joyeux noel

overlooking a series of circular water filled tanks of a sewage treatment plant at night. lights line a long brick building on the horizon as a blue-black sky is stark behind a veil of thin puffy clouds in the distance.

good night, sewers.
good night, streams.
good night, operations and maintenance teams.
good night, settling tanks.
good night, stream banks.
good night, engineers, scientists, crews, managers, inspectors, analysts too.
a good night for us means serving with care.

good night, sewers, everywhere.

They're calling this the most Italian thing in history

so did we ever stop tariffing those penguins or...

to what?

my partner and i constantly quote 'but black dynamite, i sell drugs to the community'

DancingBacons Hi guys! Welcome to DancingBacons! This channel is all about FOOD, FOOD and more FOOD! Featuring food I love, to fascinating ones and down to amazing people preparing them I am a faceless creator ...

i like this guy, although it's less about food in the 'food as craft' sense and more about like 'oh hey look at the incredible number of things a person can put in their mouth, the world is a wonderful place'

'oh no it's cringe'

yes hi hello welcome to the burden of existence

also in a society where *most people were that*, the idea that god became just A Guy who obviously did miracles and such but ultimately had a pretty short and tragic run of it is really compelling to you, a person with no power!

they have gazed upon the cringe and realized with dawning horror that this is their future, no matter how punk rock their diy hrt is.

i am a very visibly queer person. i do love a cringey 'in this house' sign bc it means nobody will bother me.

(i wonder how much of this particular iteration of discourse is two people realizing that just bc they didn't start out a woman doesn't mean they're immune from becoming their mom)

This is incredible. Looking good in a tight shirt is better than being smart when it comes to war.

This has big "Dad why did you bring me to a gay steel mill" energy

they look like fish

happy World Plumbing Day to all who celebrate.

conservative evangelicalism is the direct theological offspring of slaveholder christianity and it contains all of its pathologies, part infinity

yeah i grew up there and every so often somebody i went to high school with will be like 'i bought a new house!' and i'll go and look at the sqft/price ratio and am always blown away

'built for the kroeger family' ok that tracks.

also unless you have like 15 children what are you even going to do with that much space?????

it is a beautiful house though.

i desperately want to know what a $4m house in cincinnati looks like (zillow is like 'do you want a whole-ass apartment building?')

honestly this is just queers being mad about things that remind them of their mom.

if they did not want people to look at it they should not have posted it on bluesky dot com

partner, after i breathlessly explained this drama: what the fuck is a neopet

also sometimes people are visibly homeless because they are asshole idiots who have burned through the goodwill of their friends and family. doesn't mean they shouldn't be housed, but like, you don't need to be rational and virtuous for that.

virtue signaling good.

working on a theory that the pokemon company timed their release of pokopia to a moment of crisis. from which we can infer that the pokemon company is complicit in an illegal war in the middle east

God Paris Paloma and Florence doing Labour is life altering

Physical engineering works like this too: either thing work or thing no work. Obviously there are always "thing work but at what cost" situations, but you are never arguing about the ability of thing to do what it says it does

Anyway one of my favorite graphic novels is by a Nebula-winning writer - this is my plug for Digger: diggercomic.com

God I need to execute on my podcast idea

If I could forcibly brain-gavage episodes of how it's made into these people's skulls I would consider my life's work complete

Time to get really mad about how they ended a piece of media (I am still furious about the last 10 minutes of what remains of Edith Finch)
