sigh I’m not happy I’m doing this either; maybe it’s the stress

I know the trope that this is playing on. I’m in collections myself for a lot of money for a partial heart attack scare (monitor your potassium levels!). It just feels icky to me since sexual assault of hospital patients absolutely does happen.

I guess for me it’s one thing to portray a doctor with a cheese grater (or the tens of other absurd variations on this meme) compared to an honestly more plausible sexual assault.

Then the double whammy of states just not helping women who want to carry to term but can’t.

All to say I see what the meme was aiming for, but I don’t love being raped as a punchline.

A quick rundown of The Onion brief if you missed it/it got pushed to the back with all the other bullshit that’s happened.

You’re the one who asked me if I had sex toys. Seems like you’re framing it just right.

Do you talk about your worries and fears to the fleshlight beside your bed? Do you try and plan a future with the magazine you’ve made sticky?

All to say I don’t care what gets your jollies off (legally of course) but there’s a huge difference between self pleasure and building a life with another human being.

Maybe you’ll experience it some day.

Am a woman - can confirm. It’s such a self own it’s laughable. They didn’t want a partner in the true sense to begin with.

Immediately thought of QI

 

Oldie but a goldie; Some Bullshit Happening Somewhere

It’s just so amazingly on point

All while burning huge swaths of land every year as well as pleading guilty to manslaughter for the deadliest fire of CA history.

We’ve got so many large fires raging that inspectors are spread thin; but I’d put good money on a few being caused by poor infrastructure maintained by PG&E

Also my favorite comic! I have a shirt using this still because my friend knew how much I loved the comic!

I wish I could find the full comic but it was basically small inconvenience leads to large rage haha

I appreciate it fellow friendly internet stranger! Luckily I’m on the other side of a lake for this, so not too much worry. Air quality is rough, but I’ve honestly gotten used to it growing up in Cali. Not the first (or likely last) time I’ve had to deal with raining ash. Closest we get to snow in our area haha

 

Taken on iPhone 12, so nothing special, and not recent (as evident by the snow capped mountains). I still come back to this as my favorite picture. I have quite a few CA nature photos that I’ve had the privilege of taking, but this is my favorite.

 

Inspired by a Star Trek meme post. We had some amazing reoccurring actors that you might not have recognized.

 

I listen to the 25th anniversary orchestration more than I should, so I’m always happy to see more!

 

A recent thread reminded me of a video editor I watched back in the day. I recommend checking out the channel if you watched a lot of Clasilsic Who :)

 
 
 
 

I swear I applied the sauce, just not enough. (It's never enough)

 

This scene has always been a favorite of mine, considerably apt in this timeframe.
