@natecull no, it's friday today, I think they're all trampling each other to get cut price electricals

@sydneyfalk Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio, a fellow of infinite bitching about various things on social media

wait, the "bechdel" test?

...fuck

IÄ! IÄ! GRITTY FHTAGN!

@natalie@masto.ninja what a wonderful world that would be

@natalie@masto.ninja BEIGE

Okay so this is a thing that has now happened

@maple keep it on red, everyone knows the red ones go faster

@maple men without hems

all their clothing frays a bit at the edges

@natalie@masto.ninja @yubikeybot@masto.ninja oh my god you're right that is awful

I love it

@maple @natalie@masto.ninja *arms gesturing wildly at both of you* GIRLS
