I see it as white and gold unless I squeeze my eyes almost shut and then it looks blue.

I don’t know the answer, but I support people as however they identify, I don’t care and love them all, but I sort of would feel silly saying I was she/her. Like it’s like I’m participating in something that I’m not really a part of.

My 87 year old aunt volunteers for a local theater, which obviously has a lot of queer folks involved, and at one point the coordinator said when the volunteers introduced themselves at a meeting that they should announce their preferred pronouns. I get that the coordinator meant well, but my aunt said it’s nobody’s business what her pronouns are unless RuPaul is asking. LOL.

Yes of course. I’m just saying, some of us are livid about Christians like this

Oh sorry.

In its Facebook and onward phase, yes I agree. Prior to that we had this wonderful site called Livejournal where you could privately blog to a select group of friends, and it was the absolute best way to brain dump, have people give you real advice, and make the best online friends. Yes it had much controversy when it was bought by a Russian company, I can point you to a podcast if you want more detail on that, and certainly there was drama sometimes, but I would give a lot to just talk to my friends as a group that way again and really know each other deeply that way again, and other than the odd very ignorable ad, you weren’t forced to be part of an algorithm or AI horseshit or fake news or verified accounts or any of that garbage. You could buy a permanent account for 100 dollars for the added features, but that was basically started to keep the site running after it took off. It really was beautiful and helpful and loving and felt organic and true for that time.

Have you ever noticed how hard it is for novels or TV or any other fictional platform to include anything about smartphones or using social media? When it is mentioned it feels very awkward and forced into the narrative.

My church has a mission partner group where we welcome and help house and settle newcomers. Some of our congregation have even let them live in their basement units, helped them with finding housing, furniture, etc, and just helped them navigate how to do life here, like doctor’s appointments, banking, school, etc. It makes us absolutely livid that doors are closing to newcomers.

The best eggs are eggs from a farm that are unwashed and you keep on the counter. They taste a zillion times better and last for a long time. I get 3 dozen for 15 dollars at the local farm. It’s honestly better than the store.

If you should keep one thing in life it’s books.

I accept your scorn.

Omigod

You really should buy a bedbug proof mattress cover and interceptors for the legs of your bed and furniture. Trust me when I say that an ounce of prevention will save you a lot of trouble, cost, and emotional trauma. Even if it costs more, buy then anyway.

No I’m 50 and I’ve seen them, definitely wasn’t alive in the 60s.

It’s hilarious.

Merge Dragons.

Neko Case, who is also a member of the New Pornographers. I have seen both her solo act and TNP probably about 10-15 times.

I don’t play a dedicated video game setup, but I do play a merge game on my phone that’s endless that I can whip out and do anywhere.

I tell you what, I’m 50 years old, and there is to this day nothing sexier than a big hair metal mop. If I could wave a magic wand and bring the Nikki Sixx of 1985 back to me and subtract the heroin and all the other terrible things, dude could get me.

Idk, I’m a woman and I keep my woofy shaved simply because I hate the way the hair feels.

Have you been x-rayed? You could have a disc problem or something. My father had diskectomy at a young age.
