Yikes! Sending healing energy! Feel better soon. đ§Ąđ§Ąđ§Ą
Something is very off with #BelowDeck this season. (Actually, a lot of things. The hideous music & editing, for ex.) Feels like production thought they struck TV gold with Solene, and prevented her firing. WRONG. Great way to destroy a once fun franchise, though. Itâs becoming unwatchable.
Weâre gonna need a bigger asteroid.
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobsâeven multiple jobsâaren't safe from homelessness in this country.
$250 still needed! Surely we can do this:
Here's a picture of a wee coo to lighten ye heart.
Y'all know about my friend Jen, who runs Taos Hound Underground: taoshoundunderground.org. They've had a transport van donated, and a vendor is willing to sell her two transport safety kennels for the van at a greatly reduced rate . . . if she can take them tonight before she leaves.
Now, tonight's local urgent needs. Tonight it's going to be just one, for the rescue work locals are doing because the county is abdicating its statutory responsibility.
And it's another short thread @wingsndnsilver.bsky.social with tonight's inventory selection, a spare and elegant cuff with phenomenal freehand filework and an old Skystone to match the feature's:
Three houses in the fancy oceanfront part of my old hood in Honoluluâ1 each for me, my sis, & guests/staff. Then I am starting a program to help cover veterinary expenses so that nobody has to put down their beloved pet b/c they canât afford care.
Give Winston a big hug from me. I miss my beloved Other Winston so much.
If I could get $300 I can pay my electric. I have rent covered now. #HelpSky #HelpFolksLive2025 #MutualAidBoost #DisabilityMutualAid
Down to needing to sell at least 5 framed pieces! <3
Beautiful! Was just thinking how meaningful it was that Lewisâ dad comforted & reassured a distraught rookie after he DNSâd in Australia. Half a season later, a podium for this lovely young man. đ§Ąđ§Ąđ§Ą
THIS.
This scene with Aretha is perfection.
Wowza. And yikes. Guess I was assuming that some of Kikiâs behavior stems from strategy/reality b/c she supports so many family members. Also, Guerdy & Kiki donât see nasty stuff that happens behind their backs until eps air. But maybe deeper sociological issues are at play here too. đżđżđż #RHOM
WTAF?!?
Lol, same!
With mirth in funeral
People forget the largest minority group is the disabled community and they are the only minority group that you can unexpectedly become apart of.
Your daily horoscope: Today you will feel like lemonade - very tart until youâve been filled with sugar.
Iâm rooting for the uncensored Ghost of Walter Cronkite, swearing like the salty old sea dog that he was IRL.
âThere are none so blind as they who will not see.â In the Year of Our Lord 2025, blindness to such obvious, egregious, and violent racism is a completely willful choice. An unforgivable choice. And a choice that has led this country into an extremely dire state. #RHOM
August 30th. #HelpFolksLive2025 thread. Something's *always* due & food is *always* needed. Things only get better with community action. *Now* is when folks need food, water, shelter, meds. *Now* is when we/the community needs to be there for each other. There's no one else. Just us.
You took a (long) break from wearing a mask, right? You got away with it. But, guess what? There's a *lot* more Covid around again. And, access to vax is up in the air. Just put a (good) mask on again when you're out and about and you'll be much more protected as well as protecting others. âšâšâš
Team Congestive Heart Failure is standing by.
WaitâŠdid virulent narcissist (and notorious racist) Skip Bayless actually call somebody else a âme, me, me guyâ? Seriously?!?
Yes, which is the dangerous part. (JD was the plan all along for villains like Thiel & company.) But the rank & file cult members worship their Golden Orange Idol, even as his fascist policies directly harm them. They wonât transfer their love to JD, & thus may chafe at the same policies from him.
Mostly clots. Big, beautiful clots.
Iâm up late into the night, with my brain spinning in circles. So I drew a bird. OrâŠI started drawing, and it became a bird.

Labor Day weekend is a perfect timing. For someone who spent his entire life cheating, abusing & underpaying his workers, while aggressively flouting labor laws. And then, of course, laying waste to the Federal workforce. Ding Dong, motherfucker.

On one hand, reducing car use reduces urban pollution. But on the other, everyone likes it and cities become more livable
Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says âCan I help you find something?â âIâm looking for the obituaries.â âThe obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.â âNot the one Iâm looking for.â
Highway to Hell seems relevant.
EXTREMELY URGENT. Please help if you are able. No better way to foster hope during these days of fear than to help keep others safe. I still remember a stranger from Australia who sent $18 a few years ago, towards a safe roof when I was homeless. Please help Kia & family stay safe now. đșđșđș
Due on 1st in 3 days. Rent and utilities. Disabled so selling my art and donations are how I get by. Any help is appreciated. Trying to stay housed and safe. 600/2500 made so far. PayPal.me/kiagbear Cashapp $kiagbear Venmo kiagbear ko-fi.com/mahtheyzhawe...

