  • I’ve long since had to resign to the fact that my partner and I are in a straight passing lesbian relationship.

    We met online through a reddit r4r post. The second time we met in person she had driven a U-Haul almost 1500 miles nonstop from South Dakota to New York. The first time we met in person when they left her son had a crying fit when he realized that they were leaving and demanded she turn around right now and ask me to be his daddy. We’ve been married 7 years now.

    I look like a “Bear” while she looks like a Butch lesbian. Which is really funny since I’m nonbinary and she’s more masculine than I am lol. The looks people give when they see her first talking about “her partner” then see me and our 3 kids. Priceless.



  • I couldn’t tell you exactly what it is about it, but my Gods migraine pain is the absolute worst for me. I could be at like an 9/10 with my joint pain unable to put even a little weight on like my ankle, and that doesn’t bother me nearly as much as like a 7/10 migraine. I imagine it’s probably got something to do with the secondary symptoms and how inescapable the pain is. But I’m not sure. I do know I wouldn’t wish them on my worst enemy though.

    Right? I’m not a big conspiracy person either. But my Gods between the Epstein stuff, the live tweeting this investigation, and how hard they’ve pushed the left wing violence narrative it’s so hard to look at those messages and not think something is fishy.

    It feels so much like that time the Russians tried to brag about catching some Ukrainian terrorist and stage a photo with all the evidence they seized including 3 random copies of The Sims. Or that time the IDF tried to claim they found this pristine copy of Mein Kampf in a child’s bedroom they bombed. They’ve done so much lying that any info that’s convenient for them I have a hard time believing isn’t a lie.

    The guy absolutely could just have been “Like That” and overshared. I’ve definitely known people like that. But with everything that’s happened I just can’t help but feel like it’s suspicious that the texts just so conveniently happen to just perfectly answer all these questions the administration has in just the perfect way.


  • Yeah no they’re fucking wild. Oh yeah let me just text my partner telling them the location of a note that I totally made admitting to doing it but that I planned on never telling anyone. A letter mind you that was apparently destroyed but not before taking a picture of for fucking posterity I guess? Oh and remember how I was engraving bullets the other day? That thing that you were presumably there for if I’m asking you if you remember.

    I adore the meme that Patel’s FBI fabricated those texts between the alleged Kirk shooter and his partner. Just the fact that they’ve done such a poor job gaining public trust that a bunch of people watching the story ended up like “Okay, I wouldn’t have thought the FBI would fabricate evidence like this before, but Kash Patel has utterly convinced me that they fabricated these texts. Look how conveniently they answer every single outstanding question for the investigation and sound like they were written by a 40 year old federal agent and not a college kid from Utah.”

    It’s objectively fucking hilarious. Especially if the texts are actually real.




  • Nah, Cracker Barrel almost certainly wanted the redesign because that particular sector has been moving trying to avoid the whole “You can tell this used to be a Pizza Hut,” thing for a while.

    They want to be able to just open up a store anywhere with minimal investment. Then if their store is super generic it’s real easy to offload the real estate if that location doesn’t work out. It’s easier for another firm to buy the real estate if they don’t have to spend a bunch of money making the former Cracker Barrel not look like a Cracker Barrel.






  • The problem with just condemning violence “on both sides” is that you are buying into the right-wing framing that violence from the left and the right are in any way equivocal. That the left calling the fascist things the wannabe fascist president is doing fascist is in any way equivalent to the right saying immigrants are invading the country, or that trans people are groomers that are abusing kids, or that homeless people should be euthanized.

    From just a quick PBS article I found with like 5 minutes of looking:

    Based on government and independent analyses, right-wing extremist violence has been responsible for the overwhelming majority of fatalities, amounting to approximately 75% to 80% of U.S. domestic terrorism deaths since 2001.

    “Both sides” do not bear anywhere near the same level of responsibility for the current state of political violence in this country.




  • The more time passes the more convinced I am that we actually do live in a simulation. That our reality is some kind of TV drama that was actually supposed to end years ago but now the writers are running out of ideas.

    We’re out here doing worse versions of decades old plotlines, the stuff that is “new” feels phoned in, we’ve got this huge cliffhanger in the Epstein files that is probably never gonna get resolved. Really feels like the show ships have ended back in 2012.

    I mean I’m shitposting, but still.
