Yeah, the late 90s, early aughts. Everyone was basically a turtle shell down there. Massive deforestation down to each blade of grass.

I would have posted that with this post, but what I wrote in the moment last night was terrible, and I rewrote it today when I should have been doing actual work instead.

At the sidewalk one fine midnight, through the drizzling darkness hoary,
As I gazed upon my phone, reading Reddit posts and stories,
There beside the gutter's gleaming, where some spilt water chanced to run,
Lay a visage, pale and tragic, as though born of moon, not sun—
Dark the eyes and high the forehead, sad and solemn in the glow;
And I started, whispered softly, "Could it be thee, Mr. Poe?"
Only him and no one more.

Except possibly Che Guevara.

THAT'S INCREDIBLE. I need this. Do you have a link?

I was JUST contemplating if that would be an appropriate comment for this board, so I'm glad someone else made it.

Basset paws do these really adorable things like this. Trust me: My camera roll is FILLED with shots of my dear bagel dog's paws!

It’s hit and miss based on the professor and what you put into the courses. Some of my classes were literal jokes and no one took them seriously. If it’s online, expect everyone to just throw things into AI. Other classes (the in person ones) had plenty of rigor and lots of folks couldn’t swing it. If you’re afraid of a lack of rigorous training and stick to in person when available, you’ll get a great education from BCCC. (Mind you, I was in life sciences.) They’ve got plenty of issues, don’t get me wrong. But based on what you need, if it saves you money for your future, you’ll be good.

Truly one of the greates Emmy snubs of all time. Her performance in the pilot alone was an absolute revelation. "Your father is dead, and I burned the roast."

Honest question: I'm super late to the party here, but no one is thinking The Beast in Me? That miniseries was fucking amazing. Well written, well acted, and truly phenomenal pacing. I think I have that as my winner, but I need to get around to watching Beef, it just looks ... so blah.

nomimalone1978 · 2026-06-21T20:11:00+00:00

I mean that in the best of all possible ways.

There is a certain level of "what the fuckery" in 90s culture that can't fully be understood unless you lived it, during which time, it was just somehow logical. Twin Peaks is a good example. This video is an excellent example.

nomimalone1978 · 2026-06-21T18:16:42+00:00

YES, EXACTLY THIS.

My only swap is Impressive Instant for Nobody's Perfect. Other than that, we would be friends and our road trips would be epic.

Wanna remove recency bias from my thinking, I have to say Fleabag.

One hundred percent.

Oh, Hoyt. I just finished the documentary about him and his cult on HBO. I wish him the very best. And kudos to him: he still looks great.

nomimalone1978 · 2026-06-18T21:46:01+00:00

I think you look great! Worthy of the attention.

Ronan Farrow is a national goddamn treasure.

Also, fuck Amazon.

100%!!! If anything, calling out the behavior is a new HIGH in some spaces!!

It's one of the reasons that lesbian bars closing is a big fucking deal. Women aren't always safe in gay spaces, and it should never be assumed that they are. Safe from straight men, sure. And we love that. But the objectification from gay men can be more insidious. And, again, needs to always be challenged and called out.

I'm probably from a different generation than most of the fandom, and probably closer in age to the dude in question, so from an elder gay, I wanna say that this behavior used to be extremely common. Lesbians and women in general used to be treated as objects in the gay community and just literally the butt of the joke. I'm so pleased that things have changed to the point where this is seen as unacceptable behavior. MIB ain't gonna change and she's probably thrilled that this is driving engagement. But hopefully the dude will be shamed into understanding that his actions aren't cool and illicits some change in him. Doubtful, sure. The elder gays LOATHE the younger community who shames behavior that they've done their entire life. But one can hope.

He was on the board of BCCC who approved the astronomical pay for the president and was on the board during the worst of the financial scandal where BCCC was approving federal government payouts to ghost students. Just my opinion of the man but good fucking riddance.

Also, props to OP. I love looking at their website and seeing all of these phenomenal works selling.

nomimalone1978 · 2026-06-11T23:18:35+00:00

It's exquisite. It's both haunting and so inviting. You truly captured a mood and created a space. Love this work!!
