Reading articles makes it very clear that some people think the phrase "in good faith" means "beneficial specifically to me".

So in other news I accidentally busted the coolant line on our air conditioner the other day, but I found a cheap one that was a similar size so I could swap them out in an afternoon.

I don't even correct people on pronunciations anymore; I'll pronounce it the standard way around them so that's there if they want to replicate it, but usually that's all.
macabre = “muh-KAHB”
Worcestershire = “WOOSS-ter-sheer”
omnipotent = “ahm-NI-puh-tunt”
reticent = “RET-uh-sunt”
epitome = “ih-PIT-uh-mee”
myriad = "MEER-ee-ud"
Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word.
It means they learned it by reading.

Let me introduce the crew. *points to enormous muscular guy.* This is Big Dog, we call him that because he's huge, ha ha!
*points to slim average looking guy* and this is Medium Dog. I'm sure you can guess why! That's right — he communes with the spirits of the departed

What do you mean? Without Shark Week, I never would've learned that sharks are capable of self-propelled flight if they close their eyes and focus really REALLY hard! And also that they have X-ray vision! And thumbs!
Every time I say "Shark Week is not a reliable source of information about sharks and regularly shares wrong information,"
some jabroni inevitably says some version of "What do you mean? Without Shark Week, I never would have learned [THING THAT IS NOT TRUE]!"

Recently went back home to the Prairies for a family reunion - and it was great! Stayed with family, excellent, but my post-op uncle with Parkinson's literally does nothing but watch AI vids on YouTube.
AI history. AI cozy jazz vibes. Seaside town cozy AI fucking I don't even know.

Chiitan I love you
Love has never needed permission from labels 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
My emptiness of gender lets me see that clearly.
Anxiety tightens around transgender lives right now.
Why must their chosen bonds still pass through someone else’s gate?
Why is the soul they claim treated as a request instead of a right?

Certain romantic gestures hit differently when you work manual labour…
"Hey babe, happy birthday! I wore this all day as a surprise for you…"
*peels off my shirt to reveal the sweatiest lace negligée you've ever seen, which has rolled completely up under my armpits*

it really is all the same fight at the end of the day because as much as sport bans are about barring trans people from public life, so too are they about denying the bodily autonomy inherent to someone training. "it's illegal for you to throw a ball around with your friends". No it isn't. Fuck you.

If my artist keeps turning out stuff like this I may not survive to see final publication. Seriously. I know Bluesky is gonna compress the hell out of this but just imagine the detail that's there past the compression XD

The question is: on my deathbed, will I wish I had spent another hour - or ten - on the hustle and grind?
...or sitting beside another's, their hand in mine shaking, would I give anything for one more minute with them?
To me, the answer is pretty clear.

Okay it's kinda sloppily edited but I ended up with nearly an hour of footage so I'll probably put some more clips together and up, in time. Motorcycle riding! Enjoy the roads!

Okay I'm gonna gear up and go, and honestly I don't know whether the livestream will work but I'm gonna try it anyway! Let's find out together, life is an adventure.
Anybody wanna go on a motorcycle ride with me?
Thinking of doing a #livestream of one in about an hour.
Why? I dunno. Thought it might be interesting? Beautiful day and we've got some gorgeous roads nearby, figured I'd try to share it…

Well I know I like the prose…and the content…and the author…and…
Hey y'all, so if you know me, you know that my finances are, uh, nonexistent.
So to mitigate that, I'm opening fiction writing commissions. 2 slots!
If you like the kind of prose I write, and would like me to write something for you, please check my comm info here:
