@hell_doe that episode rules. have you gotten to sisko’s monologue in In the Pale Moonlight yet? (ps i don’t even like star trek like that but ds9 might be my fav show. it’s so good)

the episode where gul dukat and sisko end up shipwrecked in the cave together... absolutely insane stuff

watching later seasons of ds9:

@_lizharvey see that’s interesting! for whatever reason there were no goths in my or adjacent years going through HS. a healthy variety of other alt and rural/country ass subcultures but not even a whisper of Type O Neg on the breeze. so i don’t know much about them tbh

@joysprick I agree but goths have always been like this

A lot of drunks on this being a fake costume put on for this video........ when like. Goths are the yuppies of subculture. they love to have an office job that is directly predatory and the justify how it allowed them to fill their home they own with ugly purple furniture.

@_lizharvey everything is reduced to an “aesthetic”, and aesthetics are pretty conceptually thin objects. might associate the aesthetic with some music, but. i guess you can’t swap between aesthetics as quickly if they have actual meaningful commitments

@_lizharvey not to be all, “kids these days…”, but it does seem like a lot of kids these days think of subcultures more like they’re skins for a video game character than anything else, let alone a whole worldview

i know literally no one wants to hear about it ever again but i think gamergate was kind of a big deal

I know this is aphex twin updates but jesus christ

@_lizharvey yeah these numbers and margins make it very clear. this is what people want

Oh if only the media were better. If only their tiktok feed was better then they surely wouldnt be...... interested in his racist rhetoric? What part are they hearing? Building a wall? I guess its not clear enough what hes saying???? People are hearing it and want it ! !

For months MONTHS weve gone on and on about the value of witholding a vote. What a vote for someone endorses. And then when record people turn out to vote For Him im supposed to be like “they dont know any better”?? Whos acting superior here!????

@alechimboldi bro im so scared

@alechimboldi oh for sure definitely a good use of resources and very limited time lol

@alechimboldi jfc right?? i got my hopes up hearing about her ground campaign in PA over the weekend but. dems always find a way to give away any advantages they do have

@hell_doe honestly this happens to me not all the time, but often enough. makes me feel like i’m losing my mind

a top 10 sadie moment has got to be doing something inconsequential and realizing you had a dream about this exact moment many years ago but it didn't make sense at the time

@maiamindel been there a few times but had no idea they couldn’t move the collection around! i always thought displaying the empty spaces/frames was really touching

The Gardner museum is really cool by the way and because they're not allowed to move anything in the collection they just left a bunch of empty spaces for whenever they get the paintings back Also if you're called Isabella your ticket is free

It's insane how the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum in Boston just had the largest art heist ever (600 million!) in 1990 and nobody knows anything about it and has zero leads and the heist was just two guys in fake mustaches showing up as cops and "arresting" the only two guards

@realroborthman yep did exactly that in january

@WelcomeToDot we moved recently but taxes had nothing to do with it—i like government services and i think they’re good. not being able to afford housing, on the other hand, was 3/4 of the reason we left.

@WelcomeToDot oh i used to walk along there several times a day with my dog. would have been keying the shit out of that thing. driving a cybertruck in boston city limits is absolute psychopath behavior

@_lizharvey it’s like a perfect storm of stan culture and the desire people have to tear other people down

@_lizharvey people just do not know how to behave about her at all (or, you know, in general)

A bunch of 35+ year olds are like “is this chpl rn delighting me? Is she a star” and its like YES! AND she runs her mouth and is annoying (compliment)!!!!!!!!

@azninthesun ok so i guess they can mostly tell by dilating the eyes and then looking at them with lights and lenses. that sucks when they do it to me though, poor babies

@joysprick yeah that was my second question!

how do you even tell that a baby needs glasses