JD is a genuine psychopath. Dangerous AF.
Just like Guerdy has to accept Juliaâs completely insincere, utterly condescending non-apology. And Juliaâs over-the-top play acting that she is now actually Guerdyâs friend. I hope to see Julia VIVISECTED on the #RHOM reunion. Qwhite a mystery why âbigger personâ always falls to Kiki & GuerdyâŠ
Exactly. I hate that Kiki has to be the bigger person here & accept Adrianaâs convoluted quasi-apology/lame excuse. Adriana gets a smidge of credit for realizing she effed up & needed to fix it. Unlike most of the hoes on #RHOM who always double & triple down on their nasty BS. See: Pippen, Larsa
I would 100% watch The Guerdy and Kiki Show! #RHOM
When adult kids go no contact, the last straw is usually the 1367th time that parent did something incredibly egregious & harmful to you. No contact is, sadly, often the only way to protect your own physical & mental health. The toxic parent doesnât actually care to understand. IYKYK. #RHOM
Well, blasphemy during someoneâs funeral procession is one way to end an episodeâŠYikes. Larsa & Stephanie especially. This pair of wenches definitely have a date in hell. #RHOM
..along with immediate video receipts when these women are lying about something they said 48 hours or 12 years ago. Now THAT is good editing. #RHOM
Sevilla is just gorgeous. Props to the #RHOM producers for giving us some beautiful shots of this historic city.
Stephanie is exhausting. Girl, none of these ladies are your friend! A few of them suck up to you for access to your tiresome nouveau riche things. The rest find you bossy and boring, as do your sisters & 99% of #RHOM viewers. Congrats on a well earned one-and-done Housewives stint.
Sickened by this staged âWill you be the godfatherâ stunt on #RHOM. Faker than the fake tears Julia couldnât manage to squeeze out over her daughters. How are two ancient white dudes in Spain supposed to be âmen in their lifeâ for vulnerable Black toddlers in Miami? Math ainât mathing.
In a world of vapid insufferable bitches, Larsa Pippen may be the most vapid and insufferable. Your former BFF just got her divorceâfrom a genuine monsterâfinalized after a prolonged ordeal to do so. How hard is it to join in a simple toast & say Congrats? #RHOM
Sounds about white. #RHOM
The OG Getty is amazing. So glad that the staff had an aggressive plan in place to protect its treasures from the fire.
Vance is a psychopath. He will kill and harm with even greater abandon than The Felon. The only hope we have: No one remotely likes him. Not even his wife & kids, let alone the Felon fans. There is no cult of JD, & there never will be. Ridicule, marginalize, deride, & contain him from Day One.

Amazing how a half dozen or so screaming racists showed up in the replies here to do racisms. And earn blocks. JFC. Ostapenko yelled & jammed her finger in Townsendâs face while employing classic racist dog whistles & threats. Followed by unhinged social media posts trying to justify her behavior.
Wow. So many racists showing their whole asses in these replies. Congrats on your insta-block, Klan Boy!

No one is acting as if this in an emergency, except those of us who work in these fields. But we see the tsunami approaching--a wave of sickness and death that will wash over us all in growing numbers down the months, down the years. 15/
THREAD. But especially THIS. The fascists have installed literal psychopaths as agency heads. Psychopaths enjoy killing people, without a second thought or the slightest remorse. The DEATH is the point; the cruelty is just bonus fun for them along the way.

Watching Elizabeth Warren talk about Trumpâs fascism as a distraction last night really broke something in me. Where I used to have this anger at the Democrats for folding to Trump I find myself numb. I donât know if itâs going to last, but I donât feel anything about their inaction anymore.
Here's my back brace/posture corrector prototype. I'm trying to gauge interest before I set up the pre-orders within the next week. There will be 3 patterns available. It will be 40-50$ USD. For the size, please select your size or mention your measurement?
Full resignation letter from Demetre C. Daskalakis, a CDC leader, does not hold back. "The recent shooting at CDC is not why I am resigning. My grandfather, who I am named after, stood up to fascist forces in Greece and lost his life doing so. I am resigning to make him and his legacy proud."
I donât understand the headlines that they got into a confrontation. The headlines should all say âTownsend Moves To Third Round While Ostapenko Goes On Unhinged Rant After Lossâ
Exactly. Racist shitbag Ostapenko is extra racist here by trying to sully and overshadow Taylor Townsendâs fantastic win. Nasty stuff. #USOpen

URGENT. Please help keep this fabulous Indigenous artist and her kids safely housed. She is disabled, and in America, disability = unsafe living conditions or homelessness without good people standing up & providing mutual aid. Can you spare $25 or $100 to help Kia? Thank you. đșđșđș
Itâs the start of rent making week, which totally snuck up on me during the chaos. I need to sell at least *10* framed pieces (or the equivalent) to have it. Putting together some gift sets of lovely things to go w/ orders now.

He continued: "This is not a time to fall back into the reflexive crouch that I so often see, where the authoritarian creep by this administration is ignored in favor of some horse race piece on who will be helped politically by the president's actions." See also: presswatchers.org/2025/08/we-h...

Bringing in the national guard to stop crime but putting them in places where there isnât crime so instead getting them to do the custodial work normally done by park service employees because theyâre all fired now. Efficiency.
Maybe military equipment would stay in better repair if it wasnât being used for Stalinesque parades to flatter the dictator. And to OCCUPY AMERICAN CITIES AND WANTONLY KIDNAP & DEPORT MOMS, DADS & CHILDREN. Just a thought: Prioritize this egregiously fascist stuff first.
The Felon is a narcissistic sociopath. A terrible human being who has done terrible things. But narcissism means he still cares (pathologically) about what people think of him. JD Vance is a soulless psychopath owned by an amoral billionaire. JD will kill 1, 10, or 100 million people, and laugh.

Oh, man. I would pay actual money for Captain Leeâs unfiltered reactions to what #BelowDeck has become. I just feel sad that #Bravo trashed a quirky, fun franchise that occupied its own unique space in the copycat reality TV universe.
Almost finished. The levels of corruption & excess are literally staggering. Have found myself saying OMG out loud repeatedly. Andrew & Sarah sold themselves HUNDREDS of times to the planetâs most vile dictators & criminal âbusinessâ interests. Such as Qaddafi (!). A jaw-dropping read.
Capt.Kerry seems a serious guy, definitely committed to professionalism. What does he think of how this season unfolded, IRL & on TV? Casting incompetent, distracted, unqualified crew poses serious risks to the yachtâs safety & to his reputation. Does Kerry value his integrity over #BelowDeck cash?
