Ruin a movie by making it about Gary: Gary Needs Moms
Ruin a movie by making it about Gary. 50 Shades of Gary
If I lived anyone near you, absolutely would.
Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy
Every time I see this image, there’s a brief moment where I feel like Howard‘s bangs might be the most embarrassing part of the whole thing
“Christ almighty, Dad, did YOU read it?”
Using one photo already on your phone, what is the announcement tomorrow at 2?
imagine you’re the person who works at a wax museum and has to go around with a hair dryer and update the melting skin on all the current politicians
When I mentored high school students, they always said that they wanted to program video games, and I said “are you sure? Or do you want to program, and also play video games?” No one I know was putting in 80 hour weeks to write C# WinForm GUIs for doctor’s offices.
I was discussing this on twitch earlier, and my brother was watching, and I had a mild panic attack because I realized (as I was about to discuss the fact that I am staying employed so I can get facial feminization surgery), my mom was possibly in the room with him
Was it because you were in The Big Chair?
NO!! This is a personal violence being done against you
This… is compelling. I’m probably not gonna order it myself, but I would definitely try a slice
This is… the most salient reply I’ve ever had from the bot, and i wonder if there’s a human piloting it sometimes. At any rate, thank you! I’m actually in a really good place at the moment; my job is out of CA, and has great health insurance, so my stuff will be covered (until i retire)
Slept in a Talking Heads shirt, woke up in a shotgun shack in another part of the world
I keep thinking to myself “I wish I could retire early. I should look into retiring early” And then I remind myself that I am trans and I take estrogen and a GLP-1 receptor agonist, and I’d really like FFS, and the government is probably not in a hurry to help me pay for ~any~ of that
Some teens experimented with sex and drugs And others… well, others went to puppet camp
Honestly, impossible to argue with. I’m kind of a garbage raccoon when it comes to food preferences, so sometimes it’s hard for me to distinguish between “this is good and deserves defending” versus “eh, my stomach is bored and lonely, and this will do”
I gotta tell you, I’ve had some pretty darned good oatmeal cookies Is it the flavor? The texture?
OMG, y’all, what a wonderful end to a blah day. I had a lovely little twitch stream, and then two separate acts of kindness like this. I feel absolutely seen and loved
😳 you’re so wonderful, thank you! 🥰💕💕💕💕
Feeling a little weird, a little off, so I’m going to see if streaming helps.
I hate this, because I’m forced to agree with the racist that you shouldn’t be transphobic, and I’m forced to agree with the transphobe that you shouldn’t be racist.
This is an excellent question, and one that I left purposefully vague. I might be bold and say my face, because I’ve got a good year or two before 1K happens, which is probably enough time for people to forget about this.
Nay. I don’t really love pineapple, and I’m not the highest fan of ham, which is what pineapple is usually paired with. I do like a savory/sweet combination, tho
i’m very bored, and it’s been a long time since i did one of these
Ella mella
This sounds amazing, because I could stand to be cured of everything
You can thank me for: air guitar bitmap BIOS breakdancing coprocessor DRAM kerning memory-hole TCP/IP Usenet
i did nothing of value today, partly because i hate doing shit by myself i need someone to pal around with in town
Posting face at 1k
i had never heard of demi or either of the contestants, and i watched this episode at 3 o’clock in the morning while half awake (i got up for a wee and looked at Bsky like an idiot before i went back to sleep and i saw your post) honestly, not a terrible introduction to the show
I got up at 3 o’clock to use the bathroom the other night, and I made the mistake of looking at blue sky real quick before going back to sleep, and I ended up watching this entire thing. I have no regrets even though i was VERY tired the next day
🫂 YOU are super awesome. Your cancer is not, and your mother-in-law seems insufficiently sympathetic. I’m sorry.
i had never even MET melange before. Fred is a bad influence, i think
did i… do something?
I don’t know if Rick and Morty is embarrassing to like, but i kind of don’t care
👀
Imma show up with a couple of blunted safety scissors and a giant stack of construction paper
trans rights btw this isn't up for debate
Man, get a load of this a movie-lover over here
Todayborday is Labor Day!
show yourself so I can talk you out of it
And these are among the many reasons that they are my friends and that I love them dearly.
Boy, is my face red. I might as well just posted “hey, I like David Lynch, but I’m a pretty casual fan at best“
Did David Lynch just put out a casting call for “kids who look like David Lynch“?
I’m also lucky, my state is not great, but the company I work for is in one of the best states to work in
Happy don’t-have-to-work-in-the-worst-state-for-working day!
