Story Concept: A secret society of paleontologists and archeologists who make a pact that when each of them dies the others will go to wild lengths to stage burial circumstances most likely to be preserved, even fossilized to confound the intelligent life of the far future. This includes weird burial objects, suggestive poses, etc.

They make the pact when young & silly, but as they grow old and carry it out it becomes a much more serious & momentous thing. About keeping promises & friendship.

@futurebird I like it already. Make it a project they work on together, meeting up at a cabin that someone's grandparents own, kinda run down but still pretty, and they meet there every year, but as they get older and have relationships and Stuff, it ... gets more complex.

@futurebird Yes! Sounds wonderful! In a ... creepy sort of way.

@skinnylatte @sabcatsilver You so funny one. As my classmates used to say, except in their case it wasn't exactly a compliment. She looks like a sweet happy pupper!

Victoria and Vladyslav got married in May of 2023. They planned a wedding celebration on their first anniversary. But Vladyslav died defending Ukraine in November.

"I didn't know that I will be bringing a wedding bouquet to you this year, not you to me...I didn't know there would be no more photos together," Victoria wrote. She had a photosession on their first anniversary.

Anybody know why it sounds like WW II up here? Who's setting off fireworks IN SUMMER IN THE BAY AREA when we still haven't finished cutting firebreaks around our homes? Are they fucking crazy, or do they just need a sound beating to calm them down and put them quietly to sleep?

sound beatings are those that produce lots of sounds other than those of the actual beating

@glasspusher Are you experimenting with things that go boom! Bc if I find bits of you in my garden in the morning ...

@Tengrain "Prison," dear. Jail is for people sentenced to misdemeanors and crimes that are punishable with sentences not to exceed ONE year. SRS crimes need SRS time. #LockThemUp

I follow food YouTubers from certain countries not err, known for their culinary prowess, and it’s just an anthropological thing at this point. ‘Best recipe ever!! Everyone will love it!!’ And it’s something they would get me uninvited from dinner parties in my part of the world, like if I showed up with unseasoned potatoes.

It really reminds me that people are so different

@skinnylatte Have you ever tried "baeckhoffe?" Also called "laundry day stew," it's basically a bunch of meat-like stuff cooked with potatoes and JUNIPER BERRIES. For those hitherto unacquainted with Juniper berries, may I invite you all to imagine what Satan's bunghole (which might be another name for this herb, or I could be getting it mixed up with asafoetida, which shares the monicker) smells like. You're welcome. It tastes about as thrilling as it smells.

I was told following a lot of people is a sign of inauthenticity

But I like the firehose of content

I'll wade into it and get swept away to parts unknown. Isn't that the point of social media, discovery?

And you can make a list for posters you don't want to miss

Someone says something funny... I feel like following them

Why not? Who cares? Are there magic rules here?

FUCK IT

I'M GOING TO FOLLOW EVERYONE!

(Unless you're a "both sides the same" troll/ idiot, then I'm blocking your ass)

@benroyce I follow lots of people too. I think everyone I follow is interesting in some way, or I wouldn't be following them. In real life, I'm grumpy, shy, socially awkward, and generally unpopular. It amazes me that I can find so many friends in virtual spaces!

@cynblogger Thank you! That is so sweet! @benroyce
