we’re about to spend a day or two arguing about whether the thing he did that perfectly mimicked a Nazi salute was in fact a Nazi salute, but I can’t get past what a complete fucking dork freak he looks like when doing it
It’s almost as if they designed 2-factor authentication to derail adhders from finishing any administrative task
Calling myself Monstera in hopes it helps me remember to drink from the water bottle I lug around
the irony of me (dehydrated) killing my plants by overwatering
Thanks @jsjrgmndz.bsky.social !!!
I just published this paper that argues that, in the US, criminal law cannot carry feminist messages. This is a reason against using criminal law responses to combat gender-based violence. Please check it out!

When Albuquerque made their bus system—including their bus rapid transit lines—free, not only did ridership jump it was actually found to be more cost effective.
Cheers to the gen z coffee shop workers who correctly calculated that playing “Closing Time” would rouse the last few elder millennial customers to leave.
So wild
Me: you know when you are tired, exhausted even, but not sleepy?
My ~very good analytic philosopher~not adhd~ partner: I don’t understand the distinction between tired and sleepy. They are the same.
Like, I no longer run through 437 permutations of how my day will go tomorrow and make a plan for everything that could go wrong.
Finally got medicated for ADHD. So when I lay down to sleep, I just tell my brain it’s time to stop and it just does? It just lets me sleep? IS THIS HOW THE REST OF YOU HAVE BEEN LIVING?
My apartment has only two temperatures in the winter:
double wool socks or college dance bar on thirsty thursday in may
Idea for a map-based app where users upload bathroom codes from local businesses. Free public bathrooms should be a human right!
Kyrie can’t hurt us anymore
Kyrie: I didn’t realize that the Celtics were going to expect me to come in and be a decent person. I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to diss my teammates to the media when we we lost but take credit as a great leader whenever we won. Be warned. It’s a cult.
No one is more annoying than a Celtics fan when we up 3-0
I fucking love dogs, but Seattle dog owners are the worst people. If your dog “doesn’t really like other dogs” you probably should not take him for walks through densely populated areas. There will be other dogs.
I feel like we are overdue—we just debated department policy where we actually agree but I insist on reiterating a tiny point of differing emphasis, so that means “is K trans or does K have boring anxiety” is up next.
Having trained against hawks in Boston, I win the dove/hawk game of getting a table at a coffee shop in Seattle every time.
I always have a “discarded paragraphs” doc open just for this
Low key love watching a coffee shop full of millennials silently nod along with “the real slim shady” without taking their eyes off their laptops
Why is most of writing realizing that most what I wrote is irrelevant.
The bear is the new madmen
I smiled at my seat mate.
I made faces at a crying baby until it started laughing, and I don’t even like babies!
I thanked the flight attendants SO MANY TIMES.
I got bumped to first class for a very short flight, and it’s incredible how much of a kind humanitarian I am when not packed like into a tin can like sardine with other cranky humans.
I love woo woo fortune telling stuff because whether you accept or reject the “answer” you’re accidentally doing introspection which is so so funny to me, tricking yourself into emotional reflection using the aesthetic of a spirit halloween
“Truth Hurts” in a new way today. Ugh.
