- While I agree with this generally, I am all too aware that language changes. Sometimes precise clinical terms enter the language with a more generalized meaning. I certainly know some people who pick up on a word and use it often for a few months. "Trigger" was one of those. #language #writing
- Can't have it both ways . . .
- Hard to imagine how this could get any gayer? #throwbackthursday #gayhumor
- There's no #statueoflimitations for unpaid traffic fines. Few counties have the staff to chase after these unpaid tickets. #evil #greedy f*ckwad companies buy up the fines. Then they hound you for money. All legal. Almost no recourse.
- Delightful that the LEGO Group has good people who really care. It reminds me when one of my nieces got a credit card application addressed to her. Age 9. Income $5/week allowance. The response from the bank was very kind. They thanked my niece and asked her to apply again when she turned 18.
- This is an example of using the truth to tell a lie. You might think you're seeing everything, but that's a lie. The customer service people don't have access to anything more than us. They can't call operations or dispatch to find more details. They are locked out, too. #badcustomerservice #lies
- The stone-cold truth is that the middle-class white Christians did not support civil rights despite the many themes of justice in the Bible. Even worse TODAY is that many white Christians are indifferent or actively against minority rights.
- "The answer lies in the fact that there are 2 types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the 1st to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."
- I volunteer at a local food bank weekly. One of the barriers we face in asking the larger community to donate money is the false belief that people are poor because of bad decisions. Most clients only use us for 8 to 10 weeks. Then they get back on their feet and don't need us. #foodbank #donate
- My friend had some old credit cards with a status of "charge off." Bill collector bought the debt and started hounding him. He made a payment. BIG MISTAKE! The debts were too old to collect, but he didn't know. Making a payment brought them back to life. Super #evil #debtcollector #zombiedebt #debt
- I couldn't help but notice that several musicians used a tablet for their music scores. Some also deployed a foot pedal for page-next and page-back . Amazing how many pages of music could be stored on a single device. #music #muscian I was at a Desert Winds Freedom Band concert last Sunday.
- Wow! Keith Haring Lego set. Keith Allen Haring was a prominent artist and activist in the 1980s New York art scene. Haring's work often addressed social and political issues like the AIDS epidemic, Apartheid, and drug abuse. #throwbackthursday www.lego.com/en-us/produc...
- As a member of the Geezer Generation, it's nice to see these old songs becoming popular again. #throwbackthursday
- For #throwbackthursday this cartoon from 2001. It predates the #mmromance *Heated Rivalry* (HBO MAX) based on the books by Rachel Reid. #lgbtmeme #lgbtromance
- So the other volunteer graphic artist retired. I'm taking over. Can I get his files easily? NO with a capital F! This must happen all the time when clients switch graphic agencies. #Adobe only supports files one at a time transfers. No folders. #badstechsupport #badcustservice
- Skies are usually clear in Palm Springs, CA, so these clouds caught my eye. #psp #palmspringca
- In typography, there are 3 marks called a dash. The shortest one is a hyphen. Then there is the en-dash and em-dash. These are the width of the letter n and m in proportional fonts. I've heard a few people say that overuse of the em-dash is evidence of AI generated text. #em-dash #emdash #ai
- The magnificent organ at St. Margaret's church in Palm Desert has a Zimbelstern (cymbal star). It has bells that sound when it rotates. It took me a little effort to find it (lol). #organ #zimbelstern #stmargaretpalmdesert (I was at the Desert Winds Freedom Band concert yesterday.)
- I never tire of riffs on this meme
- No one will ever spot the cell tower in the shape of a palm tree (lol) View from St. Margaret's church in Palm Desert. #cell #celltree #celltower
- Got another "wrong number" scam text. That's when scammers blast out thousands of innocuous text that look like a typo / wrong number. I'm tempted to reply, that's bad. It's bad because it would prove the number is real. #scam #wrongnumber

- From 2016, but still relevant and funny. It's always the conservatives who join the fellowship of the disappearing trousers, right? #gaymeme #gayhumor #hypocrisy
- Today I got a classic "wrong number" scam text. That's when they blast out thousands of texts that appear to be wrong numbers in the hopes that you'll reply. I was tempted to play along, but that's bad. It just proves the number is real. #scam #wrongnumber
- It's important to be a voice against MAGA hypocrisy and cruelty. When you hear "think tank" most people think 8 to 10 brainiacs sitting around a table discussing what research to publish. The Heritage Foundation has over 700 employees. #magavomit #heritagefoundation
- Susan Kare, famous graphic artist who designed many of the fonts, icons, and images for Apple, NeXT, Microsoft, and IBM. (1980s) AND we use most of this iconography to this day in #gamedev #throwbackthursday
- The Onion posts "news in brief" with just a pic and caption - no article. This made me laugh. #gayhumor #gaymemes

- Apple requires updated answers to their age rating questions. This is a good thing. I had to re-make the build for app review. #godot #awesome (This is a silly little game like a certain magic ball of eight but with more answers, bilingual, and occasionally more suggestive. Rated 13+)

- Why isn't anyone asking really basic questions about what motivates Nick Shirley? Doesn't his agenda stink of Alt-Right propaganda? Isn't targeting minority-owned childcare more than a little racist? #minnesota #alt-right #propaganda #justaskingquestions
- None of this new year new me bollocks. Last year I was fabulous and next year l will be fabulous! #happynewyear #abfab #gayhumor

- Seems like I'm seeing books as decoration more and more. As someone in the #writingcommunity this trend does not sit with me.
- This made me laugh although the question is usually from a bot and not an actual person. This question has become a red flag of inauthentic profile. #gaymemes #gayhumor
- This made me laugh.
- In the last sentence, I describe the font used in the tattoo. In an earlier draft, I wrongly wrote "Old English blackface type." A reviewer corrected this to "old blackletter typeface." In next paragraph, Mr. Krueger translates the Latin: "Greater love than this hath no man." #writingcommunity
- My favorite part is when Rudolph goes to #PalmSprings with the gay dentist and the hot ginger bear #gayhumor
- Barbie makes a surprise Christmas Eve visit to Ken and finds Allen wearing Ken's pajamas that she gave him the year before. Did she not notice Ken has a lavender tree? #gayhumor
