A Reductress post features a photo of Kristi Noem with the headline, “Kristi Noem Put Down for Being Too Hard to Train”
Screaming
The Maple BBQ Group Scene is a lot more expensive, and logarithmically messier.
Yes, you should definitely kiss your sister when you get there. A nice brotherly peck on the cheek while giving her a long hug.
fuck ultramundane
Sweet! I’ll have to give it a listen soon.
Protest sign from MN that says, “DEARLY BELOVED. WE ARE GATHERED HERE TODAY TODISMANTLE THIS THING CALLED ICE.” with a picture of Prince in the left hand lower corner.
10/10 ICE protest sign
I think it’s Aphids.
Aphids with jackhammers.
And nobody can wait to try those delicious-looking cakes afterwards!
Old meme of woman in a car drinking watermelon juice, captioned "Bitch, me too. The fuck."
The ratcheting/cracking noises his back and arms make when he bends them:
I'm reminded of the SF restaurant Ananda Fuara, which was devoted to the teachings of Sri Chinmoy. The men were in tan slacks and blue polo shirts, the women in blue, red or pink Saris. (Many big vegetarian restaurants have some kind of guru or cultish backing, though theirs seemed mostly harmless.)
I thought of you every time I see images of what should be quiet house-lined Minneapolis streets. Hoping for the safety of your city and proud of the people for protesting this bullshit again.
"...I got better."
I think so, but I couldn't tell you for sure what your username was if I did.
That’s Roondawg, First of his Name. Fun gay character by the actor Evan Mulrooney. So dumb. So gay. So hot. So absurd. So random. So hot. (Did I say hot twice? Oops.) www.instagram.com/roondawg_fir...
Big yikes. I don’t have enough palms for my forehead.
Yikes…something even you didn’t know? That’s…that’s a lot.
My favorite nude of 2025? Yours.
The "Stonks" meme image with a stork's head replacing that of a man in a suit with crossed arms. The background has an orange arrow going up over fake stock numbers in blue. The text on the image reads "STORKS".
Is it definitely not a good charity donation venue. I just treat it as a deal site and always minimize the HB take.
Tangentially: I thought offering a “Vibe Coding” book bundle that gave pennies to Girls Who Code was particularly ballsy.
Happy 2026 to the brand new bottle of acetaminophen I've just opened.
No, the answer is “We’ll set them off at 10:30 cause it might be raining at midnight.”
Will a rainy New Year's Eve mean fewer fireworks in the Mission? Hard to say, but hope springs eternal.
(Of course, fewer fireworks tonight just means more random ones in the next week when there's a dry patch, day or night.)
CORE MEMORY UNLOCKED
I can't say it's my favorite of all time, but: we got MTV pretty early and this song was in heavy rotation. I was a little too young to seek it out in record stores, but it stuck with me ever since. I liked Crowded House well enough, but this was more my jam. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2K-4...
The Peaches Remix version is pretty great too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7Em...
@ultramundane.bsky.social reminded me of the CD exchange we members of an old gaming message board would do once a year. So, why not? Here’s a playlist for the year with stuff you probably haven’t heard before: music.apple.com/us/playlist/...
