False eyelashes as universal symbols of empowerment starts now.

25 feet tall! Agave appears to be preparing to bloom. I wonder if I could turn this into a radio antenna.

@ai6yr How amazing! I’m every bit the amateur gardener, but just love the inherent weirdness of plants. We had neighbors who’d brought a tiny banana plant back from Hawaii, popped it into their front yard, and over some years, it grew to about 20’ high! 🤗

Joe Biden won all of the debates he had with Trump in 2020 but somehow media people are pretending Trump is good at debating.

In reality, Trump is a crybaby narcissist who spirals into childish rage at the slightest confrontation.

He cowered from multiple debates in 2016 because he couldn't respond to tough questions. He was terrified of debating his Republican challengers in 2024. He also choked against Hillary Clinton in 2016.

@mattsheffield Are you suggesting that TFG is a master debater? 😉

Y'all I just made myself feel so old, hubs looked up top 100 music from 2001, 2011, 2021, and today and the amount of music I could recognize decreased by significantly. I recognized probably 70% of 2001 and decreasing as I went on. BUT I blame the internet, I can listen to exactly the kind of music I want with no dependence on the radio, but also I'm old!

@RickiTarr I was actually just thrilled to learn that a band I like, Fontaines DC, is on the list of most favored acts to see at the UK music festivals this summer. They’re currently gigging, youngish, and apparently hot. Definitely would recommend tuning in to bbc radio 6 (bbc sounds app) - plenty of US & UK bands, new & old music.

Some jackhole in the bar played that Kid Rock/Sheryl Crow duet song on the jukebox and Sheryl Crow seems to be a fairly decent person so it probably has to suck that you are now emblazoned digitally through all time singing dulcet poetry to a greasy kitchen mop in a hat who went on to become one of America's most strident publicly-declared neo-Nazis.

FYI, someone just asked me, "Could you please put a CW on those US politics posts?"

I said no sorry,, just mute me.

I don't understand CWing political posts. And that doesn't mean you need to @ me explaining why. I know THEIR reasons, I just disagree with them and won't do it.

I respect CWs for other things, but not politics. Politics is news and people need to be aware of what's happening. It's not gory or violent, it's politics.

Kthxbye.

Hmm, I now have this "Hello Oakland" sticker, and I need to find a place where it could possibly be found by an American tourist but where it also is ABSOLUTELY out of place.

Just to fuck with their day.

@coffeepine Oaklander here (maybe the same Oakland?) apologizing for the excessive stupid of ‘my’ people.

@coffeepine The easiest marks. And if I, a fairly well travelled, world savvy type, saw an Oakland sticker in (you’re in Berlin?) some European metropolis, I’d grab my iPhone for a snapshot. #nerd

Seeking eggplant recipe ideas, as I have one limp eggplant in the fridge and 8 eggplants growing in hydroponics (which may produce a massive amount of eggplant).

So far my repertoire includes 2 dishes:

  1. Eggplant Parmesan (Italian)
  2. Eggplant in Garlic Sauce (Chinese)

(the family hates eggplant, except me, so we never eat it 🤔 )

@ai6yr Ratatouille, for which you’ll need some zucchini & summer squash, maybe worth a trade with a gardening friendly neighbor (I know about those plastic lawn & shrubbery neighbors 👀).

@ai6yr Very weird. People are so confusing. Meanwhile my teeny backyard has two meyer lemon trees, a satsuma orange, a smol, productive granny smith apple tree, a huuuuge fig and a raised box with tomatoes, and a fennel patch for butterflies. 🌱🌿🍋🍏

Seriously heard someone saying they don't listen to many black artists, because they aren't really into rap. Bitch please, feel free to share songs from Black artists from any genre. Here is one of my favorites, if you like this song please check out her other work:
