I ordered the muppet supplies I’ve had sitting in a cart for over a week. Now I will for sure go to bed, and not do some quick stuff with air dry clay so it can dry overnight

β€œBut what if you stayed up all night cleaning the house?”

I don’t know where this energy is coming from, or why 1:30AM is the time my body has chosen, but I would love for it to come back in 10 hours.

I’m brushing my teeth, getting ready to sleep, and the little voice in my mind asks, β€œbut what if you stayed up all night making things?”

I am going to go to bed. I am not going to do the 3D scan I’ve been thinking about. I am not going to glue the fur to the mascot head. I will not make muppets…

I feel like this would explain some things about Cardassians πŸ˜‚

3000 years from now, giant cockroach anthropologists will be reconstructing our society, and they will think Gerard Way was a vampiric patron saint of teenage angst. Is that accurate? I genuinely don’t know, someone please tell me.

Also why is there so much vampire fandom overlap? Is it just the similar aesthetics? The classic work of art known as My Immortal having both things?

I know maybe 2-3 MCR songs, but I keep running across mentions of them in all sorts of art. I think it’s cool that people are engaging with art in that way, I just want to understand the appeal better I guess? There was a really cool girl at my high school who was the kind of fan I’m thinking of.

On a more lighthearted note:

Can someone explain the MCR/Gerard Way fandom to me? Like I know of him/the band, but it seems like some people take the interest to the next level. There’s a comic artist I like, for example, whose protagonists are all based on Gerard Way. Does the fandom have a name?

No signs of infection, but the site of the pain is concerning enough I need to monitor it. If it gets worse, I’m supposed to go to the ER, but they don’t think it will. Most likely culprit is lymph nodes temporarily upset. Less likely, must watch for, mastoiditis.

Oh hey, it’s Dr Wada! I’ve never been, but I get ads for him all the time. My eye doc in the SF area is all Disney themed, to a similar extreme

At urgent care because I woke up with pain behind my ear. Hoping it’s just that I slept on it weird, but I want to rule out infection since I’m about to be traveling later this week

This happened to me too! The filing and the removals! My current dentist looked lowkey horrified when he was doing the first exam, and it wasn’t anything to do with my hygiene. My teeth were clean, there were just the wrong number of them

YES
And as an adult trans man, I’m now looking into having the points added back on cosmetically.

I had no idea this was so common.

Yes! Autosomal Dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst (ACHOO) syndrome! I have it too. Something about the facial nerves being close enough together that a bright light in the optic nerve will trigger a sneeze

I keep meaning to book one of those rooms, just for the experience, but the price is insane

I’m sure this is somehow related to why when I try to speak Spanish, German comes out. But I can understand both fairly well in writing or being spoken to me. The language centers in my brain are crossed and deeply confused.

I have a problem when watching Bridgerton, where every time they talk about β€œthe Ton,” I think of pork. Ton in Japanese is pork, like in tonkatsu.

Regency lady in a fancy dress, β€œoh no, what will the Ton think of this?”

Me, eating fries on the couch, β€œyeah, what will the pork think of this?”

For the record, I don’t buy into any idea of perfection, let alone the ones these chuds seem to espouse. I figure anyone reading my posts knows that, but I want to be extremely clear. I love my neighbors and the good people of this country, immigrants or born here, exactly as they are already.

The β€œWar on Drugs” was largely a way to incarcerate more people and feed the prison labor machine. I worry that the current attacks on immigrants and transgender people are more of exactly the same thing. This desire to make anyone imperfect into an invisible slave of the system. It’s disgusting.

08.03.2026 01:35 πŸ‘ 4 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

The USA has one of the world’s highest incarceration rates. If you look at a map of where those rates are the highest, and overlap that map with a map of the confederacy, you’ll notice they look nearly identical. Slave profiteers never stopped, they just pivoted their business model.

The prison industrial complex needs enslaved people to fuel the profits of the prison owners. They are highly motivated to lobby for tighter laws, branding more people as criminals. Just look at their donation records for proof. They want more people in prison, working labor for their bottom line.

The current administration is expanding what things are considered a β€œcrime” for the common person, while those at the top commit blatant and unchecked atrocities. People are being arrested and branded as criminals with no due process or fair trial. They can be forced into slavery, here, in the USA.

Periodic reminder: slavery was never completely ended in the US. It is still allowed as β€œpunishment for a crime.” Prisoners can be subject to slave labor. Private prisons make enormous amounts of money from contracts with the government to house prisoners, and from the labor of those prisoners.