The very, very short dude
Let's fuckin go
My hope is that their actual underlying sentiment was “you are innately valuable, and I wish I could help you feel loved and supported“ and they just had absolutely terrible execution
Split it with you
The line between genius and madness is a razor fine one, indeed. I had opinions about Ben’s Chop Suey sandwich, but I’ll be honest with you: I’d fw this. Granted, I could eat about a quarter of that, but still…
moog so I can be all weird and squishy and awkward, and everyone will be fine with that, and it will be a good thing, actually.
I’d recognize that lanky dude with the doofy haircut anywhere
Ha! That’s fantastic
The best FFS this world had ever seen
a true ally!
There is a neon sign with that phrase up at, I don’t remember, el Bait Shop? I clearly wasn’t reading it too closely.
(Also, apologies to the girls from the place that Kerouac actually mentioned, who are also very pretty)
Well, then, apologies to the both of them!
Apologies to Vonnegut, but the prettiest girls in the world live in bluesky.
HARD YES
I know it’s an empty sentiment, but thank you just the same.
Ruin a movie by making it about Gary. Gary On, Nurse
Bedbugs? Scorpions? Ill-tempered Dobermans?
The Jock Jams soundtrack?
No Père Jacques!
This is fantastic. A truly educational experience for them, I’m sure
😭
Nine weeks, I guess. I’m very good at math.
This is apparently how I learned to swim when I was a baby, but I think I’m OK, because it was done indoors, in a pool. No opportunity for a switcheroo.
I am not a therapist, but I did start listening to a therapy podcast, so, you know. Feeling pretty sage.
In that hypothetical situation, I probably look more “accident prone“
Same, totally hypothetical as well, of course
Probably gives you more of a handsome vibe
Every time i read Organic Daughter in my head I hear it in the voice Eddie Vedder singing Daughter in my head. It’s becoming an ear worm.
dying that pritzker posted this (dying with delight)
Giiiiiiirl, you KNOW it
Did you put a bandaid on it, like they do? It’d be a good gag, but actually probably don’t do that; i bet it would hurt
I feel like this is what made the Minority Report world work, just a goo pod full of hyperautistic precogs going “Tom Cruise is giving off even more dangerous than normal vibes today”
I think they thought of themselves as anti-establishment darlings, so they expected the church to be against them and the tastemakers on the left to celebrate them. I think they are discovering their views now more closely align with the church, and they’ve decided it must be everyone else’s fault.
I guess it’s not impressive to say in retrospect, now that we all know that he’s a jerk, but I felt so justified. Alec Baldwin was similar I don’t know if Casey Neistat is a bad person or not, but he sets off alarm bells in my brain in the exact same way
Feel that. I don’t know how to sell “I can sense through the television that Sean Penn is a bad person in real life” to a normal person
He’s right, you definitely couldn’t make any Monty Python movie in 2025, because all of the Pythons are either dead or have turned into insufferable humorless scolds
It’s gotta be healthy to vent your spleen once in a while, right? Feel free to DM if you don’t wanna do a publicly. I promise to listen and not judge
OH THANK GOODNESS It looks amazing, and I have both obsessive tendencies and an engineering problem-solving brain. I can wait five weeks, no sweat
$1.92mil per episode, if that’s the case. Netflix, call me, I’ll host darn near anything for a mere $1.25mil per episode
*during sex* "you wanna play some music?" “Sure. Alexa, play Wonderwall. No, stop. Alexa, stop. Alexa, STOP. Alexa, play WONDER. WALL. Alexa. ALEXA. Hey, aLEXa. Alexa. Alexa, play wonderwall. Wait, where are you going?”
I stg I’m going crazy waiting for it to drop on PlayStation. They just keep saying sometime in 2025
I found her so moving, but i had to stop recommending the film. It’s the only movie I’ve ever had people get genuinely mad at me for showing them. Second place was the time I showed my wife Eraserhead, but she wasn’t mad, just confused and a little disappointed (mostly at David Lynch).
It's The End Of The World One Week Birdhouse In Your Soul
I hear the band is great Live
Frank’s 2000” TV is on the list, for sure
Maybe some cold water will help? Or really hot water? I can’t remember which.
There are some nearby churches that have these! Thankfully (sadly?) our personal Little Free Library is pretty popular, and my spouse REGULARLY refreshes the books. I’m in the capital city, so there’s a pretty strong food bank. (Being vague so I’m not easily searchable by randos, sorry!)
I got housed and got a job but have to get work pants and such and first paycheck wont be for a bit. But between this full time gig and side hustles this may well be the last Fundraiser. Until then $20/$400 V:@/JKNotSoBad C:$/JKNotsobad PP:@/comfortingmoo MOX TAX
Is that a term, or are they literally magnetic?
“You don’t get it, i was SURROUNDED by butterflies”
