Michael Myers from Halloween wearing heels dances and does a somersault and poses/dances as someone drives past hyping a song I don’t know the name of but that is likely very recognizable by sound.

A service bar area from the bartender’s POV (behind the bar) with at least 15 service tickets in view. A martini shaker sit on the rubber mat service area. The container holding sliced fruit garnishes is open (and somehow fruit fly free). On top of the fridges that slide open from the top from behind the bar are 10 or so fruit puree squeeze bottles and a Tito’s hot sauce and open energy drink of some sort. In the background are countless guests wearing soccer jerseys happily doing their own thing. Nightmare fuel, but in this case happier than usual nightmare fuel, I guess. FIFA 2026 BB 🫡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️

[Screenshot of text from someone named Jon with a book emoji in contact info] Jon: The wrestling geek in me loves that T-shirt [blue text]: Why you respond via text rather than the post is weird. I haven't responded for a while. That's not incidental. So, y'know. Fucking stop. [blue text]: I'm around the age now that you were when you taught. And I think about the dynamics and power position and what you did and honestly. Whatever mental mathematics you have to do to tell yourself you're not a creep? Do em. But I don't give a fuck or want to hear about them or from you.

An elegant woman wearing what I assume to be maybe a symbolic astronaut-esque helmet mask thing while wearing an… idk? “modern yet elegant” white gown that trails behind her, and looks like it got caught it a minor brush fire (perhaps re-entry to earth’s atmosphere was bumpy but I am so glad she got to the gala in time OK???) Behind her is a bush hedge with paparazzi lurking over taking photos. Faded words over the hedge and the paparazzi cameras and faces say “ah, we’re force-fed pop culture’s shit” Brighter pink words written over the green hedge, just to the right of the posing posh astronaut lady (I am not gonna Google her, sorry) say “we’re staying up late thinking what the FUCK is this?”

Voice memo transcript: “I guess just the way that I like live life and try to think is like my life is the way that it is because of everything I know and everything I've experienced. So like if I know that there are people who exist whether I agree with them or not or know how they did it or not. If I know that they at least exist. And they do what I want to do and I'm not yet doing what I wanted to do. Like in my mind am I simpleton mind? | just think like I just need to know what they know. You're like it's a formula you know. So if I did what they did and knew what they knew then wouldn't I get the same result?”
Transcript of voice memo: Yeah and don't don't get me wrong. I'm not like trying to convince you. I guess more so just like as a fact like like as a fact there are people who do it as a career. You know so like what do they do? You know? And like if that's a path that you don't want to go down like that's also fine. I just think I just think it's important to like look at facts. You know?

Leen McBeans @leenmcbeans.bsky When I criticize men I'm not saying I don't have issues. Every time I am critical I don't have to pause and let everyone know that I've done my own self reflection and that I'm not without fault. Now the fuck up and move on, bro. I'm sorry she fucked her boss scienceofignorance @scienceofignorance.bsky Follow back When you post shit on social media people will chime in. Thats how this works. Don't like it, don't post. And when you post generalizations about guys bad behavior expect to hear generalizations about women's bad behavior.
Screenshot of a comment from a physician saying ‘As a physician, I'd say about 85% of my male patients don't know how to answer their own medical history and medication list. As soon as I ask my first question, "Do you have any allergies?" They look over to their wife, completely clueless, and she proceeds to answer the rest of the questions in detail. It's gotten to the point where if a man is there and knows all of his own medical history, I feel the urge to say, "Wow! What a big boy you are!"’

Creepy middle aged white guy with a beard dressed like he is cosplaying an old western farm hand with a forced smarmy grin and big brimmed black hat with bright superimposed font over the image saying “ACTUALLY! That’s ephebophilia, not pedophilia. Pedophilia is sexual attraction to prepubescent children” because he wants to argue the semantics of sexually assaulting a small vs larger child instead of the issue of actual harm caused by BOTH types
