group together for SF Fan Expo. Another fine example of us cosplaying something that only appears for <3 minutes in any media.

Dispatch with the Channel Tres song at the end?! I love this game even more!

Pre-Thanksgiving earthquake? Bless.

We've entered the time of year when saying someone is "hotter than a parking spot at Costco" is the highest form of compliment.

TikTok is telling me that quarter-zip sweaters/sweatshirts are it for Gen Z guys and I’m thinking it’s only a matter of time before business-casual-in-the-club becomes a thing again.

AND the Warriors won!

Fuck yeah, Prop 50! LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!

Hell yeah! Congrats Mayor Mamdani!

Became a SoundCloud rapper for Halloween. Shout out to the Guaplord @jild.bsky.social.

“LeBron is pleased!”

Cut to shot of LeBron looking absolutely stoic.

Promotional card of D’Angelo with Levi’s jeans on from Macy’s. Autographed by D’Angelo with “Stay up O.K. Playa” on it.

In 2000 I got to meet D’Angelo briefly at an autograph signing at Macy’s in SF when he worked with Levi’s. It was peak Okayplayer years and, like a dork, called out, “Okay, player!” when it was my turn. Staff told us he wasn’t personalizing any autographs, but he did for me. RIP D’Angelo.

Too young, D'Angelo. Too young. RIP

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.

Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

George R.R. Martin Steps Away from 'The Winds of Winter' for New Project George R.R. Martin has taken a break from writing The Winds of Winter to promote a new adaptation of The Ugly Chickens.

I like how every 15 months or so I get the opportunity to grouse about A Song of Ice and Fire because if there's one fandom wound I will never let die it's the ending of GoT. collider.com/george-rr-ma...

Friendly reminder that you can ABSOLUTELY speak ill of the dead. 👀

Happy five year anniversary to when the Bay Area woke up to this.

Joined @pixelfed.bsky.social and made a greatest hits of the costumes I’ve worn over the last 20-something years. Crazy to think I’ve been doing this hobby for so long! #cosplay
